    Great place. The office was closed but there was a member of staff to greet us upon arrival and show us to our site. The campground was very clean and in very good shape!!! The sites were level and paved! The next morning as I walking our dog a member of staff gave him a treat after asking if it was ok. The staff was very personable and helpful. It is easy to see why this campground won the Presidents Award in 2017!!! Keep doing what your doing! We had a fabulous stay and a great experience at your campground!

    Hidden Oaks RV & Campground - Hole from piece of wood camp host did not try to pick up

    Hidden Oaks RV & Campground

    I had no choice but give 1 star or I wouldn't have nothing…read more.. Stay away from this campground in mayo fl . It was sold and bought by 2 new owners who are absolutely crazy. Aug 15th the camp host hit our camper with a piece of wood , he did not pick up and it busted hole in our outdoor kitchen door. The week b4 he hit our camper on the bottom piece of outdoor kitchen area, admitted to me he knew he hit it and was sorry. I asked to stay away from our camper, not mow so close he agreed . Aug 16th the woman owner Vikki showed up to the campground and automatically started getting mad, telling me to sue her right off the bat as they would not pay to have the door replaced or fixed by a professional. They wanted the man who hit the camper to come fix it with epoxy only, even tho he is a complete pot head who can't even mow correctly , but yet he was all they would allow to fix it. The 2nd owner Vikki husband John came over after maybe 20 minutes of sitting in the camp host camper,could barely walk over to my camper(he seemed drunk or high)once he knocked I tried to go out , but he was right on the bottom step and wouldn't even let me out of my own home without having to slid around him. Then asked very aggressively "wheres this hole" sounded drunk or high and got extremely aggressive towards me once I showed him the hole and told him what happened. At which point he told me I was lying and there was no way the camp host did that hole, he told me he never gets close to these campers to even hit them, so there's no way he did that. The camp host lied tp the new owners to save his own free ride he gets for barely mowing the proppety .Well then I asked him who mows your campground sir? That was the wrong question it made him madder and more aggressive, to the point my husband and son actually came outside to tell them to just leave. I told the owner women Vikki I would get quotes and send them to her and once I told John the other owner I done told her I would get quotes , then she showed back up after going sitting in the camp host camper for about 10 mins, and started telling my husband "yeah go back inside and run with your tail between your legs". Neither myself nor my husband got upset talked out of the way to these crazy people and never raised our voices, but yet they were extremely aggressive and rude and yelled at each other. It is Aug 28th I have sent multiple texts to both Vikki and John asking what they are going to do about fixing our camper, sent the quotes to them to fix it and nothing. They have read every text I haven't sent, but will not respond at all. We have been coming to this campground for 5 years,2 months in the summer and 2-3 months in the winter, but we will absolutely never come back. I even told the new owners how loyal we were to this campground as we really liked the old owner and the camp host until this situation where he lied to save himself and how crazy they acted. She didn't care and told me we were all just here running our acs full blast and didn't care about her light bill or her taxes . She was going to just raise the rates, as she bought a money pit and after paying her taxes and light bill she wouldn't make any money, well ma'am that was your fault for not doing your research on the area . So beware and stay away, this is not the same laid back , old owner paying for the camp host mess up like he used to do campground anymore.

    This little gem is out of the way by a hop, and maybe a skip, but it's so worth seeking out!!!…read more Absolutely Beautiful place, tucked just out of the way in Mayo, FL., a charming little town. Hidden Oaks is great for Fifth wheels and med-large hitch pulls, but not super well set up for big rigs, but if you don't have a tow, it's pretty easy to get to most of the sites. The owners Jean and Troney live very closeby, and the Hospitality is off the chain. So helpful, friendly, accommodating.... this little treasure is new and is definitely their Baby. You're in for a lovely treat. No bathhouse, but full service at most sites. Some only have 30 amp, but most have 30/50 plus sewer hook-up and water.

    What a nice group of people! We weren't planning to stay in Lake City.... just passing thru !!…read more But when RV problems popped up and we were directed to Rush Truck Service for repairs. Luckily, Casey Jones RV Park was just down the street. I called late Monday afternoon, spoke to Rose, who was so friendly and accommodating. Explained the RV repair situation and that we didn't know if our stay was going to be 1,2 or 3 nights. She said.."no problem". I asked for 2 nights, not knowing what the future held. They were very flexible & accommodating. Day 3.... AM..... . yeaaaa, RV was fixed. I gave my many "thank you's" and said goodbye. We were checking out !! Well, we got about 4 miles down the road.... engine alerts came back on and we turned the Coach around and headed back to repair shop. I called back to Casey Jones RV and asked for a 3rd night. Again, they said "no problem... and said that they even saved my same spot for us". . Almost like they knew we'd be back !! Now on Day 4.... RV fixed and we got on our way to continue our trip. Besides being very close to the Truck Service Center....... This park is nice, quiet and easy in & out for our 43 ft Coach. Reasonable overnight prices as well. YES..... I would stay here again & recommend to others.

