7 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents14 acres · Holt, FLWooded, FHU, tent and Glamping Sites! - Welcome to Gateway Trails! Our site offers a place to stay as a gateway to Destin, Okaloosa Island, Pensacola Beaches and waterways, or to the expansive local activities in the Blackwater State Forest and surrounding rivers, including hiking, hunting, canoeing, and kayaking!
We have: 3 FHU Sites - Water, electric, and Sewer at each site. (One 50 AMP + Two 30 AMP sites); Boondocking Site, Primitive Site, and Glamping in our refurbished 2003 Dutchman Camper.
The site is on fully fenced in 14 acres. The campsites are behind a natural barrier of trees that offer privacy. Though we are a peaceful setting, there are neighbors beyond the fence and you may hear donkeys braying, roosters crowing, cows mooting, or dogs sounding off to deer moving around in the woods of the state forest. There are well maintained walking/biking/hiking trails are on the property, with many shaded sections. Porta potty on site for our tent campers and boondockers, but coming soon - a bathroom house w/ flush toilet!
Our Sites: Red Oak Nook has 50 AMP power and we have an available converter from 50 AMP to 30 AMP. Go Bull's Landing and Long Leaf Landing both have a 30 AMP power hookup.
We also offer Cozy Camper at Long Leaf Landing for an amazing "glamping" experience with A/C, microwave, refrigerator, and RV bathroom & shower! We also have a primitive site and Boondocking site.
A large spacious boondocking/tent site and a walk in primitive site!
Something for everyone!
We are pet friendly! Though pets need to be on a leash outside of your site.
