DuPuis Management Area Campgrounds
Free camping is rare in Florida so we had to check this place. There are two campgrounds. Family Campground, accessed from Gate 1 on Route 76 and a mile down a sandy road, is for tents and popups only. Equestrian Campground, at Gate 3, is opened to all campers. It’s close to Route 76 so there’s some traffic noise. Both campgrounds are really nice with lots of shade and plenty of room. Sites are not marked and may not have tables. Equestrian Campground has more amenities including restrooms, showers and a dump station but no potable water for filling RV tanks.
The showers and restrooms are not accessible. The ground is soft and sandy which makes pushing around difficult for wheelchair users.
The website doesn’t mention a restriction on RVs at Family Campground so that's where we headed first. The host asked us to move to Equestrian Campground. This photograph is of the Family Camp. Many of the campsites have a nice view of a little lake which sits in the center. Camping

Those are my old stomping grounds. I used to pull hunting quota out there. It sure has grown up since then.
ReplyDeleteIt's still pretty laid back and peaceful. Super nice for a free campground. It would be a great place to hang out for a week or so. Hope you and John are staying warm and having fun where ever you are!
