Beautiful waterfront sites. Pitch your tent or pull up your camper to these riverfront campsites on the bank of the beautiful Suwannee River in North Florida. Fishing, swimming, nature walks and total serenity await you.. Bring your fishing poles. There are also many freshwater springs in the area Stores and gas stations are within 10 minutes of the retreat and Turner Point boat ramp is just a few minutes away. The Retreat is temporarily closed due to flooding on the Suwannee River. We are just 10 minutes north of Old Town off of State 349. You need to let me know your power requirements when booking.

  • Review summary

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    This riverside retreat offers a peaceful escape into nature with stunning views of the Suwannee River. Campers appreciate the solitude, abundant wildlife, and the helpfulness of host Debra, who goes above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay. While the site provides basic amenities, it's best suited for those who enjoy a more rustic camping experience, with limited cell service and the need to bring potable water. Visitors consistently enjoy the tranquility and the opportunity to immerse themselves in the surrounding natural beauty.
