Blue Spring

Three new campsites were opened in January 2021 south of the Blue Spring Day Use Area near a slough that connects to the spring and Econfina Creek. The campground entrance via Blue Spring Camp Road is now separate from the day use area entrance (see site diagram). Each of the three campsites at Blue Spring have a picnic pavilion with picnic table, pedestal grill, fire ring, and waste receptacle. A shared portable toilet is centrally located within the campground and there is an access point to Blue Spring Slough, which is adjacent to Campsite 1. Maximum capacity of each campsite is eight people. All campsites require a free reservation. Access is via North Blue Springs road, a graded dirt road, and Blue Spring Camp Road, a gravel road. The Blue Spring Day Use area is a short walk away or can be accessed by water via the slough in a kayak or canoe. Blue Spring, with its clear spring waters and steps leading down to the spring, is a popular day use area that was recently improved and rehabilitated from the severe impacts of Hurricane Michael. Amenities include picnic pavilions, a boardwalk, a viewing deck and a karst feature overlook bridge. Day Use is allowed from 8:00 am to 8:00pm in the day use area without a reservation.
