Large sites with small table. We had internet/TV from our satellite. Swimming pool and hot tub in each section (3). Post Office, beauty shop, library, exercise room, pro-shop on site. Fishing area. If you are into golf, this is the place. We aren't but enjoyed our stay. Personnel nice. Sandhill cranes walking around the park. We would return. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The rating of 5 was given primarily because this park contains many, many park models, some of which are rather old and we prefer parks which do not sell out to park models; therefore, upon arrival we weren't happy. But to be fair to the owners, the park appears to be well maintained and the sites are relatively large. Although we eagerly anticipated playing golf, the sheer number of people here requires that tee times be made several days in advance so we didn't bother as we'd only be here a week. The golf course looked rather small. The site which we had been assigned had some low hanging tree branches and we were unable to park there; however, the guard on duty in the gatehouse (office is closed on weekends)was very happy to drive us around and allowed us to choose another site. This campground is not our style and we will not be back even though the daily rate is very reasonable through Coast to Coast. We camped here in a Motorhome.

HEAVEN We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The sites here are sand/grass. A few had "sink in" problems! Some sites are seriously unlevel. The only problem on our site was that the sewer had to run uphill to dump!! Although this is a golf resort park, we enjoyed a week there without playing golf. We would likely stay again if in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park has gone steadily downhill during the past 5 years since Mr. Caldwell resigned. The park grounds are a mess. The staff is indifferent. No one cares like he did. Was just there. It is so sad to see what happened to a once-beautiful resort. We camped here in a .

We stayed in the lifestyles area for 8 nights in February. Our site was not very level, and pretty crowded as the motorhome on our right side had backed over the sewer connection so it was directly under his unit. Then, he had two large slides on our side that took up another three feet of our site. We were barely able to have room to park a small car on our site. The bathrooms and showers were old, but clean. The showers were large and had a seat to put your things. The golf course was OK, but short and very busy. We couldn't get a tee time for the first 3 days we were there. We ended up playing Swiss Fairways all but one day. This could be a 10 if they had cable TV to all of the sites. (They had cable to a few of the sites. We figured it was the permanent sites that had cable). Also if they had someone go around and make sure that people didn't take too much of their neighbors site. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The camp ground is nice but the people speed around the park and nothing is done about it. We arrived and picked a site on the golf course. This was a nice spot until we stepped in dog poop that a lot of people do not pick up. We set up all of our out door stuff and then we were told by the golf ranger we should move or we will get hit by bad golf shots, and no one but us will care. We did not move fast enough only to be hit on the roof of our motorhome. As the golfer looked for his ball. I told him it was over at the next site. He picked it up and said did I hit your roof, i said yes you did and he said NOOOOTHING not even sorry. The management staff are nice but should be more aware of bad sites. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Clerbrook has been sold several times and each time it drops in service. We've wintered there for 6 years and this year was the worst. Service staff is barebones as there are not enough personnel to do all the required work. Grounds are not kept up, bathrooms are old and in need of repair. Office staff is surly and the office is understaffed. Rates $30/day and $500/month. This park has gone from a 5 star to a maybe 1 star. This pertains to the park only, residents and activities are top notch. There is spirit of comadarie and newcomers are welcomed with open arms. There is an active softball league, shuffleboard league, and golf league. There are exersize classes, sewing classes, and an excellent wood shop. The golf course is being upgraded and though difficult because of the water hazards, quite well used. Park has three clubhouses, three sporadically heated pools and each offer different atmospheres. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This park has 1250 sites, about 60% are park models or personal sites. Place was not full in April time frame. Staff and people were very friendly. Lots of people on golf course - 18 hole. I see from past post sites are not family type. This place had a lot of equipment for the kids to play on. In winter months kids would not be here. Some kids in park in April. I did not see a problem with fire ants, you have fire ants in all southern states. We have more fire ants at home (FL) that here. In south end of park you have lot of shade trees to park under. Cable TV was not in our zone but I see new cable TV boxes in ground. Telephones service on some sites. Not a bad place to go. I did notice the lawns need to be cut around own sites. Park has three swimming pools to play in. Some trees were low over the roads. Our $14.00 rate was on passport. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed in this campground in October 2002 in a travel trailer which we left there and have gone back once a month for short "vacations". We love staying there. Everyone is very friendly, staff and residents alike. We had no problems with ants as someone else mentioned they did. Our two girls enjoy spending time there and walking/biking through it. It's is located close enough to Orlando so you can enjoy all the activities without paying premium prices for accomodations. We definately will return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Park had a lot of things to offer, however, we stayed there under Passport America, in 2002. We had to pull in, get registered, then park in a parking lot and take our tow to find a place to park. We found a spot that was quite nice, however, the sewer wasn't working. We found out later that there were a lot of sites where the sewer wasn't working. We found it rather annoying that we had to our find our own spot, especially in a park that size. There were alot of sites that had overgrown trees with low branches. This year,we called them to see if things might be different if we were to spend a month. We did not feel that the rates they were charging for a month justified STILL finding your own site, especially for a month. We are from WI and if you want to stay at a great park in the summer in WI, with an escort to your site, stay at Country Roads in Wisconsin Dells/Lake Delton. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed there in off season - October 2002. Pretty empty. Sites were somewhat level, no pads either, but the single worst part, and the reason for the 6 rating, were the fire ants - they were everywhere, mounds upon mounds. We, and the dogs, got bit several times and they got into everything. The 'fishing lakes' were a joke. The best places to fish were on the golf course and no fishing allowed there. We will not stay there again unless they can assure us that the ants have been taken care of. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Spent the last two winters here. Three pools with hot tubs, golf course, three clubhouses and lots of activities (morning to night including dances and shows). Close to all attractions and City of Orlando. Gets full in Dec. and Jan. but other times not too full. We camped here in a camper.

