Orange River Getaway With Kayaks

2 sites · RVs, Tents5 acres · Fort Myers, FL

Welcome to our 5 acre property tucked away in Buckingham Rural Community. You will have direct river access! My family fell in love with this property when we rescued it from disrepair, it was once known as "Harmony Gardens" and we invite you to join us bringing back the glory. Our property is home to all kinds of wildlife, we have cardinals, bluejays, barred owls, herons, swallow-tailed kites, warblers, huge pileated woodpeckers, and if you wander to the water you may see an alligator or manatee depending on the season. Orange River is the river that passes through the highly rated Manatee Park, we have kayaks and paddleboards available for your pleasure at an additional cost. We have typical comfort restaurants such as Cracker Barrel and Waffle house nearby but I would suggest local flavors of Buckingham Farms and Rum Bucket Grill. I-75 is about 10 minutes away so although we are tucked away, most of FL isnt too far for a day's trip.

Timberline Glamping Naples

4 sites · Lodging5 acres · Naples, FL

At Timberline Glamping, We believe that luxury and comfort should not be sacrificed when spending time outside. You will have a very comfortable bed with proper linens. You will have places to sit, places to eat, and places to charge your phone. You will still be able to wake up and have a fresh cup of coffee from a Keurig Coffee Maker. We do provide heaters in the winter and air conditioners in the summer, but remember this is a tent with a canvas exterior. The heating and cooling will be just enough to take the edge off, but will not have the same effect as a home. Most Importantly, you will have a chance to re-imagine the world around you as you make special memories with family and friends. If you are on the fence and have more questions, check out our FAQ page or please reach out to us and ask questions. It is better that you know before you go!

The best camping near Koreshan State Park guide

Overview

About

History takes centerstage at Koreshan State Park. Discover the fascinating legacy of the Koreshans, a religious sect led by Dr. Cyrus R. Teed, who were among Florida’s most unique pioneers. Gain an insight into their communal lifestyles as you explore the restored late 19th- and early 20th-century buildings and learn their eccentric beliefs about the universe. Then, recreate your own utopia as you check into the state campground, hike along bamboo-shaded trails, enjoy wildlife-watching and bird-watching along the Estero River, or take to the water to boat, paddle, or fish. Koreshan Campground has space for tents and RVs up to 40 feet, all with electric and water hookups. Some campsites even have spots to hang your hammock.

Tips for snagging a campsite

The 60 campsites at Koreshan State Campground can be reserved via the Florida State Parks Reservation website.
Koreshan campsite reservations can be made 11 months in advance for Florida residents, or 10 months in advance for non-residents.
Campsites can book up as fast, so book at least three months in advance or at least six months in advance for holiday weekends.

When to go

The Koreshan historic settlement is open daily from 8am to 5pm, and both the state park and campground are open year-round. It’s busiest over the summer months when the wooded park provides welcome shade from the heat, and with the Gulf Coast beaches a short drive away, the campground makes a popular alternative to the busy coastal resorts.
