Recently we have reported problems to the office staff about the pool at the Veranda area at Clerbrook RV Park. Yesterday, the pool was cold again. The office staff was notified..the answer “I thought that was fixed, I’ll tell the manager and report it. Our history with the park goes back to 2000 and our purchase of a membership. This purchase was influenced by the people who RV in the Park and the strong leadership of a visible manager, that knew the people and problems of the area and Park. We bought our Park Model in March 2007 when lot rent was $3000.00 and gas prices were on the rise...the housing market was comfortable. So, what awaited us in May 2008 a lot rent increase of $2000.00 For us we bought into the Park 1. Because of our friends 2. Economical reasons Our problem began with the increase in rent, paying $5000.00 +. The promises made for the improvement of the Park . This is not a ***five star resort***. During our retirement on a fixed income and the economic instability has placed pressure and a strain on the financial outlook. ELS answer is to raise rent, unstable rules in park for special people, and Pools that are not fully functioning. Reporting problems to the office via verbal communications does not seem to help except to place you on a “A” list Do we need to write out all our complaints??? Pool problems: I was surprised at the five couples that came up while I was in attendance...they did not get in the water...when told to report it to the office, the standard answer was WHY, they don’t listen to us. Remote Entrance: Again, we bought in this park March of 2007...and at the time are name was placed on a waiting list for a remote entrance opener. It has been two years...answers over the years...computer blew up...unable to program...lighting strike and a third party needed to repair the opener...it will be here in a month...it will be here in two week, we are working on the problem...!!!!!!! On the other hand it is not uncommon to see the RV entrance gate up...our relatives and friends hassled , even though a entrance note was given to the office or gate... Hot Water: Hot water at Veranda not working We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park had very tight grassy sites. The water pressure was not very good. The electrical outlet was located in the extreme rear of site, we needed a much longer cord to connect. Since we did not have a longer cord, the rear bumper of our 38' motorcoach was over the site behind us. I looked for the pool and did not find it. There were many travel trailers that appeared to be long term. We were very disappointed. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We spent 3 months here last year and really enjoyed our stay and the golf course. To the previous poster, there are 3 clean swimming pools with hot tubs. Our suggestions would be to turn one pool into an adults only pool and that private radios be banned at the pool area, be respectful of other please use your IPOD. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The park was clean and gated. We checked in after 7 and a guard told us which site to take but he had no knowledge of what sites were already occupied. The site he assigned was already occupied. It was on a corner because we are 45' and wanted a large site......they were more. When we got to the site it was no better than the interior sites and not worth paying more for. Grass was practically nonexistent, mostly weeds and sand. Interior roads were wide not the entire park was just old. It was a 1000 Trails Park and still accepts Good Sam and Thousand Trail Card. We would search for something newer next time. We had to check out with the guard at the gate and pay when we left because the office still had not opened. It took a very long time just to pay and go!! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Large sites. Nice pools. We camped here in a Motorhome.

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.

We were booked in a "Super site" and were very happy. Outstanding facilities. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a very nice park. The sites are large, some on pavement, some on gravel but all have grass and the streets are paved. The pools are some of the cleanest we've ever seen. We stayed as Coast to Coast members so the price was good. Quite a drive to major shopping but close to groceries and Walmart and other necessities. There is a $3 a day "Resort" fee at Encore parks which is a rip off but they seem married to it. Hopefully the downturn in the economy will let them know that campers don`t like being taken advantage of. This park has activities so at least you are paying for something if you use them. Not all parks have amenities and still charge the fee. We will definitely come back to this park if we are in the area. (888) 558-5777 We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is under new management. The new manager is making numerous improvements. The bathrooms are clean but very old and need to be updated. We have been here before because of its location. (five miles from Disney World) The park is better than it has been for the past six or seven years. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Camped in 45 foot motor home. Paved interior roads and most sites are paved or gravel. Easy access of US27 and 192. WiFi cost is $4 per day. Sites are widely spaced. Park is near Disney and other attractions. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We have been to this park for short stays or three month winter stays every year since 2000. It used to be a great park. Now it's just an okay park since it has been sold to ELS. The staff is wonderful, but they have no choice but to implement some very dumb rules created by corporate. The worst of the rules is that you can not get a month long stay in this park unless you come in on the first of the month. We have never experienced such a thing in eight years of fulltiming. If you arrive after the first, you can only get a daily or weekly rate. If you wish to stay for the six month winter specials they want to do a background check which means giving up your social security number and other private information. This rule has generated a lot of dissension among the winter regulars. The pool used to be open for evening swimming until ELS took over. They say the pool is closed because of an ordinance, but it seems the reason is because the lighting is insufficient and they won't put in strong lights. For these reasons, we have changed our opinion of this RV park from a 10 to a 5. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The appearence of the resort has been improved and some updates have occured. This resort has a new manager and we have seen many improvements. The resort has a few problems that we hope will be addressed. The problems are: sewer connections are in a poor location, too few washers and dryers for the amount of people, and poor outdated cable tv. We camped here in a Motorhome.

