The farm you’re camping on is one of the last family farms remaining in Columbia County and is named Glenn Farm after DV Glenn who married Hettie Lou Niblack in the 1930’s. Over the last 150 years it has been farmed by some of the county’s oldest families such as the Niblack and Ellis families. When DV Glenn came to Florida from his farm in Cairo, GA he took over the portion of the Niblack farm that was inherited by his wife Hettie Lou. At that time he was running native Florida cattle on over 6000 acres. Unfortunately, In 1951 he was killed in a hunting accident leaving his wife with the farm and 4 children (ages 4-11). In order to survive, Hettie Lou Niblack Glenn was forced to sell 5000 acres at $25 an acre. Holding a bachelors degree from Florida State College for Women, she was able to secure a job at the University of Florida as a secretary and with the money from the land sale she was able to raise her four children. Of the original farm, 600 acres remain intact and the Glenn family is trying to keep the farm as an agricultural operation. Your campsite is 1 of three spots (Arrowhead Sink, Dunagan’s Meadow or Magnolia Sink). Dunagan’s meadow is a pasture behind the old farmhouse (built in 1844), Magnolia sink is also on the main farm while Arrowhead Sink is on the edge of a hayfield about a mile down a dirt road. Glenn Farm is a place to come relax and experience a world that is rapidly disappearing. It is not a commercial campground.

Arrowhead Sink
Great time!
My husband had a great time at Arrowhead. The owner was kind and friendly. The location was perfect for a quick camping getaway. Will return!

Magnolia sink
Excellent time there with my 10 yr
I stayed here from Sunday - Friday in March 2024. My 10 yr old niece stayed at the Magnolia site. No electricity or water. Bring bug repellent for ticks, etc. It's Florida afterall. The family farm property was beautiful and it was great to have a large meadow and attached wooded area all to ourselves, minus visiting sheep and lambs! We loved it. Our host, Tom, was fantastic and went above and beyond to make sure we had anything we needed, the means to get it, or directions on where to go for great springs etc. He was so hospitable. And we enjoyed visiting with the Livestock, after ensuring we were respectful of their care and needs, of course.

Arrowhead Sink
Hidden gem!
We had a really amazing time at the arrow head sink! The site is on the edge of a big field with beautiful sunsets, I sat and had coffee and watched deer come out of the timber into the field in the early morning fog, the site has a great fire pit and good long table, some 4x4 posts anchored in the ground with concrete so tarps and hammocks are easy! Every review I read said Tom was really great and fun to interact with and I’m here to say it again! He stopped once to make sure we were ok and showed us the sink (which is AMAZING, a private part of the campsite is this BEAUTIFUL hidden natural pool in a cave with light from holes over head, it’s absolutely stunning) but Tom made sure we knew about everything and answered any questions we had, I’m definitely planning to book this spot again, and for longer maybe, we stayed two nights, 10/10 absolutely would recommend!
