Weekend Trip to Gateway Trails

The hosts were kind and courteous,cleared a spot just so we could have privacey,went above and beyond..very clean campsites,very peaceful atmosphere ..the picnic table and fire pit were very convenient and nice..I would definitely recommend this camp site

1 night at The Red Barn

This place is a hidden gem. Andrew has thought of everything to make this place comfortable. I stayed in Tent site C, the red barn, and used it mostly as my charging station and lounge area. I pitched my tent right next to it. The grounds are well lit, shower was hot and toilet clean. It was perfect for my stay with my dog. I recommend downloading the app Merlin Bird ID to name the morning choir of birds in the area. It was a peaceful stay. We will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Gateway Trails

The boondocking site was just the right fit for that leg of my travels. Self contained toyhauler and Chihuahua mix. Once the door closed maybe if semi drove past may I have heard it. Host's were talkative quite pleasant and informative. Stay again, sure would.

Weekend Trip to Gateway Trails

Had a beautiful night at Suzette’s campground very wonderful people. I would definitely stay there again.

3 nights at Gateway Trails

This was my second trip to Gateway Trails, first was a solo trip and this time, friends came to enjoy! This site was new to me but was equally wonderful. The campsite was so spacious and yet private and protected, we felt perfectly safe walking around at any time of the day or evening. The site-mentioned outhouse was pristine upon arrival, our purchased firewood was stacked so carefully by the perimeter of our site so it wouldn’t impede tent setup, and the fire pit and table were clean and ready to go! We had less bug friends than I’ve ever seen at a campsite, plenty of space right next to the potable water to set up a portable shower, and the stars at night were clear and bright, deep in the heart of Florida (ten points to you if you know that adjusted lyric). Mr. Jay came to greet us and brought over his adorable pup to say hello as well. It’s been two years since I’ve been to their campsite, and he still remembered me (even after all their fully booked months!) and greeted us all with such kindness. We were bummed we didn’t get to see Mrs. Suzette but respectfully might request a celebrity appearance next time we come down! Thank you Gateway Trails for a fun, safe, and gorgeous camping trip, we cannot wait to come back.

Excellent spot !! Big site with 30 amp and water hookups. Dump station on property as well. Bulls docking was an excellent site!! Thank you Jay and Suzette.

Weekend Trip to Larry & Sheila's Blackwater Getaway

We lucked out here. We had a quiet weekend (as you can with THREE boys 12,13,13). Sheila and Larry were so friendly, they stopped in a bit after we arrived. We were able to chat a bit while we were allowing the boys to be boys… sometimes it’s hard to be able to. It was so refreshing for me to enjoy nature and let the boys do the work and run like heathens for once. We will most definitely be back to this beautiful piece of property.

1 night at Gateway Trails

Extremely understanding and kind. Clean and safe feeling, comfortable and quiet. I hear bathhouse is near completion thus making this site even more so amazing for family getaways.

3 nights at Gateway Trails

This is a beautiful, private campsite. I love waking up to the roosters, trees and solitude. The walk in is very short and well worth it. Hosts are kind. Highly recommend this place.

Weekend Trip to Larry & Sheila's Blackwater Getaway

Everything was great! Sheila and her husband were very nice and helpful. The river was beautiful and having a bathroom was awesome! Will stay again if we are ever in the area in the future.

1 night at Gateway Trails

Nice location set back in the trees. Jay was friendly and helpful. Not much road noise, very quiet except for birds, occasional rooster crowing and donkey braying. Good birding with a lot of native plants and transitional habitat.

Weekend Trip to Larry & Sheila's Blackwater Getaway

Great host, clean, and peaceful. Great weekend spot.

Weekend Trip to Larry & Sheila's Blackwater Getaway

Camped Valentine’s weekend… Lots of space. When we got there, someone else was in our space, #2, so we had to go to space #1, which is right in front of the pavilion. While I did not care for that so much, it ended up being fine. The owner, Larry, greeted us upon arrival and was helpful in getting us parked correctly. All hookups were great. Clean bathroom and outdoor shower. Loved loved this shower!!!!! Quiet and peaceful. Be careful getting down to the spots as the road is a bit bumpy. Few steps down to the river where you can relax and fish/swim. Pavilion has an outdoor sink/tables/chairs/smoker-grill. All in all a very nice time…..thank you, Larry, for our sticker!
