I would like to go camping this spring, but instead of a lodge or cabin, use a tent. I live near Pensacola, FL and don't really want to travel more than 300 miles. Thanks!

Many of Florida's state parks in the panhandle are geared more towards tent camping than big RV's. I expecially liked Blackwater River State Park when I was up there. There's a fantastic canoe livery just outside the park. The trip down the Blackwater River is also fantastic.
Reservations are made through Reserve America, a branch of Ticketmaster. So many sites are held back for drive up accomadations, about 10%, all others must be made through Reserve America.

At the above site you can look at various Florida state parks, even scout the campgrounds for a site you might like.
Another state park I like, near you, is the Suwannee River State Park, near Live Oak. You mat drive over to the Spirit of the Suwannee RV Park to catch a canoe ride down the Suwannee River.
Florida Caverns and Falling Waters State Parks are also nice for tent camping. As you look through the park system on Reserve America's web site, I feel you'll agree that there are many state parks with-in your 300 mile range.
Good luck & happy camping

Went camping in June at Florida Caverns State Park - great place to camp and visited the Falling Waters State Park - did not camp there, but such a lovely area. There are alot of camping areas in that part of Florida - enjoy.

With every day pass, our country is getting into more and more trouble. The inflation, unemployment and falling value of dollar are the main concern for our Government but authorities are just sleeping, they don’t want to face the fact. Media is also involve in it, they are force to stop showing the real economic situation to the people. I start getting more concern about my future as well as my family after watching the response of our Government for the people that affected by hurricane Katrina.
According to recent studies made by World Bank, the coming crisis will be far worse than initially predicted.

I would head east and go near Beacon Rock. Their are few places near their. You could also go across to the Oregon side and hit any of those campgrounds along their.

Last year I actually got a warning from the government to give up my vegetable garden. I was just planting a few tomatoes and sweet potatoes, and they came to ban me from growing them anymore. They made up something about me polluting the environment and stuff… I did what you taught me and they can't touch me now. Or my garden. This is the ultimate strategy against those greedy scums https://tr.im/CyPRK
