Our stay was pretty much what we were looking for - secluded, quiet, and comfortable. The best part was the staff. They were beyond just friendly and professional, but were also very accommodating. They gave us a side-by-side tour of the property, let us borrow a phone charger, and even offered us fishing poles and bait to use in the two beautiful ponds. If you are looking for something secluded and quiet where you can just relax and enjoy nature, we strongly recommend.

Amazing experience from the start to the finish. The host were very quick to answer any questions before we even arrived. We had a group of 10, and the cabins slept all of us comfortably and the A/C worked amazing. Any help/questions we needed, were swiftly handled/answered by the host couple. They were amazing. Having close access to the kitchen was definitely a plus, since our group had so much food. Firewood was readily available. Our group’s favorite party was the lake. You can tell the owners of this camp have really put time into making this a fun and comfortable place to relax. We will definitely be back, and there is talk with our friend group to make this an annual trip. Also enjoyed how dog friendly everything was. Highly recommended!

Weekend Trip to Camp Strong Wood
Chris was terrific from the moment we arrived. The cabin was adequate for our needs and the outdoor kitchen on the porch was perfect. The land and the lake are beautiful. Fresh from the lake fish fried for dinner! A great getaway and we will be back.

1 night at Camp Strong Wood
I feel my words will prove inadequate to capture the essence of what Camp Strong Wood has to offer anyone who is fortunate enough to follow their sense of wonder into this beautiful land. If you are trying to have a human experience by going back to basics, without sacrificing civility and genuine hospitality - this is the place that needs to top your list.
The staff (Chris and Zoey) are wonderful and caring people who made us Floridians feel welcome from the moment we arrived late at night when they came out to greet us with a smile! The atmosphere of community, communication with the land and its creatures and features, and tangible love of what the do was so refreshing - people who are so grateful and blessed to call their stewardship of this acreage their livelihood.
Everything is sanitary and well-constructed with care. I loved my stay and will be back in the near future.
This place is well worth your time and money, highly recommend.
