An elevated camp site next to a pole barn that overlooks a Florida hammock and a peek at the Rainbow River. - This is not a commercial campground. - Sorry, no dogs due to wildlife. - No RVs (Tents, Truck Tents and Vans Only) - Located in the heart of Dunnellon near the Rainbow River Site: 25ft long by 14ft Wide. Water, Sewer, 30amp; Electric. Not on the water but walking distance. This property is shared with the owner. campsite is separated from owner's house with a pole barn. This is not a waterfront site. You are not camping on the water, however, Rainbow River Peek is named because you can get a peek of the river from the site. You can bike to the river in about two minutes. This is a small, narrow (14ft wide) but quiet area, a few hundred feet from The Rainbow River. Located on a dead-end street. It is partially surrounded by Florida foliage next to a pole barn. 30 amp plug, Sewer, Water and 110 electric outlet and outdoor sink is on the site. The Rainbow River is a gorgeous river that is walking distance from the site. There is a beach, free boat launch, free kayak launch, tiki bars with live entertainment, antique shops, restaurants and a Publix/Aldi/Discount Grocery all within biking and walking distance. EXTRAS: Just like most campgrounds, check-in is after 3 and checkout, before 1 for cleanup between reservations. However, those times are negotiable if no arrival or departures those days. I am not a campground with multiple sites. When you cancel last minute you're hurting my biz as well as those that could've booked. No last minute cancellations! LOCAL STUFF TO LOOK UP Suggested Restaurants: (Hipcamp doesn't allow websites on here) Gruff's Grill and Bar, River Run, Swampy's (water front), Blue Gator (waterfront), Go For Donuts, Baskin Robbins, Dunkin' Donuts, Sonic, Burger King, Mc Donald's, Taco Bell and more. Shops: Antique shops nearby and Grumble House is a must visit! Grocery: Publix, Save A Lot, Winn Dixie, Aldi Laundromat: A few blocks from campsite Tours: Singing River Tours. $20 per person for a 1.5 hour ride on the river in a large, covered pontoon barge. Walking distance to board boat. Captain Bob's Airboat Tours, $50 per person. Walking distance to board boat. Boat Rentals - Rent a jon boat with a motor up to a pontoon boat at Blue Gator Tiki Bar & Grill. Walking distance from the RV site. Biking: This little town offers many sidewalks to bicycle on as well as a beautiful park along the Rainbow River called Blue Run Park Beach: Dunnellon City Beach (Chaplain A. Dinkins, III Memorial Park) is less than half a mile from the RV site. It offers picnic tables, restroom, a pier and beach for swimming on the Rainbow River. Pets are not allowed.• This is NOT a commercial campground.

P's spot was as described. Be sure to check out Dunellon while there, or you're missing out. The Rainbow River and Swampys are great local spots. We had a great day trip to Three Sisters Springs and Weeki Wachi.

We enjoyed our short time visiting Ps property. It was perfect for our needs while visiting rainbow springs state park. Owner was great with communication before and during our stay. He has provided lots of “amenities” to make it a comfortable stay. If you need a quick place to pitch your tent or park a small camper this place is perfect. We enjoyed a lovely day on the beautiful rainbow river. If considering booking this site… I suggest you do!! Thank you again for a great stay.

We fit right into this comfy spot
Paula is sweet and supportive. My friend and I felt safe and comfortable. There are many springs close by and we can't wait to camp there again so we can explore more springs in Dunnellon!
