Turkey Hollow is a 10-acre farm with pigs, chickens, turkeys, goats, and a sheep who thinks she’s a dog. (All roam the property except the pigs.) All of our critters are rescues and orphans whose original owners could no longer care for them. We’ve worked hard to give them a happy place to live and play. Come join us on a “critter crawl,” where we take the goats, dogs, and sheep for a walk on the trails and feed them their favorite treats. Explore numerous trails winding through our pines and oak trees—perfect for a hayride or a relaxing walk. Gather around the fire pit, with on-site wood available for guests. Play a round of horseshoes or checkers, or simply lounge in one of our hammocks. Kids will love the play zone, complete with a small zip line, tree fort, slide, log cabin, and teepee. Turkey Hollow is also a geographical fun zone: Rainbow Springs State Park is just 15 minutes south of the farm. Two popular cave-diving spots and the World Equestrian Center are both about 12 miles away in Williston, Florida. If you’re craving the coast, Cedar Key and its beaches are only 45 minutes west. Come relax and recharge—arrive as guests and leave as friends. Corey & Peggy Bryan (with Duke & Daisy)

If you were thinking about it, just book it. Had the best time with my family. Joshua answered very quickly when I messaged. I just recommended this to a friend who booked his own stay for his family. The RV was insanely cool, the grill is full size and a perfect addition. Joshua really thought of everything. You only need to bring what you want to cook with. There was a little coffee station, utensils, and pots and pans. The fireplace was a great touch just maybe buy some extra wood and babysit the fire for a little bit, which I didn’t do so it kept going out. Other than that, can’t wait to come back!

Mark and Naree are excellent hosts. Their place is well thought out and cared for. They are very friendly and helpful. I also appreciate how quick they are to respond. I had a last minute change in plans and needed somewhere to stay. They answered my inquiry quickly and I was able to come on over, and book the camper. I felt at ease there and safe. I highly recommend this place. I would definitely stay there again.

Decided to book this last minute as a way to get away from the hustle and bustle of life. This place was clean, quiet, and in a great location. 5 minutes from rainbow river spring head. About 10-15 minutes from tubing from rainbow river state park. And about 15 mins from KP hole. Walmart is about 10-15 minutes away as well as several food places. The lot was quiet, has a fire pit and overall a nice quiet area. Def recommend.

Host was great and very hospitable. The RV is great, wife and I stayed there 3 nights and our kids joined us for the 4th. Better for couples than whole families but it can work for a night or two. Host was quick to provide anything we needed, if we come back to FL might stay here again, easy access to lots of restaurants and other attractions in the area.

Weekend Trip to End of the Rainbow Resort

End of the Rainbow campsites are very special, right on the water, and surrounded by gorgeous cypress trees. A heron often hunted at the waters edge and ibis regularly flew thru the camp. Donald was great with our last minute booking and even lent us his person PFD's (lifejackets) to expedite us getting on the water.

This spot was so special! We were able to camp right on the water where the 2 rivers come together and it was so peaceful and private. Primitive with Porta John’s was just fine with us. It was great to enjoy the rivers and paddle back to camp. The wildlife and people/boat watching was great too. Host Donald was very kind and welcoming as well. Worth every penny, we will be back!

My wife and I booked a little quick getaway to check out rainbow river springs, it was epic and so was our stay, Naree and her husband were so welcoming, the camper was immaculate and the outdoor setup was a very nice touch. We will definitely be back. If you’re in the fence of booking here, do it!
