"Florida Cracker Camp" is a native undisturbed 5 acre parcel in Golden Ranches, a 1,200 acre rural acreage subdivision in eastern Charlotte County. Being “a cracker property” means the property is perfect as a recreational retreat to be enjoyed to its fullest as typical Florida natives enjoy the land and the season of the year. It is "a place to get away…actually a real hideaway.” The land supports a native palmetto prairie and a native oak, pine, and cabbage hammock. A mile to the east is a large cattle ranch and to the north of the tract is an abandoned orange grove and to the west an active grove. Often in these groves will be found wild hog, deer, turkey and small game. There is a pond directly to the west of the property on the neighboring grove which attracts game. Recreation in SW Florida is often based on what the season offers and during hunting season hunting is permitted on local state game and private preserves off of SR74. Access to the property is via Eugene Drive, which is the best road in the subdivision with electric service within a quarter mile of the tract.
