About this property

Enjoy this Natural Preserve.

Escape to the tranquil beauty of Royce Ranch, a 21-acre retreat nestled within the breathtaking 3,000-acre natural preserve of Lake Wales Ridge (Royce unit) National Park. Whether you're seeking a family getaway or a group retreat, our private ranch offers a unique opportunity to connect with nature in comfort and style.

Enjoy world-class fishing at nearby Lake Istokpoga, one of Florida's biggest and best fishing lakes. Bring your bikes, horses, or hiking shoes and explore the stunning trails of Lake Wales Ridge. Or take your boat out for a day of bass fishing on any of the 29 named lakes in Lake Placid.

Located just 10 minutes from the charming Town of Lake Placid, Royce Ranch is the perfect base to explore the "Town of Murals," featuring 47 murals painted on buildings throughout the town. Lake Placid is also known as the "Caladium Capital of the World," with 98% of the world's caladium bulbs coming from the area. Readers Digest even named it America's Most Interesting Town!

Wake up to the serene sight of a herd of 50 wild turkeys strolling by your window, or catch a glimpse of deer on your sunset nature walk. The 2022 updated house boasts two fully equipped kitchens (inside and outside), along with new kitchen and laundry appliances, linens, and furniture, ensuring a comfortable and convenient stay.

Please note that hunting is not allowed at Royce Ranch. Book your stay today and experience the magic of this idyllic Florida oasis!

Beautiful outdoor nature getaway.
A group of ladies and I stayed at this home for our annual girls trip. It was beyond fabulous. All we needed was available and more! The outdoor kitchen and pool are very inviting. Witnessed many different birds, turkeys, cows and donkeys. A trip spent enjoying nature. We brought bikes. Bonus was a quaint little town …Lake Placid downtown with all the murals plus many kind of different adventures if inclined to leave the home at Al!
