We are a small hobby farm in Lithia, FL, looking to provide boutique camp experiences for guests looking for a nature-based yet centrally located agro-tourism family environment. Our property is six acres, and the central feature is our natural spring-fed pond with gorgeous waterfront views. The camping designated area is a one-acre pasture across the pond from the farm house we live in. If you like privacy, you will be happy to know that we have very few designated RV and glamping sites. The property sits at the end of a private road in a quiet country-like setting with mature oak trees decorated with Spanish moss. The current inhabitants of our farm include our three mini-cows, Stormy, Lila, and Boots, two donkeys, Pancho, a standard, and Cindy Lou, a mini. Another two friendly faces you will see are Liza and Louise, two Kune-Kune sows. Other animals you will see everywhere are our chickens, ducks, and other wild birds. The chickens and ducks don't have names but are also filled with personality. Our farm is strategically located. We call it 'one-hour and ten-minutes to anything'. Here's why: We are an hour away from Disney World, Downtown Tampa, the downtown St. Petersburg and Clearwater beach. Most of Tampa Bay suburban areas are also under an hour away. We are also a little over an hour away from some of the most breathtaking springs in Florida. Alderman's Ford, a Hillsborough County conservation park with over seven miles of hiking trails, is within walking or biking distance. The park's most famous attraction is a 1.9-mile paved and one of the state's most popular canoe spots. The loop, which is hiker, dog-walker, and bicycle-friendly, links with a boardwalk and footbridges leading into shaded woods of gigantic cypress and oak trees. There is also a designated horse trail. About 10 minutes down the road, the Alafaia River State Park offers some of the most radical elevation changes in the state. This topography is uncommon for most of Florida, making the park a hot spot for mountain bikers, equestrians, and hikers. The hilly trails at Alafaia River total about 20 miles and run through forests, flatwoods, and lakes. Lithia Springs is also a 10 minute drive and is well-known for its natural spring which flows year-round, cool, and clean water. Great for swimming on a hot day. Also, all standard suburban amenities, including banks, franchised restaurants, fast food, grocery stores, nail and hair salons, coffee shops, urgent care, etc., are 10 minutes away.

4 nights at Sandy Bottom River Retreat

This was a great trip! We had the place to ourselves for the most part. This was the first time primitive camping for the wife and 3 kids and a great spot to disconnect from everyday life. The cameras pointed at the campsites was a little uncomfortable, but we were able to setup behind them so we knew we weren’t being watched constantly. At night time on the weekends, the next door property had atv’s running and big guns shooting till 3am. So having good ear plugs is necessary. During weeknights, the atv’s and guns are not going. Definitely would go back again.

Awesome spots along the river. One is very accessible to the river. The river has a long sandbar that is perfect for playing and relaxing in. The water is nice and cold. No problems with wildlife getting into our stuff. They have swings throughout the property and perfect spots for hammocks. Be sure to look for the cute messages hanging from trees and you can even go home with a souvenir! 😁 The only down side is the gunshots throughout the night but it didn’t bother us at all. We will definitely be back with friends! Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful land with us.

RV Site #5. Accommodates up to 30 ft. RV with water/electric/sewage hookups. Charcoal grill and picnic table.

Really nice campground. I didn’t explore much as I just needed a quiet place to tent camp overnight after a sport event, but it was perfect for me. Site was large, with two spigots, a big picnic table and grill. Bathroom was very clean and great water pressure in the shower! Would definitely stay here again.

Very nice campsite with full hookups. The campsite is very much out in the country, secluded/private, down a dirt road etc. Our dogs could run free and play until exhausted. We need a place to stay during some home renovations, and this campsite fit the bill beyond expectations. It’s very close to all the modern suburban amenities we’re all used too, but neatly tucked away in the country for a truly great camping experience. Loved it and would do it again.

It was especially great for families — the kids loved the playground and had so much fun. Overall, it was a relaxing and enjoyable getaway for all of us. Highly recommend!

I hate sharing great places. But if peace and quiet is what you are looking for, look no more. Tucked in the quiet woods of a small town, just minutes to everything you may be in need of. Stacie and her husband we're quick to respond and respected your privacy. We will be back (we can share)!!!

Maria’s tiny home was perfect. Everything we needed was there. It was close to many sights, shopping and restaurants. Highly recommend if you are looking for the glamping experience around Bradenton, consider this tiny home. Only downside was our GPS took us to an old route, but we were able to get back on track. So if your GPS takes you to Chateau Ln Way, don’t take it, the correct street is 3rd St W.

It is gorgeous. I mean the views are spectacular. Nicest people. Clean, well kept and accommodating. I got to relax. I love how loving the cats are. Grounds are kept nice. No trees where I set up my tent so I was able to enjoy my surroundings views of the sky and the sunset. The horses. I would definitely recommend this place. Everything was perfect. There are so many parks and aces to fish. It is such a nice location. Thank you again and again. Also, the horses were well behaved and they show you the horses. You can give them noses scratches and visit them if you'd like. Carrots, they like carrots and pieces of apple.

My favorite camping spot, loved staying here as always. Very quiet and secluded, right next to the river. Plenty of sun for my solar panels, but also plenty of shade when you need it. Will definitely be back! Thanks again Kira for an enjoyable stay!

This was my first time here. The host was very helpful and she answered all my questions fairly quick. I stayed at site 1 on the river. It was very clean and pretty level for a river bank, and it was very clean and mostly quite. The only complaint I have is that site 1 does not have a lot of shade. But over all it was a really good experience and I will definitely be back if I'm ever in the area camping again.

Weekend Trip to Find Out Farms

We LOVED this location. Remote and yet close enough to friends that we were able to enjoy a night after our festivities to relax. ****IMPORTANT**** Unless you have stayed here before, I would advise arriving before the sun goes down. With its remote location, and technically “rural Florida”, you want to be sure you don’t find yourself on someone else’s private property. Thankfully, Brian has A-MAZING neighbors who happened to come by just when we were going back to our instructions on how to get to his property. He was so kind and said “follow me” and even proceeded to call Brian for us to let him know we were coming so he could meet us at the sites. We knew we would be coming in late (which we don’t prefer) but we had never been to this part of Florida before to understand its rural location. Rural is what we prefer, hence why I booked it, and we do know what to expect…but thank God for Brian and his neighbor. Brian is living a dream I have for us one day. Waking up to the quiet and trees surrounding us, only able to see what we assume is the helpful neighbor’s adjacent property. We WILL be back. For more than one night next time. The kindness we were shown was amazing and it’s a blessing to know those people still exist in our crazy world. In the morning, seeing the kids have fun outdoors was joyful. Making their own “slip n slide” and enjoying the sunshine and outdoors with each other. Love it! Thank you Brian and family…and neighbor…for a great experience. ❤️
