Camp Declan is a rare find: a private, breezy, six-acre lakefront retreat that feels like stepping into classic “Old Florida,” where the air is clean, the nights are quiet, and nature is always part of the experience.
Set under a canopy of Live Oak trees draped with Spanish moss and stretching along nearly 600 feet of freshwater shoreline, this is a place where mornings start with birdsong, afternoons drift by on the dock, and evenings end around the fire pit under open skies. Fish, paddle, swim, grill, relax — or do nothing at all while napping in one of several hammocks. The lake and floating dock are always the centerpiece of life here.
The property includes three thoughtfully designed buildings:
Cabin – comfortable air-conditioned sleeping quarters with private bathroom
Bunkhouse – group-friendly lodging (six adult-sized bunkbed sets) with bathroom
Cabana – the social hub with outdoor bar, kitchen, commercial ice machine and hangout space
Together, Camp Declan comfortably hosts up to 18 overnight guests and is ideal for families, youth retreats, reunions, fishing buddies, retreat weekends, and anyone seeking a down-to-earth, unplugged getaway with real space to spread out.
Outdoors, guests enjoy:
• Large floating dock
• Fire pit and gathering areas
• Volleyball, badminton, frisbees and washer toss (think cornhole)
• Canoeing, kayaking and lake swimming
• Anchored swim raft
• Fully fenced, private grounds
Indoors and out, you’ll find:
• Fully equipped kitchen
• Outdoor kitchen and bar
• Hot indoor and outdoor showers
• Clean bathrooms in every building
This is not a resort — it’s a private fish-camp-style escape where comfort meets authenticity. If you’re looking for polished luxury, this may not be your place. If you’re looking for privacy, ample outdoor space, water access for your boat or jet ski, and a true Florida lake experience, Camp Declan delivers in a way few properties can.

The Grist Mill is also available for rent too! This is a very romantic, yet rustic getaway equipped with a half bath as well. Very secluded and private overlooking the spring on one side and the water fall on the other. Sit outside on the deck and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature and at night the sound of the waterfall will lull you to sleep. The shower is located in the Lodge bathhouse.

The fishing is amazing in these parts, so if you are an angler, come and visit.
We have .75 miles of frontage on the Orange Creek. The creek flows into Lake Ocklawaha which just so happens to be one of the best bass fishing lakes in the USA. In fact, ten-pound bass are not uncommon from the Lake Ocklawaha River in the winter. Recently (2020), a 17.2-pound bass was caught there. The combined Ocklawaha and St. Johns drainage basin is possibly the most significant river-estuary waterway of Florida. This water system is of legendary reputation among anglers of largemouth bass who seek 10 pound plus trophy fish.
Conveniently located between Ocala and Gainesville in the heart of Orange Springs, Florida, Camp Seminole Spring is perfectly located for the traveler who wants to really connect with nature. It appears to be ‘off the beaten path’, yet it is close enough to civilization so that even the most seasoned camper can make a quick run to store should he or she need something not found in nature.
Camp Seminole Spring is mid-way (approx.. 22 miles) between Ocala and Gainesville, Florida, which are two thriving cities in this area of Florida. Ocala, the ‘horse capital of the world’ showcases a brand new multi-billion-dollar equestrian center which draws people from all over the world.
This scenic property has an artesian spring which pushes out 1.6 million gallons of water per day rated among the top three percent of water in the world with an 8.4 natural pH. This water fills the pond and then continues on to flow into Orange Creek.
Camp Seminole Springs was established in the 1940’s as a honeymoon resort and campground. The founders built a heart-shaped ‘pond-spring’ which is filled with the crystal-clear water pushed out from the spring where guests can lounge by the beach or gaze down into the bottom through the glass-like water or take a refreshing swim.
At the top of the hill overlooking the heart-shaped spring, one will find the rustic Great Lodge where guests can come and mingle with each other, enjoy a relaxing conversation and a drink on the veranda or just sit and watch the activity in and around the spring.

We throughly enjoyed our time. The canoes, kayaks and bunk house for the kids were great. Had a slight issue with the water, but the host got it fixed immediately. If you are looking for a spotless 5 stay luxury camping destination, this is not for you but has all the amenities you need. We hope to stay again.

1 night at Camp Seminole Springs
We stayed for one night over New Year’s and had a nice, quiet experience. The views were beautiful, and the tent and surrounding area were really well done. The host was very kind and stopped by with plenty of firewood to help keep us warm, which we really appreciated.
The only downside was that the bathroom on our side of the tents wasn’t working, but luckily we were with friends and were able to share theirs. Also, the heaters in both tents didn’t work well enough to warm the space, and it got quite cold inside. I’d recommend bringing your own heater if you’re visiting during colder weather.
Overall, the tent and porch are well constructed, and it’s a great spot for a peaceful getaway. I would still recommend it for a short escape.

We had an amazing stay. The property was quiet with giant shaded trees and unbelievable stars at night. Our teens even swam in the spring even though it was too cold outside, then ran to the lodge for a hot shower. We loved sitting by the spring on the dock and with our feet dangling over the edge, and wished we had brought floats or our inflatable paddle board.
The canvas tent was huge and comfortable, with shelves, heaters, a picnic table on the deck, and a bathroom attached outside. Just note the shower there is cold water only. The three canvas tents overlooking the spring are close together, so we were glad our friends rented the tent beside us. There were also lots of great tent-camping spots, and the old grist mill building looked like an awesome future option.
The river/creek was too low to kayak or fish, but we enjoyed exploring the property. The sand boil was one of the coolest things we’ve ever seen. Make sure you find it. The kids sank almost to their chests, the sand was exfoliating, and we were completely mesmerized.
Perry was very accessible and helpful with all our questions before the stay. Fantastic spot.

We absolutely loved this wonderful piece of Old Florida. So peaceful, beautiful and interesting. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring tracks with the dogs and looking for animals. We saw many deer tracks but no deer, perhaps next time. The tent was extremely spacious and our view from the deck over the spring was wonderful. Cold showers at this time of year we're most welcome.

Weekend Trip to Camp Seminole Springs
Nice quick getaway spot! Booked at the last minute and we had a great time. The tents were spacious and have private bathrooms with flushing toilet and shower for each spot. 4 outlets inside and a small lamp. The deck overlooking the spring was so nice in the evenings just to sit and unwind.
We went for a walk down the trail but we couldn't find the sand boil which was disappointing. The trail is a little rough but it's marked by orange flags. I'm pretty sure we were in the right area just couldn't find it. Anyway swimming in the spring was lovely and refreshing on a hot day. My goal was just to get away and absorb some peace and quiet which I definitely did.
Dollar general located really close but Perry had firewood for sale on site.
Overall great experience!

Great stay on Perry’s land. The Spring Glamping tent was perfect. They have power and water and even your own private full bathroom attached. The Seminole Spring and Orange creek with trails that connect are centrally located and are easy hikes. This place is incredibly amazing! Highly recommended!
This is our third trip. Thanks Perry!

Incredible nature and the perfect Spring Glamping Tent at Camp Seminole Springs! Perry is an excellent host and his land is a great place to unwind and leave the world behind. Beautiful Spring and hiking trails down to and along the scenic Orange Creek. All very centrally located and easy to hike. This is our second time staying here. Definitely will be back! Thanks Perry!