This park was so nice, quiet and clean, the staff was very friendly. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Grounds very well taken care of and spacious sites. Office staff very cordial. Computer room, tables and sparkling pool were all appreciated. Passport accepted. My big gripe is that you need 40' of sewer line to reach the connection. I had to back up, before leaving, so my 20' of sewer pipe could dump. All the concrete sites seem the same with the sewer connection right next to the road. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Unfriendly staff. The pool was closed. The clubhouse was closed. The park as a whole was not very clean. The bathrooms and showers were very clean. The site design is poor. All of the utilities are at the rear of the site. We camped here in a Motorhome.

For starters - the reservation system did not work but they had a site for us anyway.The staff at the gate FIXED IT. I'm sure it would have been a different story if it was a busy time of year. Paved streets, limited cable channels, no shade and Passport America only on the gravel sites. The north pool was very nice/clean but the patio's were a mess of leaves and debre and broken gates. The bathrooms were very clean. The sites are adequate with lots of common open space. The dumpster location is an issue and we found it as we exited outside the main gate. We would stay again We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Although not a horrible RV Park, this place can hardly be described as anything more than okay. The check-in office is also the guardhouse so we waited outside in the blistering August heat to pay and get parked. We asked for a pull-thru since we were just staying overnight. What a joke... All utility connections are at the rear of the site so when you pull through you can't reach water, sewer or electric. The concrete patio and picnic table are to the rear also so we had to disconnect our Jeep, move the coach back to the rear and park the Jeep in front. So why call this a "pull-thru"??? Blistering heat yet the pools were closed... 467 sites but only one dumpster at the entrance... this is neither a pretty or well designed park. I say, keep driving, this place needs HELP. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a great park. We are fulltimers and have spent at least two weeks each year there. We spent three months there in 2005. However, a recent query to reserve a site for a week in December 2005 indicated that their rates have gone out of site. A pullthru site is now $252 for one week. A standard gravel site is now $240 for one week. Although we love this park, that is way too much for a campsite for one week. Sadly, we will not camp there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We really loved this campground. We have stayed at Encore Resorts before and they all have such high standards. Sandy the manager is really wonderful. We arrived after hours and recieved help from a Camp Host. They have 2 pools,hot tub, 2 laundry rooms, kiddie pool, and a great clubhouse. I did notice older people starting to come in for the winter, but there were a lot of families as we got closer to Thanksgiving. We would definatly stay again. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

