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!

The campsite offers a serene and spacious setting, ideal for those seeking a peaceful retreat. Many campers appreciated the well-maintained amenities, including clean bathrooms and hot showers. Privacy is a highlight, with sites spaced out and surrounded by nature. However, some guests noted the challenges in locating the site and occasional issues with the bathroom facilities.

We had the best time on our weekend camping trip . Wide open spaces for three small boys to run and lots of fun things for them to explore . The stocked pond and the nature trail were a hit . Quiet , peaceful , and plenty of shade . The perfect get away . Will definitely be returning in the future

We had a great time! Walked to the ranch down the road for produce and strawberry picking, my husband did tons of fishing, and we took a nice walk on the nature trail! Will definitely be back!

Avoid This Place – Completely Misle

Tent · With kids ·

Gypsy Garden Primitive Tent Site

Here’s a strong and clear review for your experience: ⸻ Avoid This Place – Completely Misleading and Dirty Our experience at this campground was terrible. The photos online are completely outdated and do not reflect the actual state of the place. Everything is old, dirty, and poorly maintained. The bathrooms were absolutely filthy, as if they hadn’t been cleaned in ages. The tent area had no outlook or nice scenery—just a neglected, uninviting space. Overall, the entire place felt rundown and nothing like what was advertised. If you’re looking for a clean and comfortable camping experience, stay far away from this place.

Gypsy Garden Primitive Tent Site

This place was so great. It was peaceful. We saw wild baby bunnies, unidentified birds, and ducks. The nature trail was a big hit with the kids because of fallen trees they loved climbing. The road noise at night was loud at times. Lots of small planes too because the Brooksville airport is nearby. The soot we had was private and cozy with a wooden deck for tent (although ours is too big for it), nice bew picnic table, water hose, fire pit with chairs all surrounded by a privacy fence. Bathrooms were a bonus for sure and with hot water. We did not use the shower, but there is one. We will be back.

RV Site 1 with hook up NO SEWER

This was our second visit to Smokey Acres. The sites are big so you're not on top of your neighbors. Bathroom and showers kept stocked and clean. There's even a small nature trail with tent sites nestled in the woods. What's not to love!

Great place, close to Weeki Wachee

Bass Pond RV full hookup Site 3

My family enjoyed our stay. We were close to Weeki Wachee, which was our primary destination, but we also enjoyed the u-pick strawberry farm right next door. The site was huge and private despite the openness. The bathroom and showers were just a few minutes away, and we appreciated that we could purchase firewood on-site for a good price. Only complaint was that the bathroom was a little rough. It was cleaned every day, but hey, some smells are persistent.
