HYMER FLORIDA MEETUP

Hosted by Michelle Huber Ratajczak & Jane Arthur

Ocala National Forest at the River Forest Group location near Deland Florida

the three night price is $75 per Hymer and this event is SOLD OUT.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE PLACED ON A WAITING LIST please contact one of us through facebook.

The Group Site has lots of open shaded areas with picnic tables scattered throughout.  We will be drycamping as a group within the central driveway area (there is some shade) – no hookups or dumps but a KOA is near enough if needed.  There are restrooms and showers and an outdoor dishwashing station.  A large shelter with tables and chairs has fans and electricity and large grill behind it.  There is a group fire pit near the shelter.

It is a state park so please be mindful of state park rules.   It has access to the water for kayaks etc ( it’s Florida – there are gators and occasionally bears/raccoons – we will practice bear/food protocol just to be on the safe side). There is a camp host who may be onsite for our event – the park will be closed to the public.

There is a park limit of 125 people
