Exploring Suwannee River Campground Locations

By Elsa English


A Florida State Park is located at the junction of the Withlacoochee and Suwanee rivers which then lead to the Gulf of Mexico. While beautiful scenery, there is also intense history in one area near the Suwannee River Campground. This history includes longstanding mounds of earthly destruction dating back to the Civil War.

Whether camping out at the state park or visiting the local Suwannee Music Park and Campground, individuals will find everything necessary for a successful camping experience. Both parks recommend individuals call ahead for reservations and availability. When planning on camping at the Music Park, it is often best to make reservations well in advance as several large music festivals occur at the park each Spring and Summer. As the overflow campers often camp at the State park, it is also a good idea to book either location in advance where possible.

Each trail loops around woodlands, many with panoramic views of the area. Different trails offer the opportunity for boating, fishing, hiking and picnicking. Nature abounds with flora and fauna as visitors view a variety of birds, butterflies and honeybees in natural habitats, and occasional exhibits. Located only thirteen miles from Live Oak, Floria, travelers will find easy campground and park access off U. S. Hwy 90.

Whether a dedicated visit or passing through the area, a visit to Suwanee State Park can often be a fun one. The park offers daily, weekly, weekend and festival camping. It is always good to call ahead for availability and reservations as the campground can fill up quickly and is also home to several music festivals throughout the year.

At most campgrounds, individuals are going to find everything necessary for a great night's lodging. This includes cabins, ample tent space and RV parking areas with hookups, rest rooms, and showers. There may also be campgrounds in the area which are more primitive for those who are a bit more daring, or just prefer a rougher camping experience.

Several music festivals occur at the Suwanee River Music Park and Campground each year. This park is a one-of-a-kind music park and premier campground on the banks of the Suwanee River. Visitors to the area may also want to note that this park offers live music during the week at the Music Hall as well as an amphitheater in addition to the many annual events which take place at the park.

Whether looking for a simple family camp out, a music festival, a New Year's eve party or a place to relax while watching bats and birds, star gazing or riding the river, this northern part of Florida has a lot to offer. Individuals seeking longer, or frequent stays may want to check out the many custom built cabins for sale. Those traveling by RV will be happy to find local RV parking areas complete with hookups, restaurant and country store at the Music park.

A good way to determine the best places to stay whether visiting the area for the first time, or a return visit, is to research any lodging of interest online before making a reservation. Visiting other locations while spending time in the area can provide insight as to whether to return to the same campground, or if another may be more convenient.
