We very much enjoyed our two nights here and would come back. Previous reviews complained about traffic noise and we almost didn't camp here because of it, but it was not a problem. We were aware of a low, constant traffic noise, but it did not bother us. I can't imagine finding a more convenient location at such a bargain rate. I gave an overall rating of 9; it would have been a 10 but some of the sites are too uneven. We could not get our motorhome level. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I found out about this park from this website- I wish I had looked sooner. It is a fine for the money. It was raining when I arrived, so the concrete pad (instead of grass or sand) was great. The sites are decently set apart, but don't have any trees for privacy. The restroom was clean, but old. There is a laundry room that I didn't use. I did take a nice walk around the camp. It can be used for bikes too. There is a strip mall with a supermarket 1/4 mile away - great for picking up items before settling in. The only downside of this park is the traffic noise. I was very aware of the noise, it is loud. We camped here in a Motorhome.

If you ever find yourself in Orlando and want to camp, you must stay at this park. This facility is a City Park. It is so beautiful and awesome. It is very woodsy and lots of trees with lots of shade at your camp site. There are only a few sites with full hook up. We stayed in site 5 and was very happy with it. The camp sites are close to the Lake. It is so peaceful there. They have a swimming pool but it was only open on the weekend. We rented a boat and went fishing on the Lake. Bike riding is at it's best here, with the path being paved and hilly. They have a freebie golf course that is cool. There is also a Farm there with horses, cows, pigs, and billygoats, it's really neat. You are only a few minutes from the stores and restaurants, but in the camp ground you feel like you are in your own world. I would of given this park a 10, but you can't have camp fires there, so I gave it a 9. I would most definitely come back to this park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is the most unbelievable park we've encountered! Beautiful winding drive through oaks and palm trees to a partially shaded 36-site campground. The area was very natural and well maintained. The staff emptied the garbage about 6 times a day. The park is near the interstate, but noise was not too noticeable. It was fantastic to be just a few miles from Universal Studios. Perfect location to play at Universal and them come back to rest and go again. We were on Site #3, just inside the entry, which was a very large site with lots of room all around. Front sites have EW & S ($18); sites closer to the lake have EW ($15). A dump station is available. The gate closed at 7 PM, but you get the code for the padlock if returning after dark. No big deal opening the gate for yourself. Showers were old and desperately needed painting and mirrors. I wouldn't walk in barefoot. I would have rated this campground a 10, except for the showers. No store, but it was so close to everything, it didn't matter. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The City of Orlando has a gem of a campground, with lots of pavilions, fishing area, swimming and outdoor rec areas. I wish it were closer to our home so we could visit more often. It is very affordable and well worth the trip. We will return. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very,very nice. Huge field for walking/playing with the dogs. Large site and quiet. Rangers very helpful and pleasant. Some stations on antenna, but would have liked to have cable. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nasty showers- peeling paint, moldy plastic curtains, filthy. Restrooms were the same. Pool is basically unusable because almost the entire Orando population uses it (this is a City park). That is, Packed. Frissbee golf course is neat (as long as you have plenty of bug-spray). Our site was near the dumping station- foul odor occasionally wafted our way. When we arrived, I spent ten minutes picking up garbage that looked like it have been sitting on our site for several days, at least. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very nice Public campground. The staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay at the park. Very quite and peaceful except for nightly fireworks at nearby Universal studios. Site #14 was level and fairly long; however, it was a water/electric site only. Our 31 foot 5th wheel and tow truck fit nicely. The park is convient to Universal Studios and about 12 miles from Disney World. Downtown Orlando is about 7 miles. 14 day maximum stay. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

A hidden gem, and a top value. Only $15 E/W and 4 miles to Universal. Only drawback was the fact that the sites were not level. Not a big enough drawback to prevent us from staying there again. We arrived without reservations. Attendant on duty til 5pm. After 5 the gate is locked with a padlock. Would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

What a little gem in the middle of Orlando, just minutes from Universal Studios. Some sites are more level than others, some turns are tight. Just take it slow and easy. Lovely sites, trees, some bearing fruit. Nice bathhouse, and a lovely little laundry room with clean working machines. Not much traffic in the campground, it's a bit of a drive from the main entrance, but it's a lovely drive. Our GPS seemed to think that we needed to make a U-turn, but there's now a traffic light at the entrance, so it's not necessary. Quiet at night, and had a lot of people staying there for extended times. We will return, but make reservations early, it's a small park, and a great value! We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here for 10 days while we were visiting Universal Studios theme parks. The campground is only five minutes away from the park!! We were very pleased with the campground and for the price you could not ask for anything better! We really enjoyed the bike path, the orange trees, the lake, the children's farm and the disc golf course! The park is very close shopping, dining and just about anything else that you would need while still in a very natural setting. The bathrooms were clean but old (could use a new paint job). The only downside of this campsite for our family was that they do not allow a camp fire. (It was hard for us to camp for 10 days and not have s'mores!!) We will definately stay here again! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

