All our Waterfront RV Park Sites in the Campground provide you with a full hook-up station, which includes 30 & 50 amp electric, water/sewer, internet access, concrete slab, and a picnic table.

They comfortably accommodate RV's with pullouts on both sides, up to a maximum of 38' in length, plus a towing vehicle, which can be parked at the parking area for extra cars. The River Circle Lots has a fishing pier, campfire area, and gazebo with games, like ladder ball and corn hole, for entertainment. Cypress Creek Lots are away from the action, near the pavilion, the log cabins, and the charcoal grill; you are closer to the clubhouse, the BBQ Area, and the laundry. Long-term & permanent guests are welcome, and we specially designed the beautiful secluded palm court section for you, which is also priced at a long-term rate.

Tent Camping

All our tent camping sites are on 16' x 16' Wooden Decks close to our large shelter with a bathroom, mini kitchen, and picnic tables. They are as close to nature as it gets on Discovery Island. Set up your tent under ancient Oak and Cypress trees, surrounded by birds and squirrels. Enjoy the campfire area surrounded by benches, or rent one of our canoes or kayaks for a river exploration or fishing trip, then return to camp and relax under the stars. Discovery Island is perfect for a larger group or family who likes privacy and enjoys being alone at the campfire.
