There are hiking trails , biking trails and easy walking paths inland and on the beach. Parking is spacious, didn't use the bathrooms but there is also a nice size park for the kids. Military and vets (& family of for that matter) entry is $2.50/person with ID. One of the few places honoring the discount.

The neat thing was that we were taking a bike ride the OWL flew down right in front of us, then flew up into the tree directly above and sit there waiting & posing for me to take his picture for a good time because I had to get my phone out and open the camera. Glad he was patient and didn't turn his back on me. He was a big hoot!!

Great beach, clean, cheap parking. However it does get busy. There is sand lot right next to the…read moremain beach making it super convenient, especially when you have young children it's easy to run back to the car and makes the worst part of a beach day, trekking back to the car with cranky, tired, sand covered kids while carrying enough chairs to fill a home a whole lot easier. If you have AWD there is a secondary lot access allowing you to park your vehicle directly on the beach. The bigger AWD vehicles (Jeeps, pickup trucks) can go all the way to the other end of the beach where the sand is like powder and the water is almost clear blue. The waves on the main beach were nonexistent so a lot of family with younger kids stayed on that side, it was quiet, kids playing in the water and parents chitchatting. On the AWD access it was more lively. Lots of big groups, young and older. Lot of different music, playing beach games. Down at the very end the waves were much bigger and that's where I saw most of the surfing taking place. Great for collecting shells. Lots of cool seabirds. On the main beach there were hermit and Filder crabs (they are too small for their pinch to hurt). Overall a great beach.

It was cool watching the St. Johns River meet the Atlantic Ocean. From what I could see, the only bathrooms available were port-a-potties. There are also very few places to seek shade, so you gotta make sure to bring your sunblock and beach umbrella.

It is $4 to enter the park, and there are other trails to walk as well.

Wanted to find a place to see the Perseid meteor shower, and choose a yurt at the campground. If I…read morehad to choose again, might have chosen a cabin, since it was in the high 90s, and the yurts do not have AC. But even without AC, once the sun went down, it cooled down enough to sleep in the evening, and wake up in the middle of the night to watch the sky from the star-gazing field a short walk from our site. The best part was probably the 4 camp kittens. They were very friendly and funny, and will be for sure going back later in the year, when it is a little bit cooler, to see how they kittens are growing.

Cabin had electricity, ac, a mini fridge & freezer, a double bed, a single bed, a microwave & overhead fan. It was comfortable and clean! The folks who work at the campground; Charleen, Kelly & Rudy were just the most welcoming & warm people we've come across in a while. Check in/out was super easy, firewood that you purchase is delivered right to your cabin. Theres a shop with lots of things if you forgot anything & really pretty reasonably priced. Plus there's dvds you can just check in or out for free. Theres an adorable patio off the main building where we had a blast playing battleship and shuffleboard. We also ordered food. I'm from Pennsylvania and a good cheesesteak is far and few between it seems down south.. this place has the best cheesesteak I've had in years. It was hot, greasy & packed with flavor. Food was 10/10. Also; the bathrooms were surprisingly clean & it was a rainy day/night. Hiking trails are a 5 minute drive. Theres a dog park at the campground, that was awesome. The only semi negative thing I could say is the cabins are pretty close to each other so there's not a ton of privacy. If you're looking for an intimate camping experience, that also feels really safe, this is the perfect place. We will definitely back and I do HIGHLY recommend! Thanks again for a great 5 star experience!

For the 2026 Fourth of July holiday, our family reserved adjoining RV sites and a nearby cabin at…read moreOcean Grove RV Park in St. Augustine Beach, Florida. One member of our group confirmed on June 30 that all of our reservations were paid in full. When we arrived on July 2, we were told by the general manager, April, that we had not "locked in" our reservations and that one of our adjoining sites had been given to another guest. We disputed this because our reservations had already been paid. Another employee, Ingrid, reviewed our reservation and stated that the site showed as paid. At that point, April ended the discussion and informed us that the adjoining sites were no longer available. As we attempted to explain our documentation, April said we were being disrespectful and called the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office. When the deputy arrived, we explained that we were willing to move our RVs but needed the gate code to maneuver them out of the park. The deputy confirmed that we had not been given the information needed to move and instructed the manager to provide it. Because we had receipts showing our reservations had been paid, we also requested an immediate refund before leaving. The deputy suggested that refunding our payment would be the quickest way to resolve the situation, and the refund was processed. The entire experience was stressful and disappointing, especially after planning our family holiday around adjoining campsites. We expected better communication and customer service, particularly after our reservations had been confirmed and paid. Seeing the Good Sam affiliation displayed at the park made the experience even more disappointing because it did not reflect the level of professionalism we expected.
