Currently the property is raw land. With very little touch of man. It is in an old country neighborhood that touches a newer neighborhood with plenty of dining choices.
There is a natural unkept pond with mucky dark water that has Lilly pads.
There are parts of the Econ river that rise and lower with the seasons.
There may or may not be chickens running the property.
There are fallen trees and overgrown areas. There are some internal fences with gates we are working to remove or restructure.
There is parking for off grid rvs. No amenities are offered currently.
We behaved leashed dogs are allowed.

Tons of shore to fish and explore. Awesome to see all the animals roam freely throughout the campsite and the restrooms were the best I’ve seen for a campground. Will be back but next time I’ll be getting food to feed the goats and longhorns!

This farm was perfect for our stop over on the way to Fort Myers. It was fun watching the BMX racers. There was lots of room to park in their field and walk with our dog. Very quiet starry night! Thank, Will for hosting.

We had such an amazing experience here. From arriving and seeing the adorable animals and scenery, greeted so friendly, and setting up camp at such a beautiful spot on the water. The place is kept up well and offers so many cool experiences with the trails you can walk on, water and the goats and cows you can feed and interact with. Such a unique experience even just staying for a night was wonderful. Will definitely be returning. Highly recommend! So much fun

Tent camping was fantastic. My two boys loved being right on the water and that the goats and longhorns walk right up to the tent. Clean showers and bathrooms, friendly staff, and small camp store stocked with camp essentials. Will definitely return in the future

The south end of the pond is close to a highway with pretty loud traffic noise so I moved around the pond to the west side which was much quieter. At one point Mike drove by and told me there was no problem with me switching sites. I was there for two nights. The first night it rained pretty hard but it didn’t bother me. The next morning it was still raining off and on and since I didn’t have any specific itinerary I just hung out and enjoyed the quiet and privacy.

The tent camping was peaceful, and the site was comfortable. There was plenty of shade, and, to our surprise & delight, our site had strings of solar lights that helped us see but did not take much away from the natural ambience. The lights were far enough apart that we still enjoyed our view of the night sky.
April, the host, was hellpful, as was her husband Jerry. Chris & Kendall Campion, the owners, swung by one day to check everything out. They were very hospitable and made us feel welcome.
The shower was hot, and the facilities were basic but did the job as described.
The farm animals were an added treat that enhanced both the sights and sounds of the experience.
We didn't take advantage of the play areas this time, but we plan to return this Spring with our kids & Grandkids for a relaxing time away for our whole family.
