Peaceful RV Camping

Home away from home.

This is a great spot for families who want to camp without all the gear and schlepping. You get the space and calm of a camp fire and a starry night sky without all the trouble. My kids loved the bunk beds and I slept like a dream in the big bed. We had a wonderful time!

We were greeted by Cassandra, the property manager who was very friendly and gave us a little background on the property and surrounding areas. The RV is set up with everything you need including a super comfy king size bed. One of the highlights of this site is a beautiful view of a forested area, we enjoyed a stroll admiring the Spanish moss and airplants. The grounds itself is divided by a privacy fence from the main house which you’ll see as soon as you pull in. Our favorite was hanging around the large fire pit and roasting s’mores that were kindly provided by the host. We highly recommend using the outdoor shower which is spacious and charming.

Had an amazing experience. Very Peaceful and private place. Well maintained. The outdoor shower is a bonus. Over all beautiful and calm place, definitely coming back in a few weeks.

Been there twice with two different groups of friends... It's an awesome place.

Short version: Loved it! Roomier than expected. Lots of details that made staying easy and comfortable. Dog will be dreaming of it for years. Close to springs. Hike, campfire, shower, sleep, repeat.
Long version: Really was roomier than I had expected. My husband, myself and our 13 yr old son and dog stayed a full week. Had my sister and her two pre-teens visit the first night but Devon let us set up a tent to help accommodate everyone with a little more space if needed - but all but one ended up in the RV. 13 yr old boys loved the bunk beds and the king sized bed was super comfortable and very spacious. We cooked most meals there, either inside or on the campfire - we didn't use the grill but Devon had charcoal ready if we had decided to. I had pre-made a few dishes that we finished cooking or heated up nicely by microwave, oven, or range. Frig and freezer and AC also all worked great. The house on same property right next door was not rented out while we were there, so we felt happily alone - but the fence and separate campfire areas would have made things fine if there had been another guest nearby. Outdoor shower was fantastic - used by all and most of the time, but the indoor shower works great too. Local grocery store, Dollar General, and gas station all just down the road in-case you don't find what you need or forgot anything. The dog and I took multiple daily walks on the property and enjoyed the FL outdoors. Little touches were extra nice and helpful even if you planned ahead: clothes line, bug spray, shower stuff, firewood, S'mores, charcoal, dog water bowl, (found a hose and kiddie pool to wash the dog at the back shed near the main house), salt/pepper, coffee filters, coffee, plenty of cookware and plates/cutlery, and other little helpful items throughout the RV and grounds. We visited most of the Springs, I took my Kayak on a couple of trips, and my son and husband still managed to work and do school remotely by WiFi (a little fickle at times but we may have been maxing it out some.) Thanks for a quiet time away.

Sweet, comfortable place for a family stay. We loved the outdoor shower and smores at night around the campfire. It's a great home base for exploring the springs and Ocala National Forest during the day. Loved that the firewood was already there for us and dry.

This was the perfect weekend getaway in north/central Florida! The RV was very well-equipped and the surrounding property was lovely, and our dog loved it as well. The fire pit area and provided firewood was a lovely touch and the perfect way to enjoy a cold night. Great location for a couple or a small group of friends. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful time staying at Devon’s RV. It was far enough from everything to feel secluded, but a close enough drive for groceries, state parks, and even a pizza night. We appreciated the firewood and charcoal that was provided, and the amenities inside to help out with cooking, extra pillows, towels, etc. There was a musty odor that appeared to come from under the bathroom sink, maybe a leak, but other than that, the RV was clean, sheets smelled nice and we enjoyed a peaceful getaway from our daily lives. Bonus that we could bring our dog as well! Would recommend!
