Unexpected greeting

We were really excited to camp in north Florida. This place looked really eclectic and fun. We had no trouble finding the property. The driveway is a bit hidden but William gave great instructions to get there. While William was super kind, We were not expected to need to be greeted. We were a little confused that we weren’t given instructions on where to actually camp on the property and had Mis communicated about the timing so we showed up without knowing where to go. There is separate parking from the actual camp site which was a little off putting as newer female travelers. We would have preferred to have our cars next to us. We also prefer not to interact with male hosts while on site if we don’t have significant others with us because it feels safer. Since we arrived close to sunset, needing to be greeted by a male host was not our preference. We ended up deciding to leave but William graciously refunded our stay. He was so helpful and had no qualms about us cancelling our reservation. For me, needing a map or instructions before hand is essential, and I hadn’t thought to request it, so I know for the future to ask ahead of time.

Awesome experience at wildcat creek! Bill was a great host making sure we had firewood and letting us stay in a school bus when the weather got bad. Nice secluded spot for a weekend getaway.

Wonderful Experience

Bill was a wonderful host. He showed us around the property so we knew where the facilities were & what was available to use. Composting toilet were nice to have close by and plenty of water taps. He left us to our own time to enjoy nature, but checked in to make sure we were good. The property is nice with some pretty trails if you want to go for a walk. Close to other hiking trails around the area, and only about 1 hour out of Marianna for the caverns. The only thing that may people may not like is you can hear the traffic on the highway next to the property. It didn't really bother us, but I know some tent camping may want to be aware. Watching the chickens come around the morning was a plus. Would highly recommend checking this place out!

Our host was so nice. He was very accommodating. We forgot to bring a tarp to place under our tent. Mr William was very kind and loned us one of his to use he also provided a table and set up a handycap restroom for my use so i would not have to walk so far . We didn't get to finish our stay due to the weather but I would definitely stay here again.

Living with the Land

Wow! What a neat place! This place truly is an educational experience for many aspects of living with the land. It was refreshing to leave the craziness of life for a day and step into their quiet, natural lifestyle. The host family is so friendly and accommodating! I can't wait to go back and see what the earthship looks like once it's completed!

Bill’s place is just wonderful. My daughters, 6 and 3, stayed for the 4th of July. We ended up staying in the school bus apartment which was very comfortable. It was July, so the bus was quite hot during the day but it cooled off sufficiently for sleeping at night. Bill was so kind and showed us around the place/even helped my daughter get into the creek to play. We will absolutely be back! My 6 year old just adores Bill.
