One of the BEST sites I’ve found through Hipcamp!!!! There was no shortage of things to do on the property itself, but as other reviews have mentioned, there are plenty of nature activities all within short driving distance. Host was great, facilities had everything I needed and in working order. I will definitely be back.

Stayed 2 nights. Camping with tents. At the time of this review, there was a drought, so the river was extremely low. Property was very well kept, clean, and a great central location if you don’t want to be too far away from everything. Hopefully next time the rain has raised the river so we could do the full runs, up and down stream. The water was nice and cool, great for the warmer days we had in November. We will definitely be returning. Great site.

This is a great place for children and rv camping. Lots of toys, cars, and trucks for the kids to play with. The St. Mary's river borders the property and is accessible for wading, swimming, and fishing. The property itself is very nice with some secluded spots if you want to do some primitive tent camping. There are port-o-let style toilets with a sink and access to potable water.

Great location for a weekend camp. We were in a 23' TT and used the 30 amp service and water with no problems. CG is clean and stocked with toys to keep the grandkids busy. St Mary's was VERY low water. No paddling this weekend. Will definitely be back. Great job M !
Happy Campers

This spot is a jewel! Right off the road but tucked away. Lovely river access with sweet white sugar sand beaches. Great for kids with fun stuff to keep them occupied. A really cool cypress glade with knees galore if you are willing to explore. Our night was shared with a large group of folks gathering for fun, and we still felt we had privacy. We would go back in a heartbeat and recommend that you check it out!

Exceptional property! Steps to St Marys River, secluded, 1-50A hook and water, nice outhouse with lighting, sink, trails galore. Beautiful huge gazebo with games for our next family gathering. Perfect for group tents. Chairs and fire pits around property and picnic tables. We have a 30' Alliance 5th wheel and in and out was easy. Matt is very easy to work with and we were glad he was there working. No wild animals to mess with your stuff except the resident cat and a rabbit or two. Did I mention..kayaks right by river for very small add, frisbee golf and the river, which you can walk across to the Florida side. You won't get much cell coverage but we did pickup local news and movie channels. Talk about getting away from it all! Hidden Gem! This one will be sought after once word gets out! Just perfect!

This is truly a great place to bring the family. The Host has taken the time to make this family-friendly. Our kids made great memories! Being that close to the river was awesome.

We have found our new camping spot! This camping spot has the perfect balance of amenities while still being able to stay rustic / primitive if you so desire. They have 30A and 50A connections, water hookups, a HUGE covered pavilion with tables, electricity, chairs, hammocks, charcoal grills, bikes, and toys for the little ones. The site also has picnic tables throughout the property. And when you need to cool off there are several sandbars along the river where you can cool off! Our two boys are loud and wild so we absolutely loved this spot. We will be coming back here regularly!

This site was absolutely gorgeous! This was not only my first time using Hipcamp, but also my first time taking out my new RV! I felt way more comfortable and confident taking it to a place where I was able to set up while taking our time! Not only was the site perfect to set up, and so easy to be able to pull the RV through (no backing up necessary), but my pups LOVED swimming in the river! It was just the perfect site and location and I’d love to visit again!

This has to be the best campsite we have ever been to the owner is super nice. I can’t believe how lucky we got discovering this hidden gem. The campsite had everything you need, including water, electricity, and beautiful views. The water was so refreshing on such a hot day, and it was only a short walk from our tent. We have an annual tradition of camping for our anniversary and this has become our new spot!!!

IT WAS AMAZING! Definitely coming back!! I loved tent camping there. It was private, quiet, and so much to do. We fished, went swimming, kayaking, and made dinner & smores over the fire. We brought our 2 grandkids ages 3 & 7. They had a blast and didn't wanna leave, we didn't want to either. They played in the playground area & rode the kids atv all around. We loved the beach area too! The sand is so soft and white! There was picnic tables very close by, so we had a place to sit and eat. Loved the bridge and hammock!
I would definitely recommend this site to everyone I know.
