The best dog-friendly RV sites near Milton guide

Where to go

Big Lagoon State Park

On the northern shores of the Gulf of Mexico, Big Lagoon State Park covers more than 700 acres of upland habitats, including saltwater tidal marshes and a coastal forest of pine flatwoods. Nearby beach campsites and cabin rentals offer views of the Gulf, plus the opportunity to check out more than 20 species of migratory birds, which stop through the area. The park is also a starting and ending point for the Florida Circumnavigational Saltwater Paddling Trail, a 1,500-mile sea-kayaking route that takes paddlers across the state.

Blackwater River State Forest

The largest forest in Florida, Blackwater is a dream destination for hikers, kayakers, cyclists, and campers thanks to dozens of creeks and streams spanning the park’s ecosystem of longleaf pine, scrub oak, and wiregrass. It’s a great destination for day trip paddles and overnight voyages, with many private forest campsites near streams and the main river.

Escribano Point Wildlife Management Area

Spanning 10 miles of Florida coastline on Blackwater Bay, Escribano Point is a great launch point for paddlers and anglers to explore the park’s bays, river swamps, and estuaries, which support unique coastal habitats and local species like black bears. Hipcampers staying at one of Escribano Point’s tent campsites (or at a nearby campground or RV site) should be aware of bears in the area, especially when storing food.

When to go

Like all of Florida, Milton is known for being warm and humid year-round. With July temperatures regularly reaching well into the 90s, summer can be a great time to hit the water and escape the heat, but it’s best to be aware of hurricane threats during this time. Heatstroke and dehydration are also concerns—always check to see if a park or preserve has safe drinking water, and pack a supply if not. Winters in Florida are still rather mild, with even cold January days only reaching an average low of 40°F. For this reason, winter RV camping is especially popular.
