Tent Camping

Experience the simple joy of primitive camping at Blackwater Joe’s, where outdoor lovers and families can truly unplug and reconnect with nature. Set on a private riverfront property in Holt, Florida, this peaceful retreat is ideal whether you’re staying overnight after a day of canoeing or settling in for a quiet weekend escape. With no electricity or water hookups, the campsite encourages a slower pace, surrounded by towering pines, open skies, and the calming flow of the Blackwater River.

Explore an easy-to-reach nature getaway just a short drive from Pensacola, Fort Walton Beach, Destin, Crestview, Defuniak Springs, and Mobile, Alabama. Campers love the riverside setting, offering direct access to canoeing, kayaking, tubing, and relaxing sandbars without needing to drive anywhere once you arrive. Spacious wooded sites, crackling campfires, and star-filled nights create an off-grid experience that feels remote yet welcoming, making Blackwater Joe’s the perfect base for your river camping adventure.
