Clean friendly and reasonable. We stayed a week here passing through for some shows in Tallahassee. Close to highway(but not too close) Clean shower/bath house. Outside-anytime coin laundry. Clubhouse. Large pull thru sites if you need a quick over night stay or longer. Great trail for walking the dog. We would definitely come back.

If I could give this a zero I would. Wished I could have seen this place but NO! I booked 3 months ago and was called 2 weeks before arrival to confirm . 1 week before arrival I get a call saying park is full. How does that happen when I was already booked. Trying to see family for Christmas. Oh well I found a better place. I will mark this place off my list!

We have been traveling to and from south Florida since 2018 as full timers & have noticed skyrocketing prices & more corporate takeovers in Florida RV parks. So, for us to find this one, conveniently located off I-75, level pull throughs, very good wifi & a laundry room, all well kept & priced at nearly half what so many others along the I-75 corridor charge for one night, Futter’s is a godsend!

The owners are just good down to earth people. Craig works everyday continuously upgrading things and was always there to lend a helping hand with anything we needed. All the neighbors were super nice. Caroline was always really nice and helpful. The grounds are very clean and well maintained. Shower house is always clean. Trash pickup twice a week. Community campfires every night. LOTS of weekly/monthly events. And with full hook ups and great WiFi, you simply can NOT beat the price! We'll be back next year! Thanks for everything!!!
