Camp David
Overview
Overview
Camp David in Inverness, Florida offers an authentic slice of the Citrus County landscape for road-weary travelers and campers. Situated along the spine of the Sunshine State's central ridge, this property provides a grounded basecamp characterized by the rural tranquility and towering pines typical of the Withlacoochee River watershed. RVers seeking a departure from dense coastal resorts will find a quieter pace here.
Location & Surroundings
Travelers generally reach Inverness via US Highway 41 or State Road 44, navigating a region defined by rolling hills, ancient oak hammocks, and sprawling citrus groves. The local climate delivers classic north-central Florida weather, featuring warm, humid summers and mild winters well-suited for extended outdoor stays. The terrain sits atop the Floridan Aquifer, creating a landscape laced with subterranean springs and clear waterways.
Amenities & Park Features
Specific on-site infrastructural details remain unverified by the property name alone. Because amenities such as 30/50-amp hookups, water pressure, dump stations, and site surfaces vary widely, visitors must contact management directly. When calling ahead, be sure to ask about specific accommodation dimensions, pull-through versus back-in access, and vehicle length limits to ensure your rig fits comfortably within the grounds.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
The surrounding region serves as an outdoor recreation hub, highlighted by the Withlacoochee State Trail, a 46-mile paved multi-use path ideal for cycling and long walks. Water enthusiasts can explore the Tsala Apopka chain of lakes or visit nearby Three Sisters Springs in Crystal River to observe manatees. Historic downtown Inverness offers local dining, antique shops, and access to the Liberty Park waterfront.
Who This Park Is Best For
This location suits independent road-trippers, anglers, and nature-focused travelers who prioritize scenic seclusion over luxury resort features. Snowbirds and regional campers looking to escape Orlando or Tampa traffic will appreciate the slower, nature-driven rhythm of the area. It acts as an effective waypoint for those exploring central Florida's inland ecosystems rather than its theme parks.

The campground is under new ownership since December 2023. Currently closed for improvements. New landscaping improvements to facilities. The new owner is great. It will be a family-friendly campground. Clothing required. Name changed to "River Oaks RV campground & retreat". Web and phone not updated yet. Looks like rooms are being upgraded or removed. Sadly, not much can be done about the road. Each section is owned by the individual homeowners that face the road. They built out there for privacy and / or lake access. Maintaining the road would take a coordinated effort and then faster traffic and more volume.

Camp sold... Gays are out of a place to go... The camp will have a new name, Open to women and children. No nude allowed, after 20 years of a gay men's camp, we have no place friendly place to go... Shame on the new owners....

Been going here since I moved to FL (10 years) rooms are shabby, location is deplorable, service (check in) is good. And the guys are 1st rate: total nudity, friendly atmosphere...can't ask for more...

Had a great time at camp and will return next year. Would like to see some improvements, like maybe a few coats of paint, updated/better selection of videos and perhaps keep the hot tub available for sore night owls. Staff is awesome and most visitors and full-time residents are friendly and fun. Ample parking and showers are available inside and outside. There is also a camp store and washer/dryer machines. Looking forward to our next visit.
