Private campsite in the middle of the city! My family and I were lucky enough to find a four acre urban forest less than two miles from FSU, the Florida Capitol and downtown Tallahassee. And just a mile from midtown! We are welcoming tent campers to come experience camping in an urban forest. The camping area has a hot water shower and sink, and the main site (#76), is fully outfitted with fire ring, tent pad, fresh water, a picnic table and plenty of hammock trees! The camp area has space for up to 6 tent campers and 2 cars. All sites share the shower and sink areas and a port-o-potty that is professionally cleaned weekly. Sprinter style vans (UPDATE) - We successfully had a Sprinter Van on the site and have now started accepting booking for that style van. Due to limitations on space and clearance, we can only allow vans with a max of around 10 1/2' tall and 23' long. This is equivalent to a Sprinter 170. We can not fit RVs or extended wide bodies conversions. Pets: Pets on leashes are allowed on the property. Guests with aggressive animals will be asked to leave.

Private campsite in the middle of the city! My family and I were lucky enough to find a four acre urban forest less than two miles from downtown Tallahassee, just outside of midtown. We are welcoming tent campers to come experience camping in an urban forest. Features: This is our main site (#76) and is outfitted with fire ring, tent pad, fresh water, a picnic table and plenty of hammock trees! The site has a hot water shower and sink and there is a port-o-potty on site that is professionally cleaned and serviced weekly. Firewood is available for purchase as an add-on item. Privacy/Parking: This site is very wooded and most visitors have called it "very private". There is a yurt on the adjacent site that is visible through brush from the site. The shower and bathroom area is shared by all guests. The site has space for up to 6 people and two cars. Additional campers and parking is available, message me for info. Sprinter style vans - We successfully had a Sprinter Van on the site and have now started accepting booking for that style van. Due to limitations on space and clearance, we can only allow vans with a max of around 10 1/2' tall and 23' long. This is equivalent to a Sprinter 170.

The hilltop spot is a simple clearing in the middle of the property, includes a fire ring, trash can and access to the shared hot water shower and sink area. Has two flat spots for tents or parking. I think most folks that have small vans or truck top campers choose this spot if they are self contained and have a bunch of stuff they want to spread out.

    Really unique spot at the capital city! The spot felt secluded despite being walking distance from a busy area. Beautiful site with a fire ring made for a great stay! Danny was very friendly and helpful. Only down side was the noisy neighbors at night, but it is not that bad. Would recommend this spot if youre staying in Tallahassee!
