Marci's Magical Lakefront Oasis

Beautiful spot overlooking Lake Weir in The Ocala National Forest.  

Watch the otters play and count the many different birds that make this lake their home. Treat yourself to

incredible sunsets every night as the sun disappears into the water and enjoy the awesome reflection of the moon as it sets on the lake. 

(Check the moonrise/moonset tables to see if there is a visible moon during your intended stay - it really is an incredible sight). 

We have an amazing outdoor shower, with hot and cold running water, overlooking the lake. 

The extra large soaking bathtub is available for your use for $20 per stay if there are not other campers at the time due to us only having one bathroom available. Great for relaxing, bathing kids, or a very romantic evening.

Canoe, stand up paddle board and kayak available for your use at no charge.

You can paddle to nearby Gator Joe's which is an awesome spot on the lake for great food, drinks, and live music. 

Electric and water hookup (garden hose) both sites. 

RV 30 amp electric hookup, as well as regular 15 amp electric hookup on hilltop site.

Many trees on the property makes it tricky for large vehicles to maneuver, therefor we have a limit of 25 feet including tow vehicle.  

Dockside site has 15 amp hookup. We do have an adapter to connect to 30 amp hookup. It is closer to the house and bathroom than site 2 and has more shade and easy access to the dock. 

Pontoon boat rentals are available down the road. 

Being on the lake we do have mosquitos but they are mostly an issue at dusk and dawn for about an hour but we are out in nature so insect encounters of all kinds are to be expected.

 If there is a nice breeze, which is often the case, you can enjoy the sunset from the rocker loveseat at the edge of our dock.

We also have citronella torches available for rent.

We also offer a large bundle of firewood for $10. 

Campers MUST check in by 10 pm. We recommend arriving during daylight whenever possible.

It is important you understand that our property is not in the wilderness. We are NOT a commercial campground.

We have a couple of acres in a residential area and there are homes near the campsite. That being said, you will have complete privacy at your campsites as the two sites are on opposite ends of the property and you will not see me at all other than when you check in, unless you desire to do so. 

Both campsites face the lake however, and you may see some fisherman out there from time to time, but I guarantee you will see much more wildlife than people. 

Each site has its own fire pit.

 Our guests love this place because of the lake, the incredible sunsets and moonsets over the lake, and all the incredible wildlife we have here, as you can see from the reviews.

Well behaved pets are welcome off leash as long as they are supervised and don't bother other campers.  They are not allowed on the porches.  Please pick up any mess that is in the path of foot traffic. There is a $20 pet fee per pet per stay. Add it under extras.  Pet sitting is available for an additional charge. 

I'm a professional photographer with 30 years of experience. Please inquire if you are interested in having your portrait made at this incredible location.

We are 20 minutes from world famous Silver Springs, 20 minutes from Ocala Drive-In Movie Theater that usually shows great films for both kids and adults, and 20 minutes from the Santos Trailhead that offers world class biking and hiking paths.

Unfortunately, I cannot do anything about the people that come here that have not read the description, expecting a wilderness campground and choose to leave a negative review based on that but everyone that has read the description has loved it here and many return.

I love watching the summer storms on the lake

Black Horse Resort Ranch Campground

When you are here you are family. 

Hi, I'm Danielle. My Mom, JoAnn, founded Black Horse Ranch in 2017. "You're family here" is something she said all the time to people who came to stay, and it is truly at the heart of our ranch. Black Horse is a place to enjoy nature, camping, campfires, and good company, in a place that feels like home. 

The property is a beautiful campground nestled into a nook of the Ocala National Forest. We are surrounded on 3 sides by forest, and you can ride or hike straight from any of the many trailheads on property!

We offer 30 and 50amp sites, there is a bath house with full bathrooms and laundry, a Community Kitchen you are welcome to use, a screened in Pavilion for meals or hanging out, a POOL! (yes you read that right!) and a Clubhouse with couches, games and all! We have a few rentals (a cabin and RV) and we are working on getting more. We do have wifi on the property, and we also offer golf cart rentals.

If you have horses, you'll love coming to Black Horse. We are surrounded by countless trails through the forest with the trail heads sitting right on property, two barns for horses, many outdoor stalls and paddocks, wash racks, and an extra large riding arena. 

There is world class fishing nearby at the St. John's River and we are right near many beautiful springs - which, if you have never spent time in a natural spring you will absolutely want to check that out! Kayaking, tubing, swimming galore in crystal clear waters. We are a 20 minute drive from the Villages which offers shopping, dining, and activities, as well as 20 minutes to historic Mount Dora which is a beautiful artsy downtown village. We are 1 hour from Daytona & New Smyrna, 1 hour from Orlando (Disney anyone?).

There is plenty to do on the ranch and nearby the ranch. You will have a blast. We'll see you by the campfire!
