Don't stay in the middle of another loud, packed campground. Enjoy the peace and quiet that only comes from staying in a quiet rural setting with absolutely NO other campers onsite. At Koblasz Farms, the value is in the privacy. You get the property to yourself, guaranteed.
Walk with the animals. Talk with the animals. Koblasz Farms is one of the few farms remaining in Seminole County, and the only breeder of registered Scottish Highland Cattle. These beautiful girls are part of the oldest registered breed of cattle in the world. They will take your breath away as they mingle in your surrounding pastures. If you are lucky, you may even see one born. Few things in life are cuter than Scottish Highland calves, unless you ask the mini-donkeys or the goats that will do their best to convince you otherwise. Feeding experiences available.
And wildlife abounds. You can expect to see deer, wild turkeys, eagles, hawks, cormorants, cranes, turtles, and other wildlife.
We are conveniently located 40 minutes from Disney, an hour from Daytona Beach, 50 minutes from New Smyrna Beach, and 20 minutes from downtown Orlando. We are also minutes away from parks for hiking, picnicing, kayaking and canoeing on the Little Wekiva River including the Wekiva River State Park, Katie's Landing, and Wekiva Landing.

Idlewild Lodge and RV Park is located on the spring-fed waters of Lake Panasoffkee and built on 3 acres with 10 cabins and 10 RV pads. While peaceful and quaint, Idlewild offers all the comforts of home accompanied with plentiful amenities. Positioned as a boutique lodge, groups may find it ideal to host private events and families will find the amenities to be entertaining while also serving as a unique, but truly “Floridian,” nature experience. Located on the western perimeter of Lake Panasoffkee, Idlewild sits across a 9,911 acre state park preserving Lake Panasoffkee's vast floodplain forest, natural springs, pine flat-woods, freshwater marshes and oak scrub forest.
Recognizing the beauty Lake Pan has to offer, the current owners revitalized Idlewild in 2022 welcoming residents and tourists alike to enjoy the natural beauty and fishing opportunities. In addition to cabin renovations and paved RV sites, Idlewild now features premium amenities including pontoon boat rentals, bait and tackle, a boat launch, boat slips, vending, recreational area, laundry machines, an on-site café, pool-side cabanas, and the most spectacular views of Lake Pan while sitting around the gas-fired fire pit.

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 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.

5.2mi from Winter Garden · 2 sites · Tents, Lodging
Welcome to Wildlings Farm + Folk, our lakefront farmstead retreat in Central Florida, where wide-open space, fresh air, and simple farm life create a peaceful escape—just outside everyday conveniences. Set on 3 scenic acres directly on the lake, our property offers a rare blend of nature, recreation, and accessibility, making it ideal for camping, glamping, family getaways, and nature retreats.
Wake up to blue skies, birdsong, and grazing goats, then spend the day paddleboarding, kayaking, or fishing from the lake. As the sun sets, enjoy cotton-candy skies, crackling firepit evenings, and starry nights that feel far from the hustle—yet you’re only minutes from Publix, Target, restaurants, and the Florida Turnpike, and about 30 minutes from Walt Disney World.
The land features fenced pastures, a rustic barn, and open grassy areas where kids can roam, climb trees, swing, or relax in hammocks. Our friendly goats and ducks are part of daily farm life and add to the charm and connection many guests seek when escaping the city. Portions of the property are thoughtfully maintained, while other areas are intentionally left natural for preservation, wildlife, and exploration.
This is a place to slow down—whether you’re sipping coffee by the water, watching animals wander at golden hour, or enjoying quiet moments surrounded by trees and lake views. While we live on the property, guests have designated areas to explore and enjoy, and we’re always respectful of your space.
Perfect for those seeking a nature escape near Disney, a lakefront camping experience, or a family-friendly farm stay that balances adventure, relaxation, and convenience.

Idlewild Lodge and RV Park is located on the spring-fed waters of Lake Panasoffkee and built on 3 acres with 10 cabins and 10 RV pads. While peaceful and quaint, Idlewild offers all the comforts of home accompanied with plentiful amenities. Positioned as a boutique lodge, groups may find it ideal to host private events and families will find the amenities to be entertaining while also serving as a unique, but truly “Floridian,” nature experience. Located on the western perimeter of Lake Panasoffkee, Idlewild sits across a 9,911 acre state park preserving Lake Panasoffkee's vast floodplain forest, natural springs, pine flat-woods, freshwater marshes and oak scrub forest.
Recognizing the beauty Lake Pan has to offer, the current owners revitalized Idlewild in 2022 welcoming residents and tourists alike to enjoy the natural beauty and fishing opportunities. In addition to cabin renovations and paved RV sites, Idlewild now features premium amenities including pontoon boat rentals, bait and tackle, a boat launch, boat slips, vending, recreational area, laundry machines, an on-site café, pool-side cabanas, and the most spectacular views of Lake Pan while sitting around the gas-fired fire pit. Idlewild is also host to Swamp Fever Airboat Adventures. Swamp Fever guests can sign up for the interactive alligator experience and ride an airboat deep into the shallow waters of Lake Pan's forest where snakes, turtles, cranes, and gators are aplenty.

