~ Blackwater River State Park - Holt, Florida ~

Description:  This is a very clean and beautiful campground. The interpretive trails are nice with lots of long bridges for the low areas. There is a couple of small beaches on the river for swimming and just relaxing. There is additional access just down the road a short distance through the public use area. There is a posting to watch for "Gators", but it is Florida after all.  We paid $10 per night (Florida Senior Resident price) plus tax via Reserve America, GREAT price for full hook-ups.  Lots of shade, most sites wide enough for large RV and toad side by side on the level pea gravel. The exceptions are sites 1, 2, and 4, which are smaller and have less shade. Clothes lines are provided along with both a table, fire pit and cooking grill. There is a great playground which has shade too. Most sites have vegetation between them so the seem private also nice spacing between. Sites 5, 6, and 29 have concrete pads for handicapped campers.  There is overnight parking for big rigs or drive in campers in the public use area for $5.33 per night.

Sites: Sites are very level pull throughs ~ FHU ~ complete with shady trees, picnic tables, and lots of grass! Wi-Fi wireless Internet service and cable TV hook-ups.  We camped on Site 72...

Weather During Stay: Very warm but the low humidity & wind kept it from feeling to hot

Phone/TV/Internet: Our Verizon MiFi card and phone worked really good.  Also our AT&T phone also had good reception.  We were able to get Satellite TV with our roof top antenna (Direct TV) but the park had cable if you wanted.

Elevation/Landscape:  Some trees and normal Texas vegetation and as level ground as can be...

Lighting/Noise: Park is well lit at night and the noise level is relatively quiet.

Things to See & Do:  Odessa offers plenty of recreation and leisure for visitors. Unique museums include The Presidential Museum, The Permian Basin Petroleum Museum, and even a meteor crater site.

The city also features nearly 14 city parks and walking trails, an ideal way to spend an afternoon and enjoy the sunny weather. Tennis courts, ball fields, basketball courts, and volleyball are also available at most of the parks.
Rating: 7.5  Only because we called weeks ahead for a site for 6 weeks and they couldn't seem to put us up for that long even thought there were spaces empty while we were there.  Also the bad water had a little to do with it even though you are pretty much told not to drink the water in any park.  Do you think it could have something to do with all the oil well digging????
