we are traveling in a 34’ class A, w/toad. the access road in looks intimidating but was no problem. we liked everything about this park except the one thing that stopped us from giving it 5 stars.....their sites generally are MUCH bigger than they describe. I had to say our rig was only 28’ long just to get a reservation, and when we got there we were able to nose our toad right in front. the site would have easily taken a 40 footer. many of the sites were like that.

Like all of the Florida State Parks where I’ve stayed, this is beautiful and a great value. It’s secluded from nearby Ormond and Daytona but close by. It’s an older park. The roads are sand. So are the campsites. It would be hard for a big rig to fit here. The sites are small, and there are lots of oaks and other obstacles. The bathrooms were clean. Several toilets were out of service. Some of the laundry machines were broken. There’s a nice little outpost shop. Kayak rentals, etc. A nice little place.

Such a great find. Sites are easy in and out and wooded for privacy. Walk to general store and boat ramp is lovely. Bathroom clean and nicely located throughout the park Jyst a quick drive to Ormond Beach which is a great seaside area. We will return here for more area exploration.

Tomoka State Park is a gem of a campground. I spent a week here 4/9 to 4/16 2022. The sites are well screened from each other by old growth palm trees and vegetation so it is hard to tell if anyone else is around. The Campground is not suited for big rigs because of the narrow roads but that is a plus.The facilities are dated but well maintained and there is plenty to do in and around the campground. The staff has always been very friendly and helpful on all of the occasions that I have stayed there, starting back in 1981. T-Mobile cell service is available. There is a camp store with canoe and kayak rentals, a public boat ramp and groceries.

Nice state park with the usual amenities. The roadway within the campground is dirt, in pretty good shape but narrow. Sites are also dirt (which becomes really sticky mud when it rains), close together but with a vegetation buffer between and not level. Each site has a fire ring and picnic table, 30 amp electric and water, a dump station is available with water but does not have a hose bib connection for flushing tanks. Big rigs will have trouble maneuvering into most of the sites. Staff friendly but not overly helpful. This really could be a great campground with just a little updating and sprucing up. For the money it's not bad but not great either.

I thought all Florida state parks had a few walk up sites. I was wrong. All sites at Tomoka are reservable.

Beautifully maintained state campground. Very clean bathrooms with hot showers revising hooks and benches for convenience. Delightful well stocked camp store by river with canoe rentals. Easy access. Sites are close by with heavy vegetation. Lovely to walk. Would definitely stay again. We have a 20’ class B fully self contained. Sandy flat and level.

Nice wooded sites-private but narrow. Sand roads- great for biking. Clean bathhouses. They have the cutest store called The Outpost, where you can buy a cold beer, ice cream, food, essentials, play a board game or rent kayaks. Beautiful dock area- great place to chill in rockers & watch the sunset!! Disappointed the ranger didn’t mention this jewel, nor did he do anything other than give us a rough map of campsites & direct us to our site. Another minute of his time could have offered us highlights of the park’s amenities.

Plenty of foliage at this one, lots of sandy back ins separated by rows of trees and vegetation, with lots of canopy and shade. Abundant animal life, raccoons, birds, reptiles, snakes and a cacophony of insects, so if close to nature appeals, this place is gorgeous. Great staff, and a funky outpost that rents kayaks, cooks hamburgs and pours a craft ale.

Make sure you go to the camp store/outpost. They have food service and serve a local brewery's beer on tap. They also rent canoes and kayaks. They have a large outside patio area so it's a wonderful place to sit in the mornings or evenings.
The park is only about 6 miles from Andy Romano Beachfront Park. We were in a Class B so that was a great place for us to park it and enjoy the beach.
The Park Rangers are very friendly and helpful. The park does allow walk-ups. There are 3 restrooms, two have laundry facilities and appeared to have been remodeled so they are a little nicer but all were clean. No laundry items at the area but can be purchased at the camp store/outpost. Good OTA TV reception
Sites along the Old Dixie Hwy get a lot more road noise.
