Absolutely fantastic hipcamp, this is was the exact reason why we love to hipcamp: connection, safety, and adventure. By far my favorite so far. The host was so lovely and immediately made this place feel safe and like home. From the thoughtful details like a tree swing and coffee station to the cozy cabin itself with a fire pit, we felt at home miles from our own. I will most definitely be back with my family and friends.

Perfect for our large group gathering. Between the bedrooms, sofas (so many sofas!), and tent spots, there was more than enough space for everyone. It got close to freezing, so we loved being able to gather inside or by the fire pit. A beautiful and spot with tons of space both indoors and outside!

I loved the cabin and the property. There were people around enough to point us in the right direction for the bathroom but still we had the place to ourselves. We were dreaming of the next time we could go back on the car ride home.

It was absolutely beautiful out there. Quiet and in the heart of natural florida and Seminole lands on the Santa fe river. Easy check in and clean cabin. Perfect little spot to stay for a nite or a few! Comfort station with coffee was the best. Also had games and a cook station with grills and smokers for use! Will definitely stay here again. And also just a quick 10 minute trip to the springs for tubing swimming ect.

Cabin 8 was perfect for my husband, 2 kids, dog, and I! The host couldn’t have been kinder or more welcoming, he even let my kids feed the chickens with him. We’re already talking about coming back and staying longer!
