This was my second stay with Judy and Butch. I arrived immediately following a severe storm which meant the river was running high and swift. Judy kept me updated on any flood concerns. And invited me to join her on a beaufiful morning walk. Look forward to my next stay on the Suwannee.

 this place is absolutely fantastic! The host and hostess are awesome! The location allowed us to RV spaces right on the banks of the Suwanee River. There is a guest trailer that can be used to shower and has a screened in porch for plain cards or 42. Also, there is hey gorgeous outdoor shower available, and a restroom, very close to the RV sites.

This property is beautiful situated right on the river. The hosts are the most amazing people whom are friendly but made sure we had plenty of space and time to ourselves. The property is so peaceful and private, definitely our favorite stay so far!

Yes, this is the river. "Suwanneeeeee, how I love ya, how I love ya, my dear ol' Suwannee..." "Way down upon the Suwannee River..." Probably in my top 3 Boondockers Welcome stays, and I've stayed at quite a few. Butch & Judy are incredibly accommodating, responsive and sociable! The river was literally 25 yards from my RV. Be aware that when it starts getting hot and humid and you're near the swamp part of the river you're going to get bit by bugs. I hiked out to the swamp because the photography opportunities were amazing! So, lesson learned. Knowing what I know now I'd love to come back!
