Second time was even better!
This was my second trip to Gateway Trails, first was a solo trip and this time, friends came to enjoy! This site was new to me but was equally wonderful. The campsite was so spacious and yet private and protected, we felt perfectly safe walking around at any time of the day or evening. The site-mentioned outhouse was pristine upon arrival, our purchased firewood was stacked so carefully by the perimeter of our site so it wouldn’t impede tent setup, and the fire pit and table were clean and ready to go! We had less bug friends than I’ve ever seen at a campsite, plenty of space right next to the potable water to set up a portable shower, and the stars at night were clear and bright, deep in the heart of Florida (ten points to you if you know that adjusted lyric). Mr. Jay came to greet us and brought over his adorable pup to say hello as well. It’s been two years since I’ve been to their campsite, and he still remembered me (even after all their fully booked months!) and greeted us all with such kindness. We were bummed we didn’t get to see Mrs. Suzette but respectfully might request a celebrity appearance next time we come down! Thank you Gateway Trails for a fun, safe, and gorgeous camping trip, we cannot wait to come back.
