What a place! We enjoyed every minute of our stay here. Clean sites with fire pits (some with grills too), water and picnic tables. Cows, horses, goats roaming free. Water access for those that’d like to fish! Will definitely come back!

We love camping by the pond! Watching and listening to the wildlife. Having a campfire. Walking distance to the little church and driving distance is short to town. Our hosts are wonderful people and we will definitely be back 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.

Wes and Tanya have a very unique spot for camping. We overlook a pond and some wildlife here. We’ve come two years in a row so far and I know we will be back again. They are great people to deal with and have been very welcoming and accommodating.

Site 420 was perfect for us! Dog friendly, private, enjoyed the wildlife next to the pond and was conveniently located for our needs. We were thankful that Tanya was able to be very accommodating with our last minute changes and needs. Highly recommended!! Two thumbs up and would stay here again in the future if in the area.

Tons of shore to fish and explore. Awesome to see all the animals roam freely throughout the campsite and the restrooms were the best I’ve seen for a campground. Will be back but next time I’ll be getting food to feed the goats and longhorns!

Camped with a small 5th wheel, site 420. It was absolutely lovely. We were visiting our son’s family and had our granchildren to camp one day as well. Tanya and Wes were great in making sure we got there and situated. They had a lot of amenities including fire rings and wood. The sounds of the animals at night over the pond was really nice as well. We had 3 dogs with us and put up our fence for camp with no problems. The plants and quaint yard art was very enjoyable.

We had such an amazing experience here. From arriving and seeing the adorable animals and scenery, greeted so friendly, and setting up camp at such a beautiful spot on the water. The place is kept up well and offers so many cool experiences with the trails you can walk on, water and the goats and cows you can feed and interact with. Such a unique experience even just staying for a night was wonderful. Will definitely be returning. Highly recommend! So much fun

Tent camping was fantastic. My two boys loved being right on the water and that the goats and longhorns walk right up to the tent. Clean showers and bathrooms, friendly staff, and small camp store stocked with camp essentials. Will definitely return in the future

Host was a great communicator and very accommodating. Plenty of space on the property so you felt like you were in your own private spot. Lake was beautiful. We had a wonderful time. Would definitely come back if in the area.

Where to go
Charles H. Bronson State Forest
Drive east of Winter Park, toward the Atlantic Ocean. Before you hit the shores, you’ll reach Charles H. Bronson State Forest. You can hike, fish, and ride horses all throughout the park, where trails range in both difficulty and ecosystem. When you’re ready to turn in for the night, head to your backcountry campsite—but not before exploring St. Johns River.
Around The Lakes
Calling all naturalists. In the opposite direction, the wetlands around Lake Apopka harbor local wildlife, flowers, and plants. To see even more of the natural landscape, stop at Lake Apopka North Shore and explore the marshes and their bountiful habitats. If that’s still not enough of a freshwater fix, check-in to a campsite further north to experience the neighboring lakes.
Rock Springs Run State Reserve
Open year-round, Rock Springs Run State Reserve lets you choose your own adventure. Everyone from mountain bikers to bird watchers can find the perfect campsite, not far from Winter Park. You can canoe over the Wekiva River to reach your backcountry campsite. Or, you can horse around—and camp with a horse near Wekiwa Springs State Park. If you’d rather camp at a traditional campground, you can alternatively book classic campsites with water and electric hookups, grills, and picnic tables.
When to go
Don’t let the name fool you; Winter Park is all about warm-weather activities, which happen year round. Plan your camping trip around your preferences. Summer in Central Florida can feel unbearably hot, so if you want long hikes on difficult trails, come when the sun is at its most bearable. Winter in Winter Park may bring crowds—plan accordingly so that your only surprise is nature’s beauty.
