Under municipal management by the City of Apopka, Camp Wewa operates as a drive-in campground with full amenities including restrooms, showers, and drinking water. The facility sits removed from main roads, requiring attention to roadside signage to locate the entrance. Previously operated by the YMCA, the grounds feature cabins, an Olympic-sized swimming pool, and climbing walls alongside traditional camping areas.

Campers can access hiking trails that wind through the surrounding north-central Florida vegetation. The campground provides campfire rings, trash service, and ADA accessibility. Cell service reaches the area, and reservations are available for planning visits to this municipally-managed facility.

Backwoods Camping Respite

The YMCA, who previously ran this campground, recently returned ownership and management back to the township of Apopka.  The grounds are stashed far enough away from civilization that makes this place a real find.  In fact, had it not been all the Camp Wewa signs along the road, I would have never arrived to this destination.  Basically, whatever you can conjure up for a summer camping experience for kid campers this place has in spades.  There's a (nearly Olympic-size) swimming pool, vertical climbing walls, free-standing cabins and plenty of trails to keep you occupied as the surrounding nature invite you to partake in its green, verdant jungle-like area of north-central Florida.  Call ahead for reservations.

Happy Camping!
