Recognizing the beauty Lake Pan has to offer, the current owners revitalized Idlewild in 2022 welcoming residents and tourists alike to enjoy the natural beauty and fishing opportunities. In addition to cabin renovations and paved RV sites, Idlewild now features premium amenities including pontoon boat rentals, bait and tackle, a boat launch, boat slips, vending, recreational area, laundry machines, an on-site café, pool-side cabanas, and the most spectacular views of Lake Pan while sitting around the gas-fired fire pit.

Weekend Trip to Cabin Glamping
Colleen is a wonderful host. The cabin is cozy and well-built - kept critters and rain outside. The window AC unit was a life saver in the FL summer heat. The outdoor shower was heated. - a nice, intentional touch that made a world of difference coming back from fishing in Ozello State Park. The magic of this cabin is at dawn and dusk. The crickets, frogs, and birds make a beautiful symphony in the cool stillness. Which can be enjoyed on the patio on the rocking chair. Bait and tackle, groceries, and restaurants all withing reasonable driving distance. Plenty of boat ramps and fishing around.
I absolutely loved my stay.

This piece of land is well loved and cared for by pure hearted stewards. Do yourself a favor and stay here! There is nothing like a piece of nature that is being well loved and just wants to love you back. The camper was a perfect nights sleep! I usually sleep restlessly in a new place. But here is slept soundly with only one small waking event. Between the bathroom, shower and kitchen setup they have everything I need to take of myself. I looming forward to returning!
