PLEASE BE ADVISED that our property offers campsites on a first-come, first-served basis. While you'll be reserving an individual site, the specific campsite selection will occur upon your arrival. The availability of 30 and 50-amp electric hookups is also on a first-come, first-served basis and cannot be guaranteed depending on availability. However, water hoses are provided for all sites, although bringing your own hose is recommended. Located just outside the South Gate entrance of Everglades National Park, our farm is a truly unique destination where you'll be welcomed by the presence of wild rescue dogs. Nestled within a sanctuary bustling with various bird species, amidst an exotic tropical fruit grove, our property spans 200 acres surrounded by palm tree farms. Experience breathtaking sunsets from our southernmost western location in the United States. Fall asleep under the stars and awaken to the opportunity to pick your own tropical fruit for just $2 per pound. Indulge in our deliciously sweet star fruit, boasting ten times the vitamin C of oranges. Please note that wifi is not available on-site. Conveniently located just a minute's drive away, you'll find an array of attractions including Schnebly's Winery, offering locally crafted wines and beers. Tropical Robert's fruit stand awaits with its delectable tropical fruit shakes infused with soft-serve ice cream, made from rare tropical fruits. And don't miss Knauas Berry Farm, where you can indulge in Amish-made cinnamon rolls while picking fresh strawberries and herb sticks. Furthermore, we're only a 40-minute drive from Key Largo, offering opportunities for snorkeling and fishing in this tropical paradise.

Not My Favorite Campsite
Overall, not the worst place to stay. Please note, the GPS takes you down a barely passable dirt road with big mud holes. I suggest asking for directions. Bob had messaged me to see how we were getting to the campsite, but assured me the GPS directions were fine. We almost didn’t make it in via the awful road. If you’ve got a big truck you’re probably all set. We have a camper van. Bob’s nephew was at the front gate when we arrived and said he’d definitely help us out if we got stuck. Bob’s wife met us at the gate to let us in. It is nice to find a farm outside of the city that’s more rural with plenty of trees and greenery. My bf and I traveled down to FL from ME for a two-week vacation and we needed a place to park the van and sleep on our way to the Keys. The RV park being gated was comforting and at first the dogs helped us feel safe as well. The dogs barked late into the night and started early in the morning. There’s another review that says one of the dogs charged at their small child several times. There are roosters on the property which started crowing early as well. This was not mentioned in the descriptions of the camp. For $50, you could probably find something better. I’m glad we only needed a place for overnight.

Robert est très gentil et accueillant. L’endroit est très tranquille. Les voisins sont assez proches de nous mais très discret. Il a 4 magnifiques chiens très calme, vraiment gentil et très bien élevé. Nous y retournerons pour un prochain voyage certain…..

Pretty disappointed..
This is a pretty strange set up. The pictures show individual sites lined up along the edge of a field. The reality is there are campers parked all over the place. There was not a site open when I got there. Luckily there was a guy leaving that was parked in the road outside the camping area. He left, and we pulled into his site. However it’s just along side a road, that runs in front of the hosts site. Everyone scattered around inside has water and electric. If you are parked outside along the road you have nothing. If the camping area is completely full, it should show as full, and not accept additional campers that cannot get an actual site.

The host didn’t disclose it was rv only, while we made it known we were not in an rv. There’s no bathroom. If you have an rv its ok, but was literally packed with rvs like a parking lot. The description states firewood provided , however there’s only one place on the property for fires which was nowhere near where we were set up. The host acted as if he did us a favor by booking us and not like he scammed us. I wouldn’t go back.

Small Spaces
The sites were over booked and we couldn’t get our camper in. Then the owner claimed he didn’t know how to refund our $50. Very unhappy with the experience.
