Stories from the community

2 nights at Private Getaway in the Woods

Nice little spot. We needed a last minute booking for a couple nights and they went out of there way to let us stay. Quiet place down a remote dirt road.

2 nights at Higher Ground "The Barn"

Such a beautiful and peaceful spot! Amy has a fire pit and firewood available. I love the quaint feel of The Woods III. I definitely want to camp there again!

1 night at Happy Campers Rescue Ranch

Candid Review of Our One-Night RV Stay We spent one night in this RV and while there were some positive aspects, our experience overall was quite difficult — especially with a child. The good: The host was truly kind, responsive, and tried to help with the issues that arose. I genuinely appreciate his effort and communication. However, there were several serious concerns: • Safety for children: This is not a kid-friendly campsite. There’s an electric wire fence meant to keep animals inside the enclosure, but it’s easily accessible to children. Despite the warning signs, kids are naturally curious. My child accidentally touched the wire and received a painful electric shock, which was very distressing. • Cleanliness: When we arrived, the bed was made, but there was a strange white stain on the bedsheet — clearly visible once we lay down. That was uncomfortable and concerning. • Water and lighting issues: There was no running water at night or in the morning. The toilet didn’t flush properly and we had to pour water manually from a kettle. Several lights inside the RV also weren’t working. • Disturbing sight in the yard: Most shocking of all — there was a burned goat in the middle of the property, still smoking. My child saw the charred animal with the skull visible, and it was extremely traumatic. There was no warning or explanation, and it completely changed the tone of our stay. • Animal interaction not as pictured: We chose this place hoping for interaction with ani

Great place and would stay here again! Thanks for the accommodations!

4 nights at Camp Gilchrist

Camping with the whole field to myself. Wide open skies for the stars, and the sunset glow extended above the trees.

2 nights at Homosassa Springs RV Site

We loved camping at Alonda’s campsite. Nice shaded lot with easy access and hookups. There was outside dining and nice packed gravel which kept inside of camper clean. The amenities offered were great. We could use back deck by canal and also use of kayaks were a fun activity. We enjoyed a nice relaxing holiday weekend stay. Definitely would come back and stay again.

Weekend Trip to Jewel’s Sink

We loved camping here! We chose to tent camp and it wasn’t bad. We saw deer passing through the land and loved swimming in the sink. It was an amazing experience for us.

1 night at Paradise Lake Rousseau ,Fl

David is amazing and so hospitable! His friend took us out on his pontoon boat, and went to his house to bring us pans to help us cook. The campsite has such beautiful views of the lake and a dock to fish anytime you want. If you have a kayak or some way to explore the lake definitely book this spot, even if you don’t you can rent from david for $10!! Worth every cent.

Weekend Trip to Manatee Delight RV Camp Site

Weekend Trip to Neal’s Nest

Nice quiet country camping spot. Great area for star gazing and very convenient to shopping. We loved how close it was to Cedar Key and enjoyed driving down there for dinner. Would definitely stay here again.

Weekend Trip to Neal’s Nest

Great stay. Beautiful property and solid amenities. Great price too.

Weekend Trip to Manatee Landing Retreat

We booked the RV spot at Manatee Landing Retreat for Mother’s Day weekend, and even though the weather was mostly rainy and cloudy, it didn’t rain on our parade! In fact, having the place mostly to ourselves made it feel like our own private oasis. The tiki hut was a total game-changer—giving us shelter when the rain did come through, and a cozy place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. When the sun peeked out, we made the most of it with kayaking, bouncing on the trampoline, and exploring the beautiful area with our dogs, who absolutely loved it. Even with the clouds, the peaceful vibe and thoughtful amenities made it a weekend to remember. We can’t wait to come back—hopefully with a little more sunshine next time

Weekend Trip to Pure Paradise Lebanon station

This place is awesome! Lots of area to choose where to camp. Place would be great for a group/family. Our dog had a blast as well. Close to crystal river and the springs.

Weekend Trip to Homosassa Springs RV Site

Fabulous weekend! The campsite was clean, level, and quiet. The access to the spring head is perfect and such a nice swimming hole just feet from the dock. We look forward to returning.

Weekend Trip to Camp Gilchrist

Quaint little spot for a good price. Would stay there again :)

Bryan Ranch

1 site · Lodging1 acre · Bronson, FL

Imagine the joy of being the only camper on a private, natural pine ranch with 1,337 acres. Come stay in our new, fully equipped RV, complete with full amenities, like hot tub, & hiking access to the entire property. Pets are welcome! We're just 25 mins from Gainesville, 45 mins from Ocala, & 2 hrs from Orlando. Our Ranch was purchased by the Host's grandmother after her first husband was killed in World War 2. She took part of the money given to her by the government and bought the initial tract. The host's father increased the size of the Property tremendously in the 90s and early-2000s, and today it encompasses 1, 337 acres. The Property is an old Spanish land grant, originally owned by the Sanchez Family, which used to be a large cattle family in the State of Florida. Today, under our ownership since the late 40s, the Ranch has never been developed or timbered in any large measure. Original heart pine forests, oak groves, and wetlands pepper the entire tract. The land has remained largely untouched and natural, which is rare, in a state that is rapidly loosing its natural land to development. Our Ranch is more of a natural preserve than a farm, and it is our aim to share it in limited measure with the public.
