Held at Hidden River Resort
Just North of Jacksonville, FL near Maclenny, FL.
Hidden River Resort is an 88 acre facility located 16 miles north of Maclenny in northeast Florida. (it's 39 miles from the I-95/I-10 intersection in downtown Jacksonville.) The Site features Hot Showers (4 indoor and 2 outdoor) with a small hot tub attached, swimming pool, a 30 x 60 stage, a 20 x 40 pavillion, decks, and 15 full (with septic) RV hookups, and 11 power/water hookups. The Property is neat, clean, and the facilities are solidly constructed (We will not ever overload the power on this site, I suspect) and we will have plenty of room to grow. PhoenixPhyre 2004 was our first festival held on the new property, and it met our needs very well. We can look forward to a wonderful festival on an incredible property.
