There are also a number of wilderness campsites suited for tent campers.  The wilderness campsites are scattered throughout the 200 wooded acres.

Ginnie Springs is a pleasant private alternative to Florida State park camping and busier more heavily visited Florida tourist attractions.

The wilderness campsites are available on a first come first served basis. 

Many of these camping sites are on the Santa Fe River or on the spring. 

The Santa Fe is a famous Florida river that disappears underground for a significant stretch of its total length.

Most wilderness campsites have a grill and a picnic table, and running water available on some sites.

There are also two small cottages on the site.  Reservations for a cottage should be made well in advance.

The crystal-clear water in the springs gives tremendous underwater visibility.  Scuba diving and snorkeling are very popular. 

The inventor of SCUBA, Jacques Costeau, even made a visit and was impressed with the clarity of the water.
