Tallahassee

We spend our winters in Sopchoppy about 26 miles south of Tallahassee near the coast. Ochlockonee River State Park and the Sopchoppy City Park are both very nice and are waterfront. At St. Marks (18 miles from Tallahassee) is Newport CG, a county owned park on the St. Marks River and across from the entrance to the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge. At Panacea (30 mi from Tallahassee)there is a private campground, the Holiday. It is on the water at Ochlochonee Bay. In Carrabelle (about 40 miles away) is the Ho-Hum, a great favorite with snowbirds. Coe Landing, a county-owned park is on Lake Talquin (about 15 miles west) and also a nice place. We used to stay at Big Oak for football games and it was ok for two nights but I wouldn't want to spend a week there. lizzie

We go to Tallahassee all the time to visit our son. We have started staying at the Moose Lodge. $10.00 a night. I doubt you can stay for 2 months. We have stayed 10 days before. They have 30 amp and water and a dump station. Had to hook up after 7 days to dump but really easy in and out of the site so no big deal. You have to be a Moose member to stay there. I believe the Elks Lodge has RV sites too. We feel both rv parks in Tallahassee are WAY overpriced for what you get, but they do have a corner on the market and can charge what they want.

If I didn't need to actually be in Tallahassee I'd stay at Myron B. Hodge City Park in Sopchoppy (inexpensive, FHU) or Holiday CG on Ochlockonee Bay (Panacea, FHU). Neither of these are near anything; the nearest supermarket is Walmart in Crawfordville. BTW, North Florida isn't exactly toasty in wintertime although it's certainly a lot warmer than Ohio.

yeah, I don't know that I would want to stay at Tallahassee RV park for a couple of months, unless you need/want to be in Tallahassee proper. As several have mentioned the parks at St Marks and Panacea would be more to my liking. Tallahassee RV park is in a city, and is very convenient to a really nice Publix, golf and shopping. Downtown isn't too far either. The downside is the spaces are close together and the pool will not be useable in the winter. It is a nice commercial park that appears as a commercial park. I prefer state and COE parks with some space and plants between the sites. I have stayed there as part of a group and we used the clubhouse and the pool, and it was a nice place, just not my normal choice.
