The nursery has plenty of trees, and some fields -the large pond is surrounded by cattails and marsh/wetlands and has fish (Bass, Tilapia, Sunfish, Catfish). Several species of wildlife have been seen on the property. We think the property is lovely, and definitely want you to enjoy your camping experience!

Our property is home to all kinds of wildlife, we have cardinals, bluejays, barred owls, herons, swallow-tailed kites, warblers, huge pileated woodpeckers, and if you wander to the water you may see an alligator or manatee depending on the season. Orange River is the river that passes through the highly rated Manatee Park, we have kayaks and paddleboards available for your pleasure at an additional cost. We have typical comfort restaurants such as Cracker Barrel and Waffle house nearby but I would suggest local flavors of Buckingham Farms and Rum Bucket Grill.

Norman was a fantastic host! Everyone on the farm was super friendly and welcoming — we genuinely enjoyed every part of our stay, and we’re already planning to come back. Even the mosquitoes were friendly (no bites at all 😄). The setup was beautiful — fire pit, grill, and what felt like an unlimited supply of firewood. The animals made the experience unforgettable: horses, donkeys, cows, and chickens. Feeding Pumpkin and Dirty Girl (the horses) while Izzy was mooing for attention because she was jealous? Absolutely priceless 😂🥰 The lounge area with Wi-Fi access, plus a bathroom with a sink and shower, made camping feel like hotel-level comfort. Our spot was tucked away and peaceful — it felt like we had our own little hideaway in the world, even just for a short time. Thank you for such an amazing experience! We’ll definitely be back.

We have been there on three separate occasions. Each has been a very pleasant and relaxing experience. We like to Boondock, and if we need air conditioning, we run our generators, but the property is ideal for enjoying nature, long walks, fishing, enjoying the plants, the wildlife, including the two little black pigs that run around lol ….the site is close to everything if you have to leave to go get supplies and come back it’s very easy and convenient to do so Mike is great and has always treated us very well. We look forward to our next visit.

We had an absolutely lovely time while camping here. We stayed at the site next to the dock, and if we hadn’t been fully attacked by a swarm of mosquitoes when we arrived on the first night while trying to set up our tent, and if it wasn’t hotter than hell the next day, I would say it was the perfect camping trip (both things that were out of our control and should not reflect on the land itself). The land itself was lovely, there was a fire pit and portopotties there for cooking and onsite bathrooms. Mike the host was also wonderful, very down to Earth caring guy who made sure we had everything we need, and also gave us some beautiful mangos and firewood from the land to use while were there, so thanks again Mike, your a great host. All in all we had a great time and I would definitely recommend this place for a nice peaceful camping getaway in the Tampa Bay Area. We’ll be back again :-)

Beautiful, lush tropical setting with amazing sunsets (no snakes or gators). The site I had was private and roomy with a fire ring. Primitive camping with every imaginable modern convenience just a few minutes away (Home Depot, Publix, WalMart, fast food, mexican, BBQ, etc. etc.) Host was kind, courteous, accommodating and knowledgeable. I was there to fish and I had my choice between fresh water on the property and excellent salt water ( in shore and out) very nearby. Not only would I go back but I plan to.

We camped in our Ford Transit Van and it got around perfectly there, even in the rain! Mike & Bill’s land was an absolute treat to stay at and we would definitely recommend. He has over 80 mango trees and was kind enough to share some fruit with us, they are remarkably better than the fruit sold in stores. A MUST try!! We stayed at site 3 and it had electricity for our A/C to run which was great in that summer heat. Would love staying here again!

This place was amazing! Mike stopped by and introduced himself and is very passionate about his farm. He allowed us to choose any site as we were the only campers there! Had the entire area to walk around the lake with the dogs off leash and was able to see some of the exotic fruit trees( they sadly weren’t in season) but was a GREAT stay. The only thing I will say is the pictures are a little outdated. The lake is pretty overgrown and there is a few broken down campers on the property but that did not dock off any points at all! Would stay here again !
