[Snookerd]

Time to put it out there.............

[Ryank]

Some Ideas are;
Anclote again
Durney Key off of New Richey Cottee River, Close to Hooters and Crab Shack andmany other bar and restaraunts on the water with boat access,and dogs are allowed,
Desoto was also alot of fun.

Anclote was a lot of fun, very primitive camping.
DeSoto was super nice, but been there done that twice.
Durney Key? The few photos didn't show any beaches for camping... Ryan, been there? Tell us more.
It's tough finding a place for 15 or more boats!

Durney Key is a small little Island /Key right near the mouth of the Pithlachascottee River or Cottee River for short, its roughly 2-3 acres plenty of room for boats to anchor up, You can camp anywhere yoyu like, either on the beach, or closer into the tree areas.while being less then a mile from bars and restaraunts up river Its a couple of miles NW of Ancolte, and is right next to the New Port Richey Channel with Quick easy access to offshore. The bad is it would be primitive no bathroom or showers but we have sun showers and a porta potty, and shower enclosure, etc so not a big deal for us but some may not be as accepting with it. We have space available for a few trailers close to a boat ramp by our house, and there are several ramps in the area.

Frankly Anclote has eroded quite a bit, last time up the beach area was pretty much gone - I like the Durney Key idea

Another option I will keep an eye is the south end of anclote, were all the sand from the north end went - much closer to the bathroom and showers at the ramp - will get up there soon

ESD-The comments I get for location always revolve around on site bathrooms and shower. Are the facilities still not with a shower nearby?

Spent July 4th at Durney it was AWESOME! No bugs, no crowding, just good old FUN!!! On the way in we passed a barge that had a Fireworks display going off. My eyebrows have almost grown back.....
