Old fashion flea market. So much to look at. Plenty of parking. Nice that they require all dogs on a leash

Love this place there is so much here It is a large place with many vendors. This is just a very small part of the flea market. They have it all here go take a drive and look.

A very large and unique flea market. Motorcycle and car show today ! Vendor spaces come with 2 tables and they are under cover. Large antique co-op is also on the grounds! Great place to buy and sell!

My husband and I are vendors at the flea market and we were there when the old owners had it as well when the new owners took it over the market was in need of a miracle to happen it was really bad miracles don't happen overnight things take time. The market is a constant work in progress for the better. But vendors have to remember flea markets are not responsible for your business you are.

A huge Florida Flea Market.Truly ripped from another time. The produce and hole made stuff ( Jam, honey, ETC) are high quality.The rest is junk of the best kind. DVDs, furniture, tools, antiques, you name it.Was a fun time to wander around and buy some old stuff.

First let me say it was incredibly hot. We went around 12:30 ish. I understand if some vendors didn't want to do the heat. It is a flea market which to me means glorified garage sale. The pandemic has changed a lot of things. I was just happy to walk the place, see the people and talk to the vendors. I bought veggies, Avon, a nice top. Only 1 book. There were lots of books. I exercise refrain. The jewelry was awesome. Nature's Treasure with Mike and Sandy selling turquoise & silver. There is also this one building that had rows and rows of items. It was awesome. Clothes, toys, flowers, incense. I mean you name he had it. I also stopped by SoSo which sells hot sauces and oils and incense. Check out the clock guy. His wife makes them. They are gorgeous. Food vendors, lemonade, bar b que, peanuts 🥜. Good for a day out even if you are not looking for anything in particular. There are tools, cds, albums, furniture, lamps, China, dishes, perfumes, etc., etc., etc. I like 👍

Overall its just a nice and enjoyable place to go to get out of the house on the weekends. You can find very interesting things sometimes and get good deals on things!and other times its just the boiled peanuts that they have that brings me and my family out lol😁specially if you have a little one that enjoys Peanuts and enjoys being outside 8n general and loves being pushed around in her nice comfy stroller!😊 Now one thing that I do have to say is the fact that I have seen some people selling animals such as rabbits chickens puppies and the poor animals always look so sad and miserable and don't know maybe its just me but i love animals so very much and don't enjoy seeing them in real small cages.

I went here before and wasn’t impressed and did not plan on ever coming back, but decided to give it another shot when I heard it was under new management. It still suffers from the fact that lots of “vendors” seem to just use this place as storage - in some spots there is junk piled up waist high without prices, and it’s clearly been left out there for months. Many of the booths like this did not even have vendors sitting with them (and I was there on a Saturday) so they’re not trying to sell anything.Some things looked good, like the produce, and there were interesting antique tools, but the overall experience is definitely dragged down by the gross stuff that’s just piled around and left out in the elements. It seems like the new owners are trying to liven the place up by hosting events but the market still needs to be cleaned up a lot.Making all of the outdoor vendors pack up their stuff at the end of the weekend would improve the market immensely.

Rated 4 stars and I'll explain ..Can't really rate accurately cuz we stopped during the week and they are only open in the weekends.Looks like it could be fun, but some of the reviews say there aren't many vendors.I will say the 4⭐s are because the ancient tractors out front (see pics) are amazing! Well worth stopping even if they're closed. Jus sayin...

For all the hype on their website as well as Facebook, my wife and I were rather disappointed. There wasn't any outdoor vendors in attendance. And there was a lot of empty table and stalls in the buildings. Definitely was not worth the drive from Leesburg.

I stopped last year on the way to St. Pete Beach. It was a nice break from driving. I got a great deal on a buck knife. We bought some other small items. Yes, it seems a little run down but people were friendly. I drive to Florida from Cleveland, Ohio every year and this flea market will be one of my stops from now on. I can't believe I haven't stopped before. Thankyou!

It's vibrant is when I was a kid but it was really fun to bring the kids. My dad used to take us there and then late '80s early '90s and it was packed vendors. The kids had a great time.

