Find your bliss on Moonlit Avenue - A private treelined driveway leads back to the primitive campsite where the deer have a regular route along with other forest animals. Goats, chickens (including a rooster), dogs and cats are domesticated nearby. Birds especially love this area and the serenade from the treetops gets better each year with a wide variety of bird songs. Owls reside nearby and bats have also been known to fly in the sundowning sky! Make sure to bring a blanket for sitting around the campfire and stargazing if temps get into the 60s or below overnight. Download the free Merlin bird ID app from Cornell University to ID your camp visitors! https://merlin.allaboutbirds.org/ Whether you're in need of forest bathing, a dip in real fresh spring water (always around 70F or 21C degrees year round!) or looking to explore by water or land, this is a great location. Just a short walk from the Hollingsworth Boat Ramp which can act as a base from which to enjoy many areas nearby for fresh water swimming, paddling, boating or fishing via public parks and private outfitters. Close to Gilchrist Blue Springs and Ichetucknee State Parks, Rum Island Park, and Ginnie Springs Recreation Park. You can enjoy this private and serene primitive camping area in a forested riverfront neighborhood with a great public boat ramp a short walk away. The camping site is about one-half acre with cleared areas for tents and vehicles. A picnic table and two fire rings are provided; one has a grill. Spring well water access currently via hose at the campsite or spigot in bathhouse. Remember, we only accept one reservation at a time so get with your family and friends and book a date for the woods! See you soon!

Forest bathing is good for you!
The limbs need to be cut back right when you make the turn to the site and I had to stop and break or push back scrubs so not to scratch the van.

Great rustic space with toilet! YES
This is a great camping spot! Lots of room for multiple tents and vehicles, but tucked away in the woods and brush enough to feel rustic and quite private. Having a flushing toilet on site and fresh water really made everything a ton easier for us all! We focused on lodging and food and fun, and no one had to panic about where or how to go to the bathroom :). Sharon gave us great suggestions for walking to the river and stopping by a local food/market/music venue. Those stops really made the trip extra special! Thanks Sharon!

Highly recommend
Amazing host. Was very helpful and we had a great time at the springs. There were two campfires and plenty of firewood to make s’mores. although it was a little hot because we went during the summer, I plan on going again during the winter.
