Sarah's site was well off the beaten path; old Florida country at it's best! The camps have an unobstructed view of the river, with easy access to the dock. Lots of old growth trees for canopy. Sarah was very communicative, willing to work with us as we chose parking for the RVs and overall happy to help.
Electric & water hookups are a bit farther away than we were used to, but she told us ahead of time and we were able to bring the connectors needed.
Definitely recommend to those seeking a true "get away" without an abundance of unnecessary amenities & people.

The hosts were very accommodating and gracious. Tom gave us an incredible tour and history of the property. His animals are amazing. The site was very private and clean. The sink hole is fascinating, though we weren't comfortable swimming in it. Plan to bring a shovel and toilet plan as the one at the site needs repair. There is plenty of downed wood around you but bring a saw as much of it is too large to break. Be sure to visit Fanning Springs State Park in addition to the better known sites closer by. The swimming area is fabulous and manatees were present.

Tom and Judy were very hospitable and flexible, even when it came to making modifications in our party size. There were 9 of us and we had a great time at arrowhead sink. The sink itself was awesome, we spent a good portion of our time down there (bring some hiking shoes because it’s a steep decline to get into the sink and it’s a little wet and muddy). The location isn’t too far from a gas station and there is even an area with food trucks. Lots of fun!

Amazing farm run by genuine real people. I look forward to seeing the potential for sustainable Earth events that unify the community in resilience and a return to the old ways. Such a pleasure for a tour and the history.

I’ve stayed at quite a few HipCamps over the years, but this one is hands-down the best experience I’ve ever had.
The property truly has a little bit of everything- from friendly farm animals like donkeys, cows, and goats, to an incredible cave with its own private swimming hole. The best part? You’ll have these huge, scenic spaces entirely to yourself. It’s the perfect blend of adventure and tranquility, making it an ideal spot for a weekend getaway.
And to top it off, the host, Tom, is one of the coolest and most genuine people you’ll ever meet. He was a pleasure to chat with and shared some fascinating stories about the land’s history that made the stay even more special.
If you’re considering booking this HipCamp, stop thinking and just do it- you won’t regret it.

We had a wonderfully relaxing time at Dunagan’s Meadow! The camping area was completely private and deep into the property, where traffic and neighborhood noises could not be heard. The camp site is clean and really beautiful - vast and lush with a meadow reminiscent of “The Sound Of Music.” The animals were friendly and we had the entire area all to ourselves! But what really made the experience special was Tom and Judy…they are amazing hosts - really attentive without being overbearing, and genuinely kind. This was our first experience tent camping together and they guided us through the set-up process, made us feel safe and comfortable, and even shared some of their future plans for a vacation home on the property…it will truly be a unique stay to experience once it’s completed! We highly recommend this site if you really want to get away from it all, be in a peaceful setting, and leave feeling rested, regenerated, and looking forward to your next visit. Thank you Tom and Judy for your warm welcome, hospitality, and care!

Our experience here was wonderful and relaxing. I hung a hammock in the shade and lounged to read. It was the perfect way to relax.
The journey to the cave and sink was well worth the steep decent.
The owner of the property led us to the site and led us to the path to the cave. Along the way she shared family history of the farm. We plan to return to this site!

This place is an absolute must stay in Ichetucknee. A private swim hole on the campground, gorgeous green and accommodating meadow to camp next to, tree cover over the tents. And not to mention the most gracious hosts, Judy and Tom. They were even kind enough to pop by and put covers over our tents when it rained unexpectedly while we were out. They clearly care for the land just as well as their guests. There were 9 of us here and we had a total blast. Thank you, Tom and Judy!

This campsite and experience was perfect! We booked super last minute on a holiday weekend and Judy was immediately responsive. We showed up after dark and Tom was kind enough to bring us to the camp site and point out animals along the way. The campsite itself was perfect. It was quiet and secluded which was exactly what we wanted. Tom even walked us down the trail to point out where the sinkhole was and told us the best times to go down so we could check it out the next day. We had a great stay and would love to come back!

The location is perfect for scalloping. Kristen was great with prompt communication when I needed her. Lots of mosquitoes so make sure to bring spray. We had a great stay here.

Excellent, convenient spot right on the river. Clean gravel to park on, pick nick table, shade from small live oaks, just perfect. Just tie your boat on the beautiful, floating dock and hit the scalloping and fishing grounds just a few minutes down river in the morning. The public boat ramp is only a few minutes down the road as well. Be sure to have a game plan when you come here, it’s a small town meant for fishing and scalloping, not a bustling city with stores crowds of people and useless garbage to waste your money on. Old Florida, just right 🙌🏻

The best private sites RV camping near Steinhatchee guide
Where to go
Big Bend Wildlife Management Area
The Big Bend Wildlife Management Area pairs the blue waters of the Gulf Coast with the green land of the area’s campgrounds. The wildlife preserve comes with hiking trails, as well as recreation areas, picnic tables, and boat ramps. The area’s most unique charm, however, is its wildlife. While camping, you’re likely to spot birds, fish, and up to 100 species of butterflies. Clearly, both campers and animals thrive in this diverse habitat.
Steinhatchee Springs Wildlife Management Area
En route to another wildlife preserve, you’ll pass RV, tent, and cabin campsites that come with a range of views. Steinhatchee Springs Wildlife Management Area combines Florida’s signature vistas. Think: cypress swamps, verdant forests, and rows of pine trees. Once you check-in to a nearby campsite, you can ride horses, bike, hike, fish, and hunt. If you’d prefer a more peaceful getaway, you can alternatively sit back and take in the landscape’s beauty.
Down Florida’s Nature Coast
Florida’s Nature Coast passes through Steinhatchee, as well as the surrounding coastal towns. Boaters and fishermen will flock to the tranquil shores of Horseshoe Beach, though camping spots in the area vary. Some campgrounds come with RV hookups and picnic tables, while other campsites offer recreation areas and fire pits. No matter where you go, you’ll never be far from the Gulf of Mexico and its coastal views.
When to go
For the most comfortable camping experience, visit campgrounds in Steinhatchee, Florida when the days are warm, but not scorching. Avoid the muggy and humid summer months in favor of the more temperate seasons. You’ll want to plan your trip for fall through spring, when the nights are pleasant enough to sleep under the stars—and cool enough to curl up in your sleeping bag.
