Pretty location but limited for pets

Fort Clinch State Park

This park is beautiful. to get to our campsite we drove three miles slowly under giant oak trees draped with Spanish moss. the canopy tour! The campsites are spacious. I had to put a tag on our vehicle stating I had a dog at my campsite (this might be a standard Florida thing).
the bathrooms were clean and nice but was a large room with individual stalls and no pets allowed. It’s not shocking rule but something to plan for. I always stress about leaving my dog tied up alone even for a short time. I travel solo so these are things I consider when I pick a site. if you are traveling in a group this isn’t an issue.

the biggest let down was that he was not allowed on their beach. lots of signs stating no pets allowed. I wish I could have walked along the beach or even looked at it but had to decide to stick with my buddy instead. The good news is that the main beach outside of the park is dog friendly so we drove there and played on the beach but keep in mind the beach can be pretty crowded.

I enjoyed my trip and would return but this wasn’t the most friendly state park campsite we have traveled to.

Great camping experience

Fort McAllister State Park

I loved how dog friendly this place was. when I checked in I asked if it was ok for me to bring my dog in with me bc I didn’t want to leave him in the car. They told me sure and that he could even go into the museum if we wanted. So friendly. The campsites are close to one another but very nice. The camp hosts friendly and visible, as a solo female traveler this was comforting. The bathrooms were four individual rooms to a building complete with a shower and toilet and tons of space. I was so happy I could bring my boy in with me. He is still young and I stress leaving him tied up alone unsupervised. Even for a short time.

the park had beautiful trails and such a great vibe. we will be back.

be aware of the raccoons which have zero cares 🤣🤣🤣🤣 or fears and if the wind blows from the inland the biting gnats are HORRIBLE. but this is the case with any coastal location.
