Very nice park, clean with good water pressure and electric. Wi-Fi is $5.00 a day, we didn't try it. No shade. Most sites are grass with a concrete pad. No table provided. They now will not accept Passport America until after April 1st, even though their sign out front states differently. Lady at desk said the owner is thinking of dropping P/A all together. Over all the park is in a good location for visiting the Punta Gorda area. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

For the money this park was a good three day stay for us using our Passport America membership. The park had a comfortable feeling for the 55 and above set. I do not recommend the pay wireless that is available as they have it configured to slow down access the more you use it. The WI-FI is probably the single biggest negative to an otherwise pretty nice park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great park. Nice pool, terrific new staff. Right on a canal, with boat ramp and dock. Fishing right here, saw a Manatee swim right by every day! Awesome clubhouse with tons of amenities. This is a very nice park, lots of full-timers but newer park models make it very cozy. Some construction on road, but temporary, if you don't mind the noise they discount those sites by 50%. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This ENCORE park is neat and tidy, the staff is very helpful and friendly. An escort will direct you to the assigned site and help you get aligned and ready to setup. The interior roads are paved and in good condition, just narrow and one way. Nearly all the sites have paved patios and all full hookups. Cable TV is available with Comcast but you have to sign a contract to get access, so it didn't seem worth it. This is the off season in Florida and the park was nearly vacant. There is highway construction on Burnt Store Road, however, there was no noise to deal with. A NOTE here: Burnt Store Road will be closed between FL-41 and Acline Road beginning 5-9-11 and will remain closed for the rest of 2011 to replace the bridge over Alligator Creek. Access to the park will not be affected, the detour will be using Acline Rd off FL-41 to reach the park. The pool, hot tub, spa, clubhouse, restrooms, laundry and showers are sparkling clean. There are some cosmetic repairs needed, otherwise this park would easily rate even higher. Monday through Friday the park maintenance people pick up your garbage at the curb. We would return if we are ever in the area in the future. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Excessively noisy for the price. We were here for two weeks in the 2nd row from the road and from Monday to Friday all we heard was the sounds of construction from across the street. There were machines moving and pounding pylons, constant beeping sounds from machines backing up etc. There was dust blowing across the road all the time. When the workers went home they turned on very loud generators to run pumps, so that when there was no work being done, we still heard constant noise from the massive generators. The office people lied to us when we asked what was the construction for. They said a retention pond was being build. Later we discovered that in addition to the pond, new sewers, an extra lane, and new concrete power poles were being build along 4 miles of roadway. This is a huge project that will take a long time. I walked over to the seventh row in the park before the noises became minimal. They have a nice park here, with lots of activities, the people are friendly, but they won't reduce the price because of these terrible noise conditions from the heavy construction. One day I went into the office and overheard a phone call. Someone was calling in and asking about Punta Gorda RV Park (which is nearby) and I heard the Encore lady say " I have no idea where that park is, but I can take your reservation here." She quoted them full rate and took the reservation. Oh, and if you go to the pool, you will hear the construction sounds because it's right near the roadway. The activities are great and every good thing this park had was spoiled by the construction. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Rate reflects one week at the Passport America rate and one week at the Good Sam rate. This was a quiet, clean park. There are a couple older, permanent trailers here but they are kept up. The clubhouse was active with bingo, karaoke, movie night and other activities. Overall this is very nice park. The only negatives I could add would be that there are not very many 50 amp sites, which wasn't an issue for us, and the sites are narrow. I would have rated this place higher if it weren't for those two things. We stayed here on an end site (151) in a 40' fifth wheel and would stay again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We reserved a certain site two months in advance, they did not honor our reservation. We were put in the worst site of the campground. We got to look at the garbage dumpster, a makeshift work area and piles of split wood. We did move to a new site which was much better, but we had the inconvenience of moving. WiFi: I suggest you buy the most expensive, I didn't and could not get internet most of each day. If you have a dog, beware in warm weather. Behind the campground rattlesnakes are seen. We camped here in a Motorhome.

No review for this one in awhile, so thought I'd chime in. We stayed here because the price was right for a FL winter, and it was a last minute reservation. There were no dogs roaming free, no pet waste, and the management seems competent but somewhat aloof. There are just a handful of 50amp sites out of the 300. There seems to be some activities on a regular basis if you are so inclined, but we were not. Our main complaint is that the drainage in this park is very poor, so with big rains areas of it floods. We had water up to the bottom of our rims at times. A few of the 50amp sites are a bit higher - just don't be in the sites that back up to the drainage ditches! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park is around a pond, 1 mile walk around. We stayed for 1 month (960mo) residents all wave and say hi but beyond that you're part of the clicks. Not many park models but many lot "owned'. No true activities director, few planned events and some cancelled because there weren't enough "owners" attending. Airport right next door with small planes flying 200 feet over head all day long. We will look else where next year. They also add electric than a admin. charge of 6 bucks and then another charge of 6.25 for?. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This 55+ park/resort is surrounded by a lake, and situated in an industrial area and beside an airport! Between commercial trucks, cars and airplanes, it is very, very noisy. Restrooms, shower and laundry facilities and the park itself is clean and tidy. The pool is heated with hot tub. Wi-Fi is extra, no cable TV. Mostly owner sites which are well kept. Rentals are on grass and the park is attempting to sell. People are extremely friendly, but found the small clubhouse empty except for activities. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a relatively new and very clean and tidy park. Most guests are retirees who live seasonally in RVs or park models, but several dozen unsold spaces are available to transients. These spaces are on grass in the sun. The park is in a quiet rural area (and it can be hard to find). The clubhouse hosts activities such as pancake breakfasts (quite good), pot lucks, crafts, movies, bingo, socials, etc. The pool was heated during our visit (February), and there is a fruit & vegetable market each morning. People are especially friendly. We enjoyed our stay very much and extended it twice. We camped here in a Motorhome.
