This property is called relic ranch because we have actually found a ton of old relics. the campground is under an ancient canopy of oaks. so youll always have shade. the center of the property is unique to say the least but the campground is nature at its finest. there is a 2.6 mile nature trail across from the campground to explore. also there is a boat ramp for fishing about 1/8 mile away. you are welcome to roam over most of the 80 acres. We have goats, cows and chickens as well. All super friendly.Welcome Y'all!!  Here at North Shore Relic Ranch,  we are minutes from wekiva springs and rock springs. Plus this is home to our 11 cool cows 5 adult goats 4 baby's and about 50 crazy chickens, which you can interact with. A little bit of something for everyone.   We have some interesting vehicles on the property to check out. There are also miles of marked nature trails next to the camp sites. Lake Apopka and canals to kayak on, are only 800 feet away, and there is a 15 mile free nature drive just minutes away. Or just relax and camp/explore! (Tents available for rent, we also have 2 horse stalls for rent, so you can bring your horse to ride the trails)There are different areas around the property where you can camp. A very laid back, chill vibe. Campsite areas are quite vast, so privacy should be of no concern! Fishing is allowed on our property and next door there are state owned hiking trails and canals to fish & kayak on. Plus a boat ramp to launch with restrooms. Campers are asked not to enter/loiter around the 2 private residences, please respect privacy. (but have no concern, there is absolutely plenty of room to wander the camp area and explore!!) There is lots of wildlife so bring the camera, and not only wildlife, our farm animals are huge hams when it comes to pictures (no pun intended, lol) Fire wood/Water/ Soft drinks/ Snacks available to purchase.

James was very accommodating - the cows were very sweet and the site was nice and quiet (other than the airplanes taking off in the morning nearby). It came with chairs and a dining area plus solar lights. He took us late and last minute which saved our butt. Thank you James!

Great experience!
This was our second time and North Shore Relic Ranch and we had a great time. There are various activities such as hiking, petting farm animals, exploring the property, fishing, or just chilling by the campfire. The host is very kind and resourceful; We rented a tent that was in great condition and very easy to set up. The cows and goats are very sweet. The cars, boats and planes are a great photo op. The campsite itself was secluded enough for our comfort and came with a few chairs, solar-powered lights, and a fire pit. Thank you!

Another Successful Camp!
This was my second time at North Relic. I love the tent sites, spacious, well-maintained, and tucked away. Stargazing, the calls from night owls, and the opportunity to hike and explore the property... We just had a great time once again. James is such a nice guy, and he's always responsive and excited to show you developments at the camp. There's always something new to see! The camp is just an excellent way to unplug from city stress. Will definitely be back!
