Royal Springs Retreat
This was our second visit and it did not disappoint. We love the location, its peaceful and quiet. We have already booked our next visit. Christine was amazing as usual! I 100% recommend. Also, if you don't camp and are looking for a nice place on the river to rent Christine & Tony also have a nice river house right next door (Royal Spring Riverfront "Treehouse) that you should definitely check out!

Royal Spings Retreat
This was one of our best trips we have had to the springs yet. Royal Springs was just a half mile down the road or river from the camp. We were able to access the kayak and the canoe to float down the river also. The set-up was great and even though we did not catch any fish from the dock it was still a relaxing trip. We visited a total of 4 springs which are within 30 minutes from the site. We really enjoyed Christine's place.

This was a very nice camp site to share with friends. The host was helpful and friendly. The one suggestion for future guests is if you have a big RV, back into campsites to avoid multiple readjustments. The Royal spring was less than a 1/2 mile from the campsite. Very convenient.

Paradise
This was our family’s absolute favorite camping trip. It was beautiful and peaceful. Easy set up for our 30 foot camper and our kids had plenty of room to also tent camp. Our pups loved the space they had to run and play. Christine let us know before our “cancellation deadline” that Royal springs was still a bit murky from the Swuannee River run off but that didn’t keep us from having the best time. Christine was also incredibly generous by allowing us to use a canoe and kayak so we were able to paddle down the river and enjoy making memories. The signal is spotty there but we didn’t mind at all because it gave us an opportunity to enjoy our family. There’s a charcoal grill, cook utensils, fire pit, picnics tables, folding table, shovel, and there was even some wood left over there to build a fire. It was so private and peaceful. We will be returning many times in the near future. Thank you for sharing this absolutely beautiful piece of paradise Christine.

Private spot on the River
Wonderful, private spot right on the river. Had everything we needed including a place to put in our canoe and our dog enjoyed being able to roam around. We went through hurricane Debby while there so things weren't as relaxing and peaceful as it would be with good weather. The owners, Tony and Christine came over after the storm to help us get our canoe out of the water and help cut us out from the downed trees and branches. It was very much appreciated and they are great people! Loved the spot and we will be back - later in the year....

Best private campground so far!!
This campground have everything you need! Pack your personal items and head that way! I had so much fun! Power, water, sewer and CABLE! The overhang is great for rainy days. The steps to go down to the river is beautiful! The included cayaks, paddle board, life jackets, charcoal, grill, etc was very nice! I love how quiet it was and I really did not want to leave! Definatly coming back soon!!!! The spring is so close and the dirt road are perfect for RV/Trailers.
