Nestled on the banks of the St. John’s River, Stegbone's is filled with an incredibly tranquil beauty. It is an old-time place first established around 1875 as Seminole Groves growing citrus. It began as a fish camp in 1946. It just doesn't have the distractions of your normal daily life. Instead, you experience starry nights, campfires, sunsets and easy conversations with old and new friends...not to mention some of the best fishing around.
Forty miles of the Ocala National Forest and other undevelopable land lie to the west across the river. Expect to see all sorts of wildlife: eagle, manatee, alligator, turtle, red fox, otter, wild turkey, great blue heron, pelican, egret, owl, osprey...they all look in periodically. We are in the backyard of the Great Florida Birding and Wildlife Trail and the Bartram Trail.
The St. John's River is all about excellent fishing. Nicknamed 'The Bass Capital of the World', there are many tournaments in the spring & fall. Favored fish besides bass include many of the bream family - copperhead, specs, shell cracker, red bellies, crappy and bluegill.
