Camper down by the river

My favorite part of Tampa is being able to stay by the Hillsborough River.And the Seminole Heights Area is an almost timeless reminder of my memories of the river when I was a young boy.

Great Location

We enjoyed the camper. The property sits on a beautiful river. The area has a lot of nice restaurants and a grocery store is nearby. Downtown Tampa is a short drive away. A destination Zoo, Lowry Park, is local to the area. We will come again. Thanks!

Great location and great hosts!

The camper by the river is comfortable, clean, and in good condition. No complaints, we had a great time! The location is excellent for exploring Tampa and surrounding areas. The scenery is beautiful, and Hilary and Brad are great hosts. Communication is excellent, and they are very responsive to requests. As long as you remember that you’re in a camper, you’ll have a great time. Just keep conservation in mind: no long hot showers ;-)

About the host

Hosted by Hilary Richard

Host profile image
We love traveling and meeting other travelers. We have a beautiful property and feel fortunate to be able to share it with others that seek adventure and enjoy travel.

Why they chose this property

This location is a safe quiet place to relax but within minutes of anything in Tampa. There is a patio with a grill and chairs, a picnic table and benches as well as a chiminea for your use during your stay as well as just relaxing or fishing by the river.

What makes this property unique

We offer the unique ability to provide a stay that seems remote while still in the middle of Tampa. You can wake with rowers going by on the river and enjoy the sunset from the seawall with the boats cruising by before heading out for a show or sporting event at Tampa's many entertaining facilities.
