The two recently bought the 25-acre site from local businessman Robin Hanger so they can fulfill his dream of turning it into a recreational vehicle campground. They hope their planned Lake Belle RV Resort can cater in part to pickleball enthusiasts coming from all over the country to play at the Pictona pickleball complex down the street.

After years of working to get his Holly Hill RV Resort project off the ground, Robin Hanger’s dream of providing visiting Pictona pickleball players a place to stay is finally set to become a reality, according to The Daytona Beach News-Journal.

The Holly Hill, Fla., businessman looks forward to being the first to camp there, but not as its owner.

That’s because he recently sold the 25 acres at 490 Flomich St. on Oct. 6 to Julie Mericle Smith of DeLand and Larry Kaylor of Colorado. They hope to break ground on the $7 million-plus project by year’s end.

Smith and Kaylor confirmed their intentions to carry out Hanger’s vision — with some tweaks.

They’ve already changed the project’s name to Lake Belle RV Resort.

Plans call for Lake Belle RV Resort to include 90 recreational vehicle campsites with electric/water/sewer utility hookups. It will also have a building with an office, a bathhouse with restrooms, showers and laundry facilities, and a club store. Rental paddleboards and kayaks will be available to use on a planned 10-acre lake.
