BONIFAY -- Outback Springs RV Resort will soon complete several important renovations to the re-branded park in Bonifay, FL. If you are looking for new RV parks in Florida or camping options, this updated park could be a destination to hit. “We’re also trying to make it a destination park,” says Australian owner Peter Swales. Scenes of stillness and serenity at an RV park sit outback or just a stones throw from Inter-state 10. As renovations are underway, guests steadily savor the casual, laid-back atmosphere. “You’re sitting here looking at the lake a wildlife,” Margaret Hoffman, of Warren, Texas said Monday afternoon near sunset, noting work on the park has been daily, but not disturbing. “We love it right here because we can sit right here and watch the itty-bitty lake and you can watch the hawk, blue heron.” Regular campers and in search of a comfortable place to hitch their 29-foot Pilgrim camper, Hoffman and her husband pulled in at Outback Springs RV Resort, 90 Son-In-Law Road, Friday after a web search. The couple came to the area to attend a camp revival and spontaneously decided to stay a few more nights at the resort to attend another church event they heard about since their arrival.
Chipley Paper reporter Jacqueline Bostick relates in her article: Owners Julie and Peter Swales, of Melbourne, Australia, say it’s the kind of trend they desire -- guests are so comfortable they want to stay. And while spontaneous arrivals are equally welcomed, the $750,000 development investment in renovating the property is geared to making the site a destination location. “We’re also trying to make it a destination park,” Peter Swales said. “People will come here for a week or so, sit around the pond, do a little bit of fishing, sit around the pool, drink a bit of Chardonnay, that kind of thing.” By summer, the site will have updated electrical and sewer systems, pool, deck, grilling area, guest lounge, new roofs on structures and new landscaping which will incorporate Australian floral and fauna. Other features include two fishing ponds, horse shoes, book swap library, laundry room, 24-hour restroom facilities, high speed Wi-Fi and golf with club and shoe rental. The couple, with a business partner out of Louisiana, acquired the eight-and-a-half acre property in September. The park was formerly Florida Springs RV Resort. The Swales are first-time RV park owners; however, caravan parks are popular in coastal Australia and attract people who are interested in local attractions or looking for a few days to break from city life and relish in a quiet and natural environment.
