📖 About This Campground
Mike Roess Gold Head Branch State Park in Keystone Heights Florida was developed on a 2,000-acre site by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) during the 1930s. The extraordinary craftsmanship of the CCC is still evident today. Located on rolling sand hills in an area known as the central ridge of Florida, a deep ravine with springs issuing from its sides bisects the area and forms Gold Head Branch. Offers partial and primitive (no water, electric, or sewer) hookup RV and tent camping.
