Taste of Old Florida

12 sites · RVs, Tents10 acres · Palm City, FL

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.

Rugged C's Ranch

3 sites · RVs, Tents35 acres · Fort Pierce, FL

We purchased our property in 2017 and longed for the dream to build a home. Well, we built that home. We are now ready to share our place where we find so much tranquility with others. You can see how the old orange groves worked as we haven't filled in all the furrows yet. The old orange Grove is now home to cattle, horses, goats, ducks, and our little family. Learn more about this land: Bring your RV away from the hustle and bustle of the city to the wide open spaces of the country. The only sounds you'll hear are cows mooing, goats baaing, and horses neighing. Sunsets and the stars are a site to see out here. THE PROPERTY: The owners live on the property with their 2 children and are willing to be helpful in anyway. Children are more than welcome to tag along. Being kid friendly is a plus for us as our kids might be running around enjoying their property. Can't forget dog friendly either. Our dogs love to greet our guests. NEARBY ATTRACTIONS: If beaches are on your agenda, South Causeway and Fort Pierce Inlet State Park are only 25 minutes from the beach! Our favorite place to grab breakfast, lunch, or dinner is Carter's Grocery, which is only 4 minutes from our property. ACTIVITIES: We have chickens that lay eggs and are great for eating so if you'd like some fresh eggs, feel free to go over to their house and grab some. We have a Pavillion with a fire pit that is welcomed to be used. Our dock provides a look out on our pond. Please feed the fish some food if you'd like. Also, take time to fish in our pond and catch some tilapia or blue gill. The kids have a blast fishing as the fish are easy to catch. THE SPACE: The site you'll be staying at is close to the owners house. There are 2 parking spots on asphalt that are available for the campers vehicles or park directly at your site. The ground will be grass that the camper will park on. Please note: we have 2 gates with gate codes that shut automatically. Please be sure each gate closes behind you! We have free roaming cattle and other farm animals outside the camping area. We are always open to recommendations on how we can make your stay even better!

The best camping near Avalon State Park guide

Overview

About

For those dreaming of a beachside retreat, camping near Avalon State Park is the perfect choice. Boasting over a mile of pristine, undeveloped beachfront, Avalon stands as a sanctuary for numerous wildlife species. The park's sandy shores are especially significant for threatened and endangered sea turtles, including the loggerhead, Atlantic green, and leatherback, which choose this serene spot for nesting during spring and summer.

While the park's dune crossovers protect its delicate ecosystem, they also provide access to a myriad of recreational activities. From swimming and snorkeling to angling and sunbathing, Avalon State Park is a camper's paradise. However, swimmers and snorkelers should exercise caution due to remnants of underwater obstacles from World War II amphibious exercises. After a day of beach fun, visitors can relish a delightful meal at the sheltered picnic tables, all while enjoying panoramic views of the ocean.

An Avalon State Park camping trip offers a blend of beach recreation and wildlife observation, making it an ideal destination for campers seeking both adventure and relaxation.

When to go

The best time to visit Avalon State Park is during spring and fall when the weather is mild and the park is less crowded. Summer months bring nesting sea turtles but also Florida's heat and humidity. Hurricanes may affect the park from June to November, so check weather advisories before planning your trip.

Know before you go

Swim with caution due to underwater WWII obstacles still present off the coast.
Accessible amenities are available, including beach wheelchairs upon request.
No lifeguards on duty; all water activities are at your own risk.
Observe all fishing regulations and ensure you have the necessary license.
Stay hydrated and eco-friendly by using the refillable water bottle station at the bathhouse.
