1 night at Kokomo Farms

I loved the treehouse on Trudy’s land. It was the most beautiful and fun experience. All the animals are so friendly and adorable. & the pizza night was fantastic!!

Weekend Trip to Cabins On The Corner-Steinhatchee

We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin was lovely and we had a relaxing stay. The owners were very nice and helpful! If there was any suggestion, it would be one of the following. Put a picnic table by the fire pit area for those cooking over the fire to eat at OR make a second fire pit behind the cabins in that grass area. That way it's closer to the cabin for easier access of cooking/eating. That was a super minor thing and will definitely stay there again when visiting!

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

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.

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!

2 nights at Suwannee River Glamping

This is the best Hipcamp experience I have had. A secluded boondock spot alongside the majestic Suwanee River and next to the Florida Trail. Beautiful scenery and wonderful hiking trail without having to leave your site.

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.

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.

Weekend Trip to Bowman's Landing

In the process of planning another trip to the little slice of heaven. Absolutely gorgeous spot, spent all day swimming in the river. The bathroom was clean, the hosts were so friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. I’d check in with them when you get there- we were too excited and set up, & started swimming. They offered to drop us off at the start of the river which would’ve been very cool but it was too late in the day & we made the mistake of only booking a single night. I’d also put in Bowman’s landing into the GPS and not the listed coordinates.. that will position you across the river… Excited to come back in a few weeks!!

Weekend Trip to Bowman's Landing

We enjoyed our stay at the cabins. It was so beautiful being right by the water. Our hosts were so welcoming and accommodating.

2 nights at Bowman's Landing

Bowman’s is a beautifully secluded campground on the Santa Fe River. Filled with many tall trees, a canoe/kayak launch, and fishing, several small cabins overlook the river. Only two sites available for RV’s. Two very well maintained bathrooms with showers. Fire pits and picnic tables at each site. Bowman’s is well situated in Fort White close to at least three natural springs. Cons include a very narrow road/bridge leading to the campground and no dump station.

1 night at Glenn Farm

This is my second time staying here. I love the land, it’s so beautiful and spacious. Tom and Judy are very kind and always make me feel welcomed. This time I stayed next to the cave and it was so magical! Would definitely recommend this spot.

Weekend Trip to Green Fairy Camp

The host goes out of her way to make sure you have everything you need - from electrical adapters, sundries one might forget, and the little barn with half bath, fridge, and outdoor shower transforms this from a simple piece of land to a camping destination with great amenities! It was a super short bike ride to the South entrance of the ichetucknee springs State Park where you park to paddle the river. One should be comfortable in a rural environment and appreciate the sounds of nature and neighbors. At 10:00 p.m. it appears the neighbors all have an unset agreement because it got dead quiet!

3 nights at Bowman's Landing

Very quiet, idyllic site along the river. Everything was extremely clean. Great place to unplug.

Weekend Trip to Two Larks Camp & RV

Great place to stop for the night very quiet and relaxing.

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.

Suwannee River Glamping

7 sites · RVs, Tents6 acres · White Springs, FL

In 1990 the State of Florida banned logging within 1,000 feet of the Suwannee River so Southeast Timberlands sold off it's holdings and we were lucky enough to purchase 6 acres and 444 feet of riverfront. A designated "Pristine Scenic Waterway" with very steep banks, the Suwannee is one of the few"wild" rivers left in the United States and can rise over 30 feet to flood stage almost overnight; yet due to its unique topography we can access it no matter how high or low the water. The Forest Service has bought up the surrounding lots, creating a 10 mile Conservation corridor supporting the National Scenic Florida Trail, it's clearly marked footpaths and natural attractions. To that end, we have left the old growth upland forest the way we found it. The campsite is a natural feature as is the Zen deck and canoe launch, a swale draining the ridge. The campsite is level, the lane to the river slopes gently dropping in elevation 20 feet over 1,000 in making it easy for able bodied guests to navigate their way to the white sugar sand beach. We want to share our retreat with those who are looking for a real wilderness experience in an exclusive private setting. A Waiver of Liability is required by all guests as the Wilderness is an inherently dangerous place. We only offer one accommodation per weekend with a maximum of 8 people so our guests can have the seclusion they desire and be free to enjoy the natural wonder of the woodland experience in any manner they choose.
