Great place. Just what I needed!

I liked being here so much that I ended up extending my stay which I will probably do again. This has to be one of the best places here on this site that I have stayed at. The host, Jon, has been very accommodating and available at all times, even checking up on me when all the storms rolled through this area the past couple of weeks. The facility itself is awesome. It is nice and quiet and comfortable with electric hookups and water and even a camp kitchen which is a very nice touch. I will definitely be staying here again! 👍😁

Tent · With pets

This place felt very secluded. You can hear the interstate from the sites, but it’s still very peaceful and beautiful. Unfortunately, didn’t see in alligators. Nice road to walk the dogs on. It was a little bumpy and muddy, but very easy to navigate. Close to the river, and a lot of greenery.

Great, secluded spot

5 m car

Jon was a great host. His place was very nice secluded right on the river, it was just what I was looking for. He even had power with an extension cord to top off my power station. There was a nice level spot to park my van. I arrived after a heavy rain storm so the road took a little finesse to get back to the campsite. But it was ok for me. I will return hopefully to stay longer.
