Welcome to the "Wild and Scenic Myakka River"!
Our 20 acre ranch has everything from Longhorn cattle, to a white sand beach. We like to say our sand is like Siesta Key, except it's...in a swamp. Our property is not too far upstream from the Myakka State park, and parking is never a problem. ;-)
We have a beautiful homestead, and you have the choice of a furnished camper with water and power hookups in our pasture, or 2 primative tent or RV spots on the edge of a beautiful stand of Live Oak trees and Sabal palms along the river.
We have a porta potty on site that is regularly maintained.
Bring your family, bring your dog, bring your friends.....and don't forget to bring a fishing pole!
The campsite offers a serene and picturesque setting right alongside the Myakka River, adored for its peaceful atmosphere and opportunities for kayaking and wildlife watching, including playful otters. Guests frequently mention the friendliness and helpfulness of the hosts, Rebecca and Kary, enhancing the overall experience. While there is a note about the absence of potable water, the clean and well-maintained facilities, such as the porta-potty, are appreciated. Visitors leave feeling relaxed and eager to return, although some mention occasional noise from target practice in the distance during the day.

Awesome site, right by the water, had a nice beach, private and spacious site with fire pit, super nice host, lots of animals, woke up right next to cows, tortoises you can feed, overall great campsite!
We had a beautiful large private site right on the river. We were able to launch our canoe and kayak at the site. We had otters playing in the river on 2 days. Site was clean and well kept. Currently there is no potable water, so bring water or boil river water. Hosts were outstanding!
