Awesome place.... ending summer time and we have a wonderful paradise in the wild wet prairie full of Yellow.... surrender a nice walk trail, one mile and a half... sunflowers both sides... If you cant walk, then you can drive. You wont miss anything. Get your tablecloths, maybe you want to have a picnic there. Ha!... Dont forget your camera!
What a gorgeous place for hiking and mountain biking! The trails are adrenaline-filled, there are different courses from beginner to advanced, but they are natural, without roller-coastery turns and extra elevation. In October the small sunflowers bloom into a golden sea, its incredible.
Pepper ranch preserve was a good place for the scouts to be camping it was a large area to camp although they had a cap at 60 people. Had tons of fun other then Saturday night some where near the camp site they were blasting music till around 2 am.
Great for trail riding and exploring...plenty of deer and wildlife to see.
We had a lovely time just taking our good ole time wandering through this lovely preserve viewing the wild sunflowers! I would highly recommend a visit here! Although the sunflower viewing is a very limited time.
Great place with friendly staff. The park is maintained quite well. I didnt explore much but I plan to when the MTB trails open up. Just stopped by for the sunflower blossoms.
Absolutely Stunning! I would love to find a group that brings their horses out here, my kids would love a horseride in nature
Not much detail from the people running it but it is worth exploring
Beautiful property, beautiful sunflowers, saw a family of deer. Great place
Came here for the sunflowers it was a peaceful and beautiful place will cone back again next year
Awesome trails! Well maintained!
Love the Sunflowers. Absolutely beautiful.
Easy trails with lots of roots and a few rocks. Almost zero elevation change but this is Florida. Feels like riding through a jungle out there!
Great plan for a disused ranch!
We had a Cub Scout camping trip and me and the whole group had an amazing time!
Beautiful, quiet. Great place for pictures. We drove through, stopping occasionally for pictures and just to take it all in. Natural setting. Peaceful.
I loved it!! Beautiful sunflowers
Enjoyed the flora, fauna, and animals seen at Pepper Ranch Preserve. Some of my good friends took me for a visit. It was quite an experience!
Unspoiled land, interesting variety of trails, hardly anyone goes here. Enjoyable day.
Easy hiking trails, ranger was great. Got to see one of the eagles and some ospreys feed at the lake, clean but not private camping sites in South section. Did not go to north section
One of those places that takes you away from the rest of the world. Definitely a hidden treasure!
Loved it..just wish we would have seen more wildlife.
The wild life and seclusion is amazing!!! Feels like you are hundreds of miles from civilization. Definitely a must visit if you are in the area
My family and I love it here especially during the sunflower harvest
Beautiful sunflowers/black eyed Susan field
Beautiful area. Amazingly friendly staff.
Beautiful place. Peaceful. Good fishing.
Friendlyand helpful staff at peak of blooming season.
Its beautiful
While Pepper Ranch is a functioning cattle ranch(cow-calf operation) the Ranch is also a wildlife park. My cameras have seen deer, panthers, bears, bobcats, turkeys, alligators and much more. The Ranch has about six square miles of land with a central road, branching trails, and many paths. Keep your eyes open for the wildlife that call this home.
Never knew about it went for first time and was a real peaceful beautiful place to be
Collier countys 2nd largest park. Its always open in the Winter/Spring season on Fridays from 9 to 4 and most Saturdays and Sundays but once a month its closed on the weekend so call ahead or check their website for open days.
