At 3G-Camping Retreat, we combine the tranquility of nature with modern amenities and endless activities. Privately set within the therapeutic and research-based Green Grass Grove hobby farm. Whether you’re here for foraging the wilderness, traditional camping, primitive camping, luxury glamping, themed camping adventures, or the groundbreaking mycological research we support, there’s something for everyone! What’s New: Due to the aftermath of Hurricane Idalia, we’ve had to make some adjustments. But in the spirit of resilience and creativity, we’ve risen stronger. Our Campers now have the freedom to choose from one of our 8+ uniquely themed campground locations on a first-come, first-serve basis. Our 3D-printing technology is breathing new life into our woodland decorations and amenities. Our 3D-Printing initiative (courtesy of 3G-Prints) is rebuilding and expanding our woodland decorations. From whimsical fairy gardens to the newly designed Tree of Famous Faces, our campground is being transformed, one print at a time. As part of our renewed focus, we’ve teamed up with the 🍄 Mushroom Network to establish a robust mushroom genetics database. This work aids in the preservation and expansion of the field of mycology. Upon entering the Retreat, you’ll find a special area covered in high-quality landscaping fabric, dedicated to the cultivation of various gourmet mushrooms. Some are even U-Pick, offering a unique hands-on mycology experience. Your Affordable Option for Suwannee Music Park Events: Are you attending an event at Suwannee Music Park, like the renowned Hulaween? Look no further for your camping needs. We’re the closest Hip-Camp site to the Music Park and offer a range of affordable options to make your stay comfortable and convenient. Looking for a unique camping experience nestled cozily in the North Florida woods near Suwannee River State Park and/or the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park? Escape to 3G-Camping Retreat, the ultimate exclusive camping experience nestled in the heavily wood portions of our 5.01+ acre therapeutic and research-based hobby farm known as Green Grass Grove! Whether you’re looking for a traditional camping experience, primitive camping, luxury glamping, or a themed camping adventure, we have something for everyone. Immerse yourself in nature with stunning views of wildlife and foliage, and take in the breathtaking constellations at night from the privacy of your own campsite. Less than 3-minutes away from Suwannee River State Park, there is access to a wide range of outdoor activities such as spring diving, bird watching, boating, canoeing, fishing, geocaching, hiking, kayaking, picnicking, and wildlife viewing. Plus, with multiple natural springs and parks nearby, you’ll have endless opportunities to swim, hike, and explore. Take a dip in the crystal-clear waters of Falmouth Spring and Suwannee Spring, or explore the trails at Ellaville Spring, home to an abundance of wildlife including all sorts of birds, whitetail deer, bats, and tortoise. With over a dozen more springs and parks located within a 30-minute radius of our campground, you’ll have endless opportunities to discover (or should we say rediscover) the natural wonders of the beautiful SUWANNEE COUNTY. Experience the ultimate convenience with our Outdoor WiFi, well water, exclusive access to our online Canteen Shop, and camp gear/equipment rentals. After a day of festivities at Suwannee Music Park, come stay with us and take advantage of our prime location. We love accommodating Campers who are looking for a place to stay after experiencing the amazing Suwannee Music Park and its countless festivities. To find us from Suwannee Music Park simply take 132 towards Suwannee River State Park- we’re just past the park entrance on County Road 132. Experience the thrill of our horror-themed camping during the Halloween and Fall seasons or take a stroll to our popular landmark, the Tree of Famous Faces. We are continuously expanding our trails, amenities, and other exciting features to enhance your camping experience. Green Grass Grove – where nature, luxury, and adventure meet. Campsite Starfield is located further inside the property. This designated RV/Trailer campsite on Green Grass Grove, formerly known as Campsite 4, is perfect for stargazers looking to gaze at the stars and planets all night! When you are here, it feels like you are in your own private forest! This spot typically accommodates RV/Trailers but we do allow campers to book this site as well. We are continually investing time and funds into providing additional resources, but to find the most current information please also visit our Website at 3G-Camping.com and then PLEASE BOOK HERE ON HIPCAMP!!!

Safe & lovely sites near Suwannee
If you're looking for somewhere quiet, safe, and straightforward to set up your camp, you've found the right spot. For my safety I have to be very choosy when I book a spot to camp alone. This was exactly the type of site I like: park close by, owner not too far away, private property, operator who gives plenty of privacy, not a ton of sites. I felt very safe the whole time and was never out if touch with civilization. Pay the extra for wifi & a potty tent--it's worth it. Lots of beautiful things to see and do in the area, and this is a perfect home base. Extremely close to Suwannee State Park. I got to see all three sites and they were equally nice.

Green Grass Grove Campsite Retreat (GGGCR) is a nice choice for a laid-back, easily accessible Hipcamp in a peaceful, rural setting. Upon our evening arrival, our friendly hosts welcomed my husband and I to their property and highlighted the amenities and camp site options available to us during our stay. The grounds of GGGCR were cozy and calm. During our stay at GGGCR, we pitched our tent on a level spot nestled within the woods. Even at night, the walk-in camping plot was easily accessed from the designated parking spot thanks to well-lit pathways. The main house on the property was adjacent to the campsite, and our kind hosts provided us with access to potable water for our stay. A fire-pit was also available during our visit. The night was quiet, and we woke up refreshed and ready to explore the surrounding area the next morning. Five minutes down the road we found the Suwanee River State Park. Natural springs, limestone structures, and miles of walking trails next to a wide, flowing river made this an excellent place to spend the day. My husband and I were so pleased to find such a gem of a park so conveniently near this Hipcamp. Thank you for your easy-going hospitality, and sharing your wooded retreat with us. It was a pleasure!

The Current Trailer Site
The trailer site is located at a very inappropriate spot for camping. The open barn make it not private and not attractive. We opted not to stay. However, the dispersed tent sites appear to be nicely secluded.

This was a very good deal for the price. I believe I was one of the first Hipcampers to enjoy this site. It looked recently cleared. Google Maps did not take me to the correct location using the address that was provided (it was about 7-8 miles down the road). However, Alex was very responsive and stayed with me on the phone until I pulled in to the site. Some kind of signage or landmark would be helpful for future campers. Alex was responsive again when I called about another issue the next day (a very friendly neighbor dog that REALLY wanted to go kayaking with me and kept jumping in my truck before I could pull out - Alex showed up immediately and took the dog home). The site where I stayed had been cleared by an excavator, but not smoothed out, so I spent some time leveling and smoothing the sand out to prepare it for a tent. I would bring a shovel and a hard rake if I was tent camping here again. There was plenty of firewood on site due to the recent clearing, though I still appreciated having some gathered and waiting in a wheelbarrow for me (for a nominal fee) when I arrived. The site is indeed VERY close to the Suwannee River State Park (which is on one of the most beautiful stretches of the river) and there are several other interesting springs and historic sites nearby (the former logging town of Ellaville and Suwannacoochie Springs, Suwannee Springs, Twin Rivers State Forest, etc.) The site is also close enough to the City of Live Oak to take advantage of grocery stores, restaurants, etc. It was close to the County Road, so I heard the occasional passing car, but it's not a very busy road, and it's isolated enough from light pollution to see plenty of stars at night. I wanted to be near the State Park without having to stay in a campground with the noise, light, etc. This was exactly what I was looking for - no frills at a good price. I would definitely stay here again.
