Come pitch a tent or hang your hammock between the beautiful hardwoods.
We currently have primitive tent camping that can easily fit 4-5 tents or hammock camping.
Both options sit alongside Sofkahatchee creek. We have 15 acres of untouched forest to wonder through and help you reconnect with mother nature. It’s my favorite spot for meditation and grounding.
The sky is amazingly dark around here and stargazing would be at the top of my list of things I love about the property.
This area is full of wildlife. Raccoons, deer, turkey, possums, armadillo, snakes, and even bears. I haven’t personally ran in to any bears but they have been sited.
So, who knows what you will befriend while in the wild.
The camping areas are very private. It’s part of a 50 acre lot that has recently been cleared and in the process of reseeding and preparing for a pond and farm life. So, sorry if you run in to anything that isn’t picturesque but your camp site will be beautiful and peaceful.
AMENITIES: We want your stay to be as comfortable as possible! For an additional cost, we offer amenities such as tents, towels, bug deterrent, firewood, fire starters, hand warmers, s’mores kits, camping toilet, gold panning kit, games and more. If you have specific needs or requests, don’t hesitate to reach out before your arrival—we’re here to help make your experience unforgettable!

The host Caleb and his Dad, Eddy were exceptional. They were caring and kind, helping us setup the electric and water at our site with full hookup. The locked gated entry gave us a good sense of security, coming and going as we pleased. The tall hardwood and pine trees gave a wonderful canopy over the very organized, clean camp grounds. The pond was easily accessible, with clear water and some fish. Myself and my dog enjoyed the hiking trails. , including the tranquility of the area. The camp road and sites have gravel for easy navigation and setup. Note: right now, not all sites have full hookup.
