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 with incredible star viewing opportunities on clear nights, so pack the telescope! Enjoy the beauty and tranquility of Florida’s northern woods without having to share it! This campsite 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 and quiet with no other neighboring campsites. All footpaths and clearings are maintained by hand to minimize disrupting Florida’s natural woodland habitat, allowing you the opportunity to be completely encapsulated by the forest and surrounded by beautiful native plants. This is a primitive campsite in the woods! There is no running water, bathrooms, or electricity. You’ll need to bring everything you need and take everything you brought. A winding footpath leads you from the road to the campsite. There is a fire pit with table and chairs and a dog hammock. There are two clearings for pitching tents: a large 12x20 space adjacent to the fire pit, and a smaller 10x12 space that is tucked a little further into the property and connected by footpaths for extra privacy. Pets are welcome but there is no fence so they will need to be on a leash. The area is entirely dirt roads, but there are street signs for navigation. Limited parking is available in front of the property. This is a great hub for outdoor recreation! Spend your day fishing, paddling, or swimming in the nearby springs and rivers, or hike one of the many nearby trails, then retire under a blanket of stars at night. The campsite is conveniently located within a 9 min drive of Twin Rivers State Forest, 16 min drive of Madison Blue Springs State Park, and a 17 min drive to Suwannee River State Park. It is 2 min drive (or 9 min walk) to the trailhead of Suwannee River State Park's Big Oak Trail (16-mile loop that connects to the Florida National Scenic Trail) and a boat launch to the Suwannee River. Parking is available at the boat launch and trailhead. NOTE: You may hear distant gunshots from nearby hunting preserves.Reconnect with nature and escape the light pollution at this completely private primitive campsite near Suwannee River State Park.

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
