    Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground

    Lots of activities

    Pricey but it's Disney. Lots of activities to do at the campground without going to the parks. Clean and well maintained campsites and bathrooms. The roads are narrow in the loops and the sites can be difficult to get into. Pet friendly with dog parks and trails.

    Encore Clerbrook

    Hole In One For this RV Parking Course

    It’s not common to find a spot that you can plant your RV on and go out to hit the links for the day all in the same location, but here at Clerbrook Golf & RV Resort you can hit par on both fronts. Located right off Route 27 just due west of Lake Apopka in central Florida, Clerbrook offers nearly 300 acres of prime landscape that posits 1200+ RV slots for your parking and vacationing pleasure. Here you’ll be able to perfectly blend a golfing oasis that blends its RV offering complete with lush vegetation, interconnecting ponds and narrow canals all surrounded by ancient Oaks draped with Spanish Moss. 

    As far as amenities goes, Clerbrook does not disappoint. Here’s just a small list of all the great amenities you’ll find: Welcome Center, Heated Swimming Pools, BBQ and Picnic tables, Planned Activities, Clubhouses, Billiard Room, Card Rooms, Post Office, Fishing Area, 18 Hole Golf Course with Pro Shop (note: first 9 holes are complimentary with a visit to the Pro Shop), Exercise & Fitness Center, Horseshoe Pits, Recreation Hall, Laundry, Shuffleboard Courts, Library, Nature Walks, Pets Welcome, Picnic Pavilion, Driving Range, Dog Park, Wood Shop, Basketball Court, Playground, Restrooms & Showers, Softball Field, Hot Tub, RV Storage, complimentary WiFi, Arts and Craft Classes as well as Live Entertainment on the weekends. Of course, for RV’ers you can expect both back-in and pull-through slots with all of the traditional water, sewage and electric (30 / 50 amp) hook-ups. 

    Insider’s tips? Here’s a few: (1) If you’ve got wine on your mind (and why wouldn’t you when on holiday?!), just meander a few miles south of Clerbrook and you’ll discover a fairly respectable winery called Lakeridge Winery & Vineyards offering tours and tastings featuring Muscadine grapes (apparently a prominent grape varietal down in these parts known for their antioxidant qualities; (2) When you get tired of fixing every meal from your mini-fridge or cooler, then you’ll have to head south to Clermont where you’ll find PeruRican Ceviche, which for these parts is pretty outstanding and if you are still longing for pizza, check out Mamma Rita’s Pizzeria for some good pies and pasta; and (3) If nature is calling and you want to get out for a good hike, then head due south to Hiawatha Preserve that has a few dog parks, playgrounds, picnic areas, hiking paths, and of course, access to Lake Hiawatha, in case you want to drop your kayak or canoe in the water. 

    Happy Camping!

    Thousand Trails Orlando

    Huge park

    This is probably the largest park we have ever stayed in. We normally go for the smaller quaint parks but we decided to try it out. We went along the outside rim in site Mako 7. The sites are large enough and have most have full hook ups. Not many trees for shade, but it is in Florida so that is to be expected. We were fortunate to have a couple of grassy areas around close to walk the dog. There is a dog park but it was on the other end of the campground. We did go one day and the park is nice. It’s sand and has poop bags. But no water for drinking so take your own. This side of the park had more trees and was nice for walking around with the dog. No WiFi in the area closest to the dog park. Sites seemed mostly level but only the new section has nice concrete pads. The older sections are hit and miss as to what the site looks like. All in all it’s a great location for visiting all the local attractions... (but we didn’t do that).

    Lithia Springs

    Lithia Springs Park

    Lithia Springs Conservation Park is a hidden gem for camping in Florida. The campground is clean, well-maintained, and tucked away in a peaceful natural setting. Sites are spacious with plenty of shade, and the amenities like restrooms and picnic areas are kept in great shape. The best part is being just a short walk from the beautiful natural spring, perfect for swimming and cooling off. It’s a great spot for families or anyone looking to relax and enjoy the outdoors. I’ll definitely be coming back!

    Hillsborough River State Park Campground

    There is a lot to do!

    This park is full of great adventures. If you like to hike, there are a bunch of different trails to walk and they run alongside the river. You may even have the opportunity to catch site of some alligators as this river is very populated with them. There is also a cute shop and cafe so if your not feeling up to cooking, you can head there. At the shop you have the opportunity to swim in the pool, rent kayaks, canoes, and bikes. I also love that they are pet friendly. I take my dog everywhere (and sometimes my cat) and they enjoyed the trails just as much as I did!

    Lazydays RV Resort

    Very nice campground

    This campground was adequate and very close to I-4. Sites are accommodating and clean. Pool and restaurant on site. If you have a dog they have a couple of dog parks on site buy I would recommend sites 36, 37 or 38. Large grass area for your own private dog area.

    Kissimmee RV Park

    RV Sardine Can

    If you’re looking for a spot to park your 5th wheel or mobile RV campsite for the night and don’t mind being shoulder to shoulder with likeminded RV campers, then the flatly paved surfaces of Kissimmee RV Park, complete with 193 campsites, might just be for you. While just off the I-4 corridor taking you into Orlando (only 30 or so minutes due north of this location), pet-friendly Kissimmee RV Park offers close proximity to and affordable overnight accommodations near all of the amusement parks (just 6.5 miles away) the Magical City has to offer. 

    As far as amenities go, there’s a handful: recreation hall, full-service kitchen, heated pool, shuffle board court, bingo, horseshoe pits, scattered BBQ grills, spartan restrooms and bath house (although in need of refurbishment), laundry-O-mat, ice machine, free WiFi (but only at rec hall and pool – many people complained that they couldn’t access WiFi while at their sites, but if you read the fine print, that’s not what this place promises), RV storage, dog parks & walking paths, a few scattered gazebos and a propane tank refilling station. Each site comes with its own flat concrete slab that you can call home for the night, accompanied by a lone picnic table and all the typical hook-ups you would expect (30 / 50 electric amp, water, sewage, etc.) along with designated dump sites and an electric charging station as well as small pond. 