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.

A great park for a state owned facility. It was very friendly with clean sites and bathhouse. Will camp here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

As others have said this is an open campground and there's very little in the way of shade. Sites are gravel and un-level but not bad. Most are narrow but plenty long enough for big rigs. Electric and water only on most sites. Dump station available and convenient. Only one trash drop off site for the entire campground so it can be a bit of a hike depending on where your site is. Park is clean and pretty well maintained with the exception of the weeds between sites and along roads which needed mowing badly. Sunset over Lake Dixie was beautiful. Plenty of hiking and biking trails. Several piers to fish from, and Lake Louisa has a swimming area. Will be back but in the fall, winter or spring. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice park in the middle of citrus area. The orange blossom aroma was wonderful. Sites are nicely spaced but there is little vegetation and it would be very hot in summer. Nice location between two lakes and namesake lake is a short drive away. All facilities were well maintained. Took a day trip over to the east coast and Cocoa Beach area. Timing to watch the landing of the space shuttle was off by a few days. Homossasas Springs and Crystal River a short drive away - beautiful area to visit as well. Would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great campground close to Orlando - 30 min. to Disney & 1 hr to Universal. Wide sites & very easy parking. Just outside the noise of Orlando so the park is very quiet at night. This park has many trails (though they are difficult for bikes - too much sand) but wild citrus trees everywhere (though your not suppose to pick any...oops). This park will get a 10 in the future once the campground has some shade. In December this is not too bad but I'm sure this is a very HOT park in the summer. We'll stay here again when we come to Orlando. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice park but not much to do unless you like to fish. Very sunny, no shade to speak of. Had a site with 50 amp service and sewer which is great for a state park. Well maintained gravel sites with lots of space but no trees so no real privacy. Water view sites would be the best. Very nice fishing piers on several pretty lakes. Would only consider going back to do some fishing in cooler weather. Camping staff was very nice. We camped here in a Motorhome.

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.

Nice park. There is a pool we did not use and we only stayed a week so did not take part in any activities but they are available. Some spots are close to the highway and could be noisy but as RVers we are just used to noise because most RV parks are close to some sort of disturbance. There are no hills so at least you don`t have to listen to rude jake brakes all night. The office staff is very friendly and accommodating. There is a restaurant that serves a wonderful all you can eat chicken dinner on Tuesdays and all you can eat fish dinner of Fridays for a very reasonable price; not to be missed. We will go back when we are in the area. In the listing it is mentioned that it is lake front; this is true if you have a broad definition of lake front. More like a catch basin but it is water. No skiing allowed. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a nice membership park and the price is right. There is a lot of traffic noise especially the rows adjacent to the highway. Staff is extremely friendly. There are good restaurants and grocery shopping nearby. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I've stayed at The Bee's for the last four months and found the manager and their staff extremely pleasant and helpful. The campers were all quite pleasant and friendly, not to mention the Tuesday "all you can eat" chicken dinners and Friday night fish fry were excellent! To be honest, I've never stayed at an official campground prior to this experience, my son and I chose to "rough it". I'll recommend this location to all my visiting friends from NY. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We were pretty happy with this park. You park on grass, and when it rains it's a mess. And the spaces are too close together. And there really is a lot of road noise. But the place has a really nice feel to it and we would definitely stay here again. Plus, it's close to all the Orlando sights. It's a C2C park so we paid $10.00 a night. We camped here in a Motorhome.

BY FAR THE NOISIEST CG WE'VE EVER STAYED AT !!! Avoid all sites in rows A and B - even the others would struggle with the road noise at this CG. WiFi is available at $20/week. We wouldn't come back here because of the noise - even at $8/night. 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, you are 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.

