Planning a trip to Tampa, Fl the week of Thanksgiving. Plan on leaving Friday afternoon before Thanksgiving from Myrtle Beach, SC. Figure to drive no more than about 6 hours. Anyone know of locations in southern Ga, northern Florida along I 95 we could stop for the night. Read there is no overnighting at Ga or Fl. rest stops. Not ruling out Walmart, etc. but would like to stay as close to the highway that night as possible. Thanks for the info.

Give these guys & gals a call may be a potential spot for an over-night stop:Camping World JacksonvilleMarkiemark:C

About 40-45 miles south of the Fla./Ga. border, in White Springs Florida is Lee's Country campground. They seem to "specialize" in overnights, and driving by , it looks O.K. It is only .8 mile off the interstate. There is gas and a McDonald's at the exit also. (We spend our winters at another campground in the same town.) Here is a link: Lee's Country Campground

Nice state park 8 miles from 95. Only downside is the cable tv is inoperative right now.Crooked river state parkRight outside Kings BAy submarine base

We have stayed in several Florida rest stops overnight. Not camped but just pulled over and went to sleep...maybe 6 - 8 hours max.

This dry camping spot on the old Tampa Bay bridge was a good one. It's on the Southend of the old bridge.

Dry camping in this Georgia state park was very pleasant.

Sorry it's been a few years since our trip and I don't remember the parks location in Georgia but it was a great place.
