The park is well maintained with clean facilities. There are a few bike trails which were dry and fun. The general store closes at 5pm. One dump station. Fire ring and picnic table. No post for hanging items. Beautiful sites with huge trees and vegetation between campers.
Really nice state park, campgrounds very nice, large spots the restroom and showers are clean. There's a private shower if anyone would need handicap access. The trails are nice. Beautiful views. Fishing is OK !
What a glorious state park! We admittedly came here to get our state park passport stamped for Bulow Plantation, but we stayed and explored Tomoka while we were there. I'm so glad we did! WE SAW A BOBCAT!!! Like 50 yards away, maybe. It crossed a trail and meandered on it's way. I have never seen one so close! The trails were thick with mosquitos, so apply more bugspray than you think you'll need. Bring your lunch! There are picnic tables all over the place. The mosquitoes were barely noticeable on the western side of the peninsula. The breeze coming in off the water was enough to keep the mosquitoes away. Restroom facilities were on par with other state park restrooms. I noticed they did have a handicapped parking spot next to a covered pavilion and the restrooms, so it's an accessible parking area. We wanted to go into the outfitter store to ask about equipment rentals and to buy some drinks, but they were closed. Maybe that's only open on weekends? Call in advance. All in all, a beautiful park and I look forward to returning and exploring further.
I like quiet. Tamoka State Park is VERY family-friendly. Kids and dogs all hours of the night. There is no enforced quiet hour. With this said. Super clean facilities and really nice rangers and staff. The on-site convenience store has everything you need but budget accordingly. 2x retail. On the lighter side, the clothes washers and dryers are only $1 per cycle. We still had a good time, but we just won't be back. There are other parks we prefer.
I went there this past weekend for a girls getaway. We tent camped here. The campsites were clean and the facilities were kept nice. No issues. The outpost is in the back of the park right on the water. Very nice place to hang out and watch nature. Our trip was amazing. Definitely recommend and hope to go back with my husband soon.
Staying in site 26...nice privacy by the trees throughout, even separating many lots. Bathhouse is very nice with big private showers with good pressure and very hot water. Only complaint and it's a big one, the roads inside the park are horrible. It will literally hurt your back and neck trying to navigate these roads. I'm starting for 10 nights and will eventually have to use my portable black tank to dump my black tank and I'm not looking forward to pulling it to the dump site on these roads. Edited... 2 days after this review, they graded the roads and it's much better. All happy now.
What's going on at Tomoka campground? Whatever it is, it's not good. I've been going there for years and have seen a severe decline in the campground. Need for maintenance and repair of the restrooms. The restrooms are dark and dirty. It didn't used to be that way and it's not that way at other State parks. Campsites need to be cleaned up better by the hosts. Fire rings are filled with old stank wood and are not being cleaned up. Hosts used to rake out the sites and clean out the fire rings, but not anymoreI've found used condoms, feminine napkins, and other trash in the campsites. Some sites look more like homeless encampments than campsites.
Such a beautiful area! Spacious, clean, quiet and great for fishing, camping, or having a picnic with your special someone. Restrooms: We're surprisingly pretty clean Picnic area: Picnic benches and gazabo for shelter from the elements
Nice private sites set up in a large loop. Visit the camp store for draft beer and boiled peanuts. Close the Ormond Beach. Park offer canoe and kayak rentals, beautiful natural setting.
Came here for a get away weekend. Absolutely loved it. Facilities are clean and so is the park. Beautiful sea breeze all day kept most of the bugs away. Camp sites can be tricky to get into due to the narrowness of the camper roads, but if you are an experienced camper then you will have no issues. Only a few minutes drive from places like Publix and CVS. Great restaurant row not far away. This is a must state park!! Dog-friendliness: Brought my pup here and we took some trails. Lots of other dogs. Picnic area: Clean and ample room with built in metal grills.
