Cozy Fruit Cove Cottage on Hobby Farm w/ Wildlife!

Embark on a unique getaway at this mini hobby farm in Fruit Cove, FL! Each morning at this 3-bed, 2-bath vacation rental, you’ll wake up to a menagerie of animals — like South American dart frogs, panther chameleons, Mandarin ducks, and rare chickens. Spend mid-morning admiring the 300-year-old oaks from the screened patio, then pedal to nearby Alpine Groves Park! Afterward, head inside the cottage, where a fully equipped kitchen, Smart TV, and ample entertainment for the kids await.

Hidden Gem
My wife and I were searching for a place to get out of Tampa and approaching Hurricane Milton and we needed a place we could bring our dog. We were fortunate to find this listing and it was a lovely cottage. Crystal made our stay amazing! We originally were going to stay just two nights thinking Milton would come and go, but neighbors that we spoke to told us our neighbor lost power and Crystal helped us work with Evolve to extend our stay two extra nights. You couldn’t ask for a more helpful and sweet person to work with than Crystal. She’s warm and caring and made us feel like old friends. One unique quality of this’d property is it’s a hobby farm with many interesting animals and if you have children with you they would get a kick out of the variety of animals they would see. We highly recommend this property and you would be blessed to get to know Crystal.

A cozy, Enchanting Visit!
We had such a lovely stay. The home has everything you could possibly need. The small details and the personal touch when we checked in was so thoughtful. The minute we walked inside we felt so at home. We loved the little farm, it felt like a wonderful mini retreat. The host was so nice and helpful, we look forward to coming back!

Great Wedding Weekend Getaway
Beautiful home with truly thoughtful amenities including fresh eggs from the farm on the property. Host communicates effectively and responds quickly to questions. She even let us know that her place was clean and ready to go earlier than expected just in case we wanted to check in early! Great stay. We highly recommend it! Five stars just don’t say enough.

I wish we could have stayed longer
This location was GREAT! The property was a little hidden, but it was great to be secluded. The farm animals were a real treat! Our kids loved them and so did the dog. She was as interested as they were. It was great to see such a clean property for having so many animals. We were even greeted with fresh eggs and a basket of treats, which was perfect for when we arrived late in the afternoon. All in all it was a great stay. If I’m ever in the Jacksonville area I will Deff stay again. The host answered back quickly to all the questions I had.

Wonderful time at the Hobby Farm
We were in town to visit family and 4 adults stayed at the cottage on the farm, which is nicely appointed with plenty of any thing we might need. We brought my nieces children and the rest of the family to visit the farm critters, We all loved visiting the animals, Crystal was a wonderful host and very easy to communicate with. I will definitely return to stay at the Hobby Farm, Its a delight for all ages.

Lovely cottage
This cottage is lovely and equipped with everything you may need. The hobby farm animals are unique and fun to watch, and some are just beautiful. Kids of any age will love it. Crystal is a gracious, responsive, helpful, and friendly host. We will definitely stay here again. Note: if you have pets that you take on potty walks at night, be sure to bring your flashlight.

Amazing stay
This place is amazing. This home was very clean, bed comfortable, the hosts even left a note welcoming us. The animals were so cool, the kids really enjoyed it. We're a family of 7 (one in pack and play) and the home was great for us. We only stayed 1 night and we plan to stay again when visiting family in the area. Thank you again!
