Why RVers stay here

Anastasia State Park is a Florida state park campground on Anastasia Island, a few miles south of St. Augustine's historic district. Its 139 sites sit under a mature live oak canopy inside a maritime hammock, with four miles of undeveloped Atlantic beach, tidal creeks for paddling and the oldest city in the country ten minutes away. It suits nature-first campers with rigs under 38 feet who want beach, birds and paddling by day and a 450-year-old town by night.

Sites have water and 20/30/50-amp electric (amperage varies by site) but no sewer; a dump station near the entrance is free for registered campers. The published rate is $28 per night plus tax, a $7 nightly RV utility fee and a $6.70 reservation fee. Florida residents book 11 months out and nonresidents 10, with new dates opening daily at 8 a.m. Eastern; peak winter and spring dates go fast. October through April is the comfortable season, while summer brings heat, humidity and biting insects. The trade-off is simple: you give up sewer and big-rig pads for a setting no private park can match.

Our verdict

Book Anastasia if you have a rig under 38 feet and value a shaded natural setting, paddling and St. Augustine over resort comforts. Skip it if you need sewer at the site, a big-rig pad or a monthly snowbird stay.
