Authentic Old Florida Homestead & Agritourism Experience
Step into the charm of old Florida at our peaceful homestead, where Spanish moss drapes gracefully from Grandfather Oak trees, grassy hills roll gently across the landscape, and cypress‑filled wetlands welcome an abundance of bird life each day.
We raise Nigerian Dairy goats and always make time for visits and petting. Our horses and donkeys roam freely during the day and are safely boarded at night. Explore our marked trails and open land — hiking here offers a true sense of serenity and a chance to reconnect with nature.
Just minutes away, you’ll find incredible destinations like Withlacoochee State Park, Hog Island, and the Withlacoochee River — where kayaking is a must for nature lovers.
Whether you’re tent camping, staying in one of our RVs, or bringing your own, you’ll enjoy peace, privacy, and a genuine connection to the land.
Join us as part of our Agritourism Venue and experience the Ranch Experience — a guided visit where you’ll meet and interact with our livestock. Pet baby goats, miniature horses, twin turkeys, chickens, and even pigs who love a good scratch. With over 80 goats on the ranch, there’s always a friendly face waiting to greet you.

Welcome to Matos Farm at HippieCamp, your peaceful country retreat nestled in the heart of Wildwood, Florida. Our dream has always been to create a place where people can unplug, unwind, and reconnect—with nature, with themselves, and with the simple joys of farm life. Spread across 10 acres and surrounded by over 100 acres of serene cattle pastures, Matos Farm is a sanctuary for anyone looking to breathe fresh air, gaze at uninterrupted sunsets, and find peace in the natural rhythm of rural living.
Here, you’ll wake up to the soft clucking of chickens and fall asleep to the gentle hoots of owls. It's the kind of place where you can slow down, start a morning with a warm cup of coffee by the firepit, and end your day watching the sun dip below a horizon lined with grazing cows. Whether you're lighting a bonfire under the stars, wandering through our 4-acre woods with your kids, or bottle-feeding our sweet Jersey calves, every moment invites you to experience life more simply—and more fully.
Even though we’re tucked away in the countryside, convenience is just around the corner. We’re only 6 minutes from a 7eleven, Publix, CVS pharmacy, Macdonald's, coffewhops and restaurants. Plus, we have quick and easy golf cart access to The Villages, making it the perfect base for families who want to stay close to visiting grandparents while still enjoying an adventurous and rustic stay.
At Matos Farm, it’s not just about the animals or the land—it’s about the feeling. It’s the calm you find when your feet touch the dirt, the laughter shared around a fire, and the joy of watching your children run wild through the woods, their imaginations leading the way. Whether you’re looking for a weekend reset or a longer escape, we’d love to share our little piece of heaven with you.
Come stay, explore, and breathe a little deeper.
Welcome to HippieCamp at Matos Farm.

We opened to the public on Labor Day 2014. Most people come to stay either in our rental cottage or in their horse trailers/RVs with their horses to ride the awesome trails in the 20,000+ acre adjacent Croom Forest. However, because our ranch is so peaceful, many stay here without horses just to enjoy the peace and quiet. There are many opportunities to recreate in the area, including outstanding mountain and road biking, OHVing, hiking, golfing, and canoeing/kayaking. Many full-time and working RVers stay for extended periods. Note that our camping area is small and intimate, so you will be close to other campers. We have 5 30-amp hookups, and 2 50-amp hookups; if you need 50-amp service, please request it. Note that a minimum of a 2-night stay will typically be required on weekends, especially during our busy season. WiFi is available, but we call it "Country WiFi" since it sometimes can be slow and may or may not be accessible from where you are parked; also, Verizon cell service in our area is terrible. If internet access is important to you, we suggest having your own hotspot or internet service (many working RVers have Starlink). Note that GPS can be very mean in our rural area; make sure your turn off Highway 50 is onto paved High Corner Road, which is 2 miles west of I-75 (if GPS tries to turn you down unpaved, dead-end roads, DO NOT LISTEN..you will get stuck!). If you don't have your own RV, you can rent one from Ray Day's RV Rentals (229-515-7008), which is literally around the corner.

We arrived at Misty Morning Acres (MMA) in the pouring rain (much needed but not right then) and Louise and Michelle greeted us with smiles. They guided us right to our spot next to the pavilion. The location is close to everything you could need. We attended a concert at Savannah Center and MMA was a great option so we could stay in our camper and bring our pup. We won’t hesitate to stay at MMA if we find ourselves in that part of the state.

This piece of land is well loved and cared for by pure hearted stewards. Do yourself a favor and stay here! There is nothing like a piece of nature that is being well loved and just wants to love you back. The camper was a perfect nights sleep! I usually sleep restlessly in a new place. But here is slept soundly with only one small waking event. Between the bathroom, shower and kitchen setup they have everything I need to take of myself. I looming forward to returning!

Mike and Rob were excellent hosts! We didn't realize it would be so chilly at night, I brought no blankets. When Mike questioned my son about the evening, he was less than enthusiastic. He only had a towel for a blanket. Mike loaned us two sleeping bags!!
The baby goats were adorable. The young ones silly. Beware that one guy, you stop petting, he'll start tugging your shorts down!
Although, one word of warning, don't feed the free roaming donkeys at your site. And Stormy likes to redecorate.
The trails were nice, particularly one which was a shady oasis in late afternoon.
We had a great time! I highly recommend!

This spot is a little slice of heaven for those who dream of a view of pastures and horses. I would love to one day own a few acres and horse. Spotted Dance gives you a chance to observe from a distance , or if you are curious enough to inquire, John might give you an oppotunity to experiece owning these majestic animals. I got a chace to participate infeeding horses, cleaning stalls, and getting close to these beautiful creatures. Highly recommend!

The horses visited the first morning and were so sweet. They have thought of everything to make your stay amazing from clean tent site to spotless bathroom and showers. Wow and we were also treated with seeing day old baby goats. If you get the chance to visit it’s a MUST.
