What Guests Are Saying
Huckleberry Campground is praised for its cleanliness, well-maintained facilities, and friendly camp hosts who take pride in their work. The beautiful setting by the river offers opportunities for relaxation and outdoor activities, making it a favorite for families. However, some guests noted noise from nearby logging trucks and felt that the pricing was high, especially regarding additional fees for electricity.

Make sure to spend some time wading in the river. Sitting a folding chair in the river is also very enjoyable.
First week of August, the River was a bit low to raft from the bridge back to the campground without a fair amount of paddling in the last half of the run. July would be better. Camp hosts were very helpful and friendly.

Manager, Camp Host says 3:pm is check-in…. Site was vacant the night before makes no sense!!! State Parks says if it is clean you are welcome. I think the Camp Host needs directions from management that the person renting the space is a guest and should be welcomed as such. I understand that if the site is not cleaned or mowing is needed we do our best to have it ready by 3;pm. But if it is ready to go the camper should be welcomed as a guest.

Way to expensive! We paid less at South Rim Grand Canyon for full hook-up!
The location is great, right on the river, camp hosts' keep it very clean, toilets especially clean and the grass nicely mowed.
Warning of the log truck starting at 4:00 AM, very loud and a lot of them.

My family and I were very pleasantly surprised by how nice Huckleberry Campground was. It's clear the camp hosts take great pride in keeping everything clean. The vault toilets were the nicest I've ever seen. They didn't even smell bad inside. The setting -- right on the banks of the St. Joe -- is beautiful, and the campground is surpassingly well cared for. Thank you.

The restrooms were not only spotless and well stocked, they actually smelled pleasant!
Campsites were clean and the grass watered. The camp attendants were pleasant and helpful.
