Free primitive camping.
Camping is allowed anywhere on the Apalachicola National Forest for a maximum of 14 days, except during general gun season. During General Gun season, camping is only allowed in hunt camps and at developed recreation areas. In the hunt camps, campers may stay from 14 days prior to general gun season to 14 days after general gun season. Hunt Camps are heavily used during hunting season.
Hunting season (General Gun season) dates vary each year but include Thanksgiving weekend (Thursday-Sunday) and December and January. The official dates and designated hunt camps are identified each year in the Apalachicola Wildlife Management Area brochure published by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and available at their website.
Per Rufus's Review: "If you have a big rig DO NOT let your GPS take you on WAKULLA ARRON RD. It gets very narrow and tree covered. There is no place to turn around and you will be scrubbing tree climbs. You can make it through but it ain't pretty."

This is a hunt camp, meaning there are no services, not even toilets.
Stayed here in early October. All areas had just been mowed and firewood stacke in various places. ther was NO cellphone signal. Endured 2 1/2 miles of good dirt road getting to this campground, but it was a pleasant, quiet stay in my class c.
Stayed here in a 23 foot-long Class C (RV). James would stay here again.

MOST IMPORT: If you have a big rig DO NOT let your GPS take you on WAKULLA ARRON RD. It gets very narrow and tree covered. There is no place to turn around and you will be scrubbing tree climbs. You can make it through but it aint pretty.

Avoid hunting season
A basic National Forest campsite. Nothing soecial bout it.
Stayed there during Thanksgiving weekend and there were two villages of hunters with loud generators all night long.
There were two chimical toilets with squich-squich to wash hands.
Would stay there again, but at another time of year.
Stayed here in a 22 foot-long Class B (RV). Ti-Gus would stay here again.
