Found this location by searching the web for locations near Rainbow River, Florida to camp and boy it was a find. We intended to stay at another campground but didn't book in time. We showed up late Friday evening and the owners were more than helpful: made us feel right at home. There was nothing but beautiful country to look at as far as the eyes can see. Your surrounded by sky and forest. At night the stars shine so bright that you could stay up all night glazing at them. It's peaceful, quiet and clean. My family rented two RV campsites, we enjoyed the trails, newly built pool, bike riding, hiking and spotless and clean bath houses. We went Saturday to go tubing down Rainbow River. It's approximately 20 miles out, but the drive was delightful. Beautiful country to view and NO traffic. We decided to check out that other campground. I would have been so dissatisfied if I had booked at that location. (We are all more than disappointed in our State campgrounds.) I am so glad we are last minute planners. We did however enjoy the river and will experience it again. It was great fun watching my family make it down the four hour trip in the cold springs on a tub. We were blessed with more than we could have asked for in a campsite. I look forward to more family time and future visits here. Thank you to the owners for such a pleasant experience. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We absolutely loved this place! While there is not a lot of the "extra" kid type things to do, there is a playground and the kids loved checking out everyone's horses. If you're looking for a place to get out to the middle of nowhere, look at the stars, enjoy the country, and not worry about city life, this is your place. Goethe State Forest is across the street and we enjoyed walking the trails. The onsite store was a big plus and we enjoyed every one of the staff members. The only drawback was the ticks we brought back from the walk in the forest and then followed us home. Just be careful and you get rid of them quick. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is, by far, the best campground that I have stayed in. The sites are huge, with a wonderful concrete drive leading to each site. Its way out in the country, across from the Goethe State Park. They have wonderful facilities for horses, so you can vacation with your horse, and have 120 miles of trails right across the road. The stars are bright at night, as there are no city lights nearby. The place is great for bicycling, hiking, trail riding, horse events, and just for quiet getaways. The folks here treat you like family. The campground is pristine. Its beautifully maintained and clean. The campground is new, and is just gorgeous. The horse stalls and facilities are wonderful. You can take care of your horse yourself, or for a fee, they will take care of it for you. If you don't ride, but would like to, there is a trail ride group up the road. There are beaches not too far away, as well as quaint small towns. There are rivers and lakes with boat rentals. A major city is within 85 miles for serious shopping, theme parks and other city stuff. This place has it all! Call them for more info, or go to their website. You'll be glad you did. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

If you transport horses, this is the campground for you. Its a no frills CG but makes up with natural beauty. 100 acres of farm land with (horse) trails leading to a state park plus horse corrals and a barn to exercise your horses. There are no restrooms/showers or pools but the quietness, the relaxation and natural beauty that surrounds you well makes up for it. Bring plenty of food/necessities since its a trip into town. At night you can unwind by a campfire! The owner is an amazing woman whom immediately will become family. The sites are just right, no shade, but you will feel comfortable and secure. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We spent two weeks here and really enjoyed it. The park is well laid out and the sites are spacious and mostly private. The new landscaping from when the campground was re-done in 2009 has grown in nicely. The old section (A) of campground up by the office was not particularly nice looking and would not be our choice for a spot but the lower loops are great. The sites around the back side of Loops B & C are probably the best sites - #6 to #21 - as they back up to the woods. It was wonderful having full hookups in a state park! There are launch ramps for kayaks and canoes near the office and wheeled dolly's are available for use. Campers have free access to both the Head springs and the tubing area. Dunnellon is an interesting town to visit with shopping and restaurants and is within about 10 miles from the campground. This park is on our return to list! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Park was OK. Very few trees at campground, but was told they just re did it. Few fire ants. Nice staff. Tubing is great. Great for photographs. Water on a hot day was delicious. Long walk to river (forgot my bike). Will be back next year. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Because we are late planners, we found another campsite for our family weekend getaway to tube down Rainbow River, Florida. We didn't stay here by circumstances of being late planners and thank god we didn't. We decided to check out the campsites here to see what we missed out on and hopefully book for the next tubing trip. I would have been so dissatisfied if I had booked at this location. My family and I are all more than disappointed in our State campgrounds. NOT CLEAN, it looked like a dumping ground. RV's are on top of each other, within arms distance. The rangers were grumpy and rude. The landscaping was unsightly and in direct sun. The camping spots are located right there as you drive into the park. It look like a low grade trailer park. People looked unhappy and mad. Kids were crying and people were loud. The pool was broken, empty and looked like it hadn't been touched in years. There were weeds growing out that were as big as bushes. Bathrooms were nasty. I am so glad we are last minute planners and missed out on this place. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Even though we didn't have horses they were kind enough to offer us a horse site in order to accommodate our 40' motorhome. The bathrooms/showers were clean. We loved it here. The sites are spacious but with no shade. There is 50 AMP hook ups and water but no sewer. The charge for the sewer dumping is $5.00. We had my parents with me so they charged us for the night senior discounts. Its beautiful and quiet here a must if you are in the area and enjoy nature!!! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Well maintained site. Half price for over 65 or handicapped Florida residents. Spacious gravel sites, well drained. Everyone we met was friendly. Host campers well informed. Extremely quiet. Some sites reserved for horse trailers. Also facilities for day equestrians. Lots of horse trails. One of the best kept secrets in the Ocala area. We will camp here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
