About Bennett Field Group Camp
Escape into the wilderness at Bennett Field Group Camp, where primitive camping meets community spirit in the heart of Tiger Bay State Forest. This rustic retreat welcomes groups seeking an authentic outdoor experience, complete with essential amenities like picnic tables, fire rings, and grills gathered around a central communal area. While the facilities remain delightfully basic—including pit toilets and non-potable water—the real luxury lies in the 27,000 acres of pristine forest surrounding you, offering endless opportunities for adventure and connection with nature.
Bennett Field Group Camp offers a primitive camping experience with no modern facilities, focused on outdoor group activities.
Historical SignificanceStep back in time as you explore the storied grounds of Tiger Bay State Forest, where history literally paves the way for modern adventure. The crown jewel of the area's heritage is the remarkable Pershing Highway Trail—a mile-long journey across original brick roadway laid in 1917. This scenic path offers more than just a hike; it's a tangible connection to Florida's early automotive age, when this innovative highway represented progress and possibility. Today, moss-covered bricks and weathered surfaces tell the story of a century gone by, making every step a journey through time.

ElevationThe campground rests on Florida's characteristic gentle terrain, where subtle changes in elevation create diverse microclimates and ecosystems throughout the forest.
Natural Features and SceneryImmerse yourself in one of Florida's most ecologically vital landscapes, where sprawling woodlands merge seamlessly with pristine wetlands to create a tapestry of natural beauty. Tiger Bay State Forest serves as nature's own water treatment facility, playing a critical role in recharging the local aquifer that sustains communities for miles around. Dotted throughout this vast wilderness, both natural and man-made lakes mirror the sky, while ancient trees draped in Spanish moss create cathedral-like canopies overhead. This diverse ecosystem supports an incredible array of wildlife, from wading birds in the wetlands to deer threading through pine forests, offering endless opportunities for nature observation and photography.
Geological RegionBennett Field Group Camp sits within the remarkable Tiger Bay State Forest, a 27,000-acre testament to Florida's geological diversity. This expansive preserve showcases the state's unique hydrology, where ancient sand ridges alternate with wetland depressions, creating a mosaic of habitats. The forest's geological foundation plays a starring role in the region's water cycle, with sandy soils allowing rainfall to percolate directly into the Floridan Aquifer below. Scattered throughout are numerous lakes and ponds—some carved by nature over millennia, others created by human hands—each contributing to the complex watershed that makes this area so ecologically precious. This geological diversity not only shapes the landscape's beauty but also supports the incredible biodiversity that makes every visit a new discovery.
