While very conveniently located just off I95 in NW Jacksonville area, Sunny Oaks provides incredibly easy off-road access to park your RV for the night. In under 1 minute, you will be exiting a very heavily-trafficked interstate and find yourself in a secluded, family-owned fenced-in an RV-riddled maze that is, despite its proximity to heavy traffic, surprisingly quiet. There’s a proper office where you’ll check-in, secure your numbered parking place and be given all of the information that you need to successfully park for the night.
Amenities include all the typical hook-ups (water, 50 amp electric and sewage), high speed WiFi, scattered pavilions and BBQ pits with picnic tables (so group picnicking, but no individual picnic tables are available), laundr-O-mat all in a quiet, wooded forest setting. This place offers holiday-themed events featuring Easter BBQ and a Halloween haunted house. The bathouses are relatively decent offering a his / hers 2 toilet and 2 shower facilities along with 4 combined outdoor showers. The place is dog-friendly and even has a small playground for the kiddos as well as a clubhouse with a proper exercise room, work / office cubicles, family room w/ TV’s, boardgames and even a game room.
Insider’s tips? If you have the opportunity, head on over to Hana Park for some first-rate city park escapes that include camping, kayaking, swimming and biking options. I also highly recommend, if you have the time, to check out Amelia Island State Park (to the south) or Little Talbot Island for some excellent beachheads, proper tent camping (again) as well as numerous hiking, swimming and boating excursions. Lastly, if you’re looking for a great place to grab some local grub, check out Woodpecker’s Backyard BBQ for quite possibly the best BBQ you will ever eat here in FL (or perhaps anywhere!).
Happy Camping!
