Welcome to Smokey Acres!
This property has been in my family for decades. My Husband and I were married under the oaks and have had our share of campfires out there.
Down a hidden gravel drive with wetlands on either side you will find a completely fenced in field surrounded by pine, oak, and swamp maple trees. There are two ponds located on the property both stocked with bass, bluegill, and sunfish. The front pond is home to many natural Florida wildlife and is a great location to bird watch.
Located a few miles from Brooksville and the Suncoast Parkway, this quiet and peaceful setting is just 5 minutes from the parking area and trailhead for the Suncoast Trail and 10 miles from the famous Weeki Wachee Springs, where you can spend the day at the local park or float down the river with the manatees.
Withlacoochee State Park and other natural preserves with trail access and kayaking are only a short distance away, and Dames Cave, Homosassa Springs, and Chasawiska Springs are all within a ~20-minute drive as well. Spending a day at the beach is easy with plenty of options along the Nature Coast. We’re also less than an hour from Tampa and Clearwater and two hours from Orlando.
A perfect weekend get-away for anyone looking to “unplug,” Smokey Acres is also a great stop for those passing through the area. We are a close distance to many racing, livestock, boating and fishing events. We have no problem accommodating whatever you’re towing!
Whether you'd like a leisurely day on the river or an adventure in the Gulf, there are plenty of boating options nearby. Be sure to make it back to the property in time to enjoy amazing sunsets that bring peace and tranquility to your experience.
Our neighbors, JG Ranch, offers U- Pick Fruit and Vegetables or a great selection of local harvest at their roadside stand.
This 10-acre property has been in my family for decades. My Husband and I were married under the oaks and have had our share of campfires together out there.
I've recently moved back home with my own family and as much as we enjoy the land for ourselves we'd love to share it. Any profit from hosting campers will help us maintain our sustainable farm that we're hoping to expand onto Smokey Acres. Just in! Our dirt road has been repaved. So no worries about a bumpy drive in!

Welcome to Wildlings Farm + Folk; our lakefront farmstead retreat in Central Florida, where wide-open space, fresh air, and simple farm life create a peaceful escape—just outside everyday conveniences. Set on 3 scenic acres directly on the lake, our property offers a rare blend of nature, recreation, and accessibility, making it ideal for camping, glamping, family getaways, and nature retreats.
Wake up to blue skies, birdsong, and grazing goats, then spend the day paddleboarding, kayaking, or fishing from the lake. As the sun sets, enjoy cotton-candy skies, crackling firepit evenings, and starry nights that feel far from the hustle—yet you’re only minutes from Publix, Target, restaurants, and the Florida Turnpike, and about 30 minutes from Walt Disney World.
The land features fenced pastures, a rustic barn, and open grassy areas where kids can roam, climb trees, swing, or relax in hammocks. Our friendly goats and ducks are part of daily farm life and add to the charm and connection many guests seek when escaping the city. Portions of the property are thoughtfully maintained, while other areas are intentionally left natural for preservation, wildlife, and exploration.
This is a place to slow down—whether you’re sipping coffee by the water, watching animals wander at golden hour, or enjoying quiet moments surrounded by trees and lake views. While we do live on the property, guests have designated areas to explore and enjoy, and we’re always respectful of your space.
Perfect for those seeking a nature escape near Disney, a lakefront camping experience, or a family-friendly farm stay that balances adventure, relaxation, and convenience.

5 J’s Camp is completely private 2.5 acres that backs the Ocala National Forest in Umatilla . This our family getaway, we are a family of 5 and we all have names that start the letter J. There are endless places to put a tent including by the lake, or completely private areas, or by the common areas to be close to a bathroom and kitchen and pavilion, water and electric. The amenities include a pavilion with an outside kitchen, dinning and living area. There is also a ( large shed converted to a ) cook shack with a full size fridge, microwave, electric burners and a toaster oven. There is also a bathroom with a full-size shower/tub, hot water and a toilet. It comes with all of the basics to be comfortable while you camp. Also, you have a good chance of being alone. we usually only book 1 party at a time, Just message me to confirm. The property has enough lighting to completely light up the common area. There is also water and electric all over the property. There is a shooting range right outside of the property that is part of the forest. There is Blue Sink several miles away, it is a spring feed swimming hole that is deep enough for SCUBA. There is horse trails and OHV trails as well. This camp was a hunting camp and still has an huge animal cleaning station on the back side of the property, with water, drainage, power, lighting and all stainless steel sinks and counters. Come to play and explore or come to relax. Our camp is always (slowly)being Improved, you might see work in progress so be aware there may be a consolidated area that looks messy. This is a camp, everything gets dusty, and there are bugs. We keep the yard kept up and do what we can to limit bugs in the common area. I recommend a 4x4 although I don’t own one my self. The roads are usually decent, but the weather has a lot to do with roads in the forest.

