Smokey Acres

15 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents10 acres · Brooksville, FL
Welcome to Smokey Acres! This property has been in my family for decades. My Husband and I were married under the oaks and have had our share of campfires out there. Down a hidden gravel drive with wetlands on either side you will find a completely fenced in field surrounded by pine, oak, and swamp maple trees. There are two ponds located on the property both stocked with bass, bluegill, and sunfish. The front pond is home to many natural Florida wildlife and is a great location to bird watch. Located a few miles from Brooksville and the Suncoast Parkway, this quiet and peaceful setting is just 5 minutes from the parking area and trailhead for the Suncoast Trail and 10 miles from the famous Weeki Wachee Springs, where you can spend the day at the local park or float down the river with the manatees. Withlacoochee State Park and other natural preserves with trail access and kayaking are only a short distance away, and Dames Cave, Homosassa Springs, and Chasawiska Springs are all within a ~20-minute drive as well. Spending a day at the beach is easy with plenty of options along the Nature Coast. We’re also less than an hour from Tampa and Clearwater and two hours from Orlando. A perfect weekend get-away for anyone looking to “unplug,” Smokey Acres is also a great stop for those passing through the area. We are a close distance to many racing, livestock, boating and fishing events. We have no problem accommodating whatever you’re towing! Whether you'd like a leisurely day on the river or an adventure in the Gulf, there are plenty of boating options nearby. Be sure to make it back to the property in time to enjoy amazing sunsets that bring peace and tranquility to your experience. Our neighbors, JG Ranch, offers U- Pick Fruit and Vegetables or a great selection of local harvest at their roadside stand. This 10-acre property has been in my family for decades. My Husband and I were married under the oaks and have had our share of campfires together out there. I've recently moved back home with my own family and as much as we enjoy the land for ourselves we'd love to share it. Any profit from hosting campers will help us maintain our sustainable farm that we're hoping to expand onto Smokey Acres. Just in! Our dirt road has been repaved. So no worries about a bumpy drive in!

Secluded Canal Life

3 sites · RVs, TentsInverness, FL
I came back to FL for the 6th time and fell in love with my stilt house and it's location. There are canals on all three sides but not directly in my yard. This gem sat empty 5 years waiting for me.  She was brown and tired looking, I jazzed her up and brought her to life with bright colors and my eccentric decorating ideas, and animals. You can meet my Munchkin cats, my MaCaw, Jasmine (she bites) and my little dog, Jax, while visiting. I have one neighbor, on Leaf Ct., across the street, Carolyn, and that is where Happy Hour most days is at 4:00 pm. We usually have cheese and crackers, snacks of some sort but beverages are BYOB. I have 1 fishing pole, bait bucket, fish holder net ready to fill up from her dock. She has one fishing Kayak available to rent for $15 a day. You can park your airboat at her dock too. Sometimes I offer specialty dinners as well, reasonable prices. Canal Life is a pleasant adventure, a little out of the way, a true hidden gem in Inverness. The property is large enough for a couple tents to stay in front while you are here, invite your friends. The flowers and the butterflies, the birds, owls, San Hill Cranes, and other critters may cross your path...Learn more about this land:PRIMITIVE, bring your own drinking water and toilet.  Perfect camp for those that like privacy.  Inverness, off of Turner Camp Road,  come by airboat or drive in.  Friends/family can bring tents or self contained vehicle.  Your area is large and you can put several tents here. I think my property is the perfect place for a couple or a small group to camp and have a great time but have all the privacy you don't get in a campground.  The campground has a charcoal grill, a firepit, rod iron table with seating for 4.    We are right past the airboat dam off Turner Camp.  Blacktop road down to site and water. Close to Inverness Fireworks, or you can shoot them off across the canal. Access to the Tsala Lake Canals at the end of road, 3 mi to the Withlacoochee River and free public boat ramp. The property is on a peninsula walking distance to airboat dam.  We are somewhat isolated but only 1/2 mile to a convenience store, 7 miles to town. No one ever comes down my road unless they know where they are going. Go to Rainbow Springs, Withlacoochee Bike Trail, See Manatees or Hunt Scallops in Crystal River, Going to Disney or Orlando, stay in your tent here and save.  Right now you can pull an RV in there if you can back down the street.
