Weekend Trip to J and P Creekside Retreat

True camping not a parking lot. Large sites with tables and chairs good clean creek to swim and play. The host is very nice and agreeable.

2 nights at J and P Creekside Retreat

Me and my husband stayed at Creekside A! It was beautiful! Large area on the creek with lots of tables and chairs and an awesome firepit. John’s place is a must see! He has a beautiful area to unwind in the shade at all the sites. The “common” area is so cool. The shower and bathroom area is the perfect set up. You will not be disappointed. Close enough to everything you want to do in the area. Or just sit back and enjoy the camp. I would highly recommend hipcamper’s to check it out 👍🏼👍🏼

1 night at Timberline Glamping Naples

Very cute and the air condition was so nice at the end of a hot summer day in the Everglades.

Weekend Trip to J and P Creekside Retreat

J&P is a beautiful, quiet, and pleasant place. The host was very helpful and friendly. My dog had a unique experience, free range, playing with other dogs, and the kids had a blast fishing and exploring. There were no mosquitoes. All the facilities were clean and accessible. I highly recommend it. We will visit again.

Weekend Trip to J and P Creekside Retreat

Our experience was excellent. Mr. John was super friendly and accessible at all times. The place was beautiful, peaceful, with the sound of birds and nature. The kids fished, played, and swam. The dogs felt free the whole time. We had a wonderful experience. I definitely recommend it! We will definitely visit again! Thanks, John. We had a great time.🥰

Weekend Trip to J and P Creekside Retreat

Phenomenal spot!! 10/10 would recommend. Especially creekside A campsite. We basically had the whole back area to ourselves. Very secluded, very quiet. The bathroom was super clean and had AC if you want to sneak in for a quick break from the heat. The outdoor shower was a nice touch. We rented the two man Kayak and went up the river a couple miles. Fish were jumping out the water is was so full of fish. John was an excellent Host and I even offered us to stay a little longer after check out since he didn’t have anyone else coming in after us. We paid for 4 bundles of wood and John’s son damn cut us down a whole tree!!! lol awesome:) we had a blast, definitely lots of mosquitoes for about an hour after the sun goes down being by the river and all but after that clear sky’s and good times. Definitely would recommend any family especially with kids to stay at this campsite. They even had a little trees house for the kiddos to chill in. Very cool. Good WiFi service too. This Memorial Day will be remembered forever. Thanks John!!!

Weekend Trip to J and P Creekside Retreat

My mother had two criteria for where we stayed: cold A/C and a soft bed. This place exceeded both expectations beautifully. The bathroom close to the cabin was a plus.

Beautiful setting with a creek Spacious sites John is very nice

1 night at Healing Tree Homestead

Camping went smoothly. I really enjoyed seeing the plant nursery at this site, and connecting a bit with folks who used to work at Echo, just before taking a Global Village tour of the Echo gardens. If I'd had a little more time on my hands, and planned further in advance, I think I would have also really enjoyed helping out a bit at Healing Tree Homestead.

John's creekside property is a slice of paradise! And John is the ultimate host making sure we felt completely at home on his beautiful property. Love that there are kayaks available, plenty of space to sit,relax, surrounded by beautiful flowers, plants, and birds viewing the creek, not only at our beautiful site but in the large backyard where the outdoor bar, firepit, treehouse, and dock with sundeck were. The half bath was airconditioned and impeccable and the outdoor shower has a privacy fence. Our site even had a hammock, charcoal grill, and plenty of chairs around firepit and tables. A true gem. Perfect for family gatherings!

