SUMMARY
• Simple waterfront cabin w/ deck + dock (sleeps 6)
• Bunkhouse w/ ping pong (sleeps 12)
• 6 acres overlooks dock + anchored swim raft
• Outdoor kitchen + bar + commercial ice maker + stereo
• Indoor fireplace
• Indoor + outdoor hot showers
• Fully-equipped kitchen
• Onsite washer + dryer
• Ask me about the Scenic Silver River JuNgLe CruIsE (half or full-day excursion)
THE SPACE
• Ideal for groups (up to 18 or so) who seek a down-to-earth "Old Florida", fresh air experience. (The combined cabin and bunkhouse sleep 18 people. VRBO's system does not got to 18, so you may see 16 instead.)
• Group privacy is afforded under a fenced canopy of Live Oaks draped with Spanish Moss
• Facilities are modest but comfortable
• Space includes a 2-bedroom cabin with fireplace and a 12-bed bunkhouse plus generous outdoor space for activities
• The Camp is ideal for lovers of privacy, peace and quiet, outdoors, nature, birds, fishing, boating and swimming
• Ample, secure space for campers who wish to bring RV's, other toys or to pitch tents, too!
GUEST ACCESS
• Access is down a country dirt road and through a nondescript 12' cattle gate
• Safe, secure parking is abundant
• RV's, motor boats, jet skis, kayaks, canoes, etc. are all welcome
• If host is present, an all-wheel-drive SUV may be used for launching watercraft onto lake
INTERACTION WITH GUESTS
• Host will be available throughout your stay as a resource via text, phone and e-mail
• Host respects the privacy and dynamics of your party; interaction with guests may be as little or much as you prefer
• Host may not be present but, if he is, host sleeps in separate quarters
OTHER DETAILS
• The spirit of Camp Declan is to disconnect from the pressures of
modern life and re-connect with self, friends, family, fresh air and authentic Florida nature. It's perfectly okay to sit and marvel at the wildlife which teems in this private forest, take a run on your jet ski or just steal a nap in the hammocks!
• This is an unpretentious lodging option w/ great potential for fun. It is not a brand-name hotel but a "lake house" so it has plenty of imperfections and ongoing projects. Those expecting a pampered experience or spotless floors may find other options more suitable. Thank you.
NEIGHBORHOOD OVERVIEW
• Interlachen is rural and dotted with many lakes, dirt roads, pick-up trucks and mobile homes
• Fuel/convenience store is .8 mile away; sorry, there is no sidewalk
• Baker's fresh produce stand, grocery, drug and hardware stores are about 2 miles away
GETTING AROUND
• This is rural Florida; a vehicle is required
• Get $20 in Uber credit by using my referral code: dr153
• I recommend that your group carpool from home to the Camp... it's more fun that way!

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Camp Declan

My names is Declan but my friends call me Deck.
• Florida native and professional with career of 25 years in economic development and real estate. There is little I enjoy more than the groundedness I feel when at Camp. Consequently, I'm trying to see if VRBO will help me share "Camp joy" with other down-to-earth nature lovers.
