Stories from the community

7 nights at North Shore Relic Ranch

Gorgeous grounds & very peaceful yet close to everything you need!

1 night at North Shore Relic Ranch

The site was beautiful and very well kept with chairs, fire pit, and lights. The host was very kind and very flexible with us as we arrived late at night and he still met us to guide us to our site. The relics are pretty neat to go see as well as the cows. One thing to note is the mosquitoes are absolutely ruthless out there because it’s in swampy area, so bring loads of strong bug spray.

Weekend Trip to Cozy Freedom at Earthperks Farm

What a treasure to find! The #2 tent spot is secluded enough for complete privacy, but close enough to the main house that I felt safe, camping alone as a woman. All the ammenities are there, water and standard 120v electric at the site, picnic table, fire pit and well-maintained grounds. It's approx. a 25 min drive to the Speedway and downtown. This is now where I will stay every tine I visit Daytona. I attended Jeep week. When I arrived, I knew my initial accomodations weren't going to work for me, I needed a quiet spot to wind down at night. I reached out and Mindy responded right away, answered all of my questions and I was booked within 20 mins. She even sent me a detailed map and instructions on how to find my spot, the showers and the kitchen. As an Airbnb host of several units myself, my expectations can be high. This is a hidden gem so near to downtown.

Weekend Trip to Forever Young Farm

We enjoyed staying there! Lots of space for us and our dogs and a cute area with chairs, grill and a fireplace.

Weekend Trip to Tangerine Hideaway

I think we saw 8 different kinds of butterflies. It was so relaxing to just watch them. The site had a brand new picnic table and fire ring. There are trees all around every site so you have some privacy from neighbors. Really enjoyed our stay.

Weekend Trip to North Shore Relic Ranch tee pee

Amazing property and amazing campsites! Was perfect distance to rock springs and other springs in the area and the host was on top of everything and very friendly. Definitely recommend to anyone going to the area!

Weekend Trip to The Promised Land

We enjoyed our brief stay at the Promise. Just what we were looking for, a quiet place to stop for a day. With the recent dry weather the sand in the wooded area was quite loose though we had no issues getting in and out. I would advise a quick recon on foot before you go in mostly to confirm a route through the woods. There are a couple of options and it’s helpful to know which one works for you. Our stay was brief but enjoyable. Very quiet and heavily shaded site with options to stay in the field before the woods if desired. The shade was welcomed and cut the heat considerably compared to the field. We would definitely stay again when we are in the area.

4 nights at Roots ReTREEt in Old Florida

We loved staying at Jay's. He was very welcoming and went out of his way to help us out. The description is exactly as listed. He has a couple of options for set up locations. His property has the feeling of being remote. However, you are only a few minutes away from grocery and some other stores and restaurants. It is a short drive to the beach or inland water way/Indian River. Jay was available and easy to get in contact with. He helped us with many questions about the area and where to go. We were even able to catch two rocket launches just from the back yard. If you want a quieter Florida experience give Jay's place a visit. Next time we are in the area or passing through, this will be our stay of choice.

1 night at Camp Shiloh

Quiet and peaceful. Hosts are awesome! If you want a quiet secluded place to unwind this is it. A home away from home for our RV life. We will be back!

Weekend Trip to Tangerine Hideaway

Nice people and clean environment! Would stay again.

Weekend Trip to Wilderness Shores Ranch_Campground!

I stayed at the Shoreline Tent Camping area at Wilderness Shores Ranch in Lakeland, FL for the weekend. The property itself is beautiful—right on the lake with stunning views and surrounded by nature. One of the best parts was the chance to interact with the friendly animals on the ranch, including long-horned cows, goats, and horses. The staff were also very welcoming and helpful throughout my stay. However, there were a few downsides worth noting. Trains pass by very frequently at night—about once an hour—and they’re loud enough to wake you up. On top of that, there’s an active gun range nearby that was really noisy during the day, especially on the weekend. The campsites are quite close together, so there’s not much privacy. It also looked like the sites weren’t cleaned between campers—there was leftover firewood in the pit and some general debris around. Overall, it’s a great place if you’re looking for a rustic, nature-connected experience and don’t mind the noise. Just go in knowing what to expect.

Weekend Trip to North Shore Relic Ranch

Cute place, great staff. Beware of the mosquitos in Florida in the summer :) Natrapel (Picaridin) kept them off at least. I also used a Thermacell to keep them away.

Weekend Trip to Camp Shiloh

Beautiful and quiet. Incredible hosts! We will definitely be back to enjoy their space! Their other site is awesome as well. We felt safe and secure in their care!

Weekend Trip to Camp Shiloh

Property is very well maintained. We rarely saw a mosquito. It was probably one of the nicest out houses. We enjoyed our time at this camp. And even loved the breeze that came through with a coffee in the morning. It was nice!

Weekend Trip to Camp Shiloh

This was an enjoyable stay! The land was nice with a mix of mature trees and palms for a nice shade. Lot 1 has solar lights at night which I enjoyed in the evenings. The privy (bathroom) was charming and something I hadn’t experienced before but very clean. The glass house on the other lot was super adorable and I will return to stay there! :) My favorite part was the host, she was sweet and friendly and has an understandable pride in her humble homestead. Both hosts are attentive and professional. I’ll be back. 😊

1 night at Camp Shiloh

Nice quite portion of the owners property. Provided a nice wooden fenced area with low illumination lights. Would recommend this to anyone traveling through Florida near Kennedy Space Center.

