Days at Fiddler’s Green RV Ranch are what you make them out to be. With no daily planned activities, you’re welcome to explore the hundreds of miles of horse-friendly trails located in the Ocala National Forest (located right next to the ranch) at your own pace, and can even take your horse for a swim at the local lake to cool down after an all-day trail ride.

On days that you want to take it easy, you’re able to ride in the outdoor and covered arenas on the property, or just sit outside on the deck of your villa and enjoy watching your horses graze in the nearby paddocks. During the evenings, you can socialize with other visitors during potluck dinners and game nights.
