Welcome to Sandy Bottom River Retreat – Your Private Escape into Nature’s Serenity
Discover the perfect blend of peace, adventure, and natural beauty at Sandy Bottom River Retreat. Tucked away in the heart of Wimauma’s untouched wilderness, this secluded hideaway offers private river access and a truly off-the-grid camping experience surrounded by towering pines, lush palmettos, and the soothing sounds of the great outdoors.
Enjoy a refreshing dip, launch your kayak or tube, or simply unwind along the golden sandy riverbank where the water sparkles knee-deep and crystal clear. Wildlife enthusiasts will love spotting deer, rabbits, otters, and a colorful array of native birds that make this retreat their home.
While you’ll feel miles away from everything, modern conveniences are just minutes away—restaurants, shops, and deliveries from Walmart, Instacart, or Amazon can reach you in no time. Two of our campsites sit directly on the river, while the others are a short, scenic walk away.
Please note that this is a rustic, amenity-free experience designed for true nature lovers. The area is rural and neighbors may occasionally ride ATVs or enjoy target practice on their own land. For safety and peace of mind, outdoor cameras are placed around the property to help ensure the protection of our guests and the land.
We maintain a zero-tolerance policy for hunting, shooting, or archery on site to preserve the peaceful environment for all.
Looking for a private event booking or clothing-optional friendly stay? Contact us in advance to reserve one of our coveted riverfront sites or inquire about exclusive property rentals.
Come reconnect with nature, recharge your spirit, and experience camping the way it was meant to be—wild, beautiful, and unforgettable.

This farm was perfect for our stop over on the way to Fort Myers. It was fun watching the BMX racers. There was lots of room to park in their field and walk with our dog. Very quiet starry night! Thank, Will for hosting.

Beautiful ! Private ! Tropical ! Oasis ! We brought our camper van to explore Sanibel and found the best possible campsite on the island ! The gorgeous landscaped site was waiting with electric and water, beautiful breakfast nook, and plenty of space . Our host was very welcoming and made us feel right at home. This is a very special place and should be treated as such. It just doesn’t get any better.! Already looking forward to our next stay there .

We loved our brief stay and wish we could’ve stayed longer! Our site was serene and peaceful - the temperament of the horses was the same. Taylor was very accommodating and the facilities were well taken care of. Beautiful, quiet property that I’m sure all will find comfortable.

This was our first hipcamp experience. We aren't going to use any other app again! We were greeted by Taylor's mom as we arrived after dark. She helped light our way. The site was very easy to access. It was quiet and peaceful. Plus only a quick ride to the beach. Would 100 percent recommend and we will be staying there again! Lovely hosts, lovely ranch!

The lot was most agreeable. The bathroom and showers were always clean and we were provided fire wood every night at a reasonable cost. I almost didn’t want to leave. My family and I absolutely loved the people there as well as the horses Oakley and Willow, as well as the peacock Wilson.

Tres Lagos was the perfect location for my friend from WPB and me to meet for one night in order to spread my mother's ashes in the Gulf. The Scamp was comfortable and the property was peaceful. The campers on here complaining about the smell and the condition of the trailer need to remember that it is vintage (old) and Florida is humid, so there are going to be odors and the weather will have taken its toll.

The tent camping was peaceful, and the site was comfortable. There was plenty of shade, and, to our surprise & delight, our site had strings of solar lights that helped us see but did not take much away from the natural ambience. The lights were far enough apart that we still enjoyed our view of the night sky.
April, the host, was hellpful, as was her husband Jerry. Chris & Kendall Campion, the owners, swung by one day to check everything out. They were very hospitable and made us feel welcome.
The shower was hot, and the facilities were basic but did the job as described.
The farm animals were an added treat that enhanced both the sights and sounds of the experience.
We didn't take advantage of the play areas this time, but we plan to return this Spring with our kids & Grandkids for a relaxing time away for our whole family.

We had the most enjoyable peaceful time at camp champ! It was simple yet restorative in so many ways. The animals were a pleasure to be around and our girls were with animals or riding their bikes from sunrise to sundown. April was so kind and let the girls help feed the animals! The owners are so kind. The property is a gem and we can’t wait to come back

Loved our tent-stay here! The setup is neat because the horses have a fenced path around the perimeter so they walked right by our sight every evening. Our 8 and 10 year old girls loved that. The location is amazing because you get that camping vibe but super close to the beach and all the things Englewood/Manasota Key have to offer. We had the best camper neighbor one site over who made our stay SUPERB!! We felt like we belonged here! There is a bathroom with a shower which suited all of our needs but it is shared by all campers so we did try to be courteous and not take up too much time in it.
