Weekend Trip to Moonlit Avenue

Sharon and her campsite are exceptional! There is ample space for a group and secluded for two. We camped with her last year and since she’s added a bathhouse and a full working toilet! The shower is ran off spring water (no hot water) which is perfect after spending the day in the sun or at the springs! Springs are conveniently located, with there also being a boat/kayak launch two minutes down the road! Would recommend her spot to anyone and we will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Moonlit Avenue

I can’t say enough good thinks about Sharon - super responsive, helpful, points you to fun things to do; she was wonderful and made my stay that much more enjoyable. And of course a lovely spot, loads of room to spread out if you’re a group and quiet. The bathhouse/shower is definitely rustic but everything worked great!

2 nights at Bowman's Landing

Better than anticipated and we anticipated a lot!!! It was perfect.

2 nights at Neal’s Nest

Was a great stay for a few nights! We felt safe in their gated yard and they had TONS of yard for the doggos to play and run around freely. They include a few fun things to do such as a volleyball net, grilling equipment, gas full hookups for RVs and we felt welcome right away so we decided to extend our stay. There is a 31 mile trail to run on and walk the dogs about 20 mins away. The only downfall was there is so many flies all over and maybe it’s just a Florida thing but we didn’t let it ruin our stay ! 9:/10 recommend!

4 nights at Big Oaks Dog And Horse Camping

We loved camping at Jessica's farm. We parked under a large beautiful oak tree. Jessica quickly responded to a couple questions that we had. Nice quiet site. Short commute to the towns of Bronson or Williston. Keep your eyes open, you may be greeted by the cutest pot bellied pig who loves scratches when you are using the dump station.

1 night at 4A River Camp

Beautiful spot, perfectly easy directions and set up.

4 nights at Glenn Farm

The Glenn Farm is such a beautiful property with amazing sunsets and a peaceful relaxing vibe. We loved everything about it. The animals are so fun to watch and be around.

Weekend Trip to Bowman's Landing

Weekend Trip to Neal’s Nest

It was a cute little setup! AC worked well and neighbors were nice. Only thing is we had to kill some brown widow spiders that were on the porch and close to the chairs under the table. I also paid for two bundles of firewood and never got them.

Weekend Trip to Bowman's Landing

Bowmans Landing was everything and more than we expected! We stayed in cabin 7. It was a short walk to the river and it wasn't a far walk to the showers/bathroom. The grounds were family friendly and beautiful! I will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Bowman's Landing

The cabin was wonderful and the location perfect. We've really loved how kind and welcoming the community has been for our family.

1 night at Caceres Organic Blueberry Farms

I loved staying here. It was very peaceful, and quiet. Great view, easy to get too. Outdoor shower was excellent. Would absolutely stay again.

4 nights at Bowman's Landing

This is my second time camping for 4 days at the primitive sites while recreating in the area. I've stayed at a handful of hip camp stites over the years in the area and bowman's landing is my favorite so far! Showers, bathrooms, fridge, wifi area really upgrades the camping experience. And I love being able to swim off the dock in the mornings and camping right on the river. I'll definitely be back again!

1 night at Free to Be Acres

Very nice campsite. It was clean, private and in a great place.

1 night at Glenn Farm

Tom and Judy were the best hosts by far amazing cool people. And very beautiful land me and my bf absolutely loved it we had the whole place to ourselves and Tom took us up to the 200 year old house and gave us a little tour of it and the cave. We got to feed the cows and goats!! It was a very cool experience i definitely will go again.

1 night at Caceres Organic Blueberry Farms

Richard land Is Awesome stargazing at night through the tent the little Lake was awesome the blueberries are as big as quarters highly recommend this spot

Weekend Trip to 4A River Camp

(Vague review to protect privacy.) There was an unfortunate event before we arrived. It was no one’s fault and nothing could be done to change it. Our host (Michael) communicated to us early and often. He was accommodating and polite. I also believe he was in full contact with the previous campers, as well. In the end, it was resolved smoothly and all parties were happy. I don’t think many other Hipcamp hosts would have put in that much work for something they couldn’t control and wasn’t their fault. I will absolutely return!

Weekend Trip to Royal Springs Riverfront Retreat

Great location, right on the water and walking distance from royal spring. Plus has everything you need and then some. Multiple full hook ups with massive space. Only thing I didnt like is I didnt catch ass much as I would have like but thats on me.

Weekend Trip to Glenn Farm

We stayed at Dunagan’s Meadow and had a WONDERFUL time. Tom and Judy are fantastic hosts. They make you feel like family. ❤️ We got the tour of their property and when we got to the meadow we saw them round up the cattle to put in the other pasture. The sheep were great as were the donkeys. The stars at night were beautiful! We will definitely come back. Thanks so much for an amazing long weekend trip.

