Maggie's Musical Farm

Mike & Maggie bought this beautiful property 38 years ago. Their house, The Cracker Shack, is 100 plus years old and is the second generation home of
the Gainer family who settled the Econfina area in the 1820's. It's made of heart pine and the fireplace was carved from the limestone in Econfina Creek.


Three outdoor showers with battery powered shower heads and fresh water filled rain barrel. We also offer heated showers with our immersion tank heater. 

Lakes and Springs Retreat

Welcome to our little rejuvenating heaven. This is what we want to offer you, a 2.5 acres of raw nature where you can relax, rejuvenate and enjoy the best that water and nature have to offer in Northwest Florida. 

You will be staying in a historic 32 ft 1954 New Moon trailer, the exact copy of the one in the movie The Long Long Trailer with Lucille Ball. Nothing less !

And don't forget to bring your kayaks, paddle boards, bikes and hiking shoes as there is a lot to do around here.

Let's start with your accommodation:

THE LONG LONG TRAILER

If you ever wanted to stay in a vintage camper with a history, then this is it. You will be staying in a 32 ft 1954 New Moon trailer. The previous owner bought it in California and claimed it was one of the trailers used in the movie with Lucille Ball  called The Long Long Trailer. We like to believe that we own a piece of American culture. 

The camper has water (cold only), electricity and a split ac unit. It has been partially renovated to keep the original feel and features as much as possible. 

It's an old lady that survived time, so we ask that you take good care of her as well to continue the legacy. 

BATHROOM - TOILET

Inside the camper, there is a small bathroom with a sink, a small tub,  and a toilet but for number ones only. For hot showers and number two's you will have access to a separate shared bathroom with an indoor toilet and a spacious enclosed outdoor shower. (See pictures)

BEDROOM - BEDDING

We just replaced the mattress with a brand new queen size memory foam mattress. So far everybody likes it. We only use cotton sheets for best comfort. There are 2 nightstands on each side of the bed with lamps and cellphone charger plugs. 

The bedroom has its own entrance door and a room divider can provide privacy from the rest of the camper. 

KITCHEN - APPLIANCES

A comfortable kitchen area with a large sink and lots of cabinets. It's equipped with a microwave oven, toaster oven, hot water kettle and a gas stove. We also provide basic cookware, bowls and plates. Basic seasoning (good quality foods, always), paper towels, dish towels, sponges, dish soap. The cherry on the cake is the original 1954 fridge that is still working great.

CLOSET

A 2-door closet with hangers and a shelf and 3 storage compartments above the bed offer plenty of space for your clothing.

CLEANING STUFF

Basic cleaning products and gears are at your disposal inside the camper.  We privilege non harsh chemical products to preserve human, animal and plant well-being. 

OUTDOOR SPACE

In front of the camper you will find your own private area to chill out after a day of leisure in nature. You have a small table and 2 chairs as well as 2 comfortable armchairs. An umbrella is also provided. 

YARD - FIRE PIT 

We are still working on developing the property.  Many parts are still undeveloped but every day we improve something. We have set up a fire pit with some lounge chairs around that you are welcome to enjoy when permitted by county regulations. 

HOT TUB AND LOUNGE AREA

We just finished setting up the hot tub which is now ready to be enjoyed for an extra fee. Since it's an old model, and it is solar heated, you would have to tell us in advance the time you want to use it and we'll set it up at the right temperature for you. We allow one use per day for one hour. 

We have also an area with 2 lounge chairs if you want to soak in the sun during the day. 

PROPERTY ACCESS;

We live in a very rural area that you can only access by a dirt road.  The roads are well maintained and regular 2WD cars are fine. If you come from I-10 / Chipley via 77, count about 3 minutes of dirt road. If you come from CR20, it's about 10 minutes of dirt road. 

SPRING-FED LAKE

Our property is located on the biggest spring-fed lake in Northwest Florida - Porter Lake. We do not have a view of the lake but we are less than 2 minutes away from the boat ramp where you can swim, launch your kayaks/canoes/paddle boards, and of course your motor boat as well.  Many other lakes are very close by, just minutes away. If you like fishing, then you found your perfect haven spot.

GORGEOUS EMERALD SPRINGS

We are just less than 10 minutes away from 5 of the most beautiful cold water springs on the famous Econfina creek.  Each site offers a parking area, picnic settings and easy access to the springs. You can swim there and also launch your own kayaks or rent them on site. 

YOUR NEIGHBORS

We live in a camper on the same property about 20 yards distant from the New Moon trailer. But you will have all the privacy you need. We also have a few full time neighbors around the property, the rest of the lake community are family vacation homes. It means that outside the holidays it is a pretty quiet neighborhood.

Please email us if you need more information.

We hope we'll have the pleasure to welcome you soon.
