Honestly most amazing vibe, Shan is awesome! We had a 2 flats on the way in didn't make it in until way late they were amazingly understanding and helped us get set up late at night. We have pets and a toddler and we do not feel like a bother which is a huge plus...He's over there working in his area every morning but totally friendly and non invasive, even rescued my senior escape artist dog (19 ish years old) who wander off and brought him back to me..... The quiet secluded location is amazing, the wildlife is astounding and oh the stars talk about beautiful..... This is exactly what out family needed to unplug and unwind. The water pressure is great, no issues at all with anything here. Secluded but an amazing area and the over all feel is 100% freedom!!! I absolutely love this location! 10/10 recommend!!!

I loved staying here! The cabin was excellent and the property is beautiful. You can tell a lot of work was put into this property. We had an excellent time here with our dog and close by to some cool hikes and a nature drive near the Suwannee River. A great place to escape and have a few beers and smores.

Campsite was great. Beautiful view and nice deck and nice level site with gravel power and water were great! Only downfall was if you parked with your rv facing the water the sewer hook up was in the front of camper but if you had a long enough hose it was fine just not ideal I'd give it a 9 out of ten and would return

Weekend Trip to Gulf Coast RV Site

First time back since hurricane Helene completely leveled this Hipcamp and the entire town of Keaton Beach. The owners have worked very hard to make this a nice place again. They’ve filled in a nice level area with rock for parking, added a brand new large deck out over the water, added trees, a new kayak rack and picnic table. They provide full RV hookups. The owners are very accommodating and prompt to respond to any questions. We had an excellent time again here. It was August and hot. Storms brought welcoming clouds and gulf breezes. Couldn’t find any scallops at Hagens cove but the fishing more than made up for it with several reds caught using the kayaks just out from camp and a 23” caught from the deck. Would definitely recommend and we’ll be back. Jim and Jeri-Sue

This is a nice spacious site right on the water with a beautiful view of the Gulf of MEXICO. The original infrastructure of the site was destroyed during Helene. They have done a great job getting it back up to speed with level gravel surface, all the necessary hookups, a picnic table, a shower, and kayaks. I biked down to Keaton Beach and there is a bike trail at the boat launch area that goes out to Ceder (?) Island. Also spend some time in the local bar (Bird Rack) talking to some of the locals and enjoying a cold brew. If you want to be away from the crowds, this is a great spot.

I needed a nights rest at Mr. Leonard. pulled in late. Mr Leonard showed me the site . He showed the shower and bathroom / toilet. I set up right when the sun went down being in a hurry. Leonard secured the gate to his property, big thumbs up!! The gate was reopened in the morning. I took a few pictures because his setup has many details and fulfilled dreams and scapes and tents and all kinds of detail relating to a comfort minded inspirational and useful accouterments by design and setup. You would have to see this place. In one word, nice.