    Super friendly and nice. Really enjoyed how quiet and peaceful it was. Very clean bathrooms. Highly…read morerecommend.

We are a small, family owned & operated park with 14 sites. We offer 15/30/50-amp service, full hook-up to self-contained units only (No public restroom/bath house at this time), picnic tables, and fire rings. One of our favorite things about our park is the old general store we had moved approximately 36 miles across Suwannee County, for our future office. Many people stop by just to snap a quick picture along their journey. Keep your eyes open for different types of wildlife, including hawks, owls, deer, turkey, and rabbits. Other fun activities located within an hour drive from our location: Troy Springs State Park, O'Leno State Park, Stephen Foster Folk Culture Center State Park, Big Shoals State Park, Lafayette Blue Springs State Park, Wes Skiles Peacock Springs State Park, Suwannee River State Park, Little River Springs, Royal Springs, Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park, and a boat ramp in Branford, FL on the Suwannee River. Swimming, tubing, kayaking, canoeing, hiking, biking, and cave diving are all enjoyed around our area.

    Rustic Oaks RV Park - They moved an antique store front over 30 miles to relocate it to their property. It's super cute and eventually will become a small store.

You can park on long sites, short sites, yearly sites it's amazing. They have a place called Vinny's open every day and it's where everyone has a chance to gather to hear music, they have their own on site restaurant, mini golf, real Swing Away Golf, or play corn hole, cards, darts, fitness room and so many places to walk. Nature is everywhere and they have a section of tiny houses oh my goodness they just adorable. Everyone loves the pools, sauna and hot tubs and the laundry rooms are clean and air conditioned. I enjoyed doing pottery and they Sunday walk with vendors and an icee cream truck that drives around just like in the olden days. Honestly, they have thought of so many wonderful things, so we moved here. We feel safe with a gated community and like-minded folks from all over the US and even Canada! The staff has a helpful and down to earth. The community of Keystone Heights is small with a real hometown feel, little shops, one off restaurants and stores run by locals, they even have their own Keystone Height Beach!! If you want hometown feel with a fun life you have to book here!! A gem in the hiding.

The folks residing here are friendly & tend to watch out for one another, which is reassuring. Located on Lake Rousseau, where the fishing is plentiful. They have a small bathhouse (1 shower) & a nice laundry (3 washers @ $1.75/3 dryers at $1 per load). There's no cable & OTA is unreliable, but the wifi is excellent. TV channels are not consistent, but I really haven't missed watching it very much. Although I do watch a few channels occasionally, it's given me a great opportunity to catch up on some reading. Speaking of reading, there is a book exchange area in the laundry. These folks also own Big Bass Village RV down the road, so you can't always catch someone in the office, but the manager (Suzie) got back with me very quickly when I emailed her from the address on the website. I think the owners are really working hard to make this a beautiful place. It has great potential, it's VERY reasonably priced (lower than anyone else in the area), & are quick to answer questions or suggest sights/views/restaurants. I'm really glad that this was the RV park we chose for our stay in this pretty part of Florida.

    Best area summer camp!…read more Camp Crystal, run by the Alachua County School Board, gives Alachua County kids the opportunity to attend a semi local sleep away camp. Area parents will love the shortness of the sessions (Sunday- Friday for one week campers, or Sunday- the following Friday for two week campers.), the short drive there (30-55 minutes depending where you live in Gainesville), and the lower cost (under $600 a child.) Kids will love the beautiful grounds, fun atmosphere, and the awesome classes (kayaking, paddle boarding, water sports, wake boarding, art, frisbee, newspaper, soccer, lacrosse, yoga, and so much more!) Because it is such a desirable summer camp, registration is not easy. Those who have attended a session can continue attending that session without much effort (with just a commitment and later payment) vs others (first time registrants or those looking to change sessions) who must be online at a precise moment and move quickly to try and snag the few available spots. Registering for the first time can be a stressful hassle, but it's absolutely worth it! Once your kids have attended this camp, you 100% understand why everyone is so desperate to have their kids attend. My daughter just completed her fifth year, while my son just completed his second year. Both absolutely loved it! My husband and I enjoyed the short week of no kids life, but loved being able to see and hear how they are doing through the Camp Minder email system, and the photos published nightly. Camp Crystal is truly the perfect taste of sleep away camp for us lucky enough to live in Alachua County!
