History of our location Count De Galvez awarded a land grant on Garcon Point to Antonio Garzon following his 1781 Siege of Pensacola in consideration of “his good services rendered as an interpreter to the Indians of Pensacola." The grant was held for 35 years before Maria Garzon, who survived husband Antonio, sold the land they called Garzon’s Point to Joseph (Jose) Bonifay.
The land uses were favorable for cattle grazing and turpentining through the 1800s. Many more pioneer families moved into the area and began their own business in the booming industrial opportunities of western Florida. It came to be known as Yellow River Marsh State Buffer Preserve on June 12, 2000, when it was purchased by the state of Florida to protect rare and environmentally sensitive lands, plants and animals.
Through generous donations, Preservation 2000 and the Florida Forever Program, more land was added to protect contiguous habitat of the Garcon Ecosystem.
Today Yellow River Marsh Preserve State Park provides recreational opportunities for hiking and nature study along the Great Florida Birding Trail among rare and endemic plant species and within one of Florida’s oldest multi-cultural frontiers.The preserve is located in Santa Rosa County on Garcon Point, which separates Escambia Bay from Blackwater Bay.
Nearly 20 rare and endangered species of plants 🪴 and animals make their homes along the bay and its wet prairies, dome swamps and flatwoods.

Our area does not offer a lot of RV camping, especially since Covid, and when our best friends needed a place to stay, we had to help. Our backyard if fairly large and shaded with old oaks, and at night the stars are super bright. The best part of our site, is it’s close proximity to lots of adventure.

Thanks to the Reviews here AND the quick Reply to my HipCamp message ~ booked an unexpected getaway. WHAT a great place to start the new year and experience the 1st full moon. The hosts were super accepting and accommodating of my late arrival. It's only an hour away to put your toes in the sand! And that sparkling clean, hot shower is a huge bonus after a day at the beach. Even got a guided tour of the property. Peaceful & private ~ perfection! The hosts' care for the campers promotes an obvious feel of community. CanNOT wait to go back in the spring!

This is a really unique spot that we absolutely loved. We tent camped here and really enjoyed being so close to the water. There’s plenty of shade and direct water access, though you do need to be careful—erosion makes getting down to the water (and back up) a bit tricky.
We appreciated the bathrooms and the small pavilion; it had just the right amount of essentials and saved us from having to carry extra gear. Overall, a great spot if you enjoy a more natural, waterside camping experience.

Joseph is a very nice gentleman. We were made to feel welcome immediately. The area is a series of projects, but it is nice land, and Joseph has a great vision for the area. We had a good position for our rig with electricity and running water at our site.
Just beware, the water comes from a well high in sulfur, so the smell might shock some people. It's perfectly okay. This is a camping area, not a start hotel.
Some of the area needs improvement, but I think he's getting those things going. I'm sure it'll be even nicer once he can get some projects finished.
Overall, good experience and a great host.

Weekend Trip to The Wandering Path
We had a wonderful time! We booked a yurt which was so nice, very spacious and the heater worked amazing - we were there for 2 nights in the cold/rain but that didn't put a damper on it at all.
Beautiful property, lots of trails and the prettiest beach right on the river that you can see from a lot of the camp sites.
Great communication from the owner!
We will definitely be back!

The camp site for my son and I was exactly what we were looking for. It had a great location close to the water and was not far from the parking area. The site was clean and we really enjoyed cooking over the open fire pit. My son thought the solar power string lights was a good addition. Another part we both liked was the outdoor kitchen that’s available for anyone to use. The lighting, sink, and countertop area made it so easy for us to clean up after cooking on the fire. We also liked that there was a shower and restroom available as well. You can’t beat the price for all that is available. Definitely will be coming back.

Weekend Trip to Malakai 🏕 different by design
We loved this peaceful oasis in Pensacola! Joe is SO COOL and was such a gracious host to us. He was very accommodating, and even helped me with my car! This is a special site he's created with a lot of heart and love and it shows. Malachi is in fact different by design. We will totally come back. The glamping tent structure served us well and it was charming. Lots of places to explore. Thank you so much Joe you rock!!

Camping near Milton guide
Where to go
Big Lagoon State Park
On the northern shores of the Gulf of Mexico, Big Lagoon State Park covers more than 700 acres of upland habitats, including saltwater tidal marshes and a coastal forest of pine flatwoods. Nearby beach campsites and cabin rentals offer views of the Gulf, plus the opportunity to check out more than 20 species of migratory birds, which stop through the area. The park is also a starting and ending point for the Florida Circumnavigational Saltwater Paddling Trail, a 1,500-mile sea-kayaking route that takes paddlers across the state.
Blackwater River State Forest
The largest forest in Florida, Blackwater is a dream destination for hikers, kayakers, cyclists, and campers thanks to dozens of creeks and streams spanning the park’s ecosystem of longleaf pine, scrub oak, and wiregrass. It’s a great destination for day trip paddles and overnight voyages, with many private forest campsites near streams and the main river.
Escribano Point Wildlife Management Area
Spanning 10 miles of Florida coastline on Blackwater Bay, Escribano Point is a great launch point for paddlers and anglers to explore the park’s bays, river swamps, and estuaries, which support unique coastal habitats and local species like black bears. Hipcampers staying at one of Escribano Point’s tent campsites (or at a nearby campground or RV site) should be aware of bears in the area, especially when storing food.
When to go
Like all of Florida, Milton is known for being warm and humid year-round. With July temperatures regularly reaching well into the 90s, summer can be a great time to hit the water and escape the heat, but it’s best to be aware of hurricane threats during this time. Heatstroke and dehydration are also concerns—always check to see if a park or preserve has safe drinking water, and pack a supply if not. Winters in Florida are still rather mild, with even cold January days only reaching an average low of 40°F. For this reason, winter RV camping is especially popular.
