If you need a place to camp near Jacksonville you'll find there are not that many choices. The one everyone recommends is Jacksonville's Hanna Park. Getting campsites on weekends is really hard in Florida, especially the state parks. So when we found we could not get a state park near by we chose to hunker down at Hanna Park until our reservation at Anastasia later this week. Many rave about this park but we found it to just... OK. Beaches are awesome. Bike trails too. But the campground amenities could use a little, well a big, refresh and update. But we made the most of it and loved our time at Kathryn Abby Hanna Park.

We’ll have to look into a smoker that we can fit in the garage, I think that would be a great idea. Thanks.

Enjoyed this episode! By the way, I’ll be staying at Hanna Park soon to attend the Festival in Jax! Thanks for the review on the park! I was always doubtful on picking a site, but we’ll make it work regardless! Hugs, brother Owen!

It hard to pick a site online, but I’m sure you will make it work just like we did. The park has so much to offer, I hope you have a great time there and at your festival.

It is nice when beaches are dog friendly, I agree! My comment might not reach you in time for this excursion, BUT.... when you are in the area again, since you like brussel sprouts, head up to Amelia Island and try the brussel sprouts at Amelia Tavern on Centre Street- they are delicious! You can take the Mayport Ferry from Mayport and head to Amelia Island when the ferry is running. :) I love your videos- you do you and we'll be here following along on your travels!

Hey guys still enjoying your travels I see. We are hoping to head to Labrador and NFLD this summer. Hope to run into you guys for a visit. Be safe ❤ ps funny how you did a bit on fire pit. I am thinking it would be perfect dry camping on a high rock cliff over looking the ocean. Neil and Sandy

Hey guys I think you were bit hard on Hanna Park. Yes, there are some smaller angled sites which all campground have but the majority of them are good sized with privacy and full hookups. There is a nice lake for kayaking with tons of birds and a great walk-on beach. The surf fishing is great and as you said one of the few parks that allow dogs on the beach. It is also a top notch mountain bike training area. I am surprised you did not go to Singletons Seafood Shack in Mayport right on the St Johns river. Next time you come you should try staying at Huguenot Memorial Park which is right across the ferry from Mayport which is also a City of Jacksonville controlled campground or perhaps Little Talbot Island State Park which is great for smaller campers. Enjoy Anastasia, it is also one of our favorites but very hard to get reservations for.

Wow, those steaks were Huge! I'll be heading down to FL in less than two weeks for a vanboree with GSLL and then on to TX to take a peak at SpaceX in Boca Chica. From there, it's anyone's bet. Happy and safe travels and say hi to Maggie for me. Pets are precious and we don't have them for very long. My sister's dog, Rosey is near the end of her journey and we sure will miss her being around and so sparky...

This was awesome. I didn't make it all the way to Florida this winter, so Owen, you were rubbing it in in the first scenes, but I feel the same way about standing most anywhere in FLA. Thanks for featuring Hanna Park. Next time I go I will aim for this park instead of trying to sleep at a Buc-ees. It missed my radar completely. Trying to book sites at county parks is hard. I've tried to get a site at Kelly Park many times and have yet to succeed. Lynn, do you have any pointers or hacks for researching dog friendly places? Today is my birthday! Happy Birthday, Owen!! I can't wait to see Anastasia! (I've stayed there, and I booked it on my phone laying on a gulf coast beach the day before.) Thanks for all you do. Peace & Prayers -extra for Maggie!

@VANTREKKINGlifestyle Жыл бұрын

I hope you had a Happy Birthday! I don’t have a lot of pointers on finding dog friendly places, just read the rules wherever we go. You can Google “Dog friendly beach” on google maps, we do that sometime and also parks, when we are traveling around. We so appreciate you following along each week.
