1. Taste of Old Florida

(1512)

43mi from Clewiston · 13 sites · Tents, RVs · Palm City, FL

A small but unique piece of land that was given to a family in the 1920s by the Florida Railroad Company. It stayed in the family until we purchased it. It is unique because the surrounding area does not have much tree coverage. This is due to the ground underneath, which is a vein of grey marl. This is why the area is called the Allapattah (an Indian word for Alligator) Flats. We are hoping that our county stays the way it is so people will know what Old Florida really looks like. Minutes from I-95, but surrounded by the Allapattah Flats Wildlife Management Preserve. Located on Martin Hwy, which was recently designated as a Florida Scenic Hwy. Fifteen minutes to Stuart and thirty minutes to West Palm Beach, a world away from the hustle and bustle. We realize that people also love Florida for Disney and tropical paradises but if that is what you want than this may not be your kind of place.

Molly’s farm is a great spot. Close to the action but not right in it. Pretty area, not a farm but plenty of space. A dump station is 10 minutes away and costs $20. John is a great host and Molly is a sweet heart. You do get a bit of road noise.

This was my first time using this app, so I didn’t know what to expect… and let me say that it far exceeded my expectations! Vito the owner couldn’t be more friendly and accommodating! I had an issue that was a million percent my fault… I cut the corner too tight coming in and got stuck in the ditch. If this happens to you, just call Priority Towing and they’ll come get you out the way you went in!!! Vito was so helpful throughout that whole thing! The property is beautiful and peaceful. If you have dogs, there is a very well-kept backyard, but you can also walk them on the sidewalk of the main road. Would most definitely recommend this very cool and hip camp!

I haven't stayed at a site that has recent pics on the hip camp site. Don't expect it and you wont be disappointed. I LOVED THIS PLACE. I dont know any tent campers that would not love this place ( I know 0 Glampers). There are hidden treasures all over this property. We had a ball. Enjoy and DONT SKIP THE HONEY! There is reportedly an alligator in the pond. I didn't see it and we all left better than we arrived

All reviews were in accordance with what we expected and experienced - we had one overnight stop going south and returned for another 3 nights going north. We were the only ones at the RV side of the pond so it gave us lots of privacy. Lovely people, nice outside shower and no other “noise” than the traffic on the road. But that is just the way it is. Having alligators in the pond made it also exotic for us. An easy spot to find and close to the main highway too.

Great spot for tent camping under the trees

The space is great with perfect amenities (water, hot outside shower, portable john, etc just like in the listing). They keep everything super clean and well-maintained. Others mentioned road noise--it's convenient because it's right off the road. My site was probably the closest one to it. During the day, you can hear cars of course, but at night there was no noise and I slept great! Book this place!

Where to go

Lake Okeechobee

Situated right beside Clewiston, campers won’t have to travel far to enjoy the 730 square miles of Lake Okeechobee—the second largest freshwater lake in the United States. Lake Okeechobee boasts excellent bass fishing, scenic airboat tours, and bird watching. But swimming is not recommended thanks to the 30,000 gators that call the lake home. Take in the scenery by walking or biking sections of the 110-mile waterfront trail circling the lake. With cabin rentals, RV campgrounds, and tent campsites nearby, Hipcampers have plenty of choices to experience what Lake Okeechobee offers.

Everglades National Park

Rare wildlife species, old-growth cypress trees, and swampy wetlands are all under two hours away from Clewiston in Everglades National Park. This biodiverse area offers 1.5 million acres of boundless natural beauty. Drive Alligator Alley (I-75) or Tamiami Trail (U.S. 41) to view as much as possible. There are plenty of walking trails to get closer to the action, like the popular 14-mile Shark Valley Tram Trail. Roll the RV right into a campsite equipped with bathrooms, electrical hookups, dump stations, and water-filling stations. Or opt for a tent campground featuring fire rings and pit toilets.

Miami

Bursting with Art Deco-inspired architecture, a lively nightlife, world-renowned art galleries, and delicious Cuban food, Miami offers campers unforgettable experiences. Glamp at a luxurious yurt campsite with a queen-size bed and flush toilets before heading out to explore Little Havana’s upbeat Latin American community or visiting Wynwood Walls, an outdoor street museum showcasing vibrant murals by local and international artists. Make a pit stop at Bayfront Park, a 32-acre green space in the heart of downtown Miami, to wander through the waterfront walkway, see outdoor sculptures, or take the kids to the Lee & Tina Hills Playground.

When to go

Campers will find two distinct seasons in Clewiston, Florida: The dry season running from November until April, and the wet season starting in May and lasting until October. March, April, and May are the best months to visit, with March drawing the most crowds due to Spring Break and the Clewiston Sugar Festival. Most wildlife sightings occur in the dry season between November and April, so opt for those months to increase the chances of spotting a rare Florida Panther. Temperatures rarely dip below 70°F, so campers can expect warm, humid weather year-round.