This was our last round of camping in Florida before heading north to Georgia, and J&P Creekside Retreat is an awesome place for camping! We have called it “magical” … with the majestic oak trees along the Shell Creek and all kinds of fauna and wildlife near the creek banks. The hosts John and Patty are friendly, kind, helpful, and attentive to any of your needs, and son JJ goes out of his way to keep the grounds so beautiful. If you are looking for a great camping retreat in Southwest Florida, this is the one! 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

Weekend Trip to J and P Creekside Retreat

It was a beautiful site. The A frame was outstanding. Just a lovely time:) 10 out of 10

Weekend Trip to J and P Creekside Retreat

We had a relaxing and fun time at J & P’s campground! He has it set up with chairs, picnic tables, and a hammock which is so nice to have all that already there so we could get our camper parked and then chill out and enjoy the peaceful campsite. We were able to use the lights and fan in our camper but the voltage was not strong enough to run our AC. We stayed on A which has a kayak access at the site and it’s just a couple minutes walk to the dock and swimming area. Unfortunately we couldn’t have a fire because there was a “no burn” in effect because of the drought FL is in right now. We only stayed one night but I would’ve loved to stay one or 2 more nights :) We hope to go back!

We had a wonderful stay at The Hideaway! The campsite was exactly as described—well-maintained, spacious, and private, with beautiful creek frontage (though access to the water was limited due to brush). It was conveniently located near the shower, bathroom, and public areas, which made things easy. John was a fantastic host—friendly, responsive, and thoughtful. He had everything ready for us, including kayak rentals and even a lovely sunset pontoon cruise on the scenic creek. The site comfortably fit our three small tents and vehicles, with extra amenities like a picnic table, chairs, a hammock, and even a power cord—wish I had brought a hot pot! Some of my friends noticed light road noise since the site is near the entrance, but it didn’t bother me. We were part of a larger birthday celebration and may have been a bit loud at times, but John remained gracious and accommodating throughout. Everyone was especially excited that dogs were welcome—J and P’s pups were the sweetest! Morning coffee by the river while birdwatching was a personal highlight. I’d absolutely recommend this spot and hope we get the chance to return (hopefully a little quieter next time!). Thank you for hosting us!

Absolutely amazing private camping, John is an awesome host. Can't wait to go back.

John and his family have spent so much time and put so much love into the grounds. If you are a dog lover and have a well behaved dog....this place is pure heaven. I just stayed in the A-frame for 3 nights- to celebrate my 50th birthday. I had friends drive across the coast to stay as well, and they rented out the Hideaway Camp spots in addition to Creekside B. Everyone is far enough away that you feel secluded...but the little paths and trails take you where you need to go by foot quickly and easily. We played on the trampoline. Swang on the swings. Laid in the hammocks. Jumped off the dock and swam in Shell Creek. We went on a sunset cruise with JJ and had a blast. We had so much fun just hanging out on John and Patty's property...that we didn't even find the time to use the kayaks we rented from them. The A-frame is unbelievable. I want to live there. T.v. A.C. Ice maker. Kerig coffee machine. Little fridge. Little microwave. Queen size air mattress upstairs...king size bed downstairs. The cutest deck you ever did see. Our own private flush toilet and sink with mirror. And a little outdoor sink with an attached hose for dishes and dog baths! My dog was also celebrating his 3rd birthday and he just had a blast with the resident dog Roxy. Every morning he would go out and find his doggie pals for a short game of zoomies and chase, before looping back. I made the BEST memories here!! Thank you John, Patty and JJ!! Best luck for the future. We will be back!!!

Creekside A was a great location next to the river and close to the bathroom and shower. The bathroom and shower were perfect, and the signage on the property especially around the community area sets this place on our visit again list for sure. Creekside A and B are be perfect to both to give two groups privacy but still be close enough for friendly interaction. John and his son were very helpful and friendly, and we loved talking to them.

1 night at J and P Creekside Retreat

We went tent camping and two spots were open next to each other, A and B. John said we could pick the one we wanted since A was not booked for the evening. It was right by the creek and was spacious, quiet and offered great privacy. Other than John, we only saw a dog that came into the site, since dogs are free to roam off leash. John was hospitable and showed us to the site and explained the rest room and shower were at the back of his house. Pleasant stay, thanks John!
