Weekend Trip to Surfer Beach And Tree Sanctuary

Had an amazing and relaxing weekend. The campsite itself was very private, and the proximity to the “private-ish” beach was the best part. It felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. It was the perfect private getaway. The only downside was that the mini fridge at our site wasn’t working, so we had to rely on our cooler. Aside from that small issue, it was a 10/10 experience. We’ll definitely be back for the peace and quiet.

This was my first time using this app, so I didn’t know what to expect… and let me say that it far exceeded my expectations! Vito the owner couldn’t be more friendly and accommodating! I had an issue that was a million percent my fault… I cut the corner too tight coming in and got stuck in the ditch. If this happens to you, just call Priority Towing and they’ll come get you out the way you went in!!! Vito was so helpful throughout that whole thing! The property is beautiful and peaceful. If you have dogs, there is a very well-kept backyard, but you can also walk them on the sidewalk of the main road. Would most definitely recommend this very cool and hip camp!

Weekend Trip to RV Campsite with Pool & Hot Tub

This site is a hidden gem. It was perfect for a weekend getaway. It was easy to find and hook up at the site. The view out your front door is beautiful pines. The site has a picnic table with an umbrella for shade as well as a firepit. At night there are lights and a bug zapper to make it comfortable outside. The best part is the fabulous pool just behind your site. The pool has great seating options, shade and a hot tub. Our dogs also loved the site. Our hosts were responsive and supportive. We will definitely visit this site again!

Weekend Trip to Surfer Beach And Tree Sanctuary

What a great place! First of all, you are just across the street from the beach and from a turtle sanctuary!! It’s one of the last spots on the Atlantic coast of Florida which is not overdeveloped. I hesitate to broadcast it too much as it is so special! John runs a small surf shop and a surf camp. So there’s a low key, cool business attached to the property (filled with great books to be loaned). The yurt is quite comfortable and has all the amenities you need. It’s very quiet and surrounded by jungle like foliage. I highly recommend this place. We will absolutely be back. My only suggestion is in summer note that they have mosquitoes. It’s manageable, but prepare in advance.

Weekend Trip to Nettles Island Coastal Resort

This is a great place to stay. Lots of activities included. You can plan a stay here and have so much to do! Two pools on location, beach access, a restaurant and more! The only negative review is the check in process. It is not explained that you need your vehicle registration, proof of insurance, and, if you bring pets, you need their vaccination log. You must go to the front office w all info in hand. Overall, we will happily stay here again! Beautiful resort. I sent a message to the owner and got no response, but the front office was accommodating at check in.

I stayed here with my children for Mother's Day Weekend. We were delighted to find out that it's on an island! Very close to the beach and state parks. They are in the middle of building a new platform to put the dome on. I was a little sad we had the view of a half-finished construction project, but for future visitors that will be an amazing upgrade. DON'T SKIP THE BUG SPRAY!!

I loved staying at Toni’s, the location is great specially if you want to head to Lion country safari, it is only a 10 minute drive. The spot where you park your RV is even and surrounded by trees. There is also a great spot to do a camp fire and they even provided some fire food even though we forgot ours but you can buy everything you need at a Publix also 10 minutes or less away. I would 100% stay here again they were awesome!
