Stegbone's Fish Camp - Cabin 1

Nestled on the banks of the St. John’s River, Stegbone's is filled with an incredibly tranquil beauty. It is an old-time place first established around 1875 as Seminole Groves growing citrus and began as a fish camp in 1946. It just doesn't have the distractions of normal daily lives. Instead, you experience starry nights, campfires, sunsets and easy conversations with old and new friends...not to mention some of the best fishing around.

Forty miles of the Ocala National Forest and other undevelopable land lie to the west across the river. Expect to see all sorts of wildlife: eagle, manatee, alligator, turtle, red fox, wild turkey, great blue heron, pelican, egret, owl, osprey...they all look in periodically. We are in the backyard of the Great Florida Birding and Wildlife Trail and the Bartram Trail.

The St. John's River provides excellent fishing. Nicknamed 'The Bass Capital of the World', there are many tournaments in the spring & fall. Favored fish besides bass include many of the bream family, copperhead, shell cracker, red bellies, crappy and bluegill.

Great for one couple or two good friends. One big room subdivided into eating/relaxing and sleeping areas. Private bathroom with shower and closet area for hanging clothes. Wall AC and gas heat. Double and twin bed, ceiling fans inside and on the screened-in front porch. Pet friendly. See website for policy. Cabin 1 has Wifi and cable tv.
