22mi from Pine Creek Landing Primitive Campground · 8 sites · Tents, RVs, LodgingBack in 2014, this was 40 acres of forgotten, overgrown Panhandle woods. Less than a year later, in 2015, we added the neighboring 40 acres — together, the 80 acres of thriving longleaf pine, orchard, and untouched wetlands you get to camp inside of today.

During the rainy season, the grass can get a bit long between mowings, and you'll likely see (and hear) tractors and other agricultural activity — always outside quiet hours. If you love land that's alive and working, you'll feel right at home here.
I'm usually around and happy to show you the property and share the story of how it came to be — and if I'm away, my cohost will gladly do the honors. Either way, come stay a while, breathe some pine-scented air, and see what over a decade of dirt-under-the-fingernails
