This farm was perfect for our stop over on the way to Fort Myers. It was fun watching the BMX racers. There was lots of room to park in their field and walk with our dog. Very quiet starry night! Thank, Will for hosting.

This place is truly something special. The site is absolutely stunning and impeccably well maintained—you can feel the care and dedication the moment you arrive. The natural beauty is breathtaking: the trees, the animals, and the peaceful connection with nature make it a perfect escape.
David, the host, is exceptional. He went above and beyond to make sure our experience was as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. His kindness, attentiveness, and hard work really shine through in every detail of the property.
There are activities for all ages, making it ideal for families, couples, or groups of any kind. The outdoor shower was an unforgettable experience, and the on-site amenities—including a movie setup—added such a fun and unique touch.
We cannot say enough about how beautiful this place is or how much effort David puts into maintaining it. It’s a rare gem, and we are already looking forward to coming back. Highly, highly recommended!

Camping at JB Resort was more like visiting a neighbor. The owners love landscaping and spending time with us as guests and friends. I needed some WD40 we went to his shop for it. That led to a tour of his equipment and toys I was right at home.

Very nice large campground that is both perm/seasonal residents and short term campers. Very friendly and welcoming staff and community. Sites were large and lots of green space for pets, nice cement pad, level, and well maintained. Nice laundry room, several machines and all were clean and worked great. Even tho this is a big busy place it never felt crowded and I never had to wait my turn for anything. Plenty of times the heated pool was empty. I will definitely will return. It was just an all around pleasant week at Camp Mack.

The tent camping was peaceful, and the site was comfortable. There was plenty of shade, and, to our surprise & delight, our site had strings of solar lights that helped us see but did not take much away from the natural ambience. The lights were far enough apart that we still enjoyed our view of the night sky.
April, the host, was hellpful, as was her husband Jerry. Chris & Kendall Campion, the owners, swung by one day to check everything out. They were very hospitable and made us feel welcome.
The shower was hot, and the facilities were basic but did the job as described.
The farm animals were an added treat that enhanced both the sights and sounds of the experience.
We didn't take advantage of the play areas this time, but we plan to return this Spring with our kids & Grandkids for a relaxing time away for our whole family.

Amazing to be able to wake up and feed the horses apples for breakfast! The vibe of the farm and Luiz is welcoming and friendly. Your free to explore and feed the animals which is really cool. We were in campsite #1 and the location is right next to the farm and bathroom which is cool. Unfortunately there are some neighbors on the other side of the fence (campsite backside) that either have dogs that like to bark or neighbors that choose to talk on speakerphone at later hours of the night. Couldn't hear them in our camper too bad but definitely a bit of a dent on the vibe. Especially the dogs. There was a whole side we couldn't walk over too without being yapped at. I saw other campsites deeper in the property that definitely wouldn't have these problems. Even with that though, would definitely stay here again if our travels bring us this way!
