Welcome to Cozy Freedom at Earthperks Farm, where the convenience of town meets the serenity of nature in perfect harmony amid the beauty of Florida's pine forests. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of city life, our agritourism destination offers a unique camping experience that allows you to immerse yourself in the natural splendor of the Sunshine State, yet a direct drive of just 11 miles to the Atlantic Ocean. Our camping sites are nestled within a pristine pine flatwoods ecosystem, where towering pines create a canopy overhead, dappling the forest floor with patches of sunlight. Each campsite is thoughtfully spaced to offer privacy and tranquility, allowing you to unwind and reconnect with nature. Awake to the melodic trill of songbirds greeting the dawn, and start your day with a leisurely hike in Tiger Bay State Forest nature trails directly connected behind the farm. Meander through the pine forest, pausing to admire the delicate wildflowers that carpet the forest floor and the occasional glimpse of wildlife darting among the trees. Historically, Cozy Freedom was occupied by the Timucuan Indians who hunted the forest and swamp land. Efforts to preserve and celebrate Timucuan heritage continue, as descendants and scholars work to honor the contributions of this ancient and resilient people. More recent history of the property included a plant nursery and beekeeping location. Our agritourism destination offers a journey of discovery through the cultivation of produce, blueberries, ginger, turmeric, bamboo, flowers, and more. Our guided tours provide a behind-the-scenes look at the intricate process of growing and harvesting these remarkable crops, from planting the seeds to nurturing the plants through each stage of growth. Resident bats help with the mosquitos. Wind down in the evening by walking and meditating through our 11-circuit walking labyrinth. Feel the inner peace, calm your nerves, be refreshed, celebrate! What else do you need to achieve cozy freedom?! Day trips to St. Augustine, Orlando, Cape Canaveral and Ocala.  Visit local Old Florida sites nearby, including Bulow Plantation Ruins, Tomoka State Park, and Barberville Pioneer Settlement. Take a swim at any of the crystal clear springs within less than an hour or borrow our 2 kayaks and paddle down the Tomoka River. Wintertime is peaceful and ideal for camping in Florida. We do have some nights that drop into the 30's, but most days are perfect to be outside. Summers are hot and wet and mosquitos will drive you inside from mid-June through to the end of August. Enjoy staying put on the farm or safely leaving your belongings while visiting the sights in the area.  Someone is always nearby onsite, but privacy is respected. Property is situated on a thoroughfare between Ocala and Ormond Beach with audible traffic during the day, so not ideal for individuals seeking absolute silence.

We had an amazing camping experience. The land is peaceful and our site was nestled among the trees. Beautiful vegetation and grounds. We loved gazing at the Bamboo. Our dogs enjoyed it too. It was a wooded oasis. The barn, outdoor kitchen and tractors were so cool! Definitely recommend… the nicest people. Excellent communication and kindness. I appreciate the firewood at entrance of our site. The outdoor shower was very nice too! Will definitely return. Great hiking! It was hard to leave… my family and I will always cherish.

A wonderful Hipcamp experience

Our whole experience was wonderful. Farmer Rich and Mindy went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable. We ended up staying in site #2 instead of #6, but it was private and spacious and perfect for our needs. Their property is beautiful and backs up to a state forest. The stars were incredible!! Our two boys and dog Echo had a blast too. I highly recommend this Hipcamp for anyone traveling to/through the area. We will definitely return if we are near the area.

I had a terrific time camping here. Beautiful acreage, lots of privacy, star gazing amidst the tall pines. The outdoor kitchen gave me a place to go when it rained. Rich and Mindy went out of their way to make sure I was taken care of. I got to see their new bamboo plantings as well. Definitely would return!
