Bennett Field Campground

Did not know this little gem was here until I saw a review on YouTube. Less that 30 minutes from the house so we decided to do a quick trip over New Years Eve. Sites are huge. Only 6 sites which are for dry campers. One pit toilet available which was surprisingly very clean. Lake within walking distance for kayaks canoes and fishing. Nice and quiet for a little down time. Would be back again with some friends.

We love Bennett Field, while there are only 6 total sites each of the sites is huge. Very flat and easy to access. For the most part all of the sites are almost "pull thru" sites if needed. The road back to the campground has some washboarding but overall I would rate is good. The bonus to this campround (beyond the $9 per night price) is the proximity to Daytona Beach and Ormond. With 20 min you can be at the beach or any store you might need.

For those Full-Timers there is an amazon locker about 10 min from the campground at the Chevron Station.

We spent 2 days at this campground. First the positive... Easy to find and Big Rig Friendly(35' 5th Wheel). Most sites are pull though sites. It was quiet and peaceful, a few small airplanes during the evening. We did not hear a single generator during our stay!!!!! There are bear proof garbage cans, and a single outhouse. Picnic table and fire pit at each site. On the negative side, the road going in has lots of washboard. There is no water - BYO. Just go slow and you'll be fine. The biggest downside to us is the cost. By the time you pay per night fee of $8.50 the reservation fee $6.50 and the taxes (there are 3). The price is high considering all the Wildlife Management and Water Management areas in the area where camping is almost free. We would stay here in a pinch if needed.

Let me first start by saying the campsite was perfect, people not so much. This was the first time we used our roof top tent and the first.time our kids were out. Our first night was at site 003, which was great. Our second night we had a bunch of friends meet us and moved over to the group camp. Another great site. The location is wonderful. During the second night (Saturday) there were two generators running. We figured they’d stop at quiet hours. The first did. The second larger one had a suv and trailer, followed by another 4-5 rigs showing up between 8-9. What happened next can only be described as a salsa dance party lasting well past midnight, then firing up again around 3:30 for a bit. Needless to say sleep was difficult. But if everyone would respect each other and do things at a normal level instead of a techno club in the woods I wouldn’t have written this novel and simply said the site was great and can’t wait to go back. I will say that sites 3, 5, & 6 were the best in my opinion
