Had a great 2 days staying in our rv at Jerry’s spot with 5 kids (4 being teenagers). Loved having the dock area to fish from, launch our paddle boards. Was nice to be able to tie up our boards and leave them on the water inside the dock slip area. Plenty of space for everyone to roam. The wash sink is a nice bonus I didn’t realize I needed in my life of camping lol. Best part we saw a momma and baby manatee swim by as we were hanging on the dock.

Absolutely incredible stay! The Treehouse Cabin Retreat exceeded every expectation the perfect mix of comfort and nature. The cabin and treehouse are spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully stocked with everything you might need, from kitchen essentials to comfy bedding. The property is peaceful, surrounded by towering trees and the soothing sounds of nature.
We loved the outdoor shower under the stars, the firepit for s’mores, and the hammocks for lazy afternoons. It’s close to the Suwannee River and crystal-clear springs, which made day trips for swimming and kayaking so easy. The host was responsive, kind, and made everything simple from start to finish.
If you’re looking to unwind, reconnect, and enjoy a unique glamping experience this place is pure magic. We’re already planning to come back!

What a fantastic find! Barely an hour from Gainesville, and all of 20 minutes from High Springs, this site offered privacy, beauty, quiet, and easy accessibility for swimming and paddling! This is a great site for two or for gaggle of folks, and I'd love to go back with the family. We paddled every morning, and even the current wasn't an issue going up-stream. The water near the property was extremely clear and shallow enough (in early October) for just wading or floating right off the shore/boat house. Considering the beautiful weather, we actually found it odd how quiet this strip of the river was - where were all the people?! We weren't complaining, though. Only item that wasn't fully as "advertised," was the camp sink which was functional, but the water just empties at the base of the sink and onto your feet. We didn't use it. Instructions from the host were clear, and they maintained good communication through the stay.

Jessica is extremely nice and goes above and beyond to make sure that you’re happy and doing well! They do their thing around their place but never intrude unless asked a question. It is obviously a working farm so don’t take offense to them doing things fairly close to you. Overall easy access, strong power supply and water with sewer as well which was nice if needed. We are fully self contained and didn’t need. Highly recommend!

Camping on Jerry’s land was an absolute delight! The property was incredibly well kept—clean, organized, and clearly cared for with pride. The highlight for us was the beautiful river that runs alongside the site. It added a peaceful, scenic backdrop to our stay and was perfect for relaxing by the water or enjoying a quiet morning coffee. Whether you're looking for a serene escape or a base for outdoor adventures, Jerry’s land is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend!

We absolutely LOVED our stay! We chose this location for a birthday camping trip and could have had a better spot! The location is convenient and quiet. We enjoyed the access to the Santa Fe and Ichetucknee Rivers. The site was clean and as described. The host was communicative and friendly. Having sunrise breakfast and coffee on the river was top tier. Enjoying all the stars and the cicadas at night was just as cozy! I will stay at this site every chance I get. 10/10!

We had a very relaxing time on our trip . The property is in a beautiful location on the Santa Fe River, the camper parking under pavilion with full hook up was just perfect. We enjoyed the floating boat dock so much ; morning coffee, played dominos at table on covered dock, fishing and swimming. The water is cool, clear and lovely much like Itchetucknee spring. We road our e- bikes all over the neighborhood, roads are packed sand and shaded , saw many deer and birds. Tubing in the neighborhood park was fabulous, no crowds, no lines. Left a bike at Point Park (end of tube run), took truck and all our tubes to beginning at Hodor park and got on. Would love to visit again.

Maribella's Corner is a wonderful shady spot with full RV hookups. We have been here several times in our 26' Vintage GMC while visiting a very good friend that lives in the neighborhood. I would recommend Maribella's Corner to anyone looking for a nice peaceful place to stay with your RV.

We had an awesome time at this campsite. It is totally private and plenty of room for your fifth wheel, tubes, and boat. My 2 dachshunds were in heaven with all the space they had to run. The property is rustic but has everything: gas grill, air compressor, outside lighting, boat dock with ladder. It is in a great location within the neighborhood that has private access to the River for boating and tubing. I would stay here every year for our annual Memorial Day weekend! Thanks Jerry

We had a great time. The lot was huge, the covered pad we parked under was really nice and came in super handy since it rained the first 2 days we were there. It had electric, water & sewer hookup and the view of the Santa Fe River from our site was spectacular. We were on the parking pad #1 for reference. The boat dock was our favorite place. We spent 90% of our time sitting on the dock watching the mullet jump, the turtles swim by and the other boaters ride by. Watching the sunrise and sunsets were my favorite. We took our boat and paddle boards and paddled up the river and down river. Down river took us to the Itchnatucknee River which is a must see, crystal clear spring fed river. Directions were good, just don't use Apple Maps like I did, you won't get there if you do, use Google maps like they tell you. We would definitely go back. One piece of advice tho.....be mindful of the ticks and fleas, my husband and I both had ticks on us and definitely make sure your animals, if you bring any, have flea and tick stuff on them. Great place!!

We stayed at Maribel’s for 3 nights. It’s a great place to park and explore the surrounding area. We were a few blocks from the Suwannee River. We were a few miles from Fanning Springs State Park that has a beautiful 72 degree swimming area. There are water and electrical hookups plus a dumping station for when you leave. Our hosts Maribel and Dano went out of their way to make sure we got situated.

We loved this hip camp. It is very secluded with a great view of the water. It was nice to have all the hookups and roof for protection. It made setting up and tearing down very easy. We enjoyed the quiet and did a little fishing, caught a few smaller fish. We would definitely recommend. Direction and check in very easy

We loved staying here. We had lots of privacy and felt very safe. The community and its parks are an amazing feature. We were able to launch directly on the Ichetucknee River and on into the state park. It was serene. Being on the river was lovely. In the evening we started a fire as we watched deer cruise on through the property across the river. Host had great communication. Being in a covered site with full hookups was an awesome feature. There were games and kayaks for rent if needed. Our dog loved it too! Highly recommend.

Maribel and Dano were wonderful hosts. Lived around the corner and came to check on us but was not at all TOO present. The neighbors were all lovely except for one “Karen” - but Maribel and Dani nipped that bud immediately. Did some fishing at the dock and enjoy the quiet countryside bliss. Price was a huge plus for full hook ups! Be back soon!
