Andrew Hunter
For Bulow RV Resort: Campground Name: Bulow RV Resort
Location: Flagler Beach, FL
Overall Campground Rating (1-5): 3
Maneuverability*: It’s a little tricky getting into the campground and doesn’t seem wide enough turning in but it’s fine. Other than that, it’s easy to get around. I don’t think big rigs would have any issues.
Campground Notes: Beautiful campground with lakes and trees with Spanish moss hanging down.
Site #: 305
Site Rating (1-5): 2
Site Notes: Bulow has weird pull-in spots. They are not pull-through but you’re supposed to pull head in. Probably not a big deal if you have a Class A/B/C, but with our Travel Trailer or a 5th Wheel its hard to drive in and then try to back your truck around your trailer and the trees, etc. Site was full hookups with 50 amp electric. Water had a yellow tint our two water filters couldn’t get rid of but no funny taste or smell. Site is tight, only a couple feet from your neighbor on the utility side, but the door side had plenty of space. Our site had a picnic table but no fire ring.
Amenity Rating (1-5): 4
Amenity Notes: Pool was open but we didn’t use it. Also had mini-golf and horseshoes but we didn’t use those either. We did use the laundry room which was large and cheap ($1.25 each and took credit cards) but 3 dryers were out-of-order. Every Tuesday they had a featured food they sold there, Taco Salad when we were there, but we didn’t go. They also had crafts and activities.
Reason for camping here: Northern most campground in Florida on our way South.
Miscellaneous Notes: Closest Thousand Trails to Clay County if you use St. Brendan’s Isle as your mail service. About an hour from Jacksonville and also close to the beaches.
Dates Stayed: 11/30/2020 – 12/6/2020
Price Paid: $0, with Thousand Trails membership
Weather: It was nice when we got there, in the 70s, but then had a cold snap and nights were down in the 30s. Sunny every day.
Verizon Cell Quality**: Excellent Signal, averaged 79.6 Mb/s down and 8.3 Mb/s up
T-Mobile Cell Quality**: Excellent Signal, averaged 11.1 Mb/s down and 3.2Mb/s up
Mail: We did not have any mail delivered to this campground.
* For reference we are pulling a 33’ long Jayco travel trailer with a 2016 F350 Crew Cab Short Bed 4x4 which is 22’ with hitch giving us a total length of 55’.
**For reference we have two Google Pixel 2 XL on Verizon ‘Play More†unlimited data plans. For data we have an Inseego 8800L on Verizon’s expired prepaid unlimited hotspot plan. In areas of low signal we use a Netgear 6000450 MIMO antenna. For T-Mobile we have an Alcatel Linkzone 2 and our plan is through Calyx Institute. Measurements are taken using the “Multi†test on Speedtest by Ookla.

For Bulow RV Resort: UPDATE 11/26/2020. For a more pleasant camping experience, ask for a grassy site, W/E only. Make sure the showers have HOT water or you'll be disappointed. There are brand new cabins. Looks popular with family groups. I would return for a couple days. BTW, Flagler Beach is really nice.

For Bulow RV Resort: I was comfortable here as a 2-night stopover. Neighbors had a screaming fit around 2am but that's not management's fault. Folks like that are everywhere and are the iconic trailer trash. Went to Flagler Beach and Bulow Plantation ruins.

For Bulow RV Resort: I choose bc of location...This place is not good. Accidently got one wo sewer, not a big deal bc I was only staying 3 days. It was 3 days too long. Many sites are uneven grass only and 50% of the hookups are on the wrong side (100% of the park). Didnt seem to matter caz they dont care how you pull in, so you have hoses in your front yard or nieghbors.
The bathrooms were horrible! If i was homeless i wouldnt choose to go there. Small, nasty, no privacy. Even the “nice†one by the bar has small showers with little privacy.
A good portion of the park floods during a normal rain, as in ankle deep.
The “cabins†are old and have mold on the outside (they’re in flood area). Dude living in his van at the west end by the road. Need I say anymore.
