Heart of the Country is our home and also your own personal twelve acre state park whenever you stay with us!
We are less than 15 minutes from Interstate 10 and from Interstate 65.
I offer a half-dozen campsites, all either on a relatively level paved driveway or grass. Power (20 amp and 30 amp) and water is available. We have two 30 amp campsites, which are first come, first served.
WIFI is available! (please ask for password).
We have a portable toilet (portable-potty) for your use.
This is a Longleaf Pine sanctuary with lots of nature trails.
This is also a hobby farm with livestock (two Donkeys, two Goats and a flock of Chickens). I feed the livestock grain every morning usually between 8 and 9 am, and again hay before dusk. You are always welcome to join me and I'll introduce all of them to you!
My dog, Homer, is our very friendly welcoming ambassador who will enthusiastically great you upon your arrival. I put him up in his kennel each evening around dusk, then lock him in his shed until morning which keeps him from barking during the night.
We also host three AirBnBs, so other guests may be here as well.
Texting via the app is our preferred mode of communication. If you call, please leave a message if I can't answer, and I will call you back.
We are slowly updating the site photos. Use them only to determine your price, for example: A site with 30 amp power and water is $25 per night. A site with 20 amp power and water is $20 per night. A boondocking site (no power) is $15 per night. All sites have access to a porta-potty and water.
Suggested local attraction: Blakeley State Historic Park is four miles away.

National forest 43mi from Citronelle · 79 sites
Lush rolling terrain and wide slow creeks are trademarks of the De Soto National Forest. So are kickin’ it in a canoe with a brew while you float down the river, we suggest exploring both! The swamplands here offer ample opportunity for kayaking, canoeing, and fishing on the Black Creek National Scenic River. The primitive camping along the way is hot in the summer, but prime for misty morning photography and inky orange sunsets...worth it! Off-road the Rattlesnake Bay Trail or hike the Tuxachanie trail with your crew for a day of laughs deep in the pines. You can pretty much camp forever here too, so pack up a week or two worth of gear, and really dig deep into what Desoto has to offer.

We had an absolute great time!!!! Richard was quick to answer when we had an issue with the main gate. It was nice and secluded along the Styx River. We stayed a best camping spot. Even though it was partially raining off and on we were able to stay dry under our huge tarp. Watched the river rise 3 to 4 feet between Friday and Monday. Made life long friends with our neighbors. And planning trips with them to come back. My only complaint was the briars down by peddle beach camp site. We will be back to make more memories!!!!!!

This was a great find. The place was very quiet. Dave greeted me when I got there, really nice guy, and it’s basically a pick your spot when you get there based on whether you’re using electric or not. Dave showed me what areas I could choose from since I didn’t need any amenities. It was a nice flat area in the shade for my campervan. I didn’t hear any noise from anybody else all night or even in the morning. Definitely recommend. I’d go back if I’m ever back in the area. He also has two donkeys, two goats and some chickens down the road a little when you drive in so it was nice to pet some of them.

Tent camping here is amazing! Right on the river. Can fish right on the bank (caught a few catfish, fried them up and ate them to same day 😋). You can walk a few meters and play safely in the water. River runs a big quicker than expected, but I also camped during a storm with lots of rain. Beautiful scenery! Richard is awesome and communicated well! Would highly recommend, and definitely planning on coming back!

Loved this spot! Very secluded and isolated. Didn’t see or hear another person in three days. Great directions and communication from the host. My 2 wheel drive Tacoma got me within about 75ft of the sandbar. Any amount of recent rain would require 4wd for sure. Feels very safe while very secluded. Awesome hearing the coyotes howl/sing at night! Very limited cell phone service. Starlink worked perfectly!
