Camp Wild Fern

4 sites · RVs, Tents6 acres · Mims, FL
Hey guys! As avid campers and adventure seekers ourselves, we know how important safe (and cost effective) space for a night or two is. That’s why we decided to offer a corner of our own rural paradise - amongst the mature oaks, blooming magnolias and palms. We have just under 7 acres with plenty of yard to share. It’s pretty basic space without a lot of amenities (yet), but we know you’d love it here. Our pricing reflects our humble start and we invite you to park your RV, pop open your tent and make yourself at home. A few things you can expect… ~Wherever you decide to set up camp, we will provide a picnic table, trash can and fire pit with wood. ~We are super pet friendly so bring your furry family members and we will ensure they’re safe and comfortable as well. ~There is access to water from the main house. ~ Electricity can be provided depending on how close you set up to the house. WiFi as well. ~ We do have a chicken coop so you can expect to hear them throughout the day. ~ We are on a dead end road in a rural residential area. Super quiet! ~ Pit potty in a super cute Outhouse. ~ If you stay during the month of March, you will adore our lightening bugs! ~ Tons of mature trees so bring your hammocks. ~ We are on site and available to you when needed. Forgot bug spray or need a band-aid? We got you! Need a board game, yard game or puzzle? We got those too! ~ Want total privacy? That’s ok too! Watch us grow and come back as our offerings grow too. This is our start, but it’s going to be great!

Home of Many Miniature Animals

7 sites · RVs, Tents5 acres · Mount Dora, FL
Our farm is off the beaten path surrounded by mossy oaks and lots of shade. If you are having a rough week, load up and relax on our working farm filled with miniature horses and numerous other adorable miniature animals that will be sure to put a smile on your face. Pack your camping gear, tents, vans or RVs and find peace away from the traffic and everyday stress. There is plenty of nature and you can take a long stroll to clear your head. Mount Dora is across the main street less than 5 minutes away. Our antique town is an amazing experience to explore with lots of history and complete with quaint shops and restaurants, boating and lots of things to do. Rennigers Antique Center is located right up the street (less than 5 minutes away) for some great picking. We are conveniently close to the Central Florida Attractions and the beach on both east and west coasts within an hour drivep. A few Campers favorite places to visit are Mount Dora Bike Trail - 2.6 miles, Kelly Park - 11 miles and Kings Landing 12 miles from farm. 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!

RV camping near Sanford guide

Overview

Halfway between the waves of Daytona Beach to the north and Orlando’s theme parks to the south, Sanford is decidedly quieter and more laid back by comparison. Escape into nature through a network of hiking, biking, and horseback riding trails, or travel alongside lush riverbanks at Blue Spring State Park to spot Florida’s iconic manatees. Snorkeling and scuba diving in the warm Florida waters are more great ways to spend a day, as is renting a canoe or kayak to paddle among crystal-clear emerald springs at Wekiwa Springs State Park. Group primitive campsites, RV camping with full hookups, and stylish glamping sites are all available near Sanford.

Where to go

Wekiwa Springs State Park

Take time to explore over 40 miles of nature trails in Wekiwa Springs State Park by hiking, biking, or even horseback riding among the oak trees and spotting wildlife along the banks of Rock Springs Run and the Wekiwa River. Look for everything from belted kingfishers and ospreys to river otters and aquatic turtles. Swimming, canoeing, and kayaking the emerald springs are other popular activities. To really get away from it all, consider setting up at a primitive campsite in one of the more remote areas.

Blue Spring State Park

Over 700 West Indian manatees flood Blue Spring State Park every winter thanks to ongoing protection efforts. Here, limestone aquifers bubble up to feed the St. Johns River and create a warm and comfortable environment for the grazing sea cows. Observe the creatures in their natural habitat from boardwalks and observation decks, then dive into the water for summer snorkeling, scuba diving, and inner tubing. Hipcampers can select from a full range of camping options including primitive tent campsites, cabins, and RV sites with full hookups, plus amenities like fire rings and picnic tables.

Lake Monroe Park

Campers don’t need to go far from Sanford to discover a little slice of nature’s sanctuary. Set on the shores of the lake for which it is named, Lake Monroe Park is both right in the heart of town and miles away from the everyday. With both tent and RV camping options, there’s easy access to miles of biking trails, including the scenic Sanford RiverWalk running along the lakeshore. The lake itself offers attractive largemouth bass fishing year-round, as well as the chance to catch black crappies, bluegill, and massive channel catfish. If the fish elude your lure, historic Sanford’s local restaurants are mere minutes away.

When to go

Florida summers can be very hot and humid, not to mention that it’s also hurricane season. The mosquitoes can be a nuisance, as well. The rest of the year may be a more comfortable choice for camping near Sanford. Spring weather is especially pleasant, adorning park areas with wildflower displays. For manatee viewing, high season runs from November to April, peaking between December and February. Check with local parks and campgrounds for seasonal closures or reduced hours, as water activities may be restricted during manatee season.