Wildlings Farm + Folk

23mi from Leesburg · 2 sites · Tents, Lodging
Welcome to Wildlings Farm + Folk; our lakefront farmstead retreat in Central Florida, where wide-open space, fresh air, and simple farm life create a peaceful escape—just outside everyday conveniences. Set on 3 scenic acres directly on the lake, our property offers a rare blend of nature, recreation, and accessibility, making it ideal for camping, glamping, family getaways, and nature retreats.
Wake up to blue skies, birdsong, and grazing goats, then spend the day paddleboarding, kayaking, or fishing from the lake. As the sun sets, enjoy cotton-candy skies, crackling firepit evenings, and starry nights that feel far from the hustle—yet you’re only minutes from Publix, Target, restaurants, and the Florida Turnpike, and about 30 minutes from Walt Disney World.
The land features fenced pastures, a rustic barn, and open grassy areas where kids can roam, climb trees, swing, or relax in hammocks. Our friendly goats and ducks are part of daily farm life and add to the charm and connection many guests seek when escaping the city. Portions of the property are thoughtfully maintained, while other areas are intentionally left natural for preservation, wildlife, and exploration.
This is a place to slow down—whether you’re sipping coffee by the water, watching animals wander at golden hour, or enjoying quiet moments surrounded by trees and lake views. While we do live on the property, guests have designated areas to explore and enjoy, and we’re always respectful of your space.
Perfect for those seeking a nature escape near Disney, a lakefront camping experience, or a family-friendly farm stay that balances adventure, relaxation, and convenience.

5 J’s Camp is completely private 2.5 acres that backs the Ocala National Forest in Umatilla . This our family getaway, we are a family of 5 and we all have names that start the letter J. There are endless places to put a tent including by the lake, or completely private areas, or by the common areas to be close to a bathroom and kitchen and pavilion, water and electric. The amenities include a pavilion with an outside kitchen, dinning and living area. There is also a ( large shed converted to a ) cook shack with a full size fridge, microwave, electric burners and a toaster oven. There is also a bathroom with a full-size shower/tub, hot water and a toilet. It comes with all of the basics to be comfortable while you camp. Also, you have a good chance of being alone. we usually only book 1 party at a time, Just message me to confirm. The property has enough lighting to completely light up the common area. There is also water and electric all over the property. There is a shooting range right outside of the property that is part of the forest. There is Blue Sink several miles away, it is a spring feed swimming hole that is deep enough for SCUBA. There is horse trails and OHV trails as well. This camp was a hunting camp and still has an huge animal cleaning station on the back side of the property, with water, drainage, power, lighting and all stainless steel sinks and counters. Come to play and explore or come to relax. Our camp is always (slowly)being Improved, you might see work in progress so be aware there may be a consolidated area that looks messy. This is a camp, everything gets dusty, and there are bugs. We keep the yard kept up and do what we can to limit bugs in the common area. I recommend a 4x4 although I don’t own one my self. The roads are usually decent, but the weather has a lot to do with roads in the forest.

Great campsite, not too remote, and great privacy. Bathroom is maintained and restocked with paper and soap. Our campsite had plenty of room and felt safe. No wild animals were nearby, and campsite had its own trash. Despite an ongoing burn ban, we were still able and allowed to grill.

I loved it there! So quiet and peaceful. The camp ground is nostalgic and small. The bathroom and shower could use some help (to be honest), but the running water by the cabin seems to be well-water, cold, and very fresh. A quick well-water shower behind the cabin was refreshing and lovely. Centrally located to lots of area hiking and things to do. Historic Brooksville was adorable and I highly recommend having brunch at the Lazy Maid Creperie, voted #1 restaurant in Brooksville. I would definitely come back to this camp ground and utilize the cabin again. I also liked the primitive camp sites and only a short walk from parking. My entire experience was two thumbs up.

Second time staying here.
I had plans to stay at another state campsite, but three gate code was not working. Luckily, on a moment notice, Smokey Acres was available.
The campsite was clean, quiet, beautiful. Bathroom facilities were decent. Site was level. Slight noise from traffic. No complaints. Its an easy weekend get away.
My wife was able to set up her telescope for some night photography and I got plenty of reading time.
I'm pretty sure a 3rd stay will happen in the next few months.

Lucky U Ranch is WORKING Ranch. I was there with my 14 yr old son on the last 2 days of the year. On Dec 31 st we were taking their tour and a goat gave birth during the tour! We were allowed by Rob to take some mandarins from their tree! Ample space to spread out, clean ,new bathrooms with hot water, tame and friendly approachable animals. Close to other attractions ( springs etc ) Recommend staying at Lucky You, the hosts are superbly friendly.

What an amazing place Rob and Mike created to share with those looking for great camping! Spent New Years at Lucky U Ranch, and it was fantastic! The sites are huge and far apart. Facilities are very well kept. Got some unexpected guests when the horses and mules decided to say hi. You will not find any better hosts, very attentive… met me at the gate and took me to the site, shared about the site and hiking trails on property as well as checked in daily and provided more firewood when I ran out. Happy to have found another place to add to my “visit again” list!

One of the best ranches I’ve ever been to! The land is kept so well and you can tell they are stewards of the land.

We even got a visit from the donkeys! I’ll definitely would love to come back!
