Camped in a tent in site #10. Most sites are shady and all but 2 handicapped sites are packed sand. All sites on the left as you enter slope toward the Halifax River so leveling would be needed. All sites have fire ring/grill, water, and 20/30/50 amp power. Campground has two newer bathhouses and an older one in the back of the loop. All were very clean but we did go during the week and not on a weekend and not during bike/race weeks. Don't know what they would look like after approximately 800 people went through them. There are no washers or dyers though there are hookups for them at the bathhouse. There is a small parking area in campground for extra cars/trailers and a nice playground for kids. They have an inside meeting area for ranger talks or can be rented for events. Campsites were all private with nice growth between sites. Most are very narrow so there are only a few a big rig would fit in. This was a reconnaissance mission to see if our 35 ft would fit here and it would but on less than 10 sites offered. The park offers a short hiking trail but it is also about 1.5 mi if you walk to the end of the park from the camping loop. Fishing is the main thing here as we saw several local fishermen there. The park's museum has closed and there is a store with essential items (ice cream) and there are canoe and kayak rentals, though they are expensive $20 hr. You can bring your own boat to launch. We traveled nearby to Bulow Plantation and North Peninsula Beach where swimming is available since there is none in Tomoka.
