Panasoffkee Eco-Cottage
Secret garden...but with fur-babie!
So pretty! This was my first time ever using a compost toilet but it was just fine. The pets made me feel completely at home and the property was AMAZING!

Great site, great hosts
Fantastic place to stay. Nice quiet place off the main road that has everything you need. A nice jacuzzi nice cabin and where else will you get the chance to feed & pet water buffalo?

Wonderful Camping Oasis
This was our first hipcamp experience and it did not disappoint. What a wonderful place. Nancy was such a gracious host who gave us access to just about anything her property had to offer. The animals on the farm were super friendly, there was fresh produce to pick, and lots of wood to make a campfire. You can take bikes out, use the hot tub, and the bathrooms in the eco lodge (if it isn't booked). Right across the road is a trailhead if you want to hike the local state forest. There are lots of spots to setup camp- tons of shade and privacy. Highly recommend this site!

Awesome time and new friends :)
We had a great time at this Eco-cottage! Everything was just as expected according to the listing or better and they were just the sweetest people ever! I loved meeting the water buffalo and the dogs were very well behaved and helped us fill the gap from missing our own dogs :) I wish we had more time to spend there as we could've talked to Nancy and Wendell forever and would love to have had time to sit around a fire chatting with them! The 3 of us truly enjoyed our stay in this perfect sized cottage and set up. Thank you so much for everything, including the hospitality and the citrus fruit! Hope to meet again!

Nancy and Wendel were amazing hosts! You get to choose from various locations on their property, and they were so kind and welcoming. They have beautiful native plants on site, so many butterflies too! I would definitely recommend staying here, as my first HIpcamp experience they set the bar REALLY high. It was very quiet and dark at night which made it really cool, heard several different owls and there was a beautiful moon at night.
