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.

The location is perfect for just relaxing or heading out to trail heads. The leaves were just turning, and the campsite and surrounds are full of deciduous trees. The campsite was immaculate, yet again, and the outhouses were the cleanest I've ever seen - freshly painted and peppermint-scented, and cleaned every day. The camp hosts were lovely.

It is remote but did have wi-fi next to the check-in area which was helpful. It was quiet and our site backed up to the river. We loved it!

Excellent spaces with river access. Very clean facility and bathrooms. Reasonable parking space in all sites but make sure to use the site map if additional parking is needed. No cell service which is what I am looking for in a camping experience.

We loved our time at Huckleberry Park. The spaces were so nice with your own private grass area, picnic table and fire ring. All was very clean and friendly hosts were available.

Excellent Camp Host Team, all staff are very helpful, supportive and friendly. Facilities well maintained and restrooms, campsites, and grounds are clean and inviting. Beautiful location along St Joe River and easy access to surrounding mountain roads and trails. Only wish it was another 500 yards away from main road, commercial trucks are sometimes loud in early morning hours but ear plugs solve that one. One of the best managed campgrounds I have stayed at in recent years.

We were not familiar with the reservation process, the park ranger was ever so helpful, kind, courteous. We have stayed at Huckelberry campground many times in the past, it has been and always will be our go to camp ground. Outstanding fly fishing and just nice quite time.
Camp Hosts were great also.

We really enjoyed the stay at Huckleberry Campground ! It was clean, quiet, beautiful with helpful and friendly staff. We did have a difficult time getting registered! The online registration was very frustrating for us and others! We were unable to tell which sites were reserved and had to change sites because of this. With so many seniors camping and not all are computer savvy, it would be much less complicated to physically register when we arrive . It also leaves the opportunity to stay longer should we wish. Please bring back physical registrations on site!
