🚗 Two miles (5min drive) from downtown Sarasota
🌴 Old-Florida charm: lots of lush tropical greenery
🚣🏼♂️ On Whitaker’s Bayou.
🌟 It’s the best of both worlds: peaceful nature on the creek, and easy access to all the best restaurants, beaches, and charming Main St atmosphere.
💩 MUST have a bathroom on-board. No sewer hookup
💦 No water hookup, but you may fill your water tank with the hose
⚡️ 15amp & 30 amp plug ins. BYO adapter. Extension cord needed to reach the plug.
🏕️ No long term campers. No tent camping.
🚴🏼 Biking to Main St takes 8-10minutes if you have bicycles!
🏖️ Ten minute drive from St-Armands Circle and Lido Beach; 20-25 minute drive from Siesta Key Beach.
The Bayou goes all the way out to the Gulf - we see large schools of mullet here, occasionally turtles, hawks, and herons. If you are lucky, you might see a manatee or an otter!
We have a 36” campfire pit you are welcome to use. We are still working on getting seating for the campfire pit, but if you have camping chairs, it’s perfect!
We have an amazing location to share AND we also have neighbors to the left, and across the creek. We value and respect them. We wish to share our space with quiet and mindful campers.
The property is 0.5 acre. You will be parking in part of the yard, under the shade of one of the oaks, slightly tucked back away from the house. We can be available to help/welcome you, and offer local guidance if you like.
**A sweet but fearful rescue dog lives here and we are not allowing any other animals to camp or stay on the property.** NO DOGS WHATSOEVER. You will be made to leave if you violate this condition.
***Our acceptance rate is lower because people with dogs, 5 people in their party, or no onboard facility of their own submit booking requests, which we must decline.

Welcome to the "Wild and Scenic Myakka River"!
Our 20 acre ranch has everything from Longhorn cattle, to a white sand beach. We like to say our sand is like Siesta Key, except it's...in a swamp. Our property is not too far upstream from the Myakka State park, and parking is never a problem. ;-)
We have a beautiful homestead, and you have the choice of a furnished camper with water and power hookups in our pasture, or 2 primative tent or RV spots on the edge of a beautiful stand of Live Oak trees and Sabal palms along the river.
We have a porta potty on site that is regularly maintained.
Bring your family, bring your dog, bring your friends.....and don't forget to bring a fishing pole!

As a family who has towed campers across the US a couple times utilizing Hip Camp we know others will appreciate the ease of pulling into our little 1 acre urban oasis just a couple miles off the interstate in Floridas Coolest City.
It’s an ideal location to explore St Pete as we are right between the beaches and downtown (5 miles to St Pete beach, 4 miles to downtown -$10 Uber ride), Sarasota and/or Tampa. Ours is an urban spot based on ease, safety and location, not a wilderness "experience"
We have a paved circular driveway overlooking our beehives, henhouse and seasonal garden where you’ll find a table with chairs and plenty of space to cookout and enjoy a quiet evening with a great sunset by the blowing bamboo.
This is one of South St Pete’s oldest neighborhoods- it surrounds an active former PGA golf course and lively country club. It’s a great place for safely biking or walking with green spaces, tennis courts, playgrounds and dog parks nearby.
There are many owls, raptors, green parrots, purple martins and osprey overhead as we’re just a few blocks from the beautiful Boyd Hill Nature Preserve. - not to be missed!
The Pinellas Trail is just a short bike ride away too and can lead you to downtown. It is a cyclists favorite!
We love our city - happy to give recommendations.

Felt like our own little private oasis with lush tropical greenery and was within walking distance to the cutest funky retro 70's hangout spot, The Mable.

He was extra helpful to get us setup in a backup area due to Amazon being in town building. His normal spots were full so we were right next to his house. Felt very safe. Cold Weather has beaten some of his plants up but can see where he is working to build it all back. Busy road beside the property but with a fan going you dont notice it and I'm a light sleeper.

Anthony is a good dude with excellent customer service. I was just passing through, and he let me use an overflow spot. We ended up talking for a while, and when my 30-amp cable was too short, I let him know and he helped resolve it right away.
The outdoor shower is a nice touch, and I even met some of his relatives—was offered hot coffee, which I gladly accepted. It’s a bit of a drive to some restaurants, but there are a few convenience stores and a Publix nearby.
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly spot to relax, this is it.

We had such an incredible stay here it’s truly a hidden gem. The property is peaceful, quiet, and beautifully maintained, making it the perfect place to unplug and actually enjoy nature without distractions.
The host, April, was wonderful, welcoming, responsive, and clearly takes pride in what she does. Everything felt thoughtfully cared for.
This is very much a self service kind of place, which we loved. You are not going to have anyone breathing down your neck or constantly hovering or doing things for you. It gives you the space to settle in, slow down, and experience everything on your own terms.
If you’ve ever been to Peace River Campground, this is the complete opposite in the best way: the same natural beauty, but without the crowds or chaos. Just calm water, open space, and the sounds of nature.
They also offer canoes, kayaks, and a paddleboard for rent, which made it even better to explore and take everything in at your own pace.
If you’re looking for a quiet escape to reset and enjoy the outdoors as it should be, this is the place. We’ll absolutely be back.
