3 nights at Flying Frog Ranch

Vito is one of the best hosts I've come across, very nice and responsive. Beautiful secluded property. I would recommend.

This was a charming location on a quiet street with the sounds of peacocks and other birds. Vito was an attentive and helpful host.

14 nights at Flying Frog Ranch

My wife, cat and I stayed at Vito's for 6 weeks! while working remotely and exploring the area. We lived out of our travel trailer in Vito's larger RV site and shared the property with the occasional neighbor Hipcamper. This is a great spot for a longer-term stay! Mind you, while we had 50 amp power, we shared the water supply (hose was long enough to reach our trailer), and did not have a sewage hookup. Vito kinda recommended a local pump out service for our tanks. We only ended up using them a couple of times as we took the camper down to the keys for a long weekend amidst our stay. The property is beautiful, quiet and peaceful. A perfect place to stay, away from the city, but close enough to all the conveniences and easy to take day trips or weekend adventures to beaches like Jupiter, Palm Beach, Miami and even the keys. Vito was an excellent host. Thank you so much!

What a great, peaceful spot! We stayed 6 weeks in our camper trailer, working full-time (great WiFi and cell service) and exploring on the nights and weekends. The neighborhood is quite and great to walk around. Loved the peacocks roaming through camp!

Tessa is a great host who goes above and beyond to ensure the comfort of her guests! The location is great for access to the Keys, Miami, and the Everglades.

My husband & I spent a week at Flying Frog Ranch & it was absolutely amazing. It was very quiet & serene. The views were beautiful as they have a pond with chairs to sit by. Vito & Isabella were very attentive & accommodating to all our needs & were always super responsive. Definitely will be returning in the future.

7 nights at Gateway to Paradise

Space was as described and expected. Tessa was so kind, understanding, and considerate. My family had a wonderful stay, the van was our place of solace during a rough vacation.