We camped here in Sept. 2003. First we had a hotair balloon land next to us - within 20 ft. Management did not let us know this might happen, "Oh, they landed next to my park model once too!" This provided little comfort. But the biggie was when a mower scratched the side of our bedroom slide. Encore passed it off to the mowing company to whom they subcontract. Management at the park took the side of the mowing company. Even when I called Encore headquarters, they blew me off. The bottom line: Encore refuses to take any responsibility even though it happened in their park. Beware of Encore! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This could be a very lovely park BUT.....They cater to large groups and do not control the noise or even care about anyone else. Dogs are allowed to bark, dig up the sites, and are left unattended. The staff has a I don't care attitude. They seem empathetic but nothing is done to solve a problem. After hours there is no one to contact. We have stayed there previous years but the appearance of the park has gone downhill. Only 8 washers and dryers for a park of over 300 sites. We will never stay there again. We camped here in a camper.

Our FMCA club has had a couple of rallys here and the place is very nice. The staff is friendly, the sites are level and spacious and the view around the lake is very nice. I think it used to be called Secret Lakes RV but Encore is buying up a lot of RV Resorts in this area and this is just one of them. We camped here in a camper.

Very clean and well maintained. No shade as trees aren't big enough yet. Very breezy when we were there - couldn't use awning. Sunset over lake was beautiful. We camped here in a Motorhome.