Suwannee River Rendezvous

94 sites · RVs, Tents40 acres · Mayo, FL

Frank Page purchased the Suwannee River Rendezvous Resort & Campground in 2008 which included the original seven acres of the lower portion of the Rendezvous. At that time there were only a few buildings and the primitive campground area. Frank started cleaning the area and stabilizing all the buildings. In 2009 another 20 acres was purchased, which is now considered the upper area of the Rendezvous. In 2010, another seven acres were added to the property. Frank planned and constructed the Upper Rendezvous area which was completed in 2012 and added 136 RV sites as well as the dog park, barn and pigeon coop. The dog park has five sections, for both small and large dogs, with ample room to run. Suwannee River Rendezvous Resort & Campground Pool Frank began raising pigeons in 2012. The first pigeons purchased were homing pigeons, which started the Pigeon Races that are still a fun, family favorite event on Saturday afternoons. Frank also bought and started raising other pigeons, the Birmingham Roller. Birmingham Rollers are a very popular breed of domesticated pigeons that originated in Birmingham, England, where they were developed via selective breeding for their ability to do rapid backward somersaults while flying. You can often see them flying around the Upper Rendezvous in the mornings and afternoons. These pigeons are used for our weekly Pigeon Races.

Paradise Park and River Retreat

2 sites · RVs1 acre · Old Town, FL

My father bought the property next door to the RV sites over 30 yrs ago. After his passing, my husband and I acquired the property. We initially were going to be snowbirds and make this our winter vacation home. After much thought and many winters in PA, we decided to sell our home and make the move south. It was a difficult decision to leave our family, friends and what was comfortable to us. About 3 years after our move, our neighbor asked if we were interested in his property. My husband Jeff and I discussed it and thought it would be a great idea to have a little more land. To make a long story short, that land somehow became Paradise Park River Retreat. My husband and I love this area and wanted to share it with other people who love being outdoors. We hope you'll come and visit Old Pine Landing and see the beauty and uniqueness that our little piece of paradise has to offer.

Glenn Farm

7 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents125 acres · Fort White, FL

The farm you’re camping on is one of the last family farms remaining in Columbia County and is named Glenn Farm after DV Glenn who married Hettie Lou Niblack in the 1930’s. Over the last 150 years it has been farmed by some of the county’s oldest families such as the Niblack and Ellis families. When DV Glenn came to Florida from his farm in Cairo, GA he took over the portion of the Niblack farm that was inherited by his wife Hettie Lou. At that time he was running native Florida cattle on over 6000 acres. Unfortunately, In 1951 he was killed in a hunting accident leaving his wife with the farm and 4 children (ages 4-11). In order to survive, Hettie Lou Niblack Glenn was forced to sell 5000 acres at $25 an acre. Holding a bachelors degree from Florida State College for Women, she was able to secure a job at the University of Florida as a secretary and with the money from the land sale she was able to raise her four children. Of the original farm, 600 acres remain intact and the Glenn family is trying to keep the farm as an agricultural operation. Your campsite is 1 of 4 spots (Arrowhead Sink, Dunagan’s Meadow, North Hall Pasture or Magnolia Sink). We also have a 1 bedroom Tiny home that used to be the farm office. Dunagan’s meadow is a pasture behind the old farmhouse (built in 1824), Magnolia sink and The North Hall Pasture are also on the main farm while Arrowhead Sink is on the edge of a hayfield about a mile down a dirt road. Glenn Farm is a place to come relax and experience a world that is rapidly disappearing. It is not a commercial campground.

The Bird Ranch

Parking is only available at the bottom of the driveway for tent campers. All tent sites are less than a 5 minute hike up the trails. There is plenty of firewood available after 3 hurricanes in a year's time. The Bird Ranch is 4 acres of peaceful nature. We have 3 pioneer sites (2 with fire pits), and one RV hook-up (30 Amp power and water) to choose from. We never really know what wildlife is wondering around or when they might pop up. Rest assure though; there are always birds singing, crickets chirping, frogs croaking, owls hooting, and we can even hear the neighboring pigs, chickens, cows, goats and dogs from time to time. I will take all that over city noise any day of the week! The Gofer Turtles are protected wildlife here, but please do not disturb ANY of the animals or their homes. We have had kids destroy a turtle's home before, so please be mindful. The property has trails, an open field for games, and plenty of day outings to do. There are 2 natural springs (Royal Springs and Little River Springs) off the Suwannee River that are each a 10-minute drive. Branford Springs and Troy Springs are within 20 minutes. You can float down the Ichetucknee River on an innertube (seasonal), catch a local rodeo just down Hwy 129 or take a 3 hour round trip bike ride on the Suwannee River Greenway. The Mystic Jungle Educational Facility is a quick 15 minutes up Hwy 129 towards Live Oak, where you can learn about their wild animals on a guided tour, but they are only open on Saturdays. Cedar Key is a quiet little town 1.5 hours away with cute shops and restaurants for a nice day trip ***(also very messed up from hurricanes last year, so no promises)***. They roll up the streets after sunset; but what a beautiful sunset! There are also a few horseback riding ranches within 20 minutes from the property and if you're really adventurous and want to ride a camel; Lonesome Chicken Camel Ranch is less than an hour away. Call ahead to make sure they are open. Please be courteous of your fellow campers and my neighbors, by adhering to a 10 pm noise maintenance.
