Close to horse back riding, Lake Istokpoga Park is less than 5 miles for great fishing and boat ramp access. Highlands Hammock State Park is close by. Sebring International Raceway is near by as well. 80 miles to either Florida coast and 2 hrs south of Orlando. Just a disclaimer; Sebring Raceway is 7 miles away and if the wind is right you can hear the cars racing, also, lake Istokpoga is big for airboats so we do hear them running some. We look forward to hosting you and we will do our best to make it a fun stay!

Come stay with us! Private RV and tent camping next to an acre sized pond in a woodsy warren just 1 mile off US 27 near Sun Ray, Florida.
Situated at the Southern end of the beautiful rolling hills of the Lake Wales Ridge and part of Florida's wildlife corridor we're very centrally located to many of Florida's attractions.
Frostproof, Lake Clinch. and Lake Reedy are just 10 mins away. Lake Clinch is a beautifully clear 1200 acre lake with a sandy beaches, pavilions, and a boat ramp, and Lake Reedy is a 3500 acre lake, both with consistent largemouth bass fishing, with anglers also catching warmouth, bluegill, and other species. Neither of the lakes are EVER that crowded even in the height of Snow Bird season!
Other closeby attractions include:
15 miles to Sebring Raceway or Bok Tower Gardens
20 miles to Legoland, Walk-in-the-Water Preserve, or the River Ranches
25 miles to the Chain-of-lakes in Winter Haven
45 miles from Disney
60 miles from Tampa
80 miles from the Space Coast
The property is located in Florida's wildlife corridor and there are short walking or biking trails that weave through and all around our pine forested acreage where all types of Florida wildlife; grey heron, sandhill crane, wild turkeys, bobwhite quail, armadillos, racoon, even have some otter have been spotted... even Florida's endangered Panther has been spotted recently just a few of miles away at the Kissimmee Preserve... we've never seen an alligator on the property or in the pond, but this is Florida, so use caution around any body of water.
Several tent sites and two Rv sites available.

Our peaceful Fish Camp & Funny Farm features a picturesque, palm-shaded open area (with boat dock) on magical Lake Marion!
The fenced-in property features our Serenity Garden, complete with swinging hammocks under shady, swaying palm trees. The premises is pet friendly (with dogs on property) and ideal for fishing, swimming, as well as boating/kayaking (if you're feeling adventurous) along with a washer/dryer for your convenience and a Serenity Garden for your peace of mind.
No power hookups or dump for RVs (yet!) but there are extension cords and options available for small conveniences!
Swimming is allowed in the beautiful blue lake, however this is Florida so be advised: Wherever there is water, there are Alligators!
Camping and swimming IS at your own risk as you escape the hustle 'n bustle of Central Florida (Orlando Attractions 90mins away) but isn't life itself a risk?

Perfect spot on the lake to relax. Private spot away from owner’s house right on the lake. Picnic table, fishing opportunities, paddle boat and full hook ups available. Host was very responsive and greeted us at the site. Located in a quiet neighborhood.

Camp Mack was great. We did the Alligator tour right from the park and seen lots of big and little gators. Well worth $50 per person. They also have a food truck that has excellent food, a small grocery store, golf cart and boat rentals. You won’t get bored. If you have bikes, bring them! We stayed over a week. Hubs only complaint was the internet, but they are digging cables in as we speak, so ask if that’s really important to you.

2 nights at Rasayana Cove
My son and I stayed at Ramayana Cove while we were in town hunting at Razzor Ranch, and it was exactly what we were hoping for. The cabin is rustic, but more than sufficient—clean, comfortable, and a great place to recharge after long days outdoors.
The property itself is beautiful. What really stood out were the nighttime bonfires and the sky. With no light pollution, the stars were incredible—clear, bright, and endless. Sitting by the fire under that kind of sky with my son made for some memorable conversations and a true reset from everyday life.
If you’re looking for something polished and luxury-driven, this isn’t that. But if you want peaceful, natural, and authentic Florida outdoors with a quiet, unplugged vibe, this place delivers.
We’d absolutely come back.

Stayed here for 2 nights. There were other guests but you would not have known it. Although the landscape took a hit due to Florida having one of its coldest winters it was still lovely to see how nature grows with what’s thrown at it. My 2 dogs loved running around and smelling everything. I would come again!
- direction to property are straight forward Apple Maps took me straight there.
- host was easy to get in contact with via the app or phone number.
- cell service for me was good (att)
- environment was mostly quiet. You are next to a road but that doesn’t bother me.
- a little hard for the dogs to get in and out on site 4. Went over to 6 and it was much easier.

We camped at Mike’s over a long weekend and really enjoyed ourselves. The pond had really clear water and both of my sons caught a fish! As others have said you do hear some highway noise but it didn’t bother us at all. We enjoyed the Peacefulness of the property. There was only a few campers out there so my boys could throw a football around without worrying about traffic. We had purchased wood for a fire, but didn’t realize there was a burn ban. Mike offered to refund us the money for it and that was very nice! We also payed to rent the poop caddy and Mike would come and haul it away whenever needed! We really appreciated that and it made dumping our tanks so easy. If you’re looking for a quick bite to eat the property is located close to lots of fast food options and a few gas stations just minutes away. Mike was even nice enough to let us put our paddle board in the pond and take a spin around. The pond was surprisingly bigger than I’d expected. We look forward to staying again soon!

Mike was a very helpful and welcoming host. His little paradise offers a lot of seclusion and a great view of their really large pond, which is practically a lake. I had a problem with my trailer, and Mike jumped on it and helped me immediately. There’s chickens running around with roosters and tons of different fruit trees, and a lot of wildlife and it’s a great little spot that I will definitely return to.

I had a lovely stay with my jeep and dog at Mike’s place on the pond. A hidden gem I’d say, a working organic fruit farm brilliant with eclectic old Florida rustic charm. Mike was so incredibly friendly, showing me around the beautiful property., a work in progress full of passion and love for the land. My camp site 7 was quiet, clean and just remote enough to enjoy a beautiful evening amongst the stars. The morning of my departure, Mike stopped by to gift me with some lovely star fruit. Such a thoughtful gesture and so incredibly kind. I would highly recommend Mikes place, getting away tucked into this beautiful piece of land at the pond , a quiet little piece of heaven amongst the fruit trees with a bohemian grass roots vibe.
