Full Facility Camping Camping Facilities

Located on the pristine Rainbow River, the campground is located about a mile and a quarter downstream from the main headsprings and state park day use area. Managed by special agreement with the Marion County Parks and Recreation Department, there are 105 sites, all available with water and electric and some have sewer hook-ups, a campground store, recreation hall, showers & restrooms, public telephone, laundry, pool, and playground.
Fishing for largemouth bass and other fresh water species is popular from the campground. There are canoes and tubes for rent at the campground store for those campers wishing to explore the Rainbow River. And if you’d like to cool off, there’s a swimming area at the river. Although there are 105 sites, reservations are encouraged and are accepted by telephone, (352) 465-8550, or in person with a check, VISA or Mastercard.

Camping Fees - $19.00/night. All campsites have water and electric. A limited number of sewer hookups are available.

Both approaches are well marked with Rainbow Springs Campground directional signs. The Address is: 18185 S.W. 94th Street - Dunnellon, FL 34432.

Manager's Message

NOTICE: Our campground is now open. Please be aware that it is still a work in progress as the new tubing operation is still under construction. 35 sites are currently available. Also please be aware that our Visitor Service Provider, Dragonfly Watersports, is not yet back in the campground so we do not offer kayak or canoe rentals from the campground, but only from the headsprings at this time. We will post here as soon as that changes. If you bring your own, you must offload approximately 500 yards away from the river and carry or wheel it down to the water. Please ask to use our canoe/kayak dolly designed and built by staff for our visitors use in the campground. We apologize for any inconvenience as we continue to try to improve your camping experience. Please watch this site for updates as they occur.
