Meet our friendly cows! This cow is named Latte (yep, with our small herd everyone gets a name) and she will happily eat hay out of your hand through the fence.

Welcome to Tranquil Oaks near the Gulf Coast! Secluded camping only 5 minutes from Lake Manatee State Park. Enjoy beautiful sunsets, s'mores by the fire pit, and experience a slice of old Florida charm while being only 10 minutes from I-75 and 40 minutes from the world-renowned white sand beaches of Anna Maria Island. Your site includes a large concrete patio with a picnic table, Adirondack chairs, and a fire pit. This secluded RV/tent campsite offers electric and you can fill up your water tank with our hose. The site is located next to our cattle ranch, and you will likely see our sweet herd of cows grazing in a nearby pasture (some of the friendly ones may come up to the fence to say hi). This offers you privacy while still being close to I-75 and all the modern conveniences (Publix supermarket is 1 mile away). We are third generation cattle ranchers here in beautiful Bradenton, Florida, and on our property you'll find many species of palm trees and tropical plants. Mornings are filled with birdsong, and you may see Sandhill Cranes, Ospreys, White Ibis, or even a Roseate Spoonbill -- and of course the rabbits, lizards and monarch butterflies that also enjoy this special little slice of paradise. We live in the house next door to the campsite, and you'll likely see Ryan around the property working during your stay. Our ranch offers you a chance to relax and reconnect with nature, while only being minutes from restaurants and convenience stores; 15 minutes from University Town Center, 15 minutes from Ellenton Outlets, and 30 minutes to downtown Sarasota.Moonrise Palms is a spacious, secluded campsite nestled among palm trees and live oaks. Enjoy coffee or a meal on the picnic table, roast s'mores on the fire pit, and enjoy our little slice of paradise. This is our only campsite, so you have all the who spot to yourself! You may see us working on the cattle ranch nearby during your stay, and our house is next door to your campsite. Your site includes electric, potable water via a hose, four Adirondack chairs, a fire pit, a large concrete patio area, and a large picnic table for you to enjoy. This campsite is on our family's cattle ranch, so you will likely see our friendly, sweet cows on the other side of the fence. During your stay we are happy to provide some hay and we can call up a few of our friendliest cows that you can feed by hand through the fence.

Camped in a 25 ft class c, Jun 2026.

I had been on the road for about 3 weeks and just really needed a place to chill for a few days and this was it! I definitely needed the electricity because it was so hot and muggy. The hosts were perfect, they introduced themselves, had suggested some places to eat, offered bug spray, and left me to do what I wanted. It was perfect!!!!! I am now restored and back at life again

Melissa and Ryan’s property is beautiful! Very accommodating hosts and the cows are fun to have around your campsite. Brought our ebikes and enjoyed Lake Manatee park and Ft Hamer with our small boat. Great spot!

A charming, secluded spot—yet despite its seclusion, it is situated very close to civilization, just a 10-minute bike ride to Publix. There is also plenty of nature nearby, including Lake Manatee State Park and Rye Preserve. The nights are quiet and peaceful. The hosts are very kind, hospitable, and always willing to help. Thank you for your hospitality; if all goes well, I will be back next year.