This park has spots for everyone, large, small, open, in the trees, or completely secluded. Grass, concrete or dirt. We had a nice site with a pasture behind us. Many things to do here including pickleball. Personnel were nice and professional. Nice clubhouse and retail store. My only drawback is that people, especially those in golf carts, including park employees, do not observe the 5 mph speed limit. With two pools and a hot tub the sunning was great. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed here for no charge in exchange for listening to a sales presentation to buy a membership. It is a nice campground. The staff was very friendly. We stayed in the wooded area. Our site, #D23, turned into a small river during a downpour one morning. I think our site was the only one with this problem, however. The bathhouses are clean, but need updating. For the price of the full membership (13K), I would expect more updated accommodations. Bike riding is very nice. This is snowbird city, though. I would say at least 80% of the park were snowbirds staying long-term. We were disappointed that there were no recycling containers - so much for going green. We won't camp here again because we did not purchase a membership; however, if this was not a member-only campground, we would return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Excellent park with a lot of activities. Staff is very friendly. Sites are clean and easy access. We received our membership when we purchased our coach at Lazy Days. It was a great move for us because I cannot think of any negatives while staying here. It is within 6 miles of Disney and a lot of businesses close by. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Are some of the buildings "old" looking, yeah, sure, but they are clean inside. Not everything is "new" for some people and just because they are 5-6 years old does not mean they should be torn down and replaced. There is free internet in the big rec room, their is a driving net, there is a trail, there is a lake, this is a quality site and well worth taking the tour and staying free. One of the best things about this CG is the activities that are well attended by the campers. From horseshoes, to pickle ball, to other activities they are all well attended and a lot of fun. If you are looking for a CG with brand new buildings maybe this is not the place for you, if you are looking to have a great time and meet a ton of other campers just like you then this is a great place. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a Thousand Trails park, it is well maintained with lots of activities each day, all amenities we enjoy and a very nice clubhouse to boot. We have stayed here several times and have always had a great time. The park is very large, and some sites are better than others, but have had no problems with either parking or staff. We appreciate the close location to several of our favorite sightseeing places, Disneyworld included. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great Location - easy access to Disney, shopping and tourist traps! Workers were doing landscape work (trimming bushes/trees, etc.) during my stay, and management was having the entry road repaved and other improvements. During this time, there was a major power outage, water and sewer were out of commission for 12 hours or so, but management delivered notices/progress reports to all campers during this time. Gate personnel were wonderfully helpful in giving directions, procedures, etc. I stayed in the D section which was somewhat wooded and seemed very private. Site was level and spacious and there was a Wi-Fi booster at my site so I could access the internet easily from inside my camper. Bath house/laundry was nearby and well maintained. Great activities lined up daily. Pools/spa well maintained and very comfortable. Super Wal-mart and a Winn-Dixie less than a mile away. I enjoyed my stay and will return. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

This is a spectacular park with many activities and a beautiful lake. There is a nice mix of nature and pavement, with something for everyone from young to old. The buildings are all nicely maintained and so are the grounds. The manager is fabulous here. The entire staff is great actually. We look forward to coming back again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed after receiving a invitation to visit the resort and participate in their sales presentation. There was no high pressure sales meeting. The staff of the resort were all very friendly and helped answer questions. However, the resort is very old. The buildings look tired, worn out. The only fresh looking building was the visitor center where the presentation was held and the cottages they offer. The asphalt on the streets and most of the sites is worn and breaking up. Many of the sites are not level (unusual for Florida, but this resort is 136 feet above sea level). The picnic tables are warped and should be trashed. The dock at Lake Hancock inside the resort needs replaced. I would not even think of paying almost $8,000 for a membership at a resort with no free wireless internet or cable at the site. They have free wireless at the activity center, but in a 850 site park it's doubtful you will be close during busy times and might have to drive or golf cart up to the building. Also, we were told choosing sites are first come, first served. The resort was clean and has two huge pools, one for families and one for adults (best thing we observed during 4 days, 3 nights there. If you only need a place to base while you visit the Orlando complexes, it would probably be perfect. The gated entrance with security was a plus, especially with Orlando's terrible crime rate. As you pull out by the security entrance, just don't back up - they have stop bars that would flatten your tires. Would we stay here again, even if we had to pay? No...

This was our first Thousand Trails camping visit and we were thrilled with everything from the time we drove up to the gate until we pulled out. I camped here with my husband and three teens and we all had a great time. The staff was super and the campground was gorgeous. We can't wait to return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a very nice campground the only complaint we had were the RV pads could use a little upgrading but the facilites are excellent and the park is safe and fun. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a membership park with very liberal visiting rights if you are willing to take a tour. The sites range from very sunny to partly shady, but the electric is very good and there is no extra charge to run an AC. If you want 50 amp electric, there are sites available that will not cost extra, but if you want a brand new site in section I with 50 amp, the charge is $2.00 a night. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We have stayed here three times in Dec and Jan. Some roads were dusty(needed rain in area). Very nice pool and hot tub. Staff was friendly and helpful. We like the woods area best, but you can also choose open sunny spaces if you'd like. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very organized, nice people working there, greeted like they wanted us there. Need more 50 amp services. Park very big and easy to get lost without your map. can choose total shade or no shade. you pick your lot. store, ice cream socials, activities, dinners, cookouts, movies for the kids. We camped here in a Motorhome.

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 definitely 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.
