The Wandering Path, Primitive #5

We stayed at Primitive #5. The site was awesome, we had a wonderful time floating down the water in our floats! Amanda was a great host, and I loved how she did the bathhouse, super cute and so much attention to detail to include anything her campers could need! Oh and the stars out there are so pretty and bright at night!

A wonderful getaway planned by Amanda and I am so grateful that she went above and beyond to accommodate a surprise I had for my girlfriend. If you are thinking about Glamping this is absolutely the spot to go!

The Wandering Path #8 -hike-in site

Amazing Campsite!

My partner & I booked a one night stay & couldn’t have asked for anything better! This is by far the best campsite we have stayed at. Everything was super clean & secluded. The bathroom & outdoor kitchen were such great additions & not a far walk from our site. Sandbars all around us - easy to float the river & the host was so friendly & helpful. 10/10 would recommend & visit again!

The Wandering Path Yurt #3 (w/AC!)

Beat the Heat!

⛺ This campsite was an AMAZING way to get outdoors during the heat of the Florida summer. We stayed at yurt #3 which is just a few steps away from the river, so it was extremely easy to walk our paddleboard down. There are also kayaks for rent but beware, the water moves quite swiftly! If you wish to paddle far, you may spend a good amount of time paddling back. Nonetheless, it was amazing to cool down by the water as the AC unit cooled our tent, which only took a few hours. We made dinner and breakfast using some of the cookware Amanda has provided (toaster oven, griddle, 2 burners, Keurig) - just be sure you clean this communal space afterward! 🐴 There are also some other fun things to do in the area, like fruit picking, local rodeos, restaurants in Milton, and trail riding. The Wandering Path is a perfect stop on a drive through FL, and a perfect staycation for the Panhandle locals!

Great camping trip on the creek

Hi all Camper! If you like to be close to nature, near water and still comfortable this's your place. We found this place via hipcamp and we design to book it. Definitely is the best decision 🙌 the place is accecly as described in website, the price is great. Their is the bath house, main kitchen space and our camp site have everything we need. We love the location not to far from town and water front. We love the sand bar and beautiful creek over there. If you have kids! This's the safe place for your kids to play around the shallow creek on the private camp site property. We plan to recommend to many of our friends and family. Thank you to our wonderful host Ms.Amanda , you did a wonderful job out there💓💓🙏🙏 can't wait to go back again. Love you.