7 nights at 20 Acres Pond at Green Swamp

Beautiful place, real close to the wildlife. Had no issues at all, I loved every second of it! Host really respectful and was a phone call or text away to answer any questions I had. Big shoutout to Frankie, he is a great guy and very helpful. He is another camper who staying there and an awesome guy! I had a wonderful time and can’t wait to come back again!

2 nights at North Shore Relic Ranch

Great place to relax and adventure! The sites offer so much privacy, far apart and owner kept most trees. Buggy, I'd highly recommend DEET. We will definitely be coming back, everything was perfect. Some awfully friendly cows, too!

1 night at Cozy Freedom at Earthperks Farm

It was away from city yet close to main stores. The host was great and explained the farm. The kids even saw an armadillo running around.

Weekend Trip to Camp Mack

Nice spacious lots. Clubhouse with swimming pool. You can bring your golf cart or side by side. They have airboat rides, restaurant and store with reasonable prices, ice $3.

Camp Shiloh

2 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents3 acres · Oak Hill, FL

Shiloh was the name of an early Florida town that was once located just down the road from our property. It was populated by hardy, adventurous folks who made a way for themselves and their families by clearing a spot along the lagoon, building a home and forging a life in a new location. But Shiloh is now lost, literally removed from the maps. It no longer exists. When NASA needed a perimeter zone for the newly emerging space program in the 1950s, the federal government purchased large swaths of land between Oak Hill and Titusville, FL. Residents were bought out and forced to move. Houses were relocated or demolished. Shiloh disappeared into history while the space-age pushed forward into the future. However... some foundations still can be found in the woods not far away, if you know where to look. There are even cemeteries that remain, whispering the names of individuals and families. As a tribute to those early adventurers, we have named our place Camp Shiloh. We honor the past, we respect the wild Florida that surrounds us, and we celebrate the future as we watch rocket launches from our porch. You are welcome to stay on the property while you explore the local communities of New Smyrna and Titusville, relax at beautiful Canaveral National Seashore, attend races in Daytona, visit amusement parks in Orlando... or whatever! It’s up to you. We are a peaceful, safe location from which you can stage your Florida adventure. Come on by. We look forward to hosting you! Learn more about this land: Park your van/small RV or pitch your tent on our rural homestead conveniently located 1000 ft off of US Hwy 1. Nearest I-95 exit is 3 miles away. Watch rocket launches, visit nearby beaches, attend NASCAR races, see local communities, relax at Canaveral National Seashore, birdwatch at Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, fish Mosquito Lagoon, or visit the amusement parks of Orlando, we are a safe and quiet location from which to stage your adventures. We have two campsites. Site 1 is a nice level, grassy campsite for tent or RV, complete with a fire ring, picnic table, and firewood. Site 2 is the Glamping Greenhouse!

We're proud of our oasis and thrilled to share it with folks that appreciate protected land as much as we do.

It has lots of seating, plenty of places to relax, a grill and outdoor sink for cooking, and a gas fireplace to enjoy the scenery at night.

There is a small bathroom building with toilet, sink, and shower. No standard outlet (110v) power access other than a few outlets in the bathroom and utility room (available for phone charging if needed, but nothing high-amperage). We do have numerous water spigots sprinkled throughout the property (unfiltered well water). There's a spot for a campfire near the bathroom building and the campsite. There will be a patio table set and chairs, two plastic Adirondack Chairs near the water along with an old Jon Boat with paddles you're welcome to take out to explore the water with.

Bear Knot

1 site · RV, Tent6 acres · Orlando, FL

Currently the property is raw land. With very little touch of man. It is in an old country neighborhood that touches a newer neighborhood with plenty of dining choices. There is a natural unkept pond with mucky dark water that has Lilly pads. There are parts of the Econ river that rise and lower with the seasons. There may or may not be chickens running the property. There are fallen trees and overgrown areas. There are some internal fences with gates we are working to remove or restructure. There is parking for off grid rvs. No amenities are offered currently. We behaved leashed dogs are allowed.

The amenities include a pavilion with an outside kitchen, dinning and living area. There is also a ( large shed converted to a ) cook shack with a full size fridge, microwave, electric burners and a toaster oven. There is also a bathroom with a full-size shower/tub, hot water and a toilet. It comes with all of the basics to be comfortable while you camp. Also, you have a good chance of being alone. we usually only book 1 party at a time, Just message me to confirm. The property has enough lighting to completely light up the common area. There is also water and electric all over the property. There is a shooting range right outside of the property that is part of the forest. There is Blue Sink several miles away, it is a spring feed swimming hole that is deep enough for SCUBA. There is horse trails and OHV trails as well. This camp was a hunting camp and still has an huge animal cleaning station on the back side of the property, with water, drainage, power, lighting and all stainless steel sinks and counters. Come to play and explore or come to relax. Our camp is always (slowly)being Improved, you might see work in progress so be aware there may be a consolidated area that looks messy. This is a camp, everything gets dusty, and there are bugs. We keep the yard kept up and do what we can to limit bugs in the common area. I recommend a 4x4 although I don’t own one my self. The roads are usually decent, but the weather has a lot to do with roads in the forest.
