Enjoying the wilds of Florida does not mean you have to rough it in a tent. Cabins are available at many public campgrounds, such as KOA sites, and the state park system offers cabin rentals at many of their popular parks, both inland and on beaches. Wherever you are planning to visit in the Florida Panhandle, there is sure to be a location nearby that offers cabin rentals and all of the amenities of home. - Located just east of Tallahassee, this KOA campground is only minutes from Interstate 10, making it an easy trek to all Northwest Florida sites and attractions. There is a stocked fishing lake on the premises, and Wakulla Springs State Park is one of many nearby places of interest, along with the Florida Caverns a short drive west. Full amenities are available on site, and a free continental breakfast is available to those who stay the night. Cabin sizes range from one room to group lodges.
