Weekend Trip to Home of Many Miniature Animals

Great secluded campsites very close to Downtown Mt Dora, lots of birds and owls to enjoy!

1 night at Forever Young Farm

Very nice place and friendly hosts. Recomend it. Also great for observing rocket launges or stars.

Weekend Trip to Dirt Road Camp

Exactly as described. Lots of room to set up. Friendly and accommodating host.

2 nights at La Quinta Bonita Homestead

Kelley & Vic were very hospitable to us; we enjoyed the tour of their property, as well as the homemade bread and eggs we were able to purchase from their homestead. They also had great recommendations for us regarding nearby outdoor recreation areas. We thoroughly enjoyed Ravine Gardens State Park and visiting Angels Diner in Palatka. We comfortably fit two adults in the camper, and we’re grateful that the other adult who came with us had an in-car camping set up. It would have been very, very tight had all three of us needed to fit in the camper. We’d recommended no more than two for the camper. Camper did have a neat cooler/fridge inside that was spacious! The outdoor shower was amazing - all three of us absolutely loved it! And the fact that warm water was accessible was a win. The water got up to about 88 degrees or so. The compostable toilet was inside a small tent and cleaned daily. It felt slightly on display just with how close it was to the fire pit, but was convenient and easy to access. The fire pit was the perfect size, and tons of wood was supplied ($10/night). Our favorite part was hanging out around the fire pit during the evenings under the stars. TONS of stars, and beautiful wind blowing through the trees. Lots of fun animal sounds too! If you plan to cook over the fire, be sure to bring your own tools and equipment. All in all, great experience! We’d go again and are looking forward to seeing how Kelley and Vic continue to grow their homestead!

2 nights at Home of Many Miniature Animals

Little bit of our farm life was such a great site! My kids and I had an amazing experience. We camped for two nights and had the entire place to ourselves. The camping area was clean, so was the port-o-potty, and shower. My kids and I got to run around and play kickball. Every morning we were woken up by the cutest farm animals, and greeted by two beautiful pups that joined my kids in playing ball. The owners of the farm are very nice and were quick to respond to all messages. One of the best parts of our entire trip was the farm tour given by Olivia. She was very informative and patient with my inquisitive six-year-old and gave us extra time with Archie, the Highland cow (my kids had to pull me away from him) and all of the goats who my kids fell in love with in fact, I had to promise my kids that we'd come back when the mama goat Addie gave birth to see the kids. I definitely recommend this site and we will be back very soon.

4 nights at Lovely Acres Of East Orlando

Site was great. We would recommend and will probably return. Our son was in a competition at UCF and the location was great! Cristy was a fantastic host. Getting in and out of the gate was a little tight with our 34' travel trailer, but manageable. Google maps gave directions through Parry Lane, thankfully not when we had the trailer attached! Do NOT go Parry Lane. It's a one way road through a trailer park. Two other roads to get there are fine.

Weekend Trip to Home of Many Miniature Animals

You will find some beautiful animals with a family atmosphere and a cool place to relax and think. The camping area is clean and organized. Listening to the sounds of the animals when I woke up was my favorite part during the stay in this place. The man is very nice and cares about asking his guests how they are feeling during their stay.

1 night at Home of Many Miniature Animals

Our stay at Home of Many Miniature Animals was incredible! The highlight was the animal tour with our host, Olivia—she was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about caring for these adorable creatures. She took the time to introduce us to each animal, sharing fun facts and interesting stories that made the experience even more special. The campsite itself was peaceful and well-maintained, making for a relaxing getaway. Waking up to the sounds of nature and being surrounded by friendly miniature animals was truly unique. If you’re an animal lover or just looking for a fun and educational experience, this place is a must-visit! The main reason we camped here was to be close to the Mount Dora Bike Trail for some mountain biking, and this location was perfect for that. After a great day on the trails, coming back to such a peaceful and unique campsite made the trip even better.

1 night at Home of Many Miniature Animals

This campsite is tucked away from the hustle and bustle, providing a nice, shady, and secluded spot that features a fire pit. The friendly hosts create a welcoming environment for all guests, and the adorable farm animals add a charming touch to the overall experience.

1 night at Forever Young Farm

Great space, great communication from host! Would definitely visit again!

3 nights at Forever Young Farm

We enjoyed our peaceful and relaxing stay with our pups at Forever Young Farm. Such a friendly place to visit, the hosts are so kind and welcoming. A great location with a short drive to local attractions, the Beach, and outdoor activities. A great place for a bike ride too. We had plenty of space at our site with electric, a charcoal grill, fipepit, table and chairs, and a cute little palm tree for shade for the dogos. We enjoyed hearing and watching the chickens and turkeys and a cute pig who would come by the fence to say hi to the dogs. We will definitely be staying here again when in the area. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property with us.

7 nights at Turtle Cove Space Coast

Drew & Juliet were so welcoming. Turtle cove is a nice quiet spot worth staying at. HIGHLY recommend!

2 nights at Forever Young Farm

Lovely quiet spot- slept well at night, open space for satellite hookup for remote work, great location for access to space center or Canaveral Seashore! If you are not a morning person, you may be bothered by turkey and rooster crowing early in the morning. It didn’t bother me since I’m an early riser.

Weekend Trip to The Ranch

Must enter trough Tedder lake road not Johnson . Arrive before dark.

Weekend Trip to Home of Many Miniature Animals

Tent camping at the farm was just lovely! I was at one of the dispersed sites with a picnic table and a fire pit. The miniature donkey was absolutely adorable and the portable toilet was nice and clean. I also saw a barred owl hanging out in a tree my first night. This was the perfect home base for kayaking at the nearby springs as it is situated near both Rock Springs and Wekiwa. It’s also extremely close to the little downtown area of Mount Dora.

We offer youth day camps on various dates, pony rides and a tour of our farm animals for an additional fee. Reservations required in advance due to the other activities we have going on. In 2007, we had no idea where this adventure was going to take us. Our small urban farm was sharing our miniature animals with assisted living facilities and Neulife, where we have 3 miniature horses that live on their property. Little by little we have evolved into more of a need to share with the community and help others with the relaxing qualities our farm and animals have to offer, we want to be able to share and better educate with hands on experiences, teach kindness, patience, confidence and help others to be the best they can be. Thank you for your time and if you visit, share a review! Reviews are the best way for us to better ourselves and your experience. Have a great stay!
