Welcome to Smokey Acres! This property has been in my family for decades. My Husband and I were married under the oaks and have had our share of campfires out there. Down a hidden gravel drive with wetlands on either side you will find a completely fenced in field surrounded by pine, oak, and swamp maple trees. There are two ponds located on the property both stocked with bass, bluegill, and sunfish. The front pond is home to many natural Florida wildlife and is a great location to bird watch. Located a few miles from Brooksville and the Suncoast Parkway, this quiet and peaceful setting is just 5 minutes from the parking area and trailhead for the Suncoast Trail and 10 miles from the famous Weeki Wachee Springs, where you can spend the day at the local park or float down the river with the manatees. Withlacoochee State Park and other natural preserves with trail access and kayaking are only a short distance away, and Dames Cave, Homosassa Springs, and Chasawiska Springs are all within a ~20-minute drive as well. Spending a day at the beach is easy with plenty of options along the Nature Coast. We’re also less than an hour from Tampa and Clearwater and two hours from Orlando. A perfect weekend get-away for anyone looking to “unplug,” Smokey Acres is also a great stop for those passing through the area. We are a close distance to many racing, livestock, boating and fishing events. We have no problem accommodating whatever you’re towing! Whether you'd like a leisurely day on the river or an adventure in the Gulf, there are plenty of boating options nearby. Be sure to make it back to the property in time to enjoy amazing sunsets that bring peace and tranquility to your experience. Our neighbors, JG Ranch, offers U- Pick Fruit and Vegetables or a great selection of local harvest at their roadside stand. This 10-acre property has been in my family for decades. My Husband and I were married under the oaks and have had our share of campfires together out there. I've recently moved back home with my own family and as much as we enjoy the land for ourselves we'd love to share it. Any profit from hosting campers will help us maintain our sustainable farm that we're hoping to expand onto Smokey Acres. Just in! Our dirt road has been repaved. So no worries about a bumpy drive in!

What a beautiful, secluded campsite! Very private and quiet. Hilary gave great directions, it was easy to find. I would stay here again.

Always Great Smokey Acres
It's the closest to where you can park site out of 5,6,7. Not far at all to walk to the bathroom/showers. Just a pointer 6 is the farthest from the parking

It was alright!
Overall, camping went well here, although this isn’t a place I would want to camp again at! It wasn’t that there were necessarily things wrong with the site; I mean I loved that they provided you with bins and the site was clean, but there was nothing particularly special about this site in my opinion. It was just kinda alright. I didn’t realize that the campsites were so close to others. The people who reserved the place right next to us came in at 12am the first night we were there, which was a little difficult to sleep through. I know they were trying to be quiet but when you’re in a tent, you hear every little thing. There were also some issues with the drain in the bathroom sink, so the water wasn’t going down. My husband and I did really like the fact that there was an amazing coffee shop 3 min away called Mountaineer Coffee and that made it worth it for us!
