Winter Garden, Fl.

We stay at stage stop, nothing fancy but plum adequate for our needs and the price is reasonable and normally you don't need any reservation to get in. Their website has a drone view of the park. Both are within a couple blocks of each other.

We stay at Clerbrook Golf and RV Resort in Clermont.

FWIW you can park your toad by the water tower and Harry & Larry's BBQ was pretty good two blocks away. We were at Thousand Trails at Clermont.

As a native of Orange County "explore the city" kinda boggles my brain. The downtown area has its crowd of hipsters on the weekend but that's about it. Stage Stop is the unatractive park.

Why in the world would you pick Winter Garden?

Per Mapquest, Wekiwa state park is 16.5 miles from Winter Garden. I've stayed there twice and enjoyed it. Sites 1 - 28 are full hookup.

Fort Wilderness is only 20 - 30 minutes away!

Winter Garden was a recommendation in the Florida Rambler a few months back. A bicycle trail that runs through town is another activity on our list.

The bicycle trail doesn't just run through Winter Garden. It runs across a large part of Florida. Some of it is woodsy, some of it goes dead center through the cities. Winter Garden would not be my choice, either.

I'm looking for a campground in/nearby Winter Garden, Fl. My wife and I want to explore the city and bike the trail running through the city. Would like pool, wifi, and full service and close to bike trail. The ratings on the two parks in Winter Garden itself are not very good. Any ideas that you are willing to share are certainly welcome.

Look at Bill Fredricks County park at Turkey lake,nice little park,but not fancy..off Hiwassee RD south
also,Winter Gardens RV Resort is just a old KOA cmpground right on rt 50..clean and neat but not fancy or a resort..actually an Encore park now

Come up a little North and see the Rainbow Springs. Amazing crystal clear blue waters.

The just finished extending the bike trails thru this area.

And at least you will be able to visit the Rainbow Springs River in the area which are just down right amazing. Rent a kayak/canoe/snorkle and do the river when you are not biking!! Tons of CG's in this area and some along the river and state parks all close by.

CG offshoot of the state parks is right on the head springs of the river located at https://www.google.com/#tbm=lcl&q=campground+18185+sw+94th+street+in+dunnellon+fl&rlfi=hd:;si:4001674527468299572;mv:!1m3!1d8752.209308510695!2d-82.42969135!3d29.09513005!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i202!2i241!4f13.1

Will check out Rainbow Springs. Looking at Wekiva SP as well.