An excellent park that we would definitely stay at again. Easy to pull into, well cared for sites, and friendly staff. Approx. 30 minutes from Magic Kingdom. Nightime sky is terrific. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a lovely state park. The campsites are extremely spacious. The campground is situation between two beautiful lakes. Each lake has a dock. There are numerous hiking trails and horseriding trails. There is a swimming area; however, I would recommend driving your vehicle to the largest lake which allows swimming as it is quite a distance from the campground area. There are informational sessions with the Park Rangers during the weekends, which we thoroughly enjoyed. We will be returning in April. I would have given this campground a 10---only there is very little shade at the camp sites; but, they have landscaped and in a few years this will be exquisite. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice park enclosing six lakes used to be a citrus orchard, some citrus trees remain. Sites were clean, level and decently spaced; we have a 30 ft class A. The spacing is especially important because there is no greenery whatever that provides any privacy or visual separation from your neighbors; the campground area is very open. Bathrooms and showers are clean and new looking but chilly on a cool day. We were happy to find laundry facilities with one washer and one dryer. There are a handful of full hook-up sites in two of the loops. There are fishing piers on two lakes near the campground and the beach area is very nice. The dump has two stations and is easy to access. The cabins looked really great. The park was quite busy during our stay and seemed full every night but was quiet. Overall this was a good camping experience but we really prefer more wooded sites with some shade and privacy. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park was a disappointment and surprise after we saw the pictures on their web page. The place needs lots of work. The pool was just a square hole in a cement pad, pool chairs were few and dirty. Mini putt, if you can call it that, well the green is now gray. The roads are gravel, and the picnic tables were so old and rotten one did not dare sit on them. The sites are very small and there were many eye-sore trailers in the park. The restaurant smelled good but after one night there we did not stay to find out. The main road construction with blowing sand and noise wasn't what we expected and this made it difficult getting around the area. A nice area to see. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The staff at Bee's is extremely unorganized. They get reservations mixed up and re-rent without notice to you after they have already been paid. They do have a pleasant phone voice though and are good at collecting your money, but they never seem to know anything if you actually need info or help with anything and then act put out if you do ask for something. If you do happen to have a problem after hours, your completely on your own. The place looks a little shabby when you pull in as the grounds don't look like they are kept up. They do not accept credit cards, only cash or check. They do Not confirm reservations or return phone calls. This has happened several times to us with them. We had to make follow up calls after sending our check to see if the reservations were valid. The bathroom and bath house were fairly clean during our last stay, and we did enjoy the small pool they have, as it was clean. Their food is also good on the Tues. and Fri. specials they have, but I'm not impressed with how its served like a prison style chow line where they give you plastic utensils and put all the food directly onto a cafeteria tray without the use plates. The pictures on the website sure isn't how the place looks now. The activities areas for the shuffle board and miniature golf and other games really are just horrid looking and in bad shape. Our last visit to the Bees's RV resort was in 04. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Good point: The resturant at the campground has good food. Bad points: This is more of a mobile home park than it is a campground. About 75% of the sites are year round rentals. Cable hookups are shared between sites. Sites are not level. Sites are very close together. Pull through sites have trees in the way of pulling through easy. Noisy traffic from US 27 and the toll road. The one restroom/bath house is located by the office, not in the main camping area. Its a long walk. The plaground is dangerous and should not be used. Unsafe and falling apart. They do not take cradit cards. Check or cash only. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We've stayed here quite a bit, both in and out of season,since it is close to family. Management is NOT friendly or helpful. Roads and sites need improvements. It is VERY quiet which is nice. Rangers need to be a bit more helpful. It is a bit hectic during the "snow bird" season. They do have a lot of permanent type spots. We do like the "country" feel. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Love this park. It's close to Disney and has everything you could wish for. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We have stayed at a little more than half the Thousand Trails parks around the country in the last four years. This one is far and away the best of all of them. Don't buy a membership thinking they are all this nice. However, if you like camping under trees and are happy with 30 amp service, you will probably be happy at the other parks in the system. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a huge, nice TT. Close to Disney World and many other places. WiFi is available only in the clubhouse with no charge. We have stayed here many times and will be back. Why I rated it down is there was broken up plastic around our site and a broken up picnic table with planks missing. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The park is very nice. It is made almost like a resort. The staff was friendly and so was the manager. It is located near Disney World and Kissimmee. My family had a great time here and so did our guests who stayed in the trailer rentals. It is definately a place to go but even with that said I would rather go to thier other campground Peace River located in Wauchula. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a huge park and 9 miles from Disney. We requested and received a pull thru, not realizing that pull thru sites are literally against each other. We had to help direct our neighbor in and we had to coordinate our efforts so that our slides didn't hit each other. We plugged into the same electric pole. Back in sites were a normal space apart with more breathing room, even though there were no trees on the majority of the sites. Roads are asphalt, but cracked and uneven in places. Sites are mostly level, but not private at all in most places. Private sites can be found in the "wilderness" section of the park which is wooded, but is only a very small section of the park. There is a lake with a beach, but no swimming allowed. Canoes are free. Dock is in disrepair and seems unsafe. Adult and Family pool areas extremely clean and nice. Lots of activities on site. Clean restrooms. Everyone was friendly. Easy big rig access with no overhanging branches. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Large park in central Florida near Disney World. Lots to do in area. Park is easy to get around in and big rig friendly. Restrooms and showers very clean and available. Had only 2 modem hookups in activity center. Not enough for a park this large. Unless you got there during the dinner hour or at 5 AM, you had to wait to check your e-mails. Everything was set up very efficiently. Will definately return again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This membership-only park is a mixed bag of good and not-so-good. Spacious and intelligent layout-there is something for everyone's needs: a shady area, a 50-amp area, near Activity Center area. Country-feeling but near Everything. Great weekend amenities and food availability during season. The not-so-good: I visited in 2002 AND 2003 and there was only ONE payphone in the entire park! No cable TV-seems a bit rugged in this day and age and for the price and general level of the camground amenities. Modem stations in Activity Center but no one knew of any plans for hookup at site, despite huge snowbird population. Can't imagine what the snowbirds will do with only ONE payphone in the entire park. People seem to think that it is OK to walk across RV sites to the Activity Center--recommend don't get one of these sites! I might try another place next time-this one seems to be piling up the not-so-goods over time... We camped here in a Motorhome.
