Bell Oaks Ranch is a wonderful place! If you want to spend some quiet weekends with R & R, or bring friends to enjoy a night of fun, sharing stories around the campfire while making s’mores, grilling hotdogs and making popcorns and lots of awesome reasons why we choose to go camping, consider Bell Oaks Ranch. We met the horses and they’re adorable!! Our camphost, Taylor was very helpful. Glad to see her again after many years! ❤️ We loved our site and we got to meet our friendly RV neighbors from Canada. It was fun walking at historic Dearborn and looking at amazing works by our Florida artists. Manasota Bay is beautiful!
This is our 1st booking at HipCamp and it’s a great experience.

Wonderful stay! Our spot was perfect. Quiet area - central to our weekend plans. Hosts were exceptional and welcoming. We arrived very late, after a long day of travel - and my reservation had a glitch. We were able to work it out with ease.
We stayed in site 3, which was ample for our RV and trailer with the Harley. Enjoyed using the fire ring, watching the horses and peacocks.

Our family stayed at this property with our Class A and it was fantastic. Seeing the beautiful horses walk past you as you relaxed in the shade was amazing. When we ventured out to the beach, we were there within minutes! Friendly host and a clean shower and bathroom available. Memories made for sure. Would absolutely stay here again! Special thank you to Beth ;-)

We loved staying out here!
My daughter loves horses, so she immediately fell in love with the resident horses. My son also had a blast enjoying the space outside! We got to help groom the horses and the kids even got to ride them. Since we don’t live far, this will be a great weekend trip! For sure coming back. Thank you all!

We had a great time tent camping at Bell Oaks! The 3 sites are near each other, but the other campers were never a bother. The bathroom with shower is very close by. We appreciated the fire pit and wood that Taylor and Austin provided. We enjoyed seeing the horses throughout the day. The location was very convenient to get to nearby shops, the beach, and also the spring training baseball game we attended. We definitely hope to come back.

We loved camping here! The area is very nice and feels remote but is close to a supermarket. Beautiful horses on the property. 💜 The hosts seem like genuinely good people and were very accommodating and friendly. Would definitely camp here again!

We recently had the pleasure of spending a month at Bell Oaks Ranch campground, and it was an unforgettable experience! Six beautiful campsites tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city, nestled among palm trees with horses pasturing in a U-shaped area surrounding the grounds. The natural beauty makes it perfect for peaceful mornings, biking to the farmers market, kayaking excursions, or working on your tan at the beach. The hiking/biking trails are close, and there are lots of scenic spots and activities to explore. We biked, browsed the stores and markets, gathered seashells, enjoyed the local bars and restaurants, and seen the sights throughout the area. Spending time at the beach, shopping and dining with the locals and biking through the area was the highlight for us.
Our campsite was spacious, clean, and level, with a fire pit and garden table. Taylor, Austin and Beth are incredibly friendly and welcoming, offering us helpful tips about the area and making sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay.
There is a communal bathroom with a hot shower on the property. For campers, you must be self-contained as there is no sewer for dumping gray and black water. You can empty your tanks at a local campground down the road, or via a 5-gal bucket in the toilet every couple of days.
Overall, Bell Oaks Ranch exceeded our expectations. This is the place to be, and we can’t wait to return next year!
