    Cookie the cow not wanting to be milked. FYI the plant in front (tropical soda apple) has a lot of thorns, even on the leaves.

    This is a tough one...I want to rate them better but not sure exactly how to. We went there this weekend (2 adults, an 11 yr old, and a 7 yr old). We did get $4 off for being healthcare workers, but it was still $56 total for all of us. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and our guide Emma was very sweet and knowledgeable. Unfortunately when we went we were not able to milk the cow (cookie) as she apparently wasn't wanting to that day. So what did we do? Well, we learned about some of Florida's native animals at the education station, went to the back and were able to see cookie and the new calf with her, watch the 7yr old get on a mini horse/pony and ride around for a couple of minutes, see donkeys, catch chickens, pet goats, see turkeys, pigs, a rabbit, and there was a slide for the kids to go down (only the 7 yr old went). Afterwards we decided it was basically an educational petting zoo. The rest of our group had smaller children with them, so there was some smaller kid crying and whining a bit...but neither you nor the farm can help that. The ponies were not big enough for the 11 yr old and they said they sometimes bring out the larger horses...not sure when though. The slide is also only for the kids. For the price, not really a good deal. Maybe if the cow was available and they had horses that everyone could ride, maybe? As I said though, the grounds are beautiful and it would be a nice place for a picnic. Perhaps if you're considering going, call ahead the day of to see if any of the "attractions" are closed.

    This is an old farm that has been opened for years. Every person that visits the farm gets a tour guide and they take you around the farm and give you information about each station that you go to with the animals. There were about 8 stations. Jason was very patient and great with the kids. The students were able to pet a donkey, pig, rabbit, goat, they learned how to catch a chicken, milk a cow, and rode a horse, they were able to ride on a tractor through the "oldest" camp in Florida where they saw cabins from the 1940's. They give you hand sanitizer before you leave each station. We didn't eat lunch there, but there is a covered pavilion to eat your lunch if you chose to bring it. The students received great educational information and had a great authentic experience learning about animals.

    My cousin from Los Angeles who is originally from Miami chose to have her wedding here with her fiance who is from the Gainesville area. This place wasn't exactly neutral but after searching far and wide and considering they could have had their wedding anywhere between Florida and California she ended up choosing this place, McMicky's farm in a place none of us have been before really. I've been to Florida more times that I can remember but I've never really gone often to the west side so as far as Odessa or north Tampa goes it was new. Plugging the address into the GPS made this place not hard to find and considering some of eastern Florida was dealing with Hurricane Matthew this place showed no sign of bad weather or wear of any kind. Lucky for us considering the wedding was the Saturday following when Matthew hit the area between Daytona and Jacksonville. Arriving close to 5pm (when the wedding was actually set to start) the area is so quiet and serene. The sunlight reflects off the almost still water while green surrounds the peripheral vision. The stirring of a few quiet farm animals can be heard and while it's a farm that has a few animals on site it doesn't smell overwhelmingly like there are many animals present. The lake is beautiful and the slope leading to the water is ever so gradual. The skies and sun that afternoon were perfect. I could see why my cousin selected this place to host her most special day with her closest friends and family that traveled from Miami-Dade, friends from LA and us, from Toronto. This venue is the two of them to a tee, genuine, down to earth wholesome goodness. There was nothing over the top here and it didn't have to be but rather a really good place to host an outdoor ceremony by a clear still lake landscape. The reception area was covered and well dressed and comfortable. It was a great night put together by two special people and McMicky's helped make it perfect for them. Thank you.

    Had a great time here with my 4 year old niece. She loved it. And our guide Audrey along with the rest of the staff did an amazing job. Audrey was very knowledgeable & super patient with all the little kids. Great hands on experience for kids to pet the animals, learn a little, go down a fun slide and do a hay ride. Highly recommended and it would be a fun place for a kids birthday party

    My son and I went on the tour today. Its educational & organized. Very structured which is nice however I prefer a walk about location. The people are very nice but strict. The guy tried his best with the kids which I appreciated his temperament. It's a nice place if you're into structure. I guess I expected more from the hayride but my son has a blast eventhough he's 2 as an adult I was bored after first 10 min. The pony ride is once around circle, of 2 people are paying they should have at least twice.i go to another farm which is cheaper in oldsmar. It's not as structured nor clean but it give the farm vibe as a normal farm. The only reason why I gave it a 4 star is the only room one lap on the pony ride for $27 1 adult 1 2yrold is pricey in my opinion however my son is happy & everyone was civilized in was success.

    See all

I truly didn't think this could happen to me but it did. I was consistently told by this venue that once you put your deposit down, that secures your date. Great! We had our deposit put down and I got confirmation of it being received. The contract for my fiance and I to sign was sent out, with our date in the contract, and we sign it. Six minutes later after we both sign the contract online, I get a call from their office assistant saying "our managers had miscommunication and that date is actually taken and a different bride had to reschedule and take that date". When I tell you my mouth dropped and my heart sunk, I thought there's no way. Messing with the date of a wedding is not something small to brush off...this is something huge yet they somehow screwed it up. It gets even better with the fact that their assistant said they had a meeting with management and they could not compromise. I chose a date in off peak season, which qualifies for a discount, and on a Saturday at the end of September for a CERTAIN reason. So when I put down my deposit, and between the contract stating the date, "because the manager didn't sign it yet" it was not set in stone. I WAS TOLD MULTIPLE TIMES MY DEPOSIT SECURES THE DATE. The fact that the management screwed up and couldn't help or compromise or give me whatever date I wanted at this point was honestly the most upsetting. It is clearly a money hungry venue with bad business practices. I obviously have never planned a wedding, this venue was perfect for our budget, and they just made this TEN times more stressful and hard on us. You should NOT be doing business like this and treat your brides this way. They then immediately voided my contract after they called me to tell me the date wasn't available. Please do not use this venue. If they can't get the scheduling correct for you and secure your date, imagine how you wedding is going to go. Yes, many people may have had great weddings here, but they do not have good business practices by treating their renters this way after a mistake on THEIR part.

This particular one is located on the northeast side of SR 54 and Suncoast Parkway intersection. Check-in was easy and the staff was friendly. There is plenty of parking around the hotel. The hallways look very new in their design and are bright and clean. We got an upper floor room. The rooms are single-room suites with a desk with a wall between the bedroom/bathroom and the sitting area. The sitting area comes with a couch, desk and small kitchen arrangement. There is a single TV shared between both spaces. The room seemed well-kept and functional. There are many hotel choices in the area and it is close to several restaurant choices which made it convenient for our stay for the quality and the price. There was only one challenge to my stay there. We asked for our room to be cleaned daily and it did not get cleaned at any point in our multi-day stay. We had to ask for towels each day and the front desk staff seemed questioning when I informed them of the issue.

We were greeted at the door and taken right away to our table. It was Wednesday night, so it wasn't very busy. Our waitress was super attentive and offered a lot of advice on the menu.

Their cute shell shaped butter was delicious, I guess it was a brown sugar butter, which offered just the right sweet on top of their warm bread. Our table enjoyed Caesar salad and the beet salad, both of which did not disappoint. The salads were offered in a small or large portion. The French onion soup was a relatively small portion, but when paired with the salad, it was a perfect meal. I was told the burger was one of the best they'd ever had, and the Parmesan potatoes were delicious. Both the scallop risotto and filet tips were hits too. We all cleaned our plates.
