We’re sure you’ve taken a trip to Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge before but did you know about the overnight experiences available at the big cat rescue? For a “pawsitively” perfect summer adventure, let’s pitch a tent at Turpentine Creek’s one-of-a-kind campground.
The sites are tent and RV friendly and are $65/night for two guests. In addition to the water and electric hook ups, the sites even have wifi!
You've probably taken the tour through the big cat rescue before but not as many people take advantage of their one-of-a-kind camping experience. Turpentine Creek is open every day (except Christmas) from 9 am - 6 pm.

Campsite #1 is the closest to the tigers but every camper will be able to hear the roars throughout the night. The campground has six sites to choose from but it's easy to see why the first spot is the most popular.
And unlike the accidental encounters that can happen with alligators or bears in the woods, these big cat encounters are safe!
One of the perks of camping here is that you'll get free admission into the park as well as two trolley tickets for the guided tour.
