Since you need to go through Reserve America to get a site instead of the Anastasia website that makes sense in a way and might explain why I thought it was open for camping last year after hurricane Mathew

Just checked the website again and it doesn't show Anastasia as closed?!?!  Maybe they're not allowing camping yet but the day use side is open.

We had the same issue with hurricane Mathew, I believe, last year.
The original information we got indicated they were open and I think it was coopercdrkey that told me it was not.
I think I will rely on cooper from now on for my Anastasia update since they seem to like the park as much as my wife and I do

We have reservations there for next July....was on the Fla State Park website last week just to see park conditions.  It appeared to me to be open.  Guess I was wrong.  Sorry for your disappointment.

The recorded message included a range of dates, but I'm sorry that I do not remember them.  It seems that it is not a long closure-  maybe just long enough to mess up our plans.

Go to the web site for Florida State Parks.  I'm sure they have the closure details.  One of our favorite parks...

Sorry to hear about the cancellation. Did they give you any idea when they will be in full operation again?
We enjoy camping there as well and were hoping to camp there in the near future

We prefer the older section of Magnolia Loop-  fairly secluded, modern bath house and close to the day lot and spring.  Got to be a little careful during times of high water in the Suwannee as the cypress groves will flood and there's gators in them there waters!  Cry
