Personal RV's may park on the Camp 1 property, No Fire Works of any kind due to local laws. No outdoor fires permitted. Smoking permitted in screened in porch with high-top Bar type table w/Barstools, sundeck or outside. No debris from cleaning of scallops or fish are to be thrown back into the canal. You must wrap your carcasses and dispose of them in the trash. Small amounts are OK but large amounts cause problems. Thank you in advance! "Please" ALL PETS LEFT HOME ALONE AT CAMP 1 MUST BE IN A KENNEL! Camp1 has a kennel available for you to use or bring your own. Place the kennel inside before leaving, so your fur baby can stay cool. We also have food and water bowls for the fur baby. Backyard is fenced in for them to roam but always walk the fence line first to make sure that any critters haven't broke fence. As for your fur baby, we only ask you to crate your pet if you leave it unattended for any length of time or if your fur baby gets a little too excited in a new place while left alone. We do not expect you to cage or leave your baby outside for your stay. This is a standard request for most pets. I know I would crate my Dog when I leave him alone at a Vacation Rental. My baby is very curious by nature, but every pet owner knows their fur baby's personality and how much mischief they can create when left alone in unfamiliar surroundings.
Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a kitchen, a washing machine, and a fireplace.

A great place to stay

My fiancĂ©, two pups, and I stayed here for a couple of days. We had a great time and the property was clean and even had a fenced in backyard that my dogs loved. Neil was so nice and introduced us to his son’s food truck that was out of this world and just a short walk away from the home. We would definitely stay here again!

This property is in a perfect location for anyone wanting to bike or kayak. Unfortunately access to the river from the canal was blocked due to downed trees and we notified the property owner and he indicated he would report the problem so the canal would be cleared. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. The master bedroom mattress is great but the pullout couch isn't very comfortable and would be best for kids! Overall we enjoyed our stay and I would stay again.

Relaxing stay

This older trailer is very roomy, comfortable & close to many area attractions, shopping & restaurants. Neil was available to answer any questions & tell us where to explore. When not out & about we enjoyed walking, biking & sitting on the back porch watching salamanders, Osprey & other birds & reading. We will definitely be back in the future.

Little piece of Heaven

Most relaxing and stress free vacation I ever had. As the listing states it is a camp. Nothing fancy but very clean and comfortable. Sitting on the back deck drinking my coffee was like my little piece of heaven. Neil was the GREATEST host!! I go to Fl. at least 2x a year and have stayed numerous places BUT now I have found my home away from home! Definitely recommend Neil's camp for a great get away.

The stay was nice, an older mobile home but was clean and cozy

Neil called to let me know everything was ready and if I had problems he was only 20 minutes away. The Wi-Fi was a little weak in the area but we were still able to enjoy a good movie in the evening. The only thing I could suggest is to maybe put a anti slip mat in the shower, it was a bit slippery.

Scallop Trip 2021

We had a wonderful stay! Everything was clean. The backyard was huge! It is right behind (stumbling distance) from old mill bar and grill which we loved. You could hear the live music from the screened in porch. I could see how that might be a turn off for some but we really enjoyed it. Communication with Captain Lisa was easy with quick responses. We would definitely stay there again!! Thanks Captain Lisa!

Cute place in great location

Overall, this place was a great place to stay. Everything worked although outdated. The only thing I would recommend is a larger hot water tank. My now husband and I stayed there with his two teenage daughters and the hot water ran out after a short shower. All of us trying to get ready for the wedding there just wasn't possible. Otherwise, it was a nice place and we would stay again

Great for Fishing. Be prepared for noise.

My father and I stayed for 4 nights. Neil communicated well and was very accommodating. The one thing that was a surprise was that the Trailer was located next door to a loud Karaoke bar. The music and singing could be heard up until 10 pm. After that we were able to go to sleep. The property was beautiful and big. The porch was perfect and boat parking was awesome. The beds were comfortable and everything functioned well in the trailer. We would stay again but bring earplugs the next time.

Very Comfortable

Older, very well maintained trailer. The backyard to canal is very nice. They keep it very clean. It is a place to come, kick off your shoes and relax.. until the music starts from bar next door. The music is good with very good bands. We even went out on the deck for some of it. It is loud. Thankfully, it ends around 10:00 pm, then peace and quiet. Very friendly people that own it. Very helpful. Great value. Enjoyed our stay there even though we were in town for a family member's memorial service. This is our second time to stay here and we will stay here again.

Exactly what we needed

This is a simple, clean and perfectly located rental. It has everything you need to be able to put all your worries away and just relax. It is a manufactured home with some age on it but if you aren't worried about newness but value clean and safe this is for you. Neil was very nice and helpful. The deck and screened porch was heaven. Sitting in the sun with Florida nature, right there! The mudic from next door wasn’t too bad. I wasn't expecting it on Wednesdays but we just went with the flow. The bar is a local spot with nice people and good music. Don't miss the Smash burgers at the corner! Simple, not fancy just comfortable and clean so you can relax. Perfect.

Good stay with a few wonderings

The unit was older, but extremely clean and comfortable. Proximity to local boat ramps was excellent. All communication with the owner about accessibility of the unit due to the recent storm was very pleasant. Unfortunately, we found the property's dock to be inaccessible by boat. That may have been due to the recent storm, we are not sure. Locals did indicate that the canal the dock was on was narrow and shallow with trees blocking it in places. We also did not understand the locked and inaccessible doors that we found within the unit upon our arrival, or that the outdoor electrical outlets seemed to be without power for charging our boat batteries. Lastly, we were left curious by the vehicle that quietly arrived late each evening of our stay and remained in the unit’s parking area overnight. Aside from these things that left us wondering, our overall stay was good.

Camp 1

We rented this property for a month while looking for a place to buy. The house is in walking distance of a couple of restaurants. We were busy looking for a house so we did not have time to enjoy the water access that the house offered but our dog did enjoy running around the large fenced yard. Neil, the owner was very helpful with local information.

Very Cozy, EXCEPTIONAL HOST!

This was our first experience and our first stay in Homosassa, Florida! This rental was very cozy! The decor in the home made it very comfy and it felt like home! Neil and Lisa were phenomenal hosts from check in to even after we checked out. The back yard is huge, the porch and sitting areas they have provided made any room you sat in outside, very comfy! The King bed in the main bedroom was super comfortable, I couldn't figure out if I wanted to stay in bed....or venture out to do what we came to do! Thank you Neil and Lisa for providing us with a comfortable place to stay while on vacation. We will be back to visit your cozy rental for sure!
