Property was once a horse rescue before I had it. There was nothing here. My love of people and animals and the forest drew me here. When you are here you are family. We are right on the Ocala Forest and close to just about anything you might want to do. The property is surrounded on 3 sides by the Ocala National Forest. Learn more about this land: Located on the Ocala National Forest. Centrally located to Orlando and Daytona Beach. There is world class fishing nearby at the St, Johns River. Historic Mt. Dora close by.  The Villages are 6 miles away as well.

Site 2 - Black Horse Ranch
Having a laundry soap dispenser in the laundry room would be very helpful. Also providing a rudimentary map of the area would make things much more easily accessible. All in all this place is nice. I would stay here again, and will tell my friends who have horses about it.

Site 2 - Black Horse Ranch
very cool experience...
We had the best time at Black Horse Ranch, and I can't really say anything bad about the experience! However, we must warn you about the SAND. We saw one review that mentioned it was very sandy, but none of the other reviews did, so we decided to take a chance. Pay attention, it is a sandy place! The HIP camp website STATED PLAINLY that 40 foot rigs would fit just fine. However, when we arrived, JoAnn was SHOCKED that our rig was so big, and I honestly thought for a minute she was going to tell us to leave. Also, when we made the reservation, we were given site 2. We took site 2 because a review said it was a good site for their "large rig". When we arrived at Black Horse, we were told site 2 was full. Again, JoAnn was very accommodating and very nice, and she drove us around the place till we found a spot we thought we could work with. We did set up camp, and we had a GREAT time there for two days! Everyone was sooooo nice!!!! Oh, we also signed up for a 50 amp spot on the HIP camp site, but when we arrived, because we couldn't get the site 2 we "thought" we were going to get, we ended up with a 30 amp site. AND, the last thing you might need to know is that there is NO WIFI. The HIP camp description says there is, but there is not. I sure hated to say anything bad about this place, because we had the best time. But these are things anyone with a large rig needs to know that may want to go there. Call ahead and check details.

Everything you need!
Joann’s Black Horse Ranch was amazing even if you have no horse and just want to come down for a little while. Full hook ups , space for your horse ( if you have one) trails to walk or ride, a big arena, a pool and very nice pöble around you! Joann is very friendly and takes good care of you. The bathrooms are very nice and need. We will definitely come back when we are in the area. Thank you Joann for everything! Peter & Ann

Pack a vacuum
Loved our stay here. So peaceful and relaxing. The other guests we met were very friendly and let us pet their horses. The location was great too because there’s several activities to drive to in any direction. The only thing we disliked was the sand, which may not be a problem if you have a fifth wheel. But for a large RV (ours is 38”) you may have trouble getting stuck in the sand. Leveling was trouble too. After putting down several leveling blocks, the front end was so high, the stairs were a huge step up to get into the RV. And the sand was everywhere by the end of the trip. It was like we had camped at the beach. So make sure you pack a vacuum or broom to tidy up with.
