Our horse farm is located in one of the most rural areas of Southern New Jersey. This land was once occupied by The Lanape Tribe. The adjacent creek was named after Chief Alloway. Artifacts of Native Americans have been found alongside this brackish water creek. This farm was for many years a dairy farm which was passed on for 3 generations until the late 80's. Our main horse breeds are 5 Arabians followed by 2 Thoroughbreds and 2 miniature ponies. In addition to horses you will see free range rabbits, chickens and beautiful cows. There are many antique shops in this area which tell the rich History of Southern NJ. Cowen mall and Royal Port are my two favorites. Another must see experience (at least once) in the area is The Cowtown Rodeo, one of the first and oldest in the country, only 14 minutes drive. Cool and brand new Brewery opening up soon right across the rd from Cowtown and right next to The best Cowboy outfitter. https://maps.app.goo.gl/TbK3TfJUDk9Tuziv9 Hope you enjoy visiting our forgotten part of NJ and make great memories! Learn more about this land: Relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. Feast your eyes on the luscious green pastures with grazing horses and cows while enjoying the sound of wild life all around you. You might even be lucky and spot a Bald Eagle here on our property. If you get caught on a rainy weekend we offer Plenty of indoor activities inside our large indoor arena. You can sit on the lounge and read, play board games, pool, darts, archery, watch a movie on the big 20" screen etc... PS movie viewing subject to fees and booking 1-2 days in advance. Thank you for your interest and considerations and hope to be hosting your next camping adventure. :)

I’m a dedicated real estate agent and farmer, blending my passion for land, community, and sustainability at Huck and Buck Farm in Smyrna, DE. Our farm is more than a retreat—it’s an experience, offering A-frame cabin, tent and RV stays, with a hands-on Farm Hand Course. We offer fresh, sustainably raised pork, poultry and chicken eggs, along with growing beautiful seasonal flowers and produce. With a focus on outdoor farm adventures, education, and reconnecting with nature, I’m creating a space where families, businesses, and individuals can explore, learn, and grow.

Gunn Island Drop Off. Disconnect. Explore. Where Freedom, Adventure, and Nature Meet. Escape to a private island retreat on Delaware's scenic St. Jones River, just minutes from historic Dover. Accessible only by canoe, kayak, or small boat, Gunn Island offers a rare opportunity to reserve an entire island for your group and leave the noise of everyday life behind. Paddle across calm waters, fish from the shoreline, explore wooded trails, relax beneath towering trees, and watch majestic bald eagles soar overhead. Whether you're seeking adventure, solitude, or quality time with family and friends, Gunn Island delivers an unforgettable outdoor experience. Rich in local history, the island is located in an area connected to the Underground Railroad, where freedom seekers once traveled Delaware's waterways in pursuit of a better life. Today, that same spirit of freedom and exploration remains. When you reserve Gunn Island, you enjoy exclusive access to the entire island. We host only one group at a time, ensuring privacy, tranquility, and a truly immersive outdoor experience. Perfect for camping, kayaking, fishing, birdwatching, family adventures, scout outings, and digital-detox weekends. Most people can say they've gone camping. Very few can say they've spent the weekend on their own private island. Other Things to Note Guests launch from the nearby Lebanon Landing public boat dock, where free public parking is available. Limited kayak and canoe transportation may be available by prior arrangement. Only one group is permitted on the island at a time. Campers under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Guests are responsible for vehicles and personal property left at the public launch area. Leave the shore behind. Drop Off. Disconnect. Explore.
