    Beautiful waterfalls

    Easy to get around for all dog sizes and abilities. Beautiful scenery, friendly visitors and volunteers, and very clean. A must see.

    Rainbow Springs SP very Pup Friendly!

    We camped at RSSP for 2 nights. Very pup friendly. Had a wonderful time. my husband even commented “I feel like I’m in a dog park!”. All the campers had pups and all were well behaved and sweet! I didn’t see one “pile”. Everyone picked up after their pups. Clean, quiet, and beautiful!

    Wonderful Ramble

    My 7 year old son recently visited Rainbow River State Park Headspring with our two dogs. We took them on the trail and visited the 3 man made waterfalls. We had a lovely time. We also visited the butterfly garden and former zoo area. I would highly recommend a visit!

    Loved This!

    Such a beautiful place and pet friendly. Dogs are allowed down to the spring (not in the water) and are allowed on all the trails. Definitely worth a visit!
