Nomadic camping
Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Reconnect with nature and escape the light pollution at this completely private primitive campsite near Suwannee River State Park. Northern Florida offers some of the darkest skies in the state providing amazing star-viewing opportunities on clear nights, so pack the telescope! This is a nature lover's paradise. All paths and clearings are maintained by hand to minimize disrupting Florida's natural woodland habitat, so you will be completely surrounded by beautiful native plants such as pines, saw palmettos, oaks, hickories, sweet gums, maples, and hollies. A winding footpath leads you from the road to the campsite, which sits on a 0.25 acre wooded lot surrounded by vacant wooded lots of similar size in every direction, so there is lots of privacy with no other adjacent campsites. This is a primitive campsite in the wilds of Northern Florida! There is no running water, bathrooms or electricity. You'll need to bring everything you need, and take everything you brought. There is a fire pit with table & chairs, dog hammock, and a picnic table. There are two spaces for pitching tents, a 12x15 ft clearing adjacent to the picnic table & fire pit, and a 8x10 ft clearing tucked a little further in the woods and connected by footpaths to the picnic area. DRIVE HERE: The campsite is located 20 minutes north of I-10. Once you get off Co. Rd. 141 the area is entirely dirt roads, but there are street signs for navigation. Parking is available in front of the property with space for 1 vehicle. HIKE HERE: We are a 7 min walk from the trailhead of Suwannee River State Park's Big Oak Trail which connects to the Florida National Scenic Trail. RIVER ACCESS: We are a 3 min drive to a public boat launch for the Suwanee River, so bring your kayaks. Several miles downstream is the confluence with the Northern Withlacoochee River. Public parking is available at the boat launch and trailhead to Big Oak Trail. NOTE: You may hear distant gunshots from hunting preserves in the area. **NO HUNTING IS PERMITTED ON THIS OR ANY OTHER LOT WITHIN THE SUWANEE RIVER CAMPSITES SUBDIVISION, OR WITHIN SUWANEE RIVER STATE PARK**Reconnect with nature and escape the light pollution at this completely private primitive campsite near Suwannee River State Park.

Unfound Florida Dark Sky Campsite
Clear instructions and easy to find. Nice pullout for the car and a short trail takes you to a beautiful fire pit with chairs and a table and plenty of space for a large tent. Very quiet and relaxing stay. Would stay again