    Insider’s tips? Sure, here’s a few: (1) if you are tent camping, apparently Kissimmee RV Park has some sites, but as we were passing through with an RV, I didn’t bother to look, so check this out; (2) Tired of foraging through your cooler or on-board mini-fridge for your next meal? Then there’s no shortage of options being this close to Disney, so while there’s the chain restaurants nearby (Chili’s, Perkin’s, BJ’s, etc.), I recommend a few off-the-beaten places like Fat Boy’s BBQ, Savion’s Place or Capone’s Dinner & Show Theater;(3) Fan of comic books? My family and I stumbled across Coliseum of Comics Kissimmee and it was a nice diversion for a few hours; and (4) Want to go back in time for a nice meal and theater?! Then look no further than Medieval Times, which is literally just down the road! 

    Happy Camping!


Guide to Dundee

Campsites near Dundee, Florida provide access to central Florida's distinct wetland terrain, characterized by cypress forests and freshwater lakes at elevations averaging 150 feet above sea level. The area experiences humid subtropical conditions with summer highs regularly exceeding 90°F between June and September, creating a year-round camping season with particularly comfortable conditions from October through May. Camping options range from rustic state park experiences to resort-style destinations.

What to do

Explore wildlife observation areas: Lake Kissimmee State Park Campground offers excellent wildlife viewing opportunities with dedicated observation areas. "The park is super quiet and there is a ton of wildlife roaming. Dog friendly, they provide poop bags by the dumpsters," notes Corey K. The park features a tall observation tower for broader views of the surrounding habitat.

Attend themed entertainment: Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground offers unique themed camping activities beyond the parks. "The sing along was fun. Chip and dale walk around to everyone. they ask that you don't leave your spot and they will come to you and really they do," shares Samantha O. The campground hosts regular evening activities like campfire sing-alongs with Disney characters.

Use nearby bike trails: Central Florida offers extensive paved cycling routes accessible from campgrounds. "Very close to a long biking trail & there's a gas station near the entrance," reports Amanda W. about Camp Margaritaville RV Resort and Cabana Cabins Auburndale. The Auburndale bike trail extends for 29 miles through scenic countryside.

What campers like

Spacious natural sites: Lake Kissimmee State Park provides well-separated camping areas with natural borders. "Campsites are far enough apart for privacy with lots of shades trees. Each site has a firepit," writes Stephanie G. The park maintains sites with crushed shell pads surrounded by native vegetation.

Water recreation options: Oak Hammock Resort features multiple water access points for fishing and recreation. "Beautiful landscape mixed with outdoor activities. Pond in addition to lake. Bountiful with wildlife. Full hookups, laundry, game room, outdoor ping pong, trails, lakeside dock, fishing dock on pond and wifi," notes John R.

Clean facilities: Cypress Campground & RV Park maintains well-kept restrooms and common areas. "The bathrooms were clean and adequate, the campsites were not huge but just fine," explains Rachel C., who appreciated the campground's proximity to attractions. "The park was clean, convenient and the staff was super friendly."

What you should know

Cell service limitations: Remote campgrounds may lack reliable connectivity. "Cell service is practically non existent in the park and within 10 miles from the park. Keep an eye on gas, there's one place about 6 miles from the park and town is about 15 miles away," warns Corey K. about Lake Kissimmee State Park.

Seasonal campground hours: Certain amenities operate seasonally in the Dundee area. "Cow camp is only open Oct-May. Only 30amp hook up and no sewer, but there is a dump station," adds Corey K. about Lake Kissimmee State Park's facilities.

Site selection considerations: Orlando/Kissimmee KOA offers various site types with different advantages. "This park has 3 types of Motorhome/Camper sites; back-in, pull-through and deluxe patios. They are all full hook-ups(50Amp, water, sewer and cable)," explains Brandie B. The tent sites include covered kitchen areas with sinks and electrical outlets.

Tips for camping with families

Water activity planning: Camp Margaritaville offers dedicated areas for different age groups. "Great location and fun for the whole family! Clean, well maintained and friendly atmosphere; we just love coming and getting away; even for a few days! Kids played for four hours straight and went back for more after dinner!" shares Janel P.

Entertainment options: Cypress Campground & RV Park provides family-friendly recreation facilities. "The pool was just what we needed, the put-put was a fun activity, the bathrooms were clean and adequate," mentions Rachel C., who stayed while visiting Legoland just 3 miles away.

Family site selection: Larger families should consider site location carefully at pet-friendly camping near Dundee. "Our campsite was 1709. We were walking distance to the pool, arcade, trading post, and campfire/sing along. There were about 20 rv/camping spots in our loop," explains Samantha O. at Disney's Fort Wilderness, noting the convenience of centrally located sites.

Tips from RVers

Site access challenges: Some campgrounds have tight turning spaces that require planning. "My only problem with wilderness camping. There is not a lot of room in the loops to pull your rv into the spot. There is plenty of room between your rv and your neighbor next to you but not a lot of room across from your spot," cautions Samantha O. about navigating at Disney's Fort Wilderness.

Low-hanging branches: Watch for overhead obstacles when positioning larger rigs. "Be careful of low hanging tree branches when backing in," warns Denise about Lake Kissimmee State Park, where natural tree canopy may interfere with taller vehicles.

Hookup placement: Central Park RV Resort requires additional planning for connections. "Good power. Good water pressure. Sewer location was very far away," notes Mark P., highlighting the importance of bringing sufficient length hoses and cables.
