Chassahowitzka River Campground i USA

This place isn't designed for large vehicles! The main office is situated further down the road where large recreational vehicles (RVs) can make a turn. However, you'd need to return to the main road to make a U-turn to access the camping spots. We mistakenly visited the office first, despite the warning in their welcome message. We accept the blame for this. We were initially assigned to site 10, supposedly suitable for a 45 ft vehicle. It's not! Perhaps if you position your vehicle's rear into the trees and have it on the road...maybe. But fitting a 40-footer is impossible due to the 120-degree driver side back in, nestled between camping sites on a curvy road with trees and other sites opposite. I contacted the office and they provided me with a new spot. I had to navigate their narrow, tree-filled road, and had to make a multi-point turn at least once. Spot 33 posed a similar problem. To have any chance of fitting, I would've had to return to the main road for a U-turn, but two trees at the road corners block larger trailers. Plus, the journey back to the main road is a 3-4 mile trek down a narrow residential road. If you own a 40 ft fifth wheel, opt for a pull-through or skip this place. Large vehicles should proceed with caution in this park. They really ought to remove some trees.

Campground was awesome. Plenty of kayaks to go around that you could rent for $40/day. General store had just about anything you'd need that one could have forgot to pack, and then some. Bathrooms were clean, but the A/C wasn't working or, was off in the mens room. They had a leisure room for things like shuffleboard, bag toss etc. We will stay again.

This was a one night, pit stop for us. The RV part was more of a after thought for weekenders as I assume most of there business comes from the boat launching area (truck/trailer parking was 5x larger than the campground).

Partially paved single lane road in and out of tiny parking lot where you register at boat ramp, office, snack shop. Pull-thru site was so narrow driving thru was impossible. Had to reposition RV several times to ensure slides had clearance. Water faucet was 3” above ground and had an unremovable filter that prevented using pressure regulator. And then we left.

We camped here back in January and, although it was pretty cold that week, we were able to get out and enjoy the river. This park has a small, state park feel and seems to be well managed. They have a small camp store and offer kayak/canoe rentals. We canoed down the river and were able to see numerous manatees. They were all around our canoe!! We didn't use the laundry or restrooms, but were told they were clean and nice. We have a large (43') fifth wheel and were able to get into our pull-through site fairly easily, but there aren't too many sites that would fit big rigs. We would go back to this campground.
