Florida Campgrounds
Our campgrounds in
Florida are located on several beautiful and historic
springs, and offer fantastic swimming opportunities. Each
of these campgrounds are located on the Ocala National
Forest, about 90 minutes from both Jacksonville and
Orlando. Both the
Juniper Springs and Alexander Springs campgrounds were
recently voted one of the top 100 Family Campgrounds in the
United States!
These campgrounds are
centrally located for day visits to many of Florida's most
desirable attractions. World famous Silver Springs is only
31 miles away. Other attractions in the Orlando Area,
including Disney World, MGM Studios, Sea World, and Universal
Studios, are an approximate 60-90 minute drive, while Daytona
Beach and its speedway are a short a 45-minute drive
away.
