FLORIDA STATE PARK CAMPING CABINS

By  Mike Miller  Updated October 7, 2022

Florida State Park camping cabins are a way to enjoy state parks without needing a tent or camper.

Sometimes an avid camper just yearns to get off the floor of a tent.  Or they may get tired of the monthly payments of an RV, the hassle of storing it, and the maintenance.

But camping fever is still in their blood, and camping cabins may be the answer.

20 Florida State Parks have comping cabins, and they range from rustic to modern. 

We provide a location map and contact information for all these parks later in this article.

They may not be as fancy as most chain motels or hotels, but you can enjoy being in a quiet state park.

Enjoy a cabin nestled in the hills of Central Florida where you can lounge by the fireplace, or kick back and relax on your cabin’s deck in the Florida Keys.

No matter what the destination, staying in a cabin will provide endless opportunities for recreation and relaxation.

Some of these cabins are as well equipped as the average motel room in the outside world.  Others are a bit more rustic and primitive.
