Got new fur baby and now have to make change in vacation

Most Florida State parks are pet friendly, you might want to check Florida State parks site online for one near you.

Not real close, but a couple of places come to mind. One is Fort DeSoto, a Pinellas County park with a campground on the Gulf at the base of Tampa Bay. Be sure to book the dog section.

Another waterfront option on the Gulf is at Turtle Beach, a Sarasota County park and small campground. A bit pricey and hard to get a res.

Another is Oscar Scherer State Park just south of Sarasota, though not waterfront. Lots to do in the area...the beaches are close, there's kayaking at the park, the Ringling Museum, Mote Marine Lab, much more.

You might call the campground and ask, I have done this with my Collies. The campground might also be able to suggest other pet friendly campgrounds in the area. Goldens are such love sponges. Congratulations on the new addition.

+1. I have a pit bull, and I fully understand places prohibiting him. Most have been happy to point me to different camping spots in the area that will accept him. You just have to ask nicely.

Congratulations on the new baby! Sorry can't help with the camping.

I can't answer your question, but congrats and thanks for adopting him. :)