A natural setting in a nice upscale Orlando location. Easy access to downtown, attractions, and major highways. We had an electric/water only site with a nice level pad. Very tight maneuvering. I did appreciate having 24hr access in a public park but the combo lock on the gate was kinda of a pain - but for the price, this is sure worth a try. Friendly, watchful, helpful staff. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Turkey Lake Park was great. This place is like a 300 acre quiet spot in the middle of Orlando. You truly feel like your miles away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The amenities are excellent for the kids and the parks and pool are huge. The campsites are pretty good but noticed a lot of sites with dirt right were you would normal sit outside your camper (outdoor carpet recommended). The bathrooms and showers were in pretty good shape and the overall appearance and feel of the place would definitely bring us back. Not too bad getting reservations in the off season. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed in one of the full hookup sites(#1-9, 11, 18-21). All others are water electric only (20,30,50 amps) only. All sites have concrete pad only under RV. Sites are not level though. In some cases you will need to bring a step stool because the distance between the ground and the steps can be 18 inches or more. All sites have a picnic table and trash cans are nearby. Park personnel empty the cans at least 6 times a day. There are no grills at sites so you must bring your own - charcoal only though. Bathhouses are old but very clean. There is on site laundry. There are some tight turns to get to the sites but we made it in both a 35 ft 5er and a 35 ft MH. Most sites are in the shade. The park has bike trails, nature trail, children's farm (not petting farm), swimming pool, lake for fishing, ballfield, disc golf, large playground in picnic area. There is no store, but stores are very close by. Park is next to Fl turnpike but road noise was not a problem for us. The picnic area was very busy and noisy, but the campground both times we were there was very quiet. You must call the office to get your reservation nothing on line yet. They do have monthly fees for people who stay in the area for the season. We camped here in a Motorhome.

What a find!! I was thrilled to discover this park. We have annual passes to Universal Studios so we needed to find a place close -- I would say at most it was a 10 minute drive from the campground to Universal's parking lot! And that's through Orlando traffic... This park is nice. It's one of those where you're driving along through businesses and neighborhoods thinking that there is no way there would be a park/campground and then all of a sudden there it is! There is a disc golf course that I found unique, a children's zoo (didn't go in), a nice pool, boat rentals, trails and bike paths. And there seemed to be a lot of locals utilizing the park which is nice to see. The only 'con' was the sites are horribly unlevel. We made it work though and had read other reviews so were ready for that. We just added a step stool so we could easily get to the first step. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a City of Orlando park. Paved roads and paved sites. Most sites are significantly unlevel; many motorhomes had their front wheels off the ground; some RVs had a stool to be able to reach their lowest entry step. It's not easy to access the campground at dark because the park's gate is locked dusk to dawn with a combination padlock; campers are given the lock code. About one third of the sites have sewer connections; most are only water and electric. There is a dump station, but large RVs using it can block the only exit road to the campground. The park is adjacent to the Florida Turnpike so traffic noise is always in the background, although it's not too loud since the campground is about 1/2 mile across Turkey Lake from the Turnpike. Exiting the park to go southbound on Hiawassee Road is difficult because there is no traffic light and this is a busy four-lane urban road. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I would like to start off with the positive. The grounds look great and a very peaceful atmosphere. They take care of trash almost immediately which I thought was wonderful. Nice pool and spa, and the lake view is great. The negative- Parking is absolutely a pain. when grounds are full, good luck trying to get into your OWN spot which you paid for. We were next to cabins and it was more times than none a problem, then to add insult to injury when the park is almost empty I had visitors park near me in empty lots and get tagged with a windshield flyer. Even I was tagged one time for not having my pass in view, and I have been here over a month! My visitor had her foot bandaged up from a recent surgery and her car got a flyer, she cannot walk the 120 feet from the visitor parking. Yet I have to knock on doors when the place is full so I can park in MY spot? Park maintenance seems dangerous, last week a Bobcat dulldozer was driven into the canal over the rotten wood docks. would I come back? I'm not sure, my guests didn't feel welcome when they had someone tag their car( she was parked less than 10 minutes). the laundry machines are overpriced for their size and who wants to buy a $3 20oz milk or $85 quilts from the lake whippoorwill office/store? the 12% tax eats up your KOA discount. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Friendly management - sites in the B section are mostly grass with grass patio. Our site was a mud hole - avoid B-47 - when mentioned to management they just shrugged their shoulders. Apparently the Pioneers (the non-profit Christian owners) is attempting to sell the CG and avoiding maintenance. Other stays have been much nicer but not this time. If not for the convenience of married children and grandson we'd stay somewhere else. We stayed for a week - the rate is a KOA Value Card rate. Wi-Fi is decent with the normal slow periods in the evening. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We're staying here for 4 nights because we wanted to be near Cape Canaveral for the shuttle launch. I do not think we will come back here. The back-in spots are very narrow without space for a car and very uneven, and their Wi-Fi is very slow. For the price I expected better. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very tidy looking, nice canals for launching boats, helpful staff, nearby access to groceries and a few restaurants. Inconsistent wi-fi access during the day that we were there. We had a conflict with them that upset us a fair bit. I won't describe it other than to say that they admitted making a mistake and apologized. They weren't in a position to fix the problem until after we had left, but they quickly made restitution even though it was going to cost them some money. We would definitely stay with them again as we appreciate their integrity. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This KOA is a nice alternative to the closer to Disney, but much more expensive, other parks. Disney attractions are about 25 minutes away. There are nearby grocery and drug stores. Good access and campground roads. The staff and other campers were very friendly and helpful. As other reviewers have said, some of the sites are close together, but there are others that do give you plenty of room, especially if you're on one of the ends. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and will come back again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Not a bad campground, but to visit Orlando attractions it is way out of the way. The sites are too close together. The sites have one unit facing one way, and the next one facing the other way. This way your coach doors are facing each other and so close you can't put out your awning. I could reach out my window and tap on my neighbors window. I would probably stay at another KOA in the area that has more room between sites. We camped here in a Motorhome.
