Oh thats right the governor delisted the town right? I couldn't recall which small town up there it was. Lots of funny business with town money and employees seemed to be mostly related.

A pretty good article about the fiasco.
and another one on Hampton just North of Waldo.

301 is fine just watch out for the speed trap in Lawty. Keep to the speed limit.

I don't believe these are active anymore since the Alachua County Sheriff has taken over policing that area. I don't believe Waldo or Lawtey have their own police force now.

Google and GPS has us coming in on US301 off of I-10 west of Jacksonville. Is this a good road?

Yes, 301 is an excellent road on that stretch. We take it often. Instead of running the I-295 bypass at Jacksonville to I-10, we like to jump off I-95 just over the FL border and run west on 200 to 301. Less traffic...

Thank you

We are going to Rainbow Springs from Skidaway Island. Pulling a 38' 5th wheels. Anyone have any suggestions for the best route to take.

Have no idea where your starting point is. But believe you will be on I-75 near the end. Get off at Rt40 west. Travel to SW 81 st rd turn left and a couple of miles to Campground.

You going to the Rainbow Springs CG? There is a low clearance bridge. I think it's on FL 328. It's right before US 41 where 328 goes under RR tracks. I don't recall the clearance tho

Nope it's on 40, you can see it, but not too clearly right here: GMaps

Wait, google maps even show a street view: underpass. And you can see the clearance: 14' 1"
LOL this technology is getting impressive

And the CG i

I have no idea where skidaway springs is.

You turn off 40 before you get to that underpass. Rainbow springs campground is on SW 81 road, The same road the Dunellon High school is.

Yeah same here, 7 inch clearance is a little tight but we made it under with a spotter at 2 mph

As a matter of fact that was the day we bought our 5ver in Ocala. Our first fiver tow
