We've lived in FL all our adult lives and have a Stick & Brick on a couple acres about 40 miles NW of Tampa, 5 miles from the gulf. We have invited boondockers to stay with us in the past and have always enjoyed their company. Well behaved children are welcome.

We are not fond of in-your-face, yapping, noisy, snippy, licking, or very hyper pets, but have no problems with a couple of well behaved pets that are picked up after.

We raised 6 kids and have 15 grands scattered around the country, so we are often on the road visiting & exploring, but usually home Nov through April.

Guests welcome for 1-2 nights. Can connect to good well water and to 15amp exterior plug if needed. Would appreciate a couple $ to defray electric only if using significant ac or electric heat, otherwise not necessary. Generator use is fine. Wifi available on the covered deck, provided not extreme use such as large downloads.

Favorite Boondocking Locations

We often stay at highway rest stops, Flying J, or Walmarts in between destinations. Would like to stay in prettier places, but our motorhome size & weight often preclude that.

rosegramma's Hometown

Hudson is an unincorporated town on the NW edge of the Tampa Bay Area. All the advantages of a small town but close (35 min-1 hr) to the amenities of bigger cities - Tampa, Clearwater, St Petersburg, Lakeland. We have nearby a small beach with a nice open-air beach bar, and are 45 min -1.5 hr from world's greatest beaches (Dunedin & Clearwater). A County park, reastaurants, propane, dump sites, Walmart, many other stores nearby. Weeki Wachee State Park (home of the mermaids & great kayaking river) 10 miles north. 2 hrs. to Disney/Orlando. 50 min. to Crystal River (swim with the manatees!).
