About Oxford Big Top Ranch

Oxford Big Top Ranch is based in Oxford, a small community in Sumter County just north of The Villages, one of the largest retirement communities in the United States. This gives the ranch an interesting dual audience: families from surrounding areas looking for unique experiences, and a large local population of active adults who enjoy leisure activities and community events. The ranch holds a perfect 5.0 rating and combines horseback riding with face painting, pointing clearly toward event and party services. Oxford's position in central Florida's horse country adds natural credibility to the equestrian side of what they offer.
