About
Sand Pond Campground is located in Pine Log State Forest, Florida's first state forest, acquired in 1936 and named for Pine Log Creek which runs through its approximately 7,000 acres. The forest comprises diverse natural communities including sandhills, flatwoods, cypress ponds, and titi swamps that support a variety of indigenous wildlife and plant species. The campground offers 20 back-in RV/tent sites with 30/50-amp electric and water hookups. Each site includes a fire ring and picnic table, with maximum equipment lengths varying from 23 to 42 feet depending on the specific site. A bathhouse with restrooms and showers serves campers, and a dump station is available for RV waste disposal. Recreational opportunities abound, including fishing from the on-site pier, hiking, mountain biking, canoeing, swimming, and wildlife observation. The campground is located approximately 14 miles north of Panama City Beach, making it a convenient base for exploring both the forest and the Gulf Coast.
