Camping at Huguenot Memorial Park
We spent the weekend camping at Huguenot Memorial Park, a city campground in Jacksonville, Florida. This was the perfect spot to enjoy the beauty of nature, passing ships and relaxing on a white sanded beach. Campsites The campsites at Huguenot are close together, but it didn’t feel crowded to us. We had a corner spot, #43, that was located near the road to the beach. The roadway can be busy with vehicles at times, but traffic stops a 7 at night when the beach closes to vehicles. The campsites have electric hookups, which is fantastic for running your air conditioner in the camper. There are no water hook ups. We…

Relaxing at North Beach Camp Resort
We spent a few days this week relaxing at North Beach Camp Resort in Saint Augustine, Florida. It was a great way to social distance, but to also enjoy fresh air at the beach.

North Beach Camp Resort is situated off the coast of Saint Augustine on a barrier island. It is ideally located near the beach, which is one the reasons we chose this location to camp. The campground is close to the historic sites of Saint Augustine. Castillo de…

So with trepidation last week we loaded up the camper and brought our Lysol as ventured to the mountains of South Carolina. Camping is the ultimate social distancing activity. We kept to…

Crooked River State Park, Georgia
Our last camping trip of the year was spent at Crooked River State Park in Georgia. It wasn’t ideal camping weather with all the rain and cloud overcast. I don’t think we saw the sun the whole trip, but we didn’t let it dampen our camping adventure. Crooked River State Park Crooked River State Park, Georgia is ideally located just over the Florida border outside the small town of St. Marys. It was a fairly short drive for us and was a great location to explore the coast. We had hoped to visit nearby Cumberland Island, but didn’t realize that ferry reservations were highly recommend. We missed out because of…
