Nice, out of the way campground. Excellent host. Beautiful sunset over the lake.

Definitely 5 stars! This campground was an excellent December 2023 basecamp for our Florida Trail day hikes and other nearby exploration to the north and south. We were very comfortable in our backpacking tent sheltered by some palmetto, with a nice hot fire nearby. There was plenty of dead and down turkey oak to cut with a small backpacking saw.The hosts were great at checking in during morning and evening, and we had some entertaining conversations. The bathrooms were clean, and the showers had hot water. It was on the cold side for swimming (40s to 60s F), but the lake swim area looked like it would be great for the warmer months. The loop trail around the lake was nice and would be decent for trail running loops. Our hip waders allowed us to explore the Florida Trail and Trail of Lakes segments north and east of the campground in dry luxury (there had been a large rain event a couple days prior, and water levels were just below knee level in a few spots). Hunting season does see a lot of traffic on the fire roads on the weekend, but weekdays on hiking trails was secluded (no other people, just wildlife). No mosquitoes during the cold spell, but some ticks during the warmer days (as expected).We hope to return one day during the spring months to see pitcher plants (saw a sundew this trip!). The poor mobile signal was a plus for us, since we wanted to get away and unplug. Absolutely recommend this location!

Very quiet location, small campground with good hiking right from the campground.
Bathrooms clean and nice hot showers.
Unfortunately we were there during deer season and it’s a very popular hunting location.

We will ho back! The lake was pristine and the area friendly.
