Sun Outdoors St. Augustine

This is my 2nd experience with Sun Outdoors and again was impressed. Check in was smooth. We got a buddy spot. We were close to one of the Comfort Stations and smaller dog park. Bathroom/shower rooms were clean, always had toilet paper and paper towels. This location was very quiet, easy to maneuver thru the streets. Spots were pavers- so we didn't even need to take out our camping mat. They supply a picnic table with your spot. There were multiple Comfort Stations and dog parks. The Comfort Stations toilet/shower rooms are code locked from the outside. The shower had great pressure and water stayed warm/hot. There is also a fitness center and laundry facility there- both were super clean. There is a Dollar General right at the entrance.

Love this place, especially the back area where most of the short term campers are placed. We are in site 133. This side is away from the busy road and very quiet. They have two dog parks, one small and another very large. It’s easy to use the dog parks without any other dog entering. My dogs loved to dig and play on the agility equipment. The pool is awesome and the grounds are maintained very well. It’s in a great location too.

Campground seems well maintained. Spots are very close together as I listen to the neighbors dog barking all night. When you arrive just DON’T EXPECT TO BE IN THE SPOT YOU PICKED WHEN BOOKING. Went camping for a birthday weekend, booked sites next to each other with friends. When arrived one of us was in the site we booked and the other was across the campground. If we would have known we would have went else where. Probably won’t be back. **** In response to the owner **** That’s funny, because when booking I never seen where I could lock in my site. Either did my friends. Heck, I even had one of your employees tell me, you used to have that option BUT TOOK IT AWAY. My friends had a different employee tell her the same thing. 🤔 Maybe time for a staff meeting so you all can get on the same page. **** Second Response to owner *** Dear owner, please know I did call 5 days before check in, I talk to one of your staff members very briefly because she rushed me off the phone so fast. I did tell her we was camping with friends and she only would check our site, then rushed to hang up phone.

We stayed her for 3 weeks this March and we’re very pleased with the staff and park. Our site 116 was large with pavers and backed up to a quiet wooded area. We didn’t get to use many of the amenities as we were busy with all the St. Augustine area has to offer. We would definitely stay here again and look forward to it.

Front part of the park was great for transient campers, but about 20 percent of the park is permanent residents, which gave it a kind of strange vibe. Nice dog park, but you go through the permanent resident section to access it. Excellent location just outside of downtown St. Augustine. Quick drive, easy Uber. Staff was very friendly.
