Found this adorable spot while traveling I95 to Florida. Good caramel lattes, very friendly staff & the chocolates from Le Grand Confectionary were amazing! They have a cute gift shop with local items including honey. It's also a wine bar and has games for the kids to play while there.

Adorable coffee shop and wine bar, run by two super sweet ladies. I had the most delicious oat milk latte! Perfect location right off the highway and open until 9pm which was awesome!!

Good coffee, reasonable price, but no pastries or anything. The woman (Denise) making the coffee was not polite at all, asking us "Why are you here?" Very awkward. To get coffee?
Everyone else was nice though.

I just stopped here briefly for a latte and to use the restroom - but I kind of wish I was staying here because it's so cute! The latte was delicious and the restroom was clean.

Great vibe in this charming coffee (and pizza) café in a tidy and friendly KOA campground. Clean bathrooms, too. Convenient travel stop off of 95!

What a pleasant surprise! This coffee shop and wine bar in a KOA campground was a delight! Good selection of syrups and non dairy milk. Wish I had more time to look around the little shop.

Located in the office of the KOA campground. Adorable coffee shop and very friendly service. Great options. You will drive through the woods and pass a motel. Trust your waze directions, you are going on the right direction. Lory was great. Support local!

We love this campground. It’s 3.5 hours from home so we stop every time on the way north or south on 95. We always pop into the Swimming Mermaid, have a fantastic pizza, a beverage and make a new friend! We’ve been coming for four years and it never disappoints!
What a hidden gem!! I’ve had very mixed experiences at KOAs so I only planned a one night stopover and I regret it. This KOA is absolutely beautiful and I wish we were spending more time here. We are tent campers usually but I’ve learned the hard way to always get a cabin at KOAs. However, I’d tent camp here. The tent sites are quiet and away from the RVs. We are staying in a rustic cabin (me + 3 teenagers and a dog) and we are comfortable. There’s a grill, fire pit and trash barrel on our site. The dog park is a ways in the back and our morning walk was pleasant. The sites are shady and the bathroom is pristine. The kids love the pool. I was surprised by the camp store- they have the essentials and also more upscale offerings. They serve wine and beer in the evenings and espresso and lattes in the mornings. They showcase local artisans’ lotions/ soaps. I always appreciate the access to local products. The best part, of course, is the interaction with the people. RVers and campers create community and listening to their stories made my evening. The owners of this KOA seem very intentional in how they create community and I felt the warm welcome. 5/5 A+
Extreme hospitality is the best way to describe everyone who works here! Clean campground with tons of amenities! Stayed 2 nights in a 40’ Class A and spacious sight that was perfectly level with just the right amount of shade. Pizza on site is very good. Small but nice beer selection too. The best KOA we have stayed at!!
