  Upper Hillsborough WMA

  Florida WMA site close to town

  This place has many pros and a few cons... I'll get the cons out of the way first... it is just 3 miles out of Zephyrhills Hills, FL so there is plenty of noise from nearby busy road. A train runs through this property several times a day/night and is loud. It is right next door to a mobile home community and these homes are visible from parts of the campground. Pros? It is close to town if you need something. A train runs through it so not many people come to camp here. There are several picnic tables and firepits. There are 3 port-a-pottie, all clean. It is beautiful, especially deeper in the property along the trails. This is a strictly boondock, pack it out location... no electric, no dump station and only non-potable water via a hand pump at a sink near the staff shack (staff only pr a sent during hunting days). There is. Good mix of sun and shade with a generous oak tree canopy. I could keep my class b in the shade and run my portable solar panels in the sun or keep my rig in the sun as well. Dogs are allowed on leash. There are no numbered sites, just set up where you please, there is plenty of flat spots.I had good cell reception with TMobile. Reservations are required and gate lock code given.Even with the train etc I enjoyed my time there, I REALLY enjoyed having the place to myself all but one day.

  Big Bass Campground - Ocala National Forest

  A Rustic Haven

  Spacious shady sites that offer good privacy are readily available here! Some low hanging overhead branches may cause an issue for larger rigs but I had no problem at 12 feet high. Rustic camping with very clean vault toilets, bear-secure trash bins,water spigots scattered throughout the campground and a dump station with non-portable and portable water right there. A meandering and scenic 30 mile drive off of I 75 definitely takes you off the beaten trail, though there is a bit of road noise that can be heard but not seen from the campground.

  Blue Spring State Park Campground

  Small but very private sites, nature everywhere

  Checked in yesterday and pulled up to a full park. Check in was easy at the front gate . Site 1 is tight for our  29' Class A and it took some blocking to get level. Right rear corner of the lot sits high but not terrible. We took a walk down a trail behind the campground to the springs parking lot and took the campground path back. I will update more as the week goes on. Walked down to the spring and shared videos. No manatees today but I am sure we will see some before the weeks end. Tuesday walk to the spring. Saw two Manatees. Videos loaded here. Cool rainy day had them come back up into the spring. 3 more Manatees today. rained everyday so far but got to see more Manatees. Campground is very quiet except for a rail line that runs just outside the park. 45 minutes from Daytona or Orlando. we have been here since Saturday evening and it in now Thursday.

  Salt Springs Recreation Area

  Definitely a nice place to stay with Spring

  Delete night day with a nice spring. The website looks nice and clean for every size. But we have a small sprinter we didn’t need any water or electricity So we stayed in the tent area, which is much more nature. And the space in between camps are huge

  Lake Louisa State Park Campground

  Great Park near Orlando

  Stayed just one night on March.  Great tent sites and mostly private. Facilities are clean with showers. Water and power at the site. Beautiful walks and lakes, Lots of birds and rabbits.

  Only issue was the early morning traffic on the nearby highway (#27) was noisy.

  Camp Margaritaville RV Resort and Cabana Cabins Auburndale

  Responsible Adults Be Warned

  I'd like to give you the positives. Crisp, clean, manicured, food and bar pretty good, well-appointed amenities. We had a pretty good week, having found a quiet pool area. Saw a bald eagle and a swallow-tail kite. I’d like to tell you about that, but that’s not the review.

  Here’s the review: if you book here, you will be checking into a bizarre combination of tropical paradise, tailgate party, spring break, and a middle school playground. On St. Patrick's Day, we had been doing some sightseeing. We came back to our site, and the folks who had arrived behind us fired up their music. I don't have a problem with music or other noise prior to"quiet time," so long as it's not over the top. This was way over the top. Kim was on the phone with the nursing home about her 91-year old mother and she couldn't hear the other end of the call.

  We called Security and asked for help, they came around and talked to the offenders. Whereupon the offenders started yelling around"who complained about our music?" And, they sent their preteen daughters on their bicycles going around and asking"did you complain?” Let's just say it was downhill from there. They jacked the volume even more, and started taunting us. Kim lost her temper and started yelling at them to quiet down. They responded by threatening her. She told me to call security, but since they hadn’t helped, and the on-duty rent-a-cop had no interest in helping, I called 911(which the campground rules said to do in an emergency). Apparently, that was a mistake. The rent-a-cop was pissed off that we called 911 when he was supposed to already be on top of it(which he wasn't). So there was a conclave of police cars, and the night manager, and the three large guys from the offending site, etc.

  Bottom line: management demanded that WE leave, in half an hour, or be arrested. It’s 10:30 pm, and I told the rent-a-cop that I was in no shape to drive. “Figure it out,” he said, and walked away. So two 70-year olds had 30 minutes to get everything packed up and drive to some alternative place.

  While we were striking the site, the kids at the offending site were chanting"we won, we won." And they started playing"Hit the Road You Jack" quite loud. And the adults were yelling"we're Republicans. We can do whatever we want." They noted our Maine license plates and told us to"go back to Canada where you belong."

  We ended up in a wicked expensive hotel in the next town over, paying spring break prices($340 a night!!). And we lost the cost of two nights at the campground.

  So if you’re a party animal, this may be your kind of place. Just don’t complain about anything, or you will be asked to leave.

  It’s interesting to note which rules are enforced and which aren’t. For instance, there’s a poolside bar, and lots of signs between the bar and the pool saying“no food or drink beyond this point.” Not only was there lots of food and drink around the pool, there were wait staff taking orders and delivering it.

  In retrospect, the fact that they have a rent-a-cop cruising the premises every night should have been a red flag. I’ve never seen that before, but apparently they expect rowdiness. They just don’t want to deal with the negative repercussions.
