About this property

Riverfront Lodge and Camping Retreat 5-bedroom + 6 RV Site Venue on 13 acres

Have you ever dreamed of having your own private campground with lodging and multiple RV site hookups for a family/large gathering? You've found the right spot. Come share the wonder of camp at our place on the rolling Suwannee River. Enjoy the vast, rolling river front on 13-acres with lodging and RV sites for your family and/or private gathering. Are you looking to camp with a private feel but with key campsite amenities? Then, you're ready to setup camp here. Sutton River Ranch provides camping property directly alongside the Suwannee River in Florida. Accessible by road or by river, you'll get to enjoy the best of both worlds when it comes to land or water adventure. Kick-back and enjoy the natural surroundings of paved walkways and wild animal crossings or a walk along the paved roads. Alternatively, spark joy by jumping into the cool spring-fed waters of the Suwannee (no alligators!) and the pristine waters of nearby springs (Turtle Springs 2 miles, Rock Bluff Springs 5 miles or Ichetucknee Springs 20 miles). There are 9 total springs within the county. The spacious 90 foot floating dock located on property is a great place to soak in the sun, watch a sunset or take plunge. The property is open to BYOV (Bring your own vessel). This property is a gem for water-loving campers!