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 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.

Welcome to Lady Winona's camp, a peaceful retreat nestled on two acres of scenic beauty in west Volusia County, just a short drive from Daytona Beach. Situated on a beautiful spring-fed lake, our camp offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.
Please note that our camp is currently in the early stages of development, so there are no bathroom facilities, electricity, or running water available on-site. However, if you're self-contained and seeking a rustic camping experience, this little slice of paradise is the perfect destination.
For a low rate, you can enjoy the serene surroundings and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of our lakefront property. Take advantage of our canoe and rowboat to explore the tranquil waters, or simply relax and unwind on the shore. If you like to fish, there is the lake. Bring your own bait.
Nearby, the charming town of Barberville is just three miles away, offering amenities and attractions for your convenience. And if you're feeling active, bring along your badminton equipment for a friendly game on our spacious grounds.
Please be mindful of our peaceful atmosphere and respectful of our neighbors, who are located a comfortable distance away. Noise complaints are not welcome here, as we strive to maintain a quiet and serene environment for all guests to enjoy.
While we continue to improve and expand our amenities, we invite you to experience the tranquility of Lady Winona's camp and create memories that will last a lifetime. DeLeon Springs state park is only a couple of miles away. They have a very unique breakfast there. Check it out while you are here.

Wildlings Farm + Folk
20. Wildlings Farm + Folk
5.2mi from Winter Garden · 2 sites · Tents, Lodging
Welcome to Wildlings Farm + Folk, our lakefront farmstead retreat in Central Florida, where wide-open space, fresh air, and simple farm life create a peaceful escape—just outside everyday conveniences. Set on 3 scenic acres directly on the lake, our property offers a rare blend of nature, recreation, and accessibility, making it ideal for camping, glamping, family getaways, and nature retreats.
Wake up to blue skies, birdsong, and grazing goats, then spend the day paddleboarding, kayaking, or fishing from the lake. As the sun sets, enjoy cotton-candy skies, crackling firepit evenings, and starry nights that feel far from the hustle—yet you’re only minutes from Publix, Target, restaurants, and the Florida Turnpike, and about 30 minutes from Walt Disney World.
The land features fenced pastures, a rustic barn, and open grassy areas where kids can roam, climb trees, swing, or relax in hammocks. Our friendly goats and ducks are part of daily farm life and add to the charm and connection many guests seek when escaping the city. Portions of the property are thoughtfully maintained, while other areas are intentionally left natural for preservation, wildlife, and exploration.
This is a place to slow down—whether you’re sipping coffee by the water, watching animals wander at golden hour, or enjoying quiet moments surrounded by trees and lake views. While we live on the property, guests have designated areas to explore and enjoy, and we’re always respectful of your space.
Perfect for those seeking a nature escape near Disney, a lakefront camping experience, or a family-friendly farm stay that balances adventure, relaxation, and convenience.

Very beautiful private spots. Shady with the gorgeous Spanish moss trees. We stayed for two nights and James was very helpful if we needed anything at all. Our kids who are 6 and 9 had a blast running around the property and checking out all the cool things there were. They got to hang out with Tom the turkey and had the best time! Would come and stay again!

Great place to camp, secluded and quiet. You’re 30 yds from the lake shore. On some days you can watch small seaplanes doing touch and goes on the lake. You’re about 30-35 mins from outskirts of Orlando and 35min from New Smyrna Beach.

I stated this hip camp for 3 days. It's a nice little quiet location off the beaten path. Night time is super dark with no imposing street lights or anything of that nature. The pond was not really visible, but it didn't make any difference to me and for my purposes. It was spacious with plenty of room for me to unload my motorcycle for trips down into Kissimmee. Matt was a true Joy, polite and respectful. If you're looking for a place with no real frills, this is a spot for you. I paid about $20 a day, and I had power. Having power is always a benefit so that I could recharge my external batteries, my battery packs and charge up my refrigerator. I look forward to visiting this hip Camp again in the near future. Five stars
