Located on 5 acres in the Ocala National Forest, Hookie's Hideaway is the perfect place to stay for easy access to all of nature's bounty and activities.  This property is easily accessible, serene and peaceful. Campsites are in a beautiful grove of pine and sycamore trees. We are surrounded by forested camping areas and close enough to drive into town to pick up groceries or get a meal. We have a "you pick them" blueberry farm when in season. We are close to hiking, horse trails, lakes and springs. Bocce Ball and Croquet is available to play here anytime! We are only a short distance away from amazing horse riding trails and Florida's most popular natural springs. We live on the property and are available during normal business hours. We are free to ask questions and give suggestions for surrounding activities and dining options. We will interact as little or as much as you need. Birds singing in the morning and crickets at night ensure a restful getaway here. Our property is the perfect place to escape the noise and high paced city life.

Hookie's Hideaway Forest Camp
Very welcoming and friendly hosts, especially Dave! He showed us all the property and gave us a smores kit!! Only the restroom left something to be desired, but for one night it works. We camped with our tent in a very private place! I had a firepit ring, a grill, two chairs and a torch available to help illuminate the place! We loved our stay because it is a place with a lot of trees, but for those who are afraid of spiders, I recommend staying in one of the trailers rsrsrs. We had a very quiet night and with that pleasant sound of rain falling on the tent!

If you love nature, you will love camping in this little vintage trailer. It is rustic, but it is very clean. It was very quiet and private.

Camping with the family and pups!
We enjoyed very much our stay at the Petal Pusher, it is very nicely decorated and functional. The beds are very comfortable! The kitchen has almost everything, just bring what you need to cook, spices and oil. We didn't see much of the owners, but they are very nice and accommodating. Will definitely go back.

My husband and I had an absolutely incredible time in The Pedal Pusher. We spent five nights there and really hated to leave. The hospitality was outstanding and Wes and Cassandra were so accommodating. The land is beautiful and don't miss the chance to use the outdoor shower!!! We cannot wait to visit again.

We had a lovely stay at little lulu while we explored the surrounding springs. It had everything we needed to cook some simple meals and special details like s’mores fixings and charcoal for the BBQ. Fresh eggs were the cherry on top! Great stay.

When we initially saw the reviews about this place in the internet, we were a bit sceptical as to the amount of positive reviews this place had. But once we were there, we realised that place lives upto the hype. Walt has been phenomenal and he showed us around. Anything and everything we needed were in the little camper. The place is serene and very calm. It was an amazing experience and we are definitely coming back again.

Best stay ever!
My boyfriend and I only stayed one night but this was the best tent camping experience I’ve had so far! Cassandra and Walt gave very clear instructions for getting to the site as well as for the outhouse and extra firewood. We paid a little extra for a bundle of wood to be left at our site but were greeted by not only that but a little cooler full of s’mores ingredients, a charcoal grill and lighter fluid, and the nicest metal fire pit ever. The ground was dry and there were no bugs, somehow we didn’t even see a single ant?! I would absolutely love to come back and possibly stay in one of the adorable campers or cabins that they have! It was literally perfect except for the occasional gunshots from hunters but that didn’t bother us lol

Peaceful camping 🏕
Cassandra and Walt were very accommodating 😃 quick to respond and friendly. My wife and I stayed there one night (1/21) and it was so peaceful. The trailer was cute and bed was comfy. Just what we needed to get away from the hustle and bustle.

It was great being able to have a camping-like experience in nature and the Ocala National Forest while still having all the amenities. We are so thankful that the cottage is pet-friendly. The hosts were kind and quickly answered any questions we had. We enjoyed having access to a fire pit and wood. One of the chickens provided us with a fresh egg, which was a special experience. There is so much about this cottage and property that is unique! It is perfect for a relaxing trip.

10/10 Do It! Perfect Girls Weekend
Love love love this site! Of all of them, I think this one is the cutest. We had three adults (girl friends) stay and had enough room for our stuff and to sleep (2 in main bed & 1 on the converted table). We found the beds comfy!! Fire ring was the best part. After a long hike, it was so perfect and Cassandra made sure we had plenty of wood, fire starter and even set the tinder/wood up for us to just light and enjoy! With s’more kits. 🥹 Kitcheneyte works and we cooked fresh eggs for free from the chickens (we went into the coup ourselves - so fun. We hiked 12mi ptp on the Florida Trail one day, then it was only 25 mins to local springs for some paddling.

Cute 1947 trailer with all the kitchen utensils you need. The inside has towels, a trash can, a broom, and a table. The bed was comfortable and the A/C unit worked great! The outdoor rugs right outside of the RV were helpful to keep the inside clean. Firewood was provided and more was nearby. She provided s'mores ingredients which was great! The out house was very clean and the outdoor shower was stocked well.

Large open space and exploring was encouraged. Fully expect flocks of ducks and their guardian goose to wander by throughout the day

Good lodgings, wrong address listed
Overall the trailer was good for what we expected (though the second “bed” was more like a cot) and the hospitality was great. We did not expect the Ritz and was perfect for our hiking trips. Though they forgot we added a day to the trip, they made sure to have the lawn mowed and s’mores supplies delivered. Unfortunately, we spent an hour driving around trying to find the location and contact the owner. The address on the listing is incorrect so please confirm with the owner before you leave. There is no service unless you have att but you can get service a few miles up the road closer to Ocala, which was how we were able to contact the owner. Even with WiFi it was impossible to send text messages without iMessage or an app, just fyi. It’s on a quiet road with other homes surrounding it and has a cute historic home next door. The fire pit was great and I would recommend this place. Just confirm the address before you head out.

Fun family-friendly farm stay!
I love this place! Kids loved visiting with the chickens and Ping, the gosling. We are farm fresh eggs every morning and kids played and ran outside all day. Cabin was the perfect little gathering space for us in the evenings and the grill, fire pit, and outside seating completed the weekend. I was fascinated by the sound of sandhill cranes flying overhead in the afternoons. Perfect home base for exploring Ocala National Forest and Silver Springs. And Walt and Cassandra are great hosts. There when you need them and very responsive.

Walt and Cassandra made us feel better than home. My family spent an unforgettable time in this beautiful place. The cabin is equipped with everything! it has all the comforts and utensils. The BBQ and firepit area are wonderful! We really enjoyed the tranquility and the contact with nature. It was possible to go to buy groceries without problem. We are very grateful for the experience and we are looking forward to returning
