About Ocala Forest
Campsites
Ocala Forest Campsites, located between Ocala National Forest and Lake George, is a rustic and outdoorsy Pittman neighborhood with sandy pine roads and camp-style lots. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the CR 42 and CR 445 junction, where trailheads, bait-and-tackle counters, and small general-store energy set the pace. Salt Springs Recreation Area, Juniper Springs Recreation Area, and the Ocala Drive-In serve as recognizable local pillars tied to weekends outdoors. Homes and camps lean practical—cabins, RV pads, and screened porches built for shade and gear. Longleaf pines and palmetto understory frame dark-sky nights and morning birdsong. Days revolve around paddling runs, forest loops, and lake-bound drives.
