I'm happy to offer fellow travelers a place to park for a night or two at my rural, 5.6 acre, heavily treed property that is a very short drive from exit 423/ I-75. My property is only 7 miles to Lake City's downtown with restaurants and shopping. (Walmart, Lowes, Home Depot, Cracker Barrel, Napa a micro brewery and more.) Centrally located in scenic country, close to several State Parks that offer day parking, hiking, tubing and also camping. Suggested Local Attractions:I suggest visiting this web address for ideas.

Location
Access Road Conditions: We are 2 quick miles off of I-75 and on a good paved road. My tree lined driveway is hard packed sandy soil that will not be a problem. However, the driveway is curved and not too wide but if you're a Big vehicle it might be best to back in. To cover that issue, I'm requesting rigs that are driven and not trailers or 5th Wheels.. ie: Class A, B, or C's recommended, as they can be driven in and out with normal driving skills. No trailers or 5th Wheels please. Thank you for understanding. I'm also limiting rig size overall, to 30' as a precautionary measure. If towing a car, note that the road is quiet, so you can detach your toad on the side of the road in front of my house if it is necessary to back in. View the drawing of the driveway and parking areas in the 'photos section'. Tow Vehicle Parking Details: There is 'plenty' of room to park your towed(toad) vehicle up near my home 🏡.

Very woodsy property that gave me a lot of needed peace. A little road noise but not bad. The host messaged me letting me know he wouldn’t be there but but to enjoy my stay. i had the place to myself and my choice of 3 camp sites. There’s water at all 3.

Great spot…easy access from I-75. We stayed two nights…great waking up to the symphony of birds singing! Lake City had everything you need to restock and repair. Sadly, the host was out of town so it was just us under the trees. He was quite gracious in his communications. There is road noise from the highway, but it wasnt an issue.
