I am in rural Hernando County, Florida. I have the ability to handle RV's UP TO 28' long. I am near world famous Weeki Wachee Springs, Tarpon Springs, Silver Springs and only an hour from Tampa or Orlando. I have full hookup on a designated rv site. I am sorry but no Class A's or 5th wheels. The County Road can be a little noisy during the day especially on the weekend. This is a popular area for on road bikers and motorcycles. However the evenings and nighttime are more peaceful. Suggested Local Attractions: Weeki Wachee Springs, Homosassa Springs, Chinsegut Hill, May-Stringer "Haunted" House and other small places of interest. There are biking and hiking trails nearby as well. Other attractions near me are Tarpon Springs, Honeymoon Island and beaches to the South.

Location
I am 7 miles West of I-75. The site is located on 3 acres of property. There is paved access onto our property from a well maintained county road. The pad is gravel and level. There are oak trees but they should not be a problem. There is a hill that blocks the view of my drive coming from the East. Once you crest a hill, just after a Hill Blocks View sign, look to your left (South) for a Black Fence and a Lime Green Cone by the road. There will be a small wood sign with the letters BW on top of the cone. Use 25626 Powell Road for GPS purposes only (My neighbors address). Do not go down his driveway. My gate is about 100 feet West of his drive. Also, Please do not go to the Neff Lake address. I am 1 mile West of Springlake Highway on the South side of road. I suggest taking a screenshot of these directions to help you locate me. I HIGHLY Recommend that Everyone especially Travel Trailers and Class C's come in from the East. It can be a little tricky to turn in with longer rigs. There is a 12' gate to enter through. I will be happy to provide more detailed directions. Tow Vehicle Parking Details: If you have a vehicle in tow you will have to unhook it. You have to back onto the site up a slight incline. There is plenty of space so you can park next to your rig. If you need me call or text 813-727-7327.

Friendly retiree. Details: Pat passed away in August of 2020 but I will continue welcoming guests to our home. Pat and I had a long history having attended kindergarten together in New Smyrna Beach, FL where we grew up. We became a couple after our 40th high school class reunion in 2003. We got into rving about 18 years ago and tried to get on the road several times a year. It could be a few days or a few weeks. I am pet friendly and enjoy meeting new people. Pat liked reading and gardening and I like woodworking. Home Town: Pat and I both grew up in New Smyrna Beach, FL on the state's East Coast. I am a third generation Floridian and Pat had lived in Florida all but a few months. She lived for many years in Naples, FL and I in the Tampa area. We moved to Brooksville in 2009. Favorite Boondocking Locations: I travel mostly in the Southern states from Florida to Texas and North to Tennessee, Virginia, and the Carolinas. Skills or Expertise to Share: I am a handyman type and love woodworking.

Nice level site with full hookups, firepit and bench under a tree (very warm and welcoming) on a beautiful piece of rural Florida property. The pond and dock are a wonderful addition to this BW property. The street noise can be loud at times during the day, but we found it peaceful at night. John is a charming host and responds quickly and clearly. Thank you John for a great stay, we would definitely stay again!

What can I say, this campsite is a gem. Gravel parking pad that is Level, water, electric and even has sewer. And John is a really nice guy. Spent a sunset in his gazebo over the pond talking, feeding the fish and enjoying an adult beverage. This was my first stay at a Boondockers Welcome site and I think it has spoiled me for all others in the future. Do follow his instructions to get there (I messed up a little and it took me about 20 minutes to get back to). He does live on a county road that is a little busy during the day but much less traffic later on. If you are really sensitive to car noise just be aware. I had no problems at all. John, thank you for an enjoyable stay and I will be back.

We finally got on road 5 hrs late for our AK adventure, so last minute change to go to our #boondockers #campNefflake before going to see friends in Clearwater. Detours are a wonderful part of travel. If I left on time I would not have spent a lovely evening learning all about NSB from my host John. He was raised in NSB before all the changes. What a beautiful space and wonderful host. #CampNeffLake definitely worth stop. 7 miles west of I 75 (Brooksville).

lol, this is a great place! John is a very nice guy, goes out of his way to make things comfortable. He even made us corned need and cabbage because we had covid when we were there. it was st Patrick's day. I caught a bass in his catch and release pond. sadly, that's about all we did. since we were sick. I look forward to going back when we feel better.
