Amazing views
Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.
A small but unique piece of land that was given to a family in the 1920s by the Florida Railroad Company. It stayed in the family until we purchased it. It is unique because the surrounding area does not have much tree coverage. This is due to the ground underneath, which is a vein of grey marl. This is why the area is called the Allapattah (an Indian word for Alligator) Flats. We are hoping that our county stays the way it is so people will know what Old Florida really looks like. Minutes from I-95, but surrounded by the Allapattah Flats Wildlife Management Preserve. Located on Martin Hwy, which was recently designated as a Florida Scenic Hwy. Fifteen minutes to Stuart and thirty minutes to West Palm Beach, a world away from the hustle and bustle. We realize that people also love Florida for Disney and tropical paradises but if that is what you want than this may not be your kind of place.

We enjoyed the stay at Christine's and Cal's land. View on a pond with an alligator and birds around! A quiet place, yes this is the Florida we like!

Hidden Gem
This place is great if you aren’t in need of a power hookup! We have solar panels and a 2000watt battery and we’re able to set up our Starlink and work from our site for several days. Very quiet and secluded which is very different from the rest of the options in Florida. Hosts are very friendly and helpful if you need them. We also had our 2 medium size dogs with us and there is ample space to walk them. Will be coming back!

This was an awesome place to camp! Being a 1st time hipcamper I really didn't know what to expect. Loved the pond and looking at the baby gators, don't worry the pond is away from the tent sites. It was nice, quiet, and not to far from Jupiter, Florida where I went diving. I would definitely recommend this place.

Great Stay!
Great little campground! Easy to follow directions and good location. Did not have any issues with highway noise as others noted. They were flexible with us setting up our tent early as we had baseball games to go to during the day! Would recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in the area.