This review is actually about a little bbq 🍗 place inside the flea market in Waldo. When you arrive if you go through the main inside corridor to the outside you will take a right ➡️walk down a building 🏚️🏭or two on the left ⬅️you will see a small bbq 🍖 set up uncovered outside. Didn’t see 👀a name, but The stage is just tucked in behind it. Now for your review 🤓we had the bbq ribs dinner 🍽️ which comes with 2 sides🍟🥙and a beverage 🥤but they have sandwiches 🥪 and dessert 🍮. My compliments to the chef 👨🏿‍🍳 those ribs were phenomenal, so tender the meat 🍖just fell off the bone . The coleslaw, Mac n cheese were delicious. The line to order was long but it was so worth the time ⏱️. Enjoy

Not near what I expected since my last visit many years ago. The Saving Grace for this place is going to be the produce vendors and the plant vendors. They have great deals and are very well maintained for the most part. As far as most of the rest of this place it makes Sanford and Son look great. Pop's collected better stuff this looks more like a junkyard than a flea market. To the point to where they have taken tarps and covered up mountains of rotted whatever stuff. They need to come in clear out all of this garbage and get a fresh start. it appears that people are living in the woods as well as in the campers. You can't tell who is working there or who is walking around the vendors are smoking using foul language and just not professional. I get it it's a flea market you can at least run a clean environment and act like you have some sort of manners. And this is not to all people cuz there are good hard working people that are there and there are good vendors that are there just for the most part it needs a good cleaning that would involve roll-off dumpsters.

Decided to check out the Flea Market since it was under new managment. Was very dissapointed that when I got there at 3 most vendors were closed or closing down. Dont say you are open until 4 if you are all but closed at 3!!! Should have fines for vendors cloing early!

Very few vendors, several are very disorganized and cluttered. Only 2 food vendors nonetheless they were very good even if we had to walk to the far back of the market passing empty space after empty space. Tha chili dogs are wonderful.

1st time going. Lots of spots open with people selling items. Got some really good fruits and vegetables from the Farmers Market. Great prices.The unevenness of the walk paths bothered me. It's difficult to walk on uneven ground since my stroke.

It was a bit of a hunt but we found some fun antiques (and a retro video game store!) but I’d say that 30-40% of the stalls were empty (on a Saturday) and there were often big empty gaps between vendors. Some vendors just had stuff in piles without prices, like they were using it as storage and didn’t care if they sold anything or not. It clearly hadn’t been cleaned up in a long time - maybe years. It felt gross and I just wanted to walk past and get to the next building. That isn’t what you want in a place where people are supposed to take their time and shop.Maybe it picks up more during the fall but the flea market desperately needs more/better quality vendors! I remember there being more antiques, cast iron, and tools. Everyone we talked to was very friendly.

Some parts are just what you expect. Deals cheap stuff road side pick ups. Carnival style snacks. Fresh veggies. If your traveling need to stretch your and your pups legs a good location. But have to say a many vendors need encouraged to clean up ….

Great Flea Market, lots of different vendors and used goods, antiques and collectibles. Several different fresh produce vendors. Lots of delicious snacks. A must if you are passing through.

One of the older and better flea markets in Florida. It has a number of permanent shops and the front three lines of stalls are mostly vendors who are there regularly. There are less established vendors in the back three lines of stalls, so there's a more changing variety of items there.Lots of places to get a snack, fresh vegetables, you name it.Lots of tools.Prices depend on the dealer but, for instance, All Saws that go for 15.00 at Gainesville's Repurpose Project were available, in better condition, from a vendor at the Flea Market for 5.00 this past week & Timco wrenches that run 15.00 were 8.00 at the Flea Market.So you can get potentially the best deals there, outside of Yard Sales, of course.A few nice finds are shown in pics.

As a vendor this is a decent place. There's good traffic and people are willing to pay a fair price.

Sadly not the once great place it was. Prices are way to high but vendors say it's because booth rentals have risen. Old knife cutlery shoppe is gone . Produce and peanuts are about only reason left to go here....would love to see new owners or someone invest back into it.
