Best Campgrounds near Dundee, FL

Dundee, Florida provides access to several established campgrounds with diverse accommodation options within a 30-mile radius. Camp Margaritaville RV Resort and Cabana Cabins in Auburndale offers both RV sites and cabin rentals, while Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground provides tent camping, RV hookups, cabins, and glamping experiences. The central Florida location puts campers within reach of Orlando's attractions while still offering natural settings around lakes and wooded areas. Most campgrounds in the region feature full hookups for RVs, with several also providing tent camping areas and cabin rentals for those seeking more comfort.

Reservations are essential for most developed campgrounds in the Dundee area, particularly during winter months when snowbirds migrate to central Florida. The region experiences hot, humid summers with frequent afternoon thunderstorms from June through September, while winters remain mild with temperatures rarely dropping below freezing. Many campgrounds in the area are open year-round, though summer heat can be challenging without adequate shade. Lake Kissimmee State Park Campground offers both drive-in and walk-in sites with electric hookups and water, though limited shade can be an issue. As one camper noted, "Lake Louisa is located on the edge of the Orlando metropolitan region. Close to Disney but accessible to other area attractions and communities."

Campers consistently highlight the natural beauty of the area's lakes and rolling terrain as standout features. Oak Hammock Resort provides boat-in access along with traditional camping options, making it popular for water recreation enthusiasts. Several visitors mention the unique topography of the region, with Lake Louisa State Park receiving praise for its unusual rolling hills in otherwise flat central Florida. A reviewer described it as "the only hilly area of Central Florida. The pine forests here make you think you might not be in Florida." Mixed-use campgrounds like Orlando/Kissimmee KOA balance proximity to attractions with natural settings, offering tent sites, RV hookups, cabins and glamping options. Most developed campgrounds provide amenities like swimming pools, planned activities, and recreation halls, making them suitable for family camping experiences.

    Camp Margaritaville RV Resort and Cabana Cabins Auburndale

    So fun! Huge sites!!

    Margaritaville is so clean & spacious!! The store has so much great stuff and there is always entertainment. They even have a big farmers market on Sundays with tons of vendors. There are two big pools (the back one is quiet) with bars, yummy drinks and good food. They are pet friendly & have dog poo stations along the roads. Very close to a long biking trail & there’s a gas station near the entrance. Beautifully landscaped & friendly staff.

    Lake Kissimmee State Park Campground

    Laid back camping

    Nice spot to just get away and relax. Lots of hiking trails and some wildlife. Deers all around even among the campsites. Some tours available close by for airboats. We will be back here again.

    Upper Hillsborough Water Management Area

    Very quiet and peaceful

    We were the only ones there for the weekend, probably because of the summer heat. However, it was nice and free. There is a porta-potty, but I didn’t check it out, so I’m not sure about the cleanliness. The grounds were nicely maintained, though. I do wish the fire rings weren’t so damaged, and the lack of trash cans was surprising. Just take your trash with you, leave no trace, and it was an enjoyable and free experience!

    Encore Sherwood Forest

    Tent camping spring trip

    I booked this for a first time car camping with my 4 year old. The tent spots are ok just placed on corner spots with traffic. The spot I got was close to restroom with kids is a must if you don’t have other options. Front people were nice and tried to help. Got rained out of my check out time. Had to extend check out.

    Oak Hammock Resort

    Beautiful campground

    Very welcoming, clean and well kept park. The owners were very friendly and communicative. There’s a store on site that I bought a T-shirt from and also a little game room that we enjoyed with pool and air hockey. I stayed by the pond where is was quiet but you might encounter a water puppy.

    LeLynn RV Resort

    Lakefront RV Pitstop Stone's Throw From I4

    Located just 45 minutes SW of the Magical Kingdom conveniently resting just a stone’s throw from I4, LeLynn RV Resort is a spacious, pet-friendly property that is definitely more geared for the RV driving or 5th wheel toting crowd. Surrounded by lakes in every direction – Little Lake Agnes sits directly west of the property, with its bigger sister Lake Agnes just further northwest, Lake Tennessee to the southwest, Lake Juliana to the south and Lake Mattie to the southeast, while Lake Helene can be found to the north and a smaller unnamed lake due east a smidge.  If you were surrounded by any more water, you'd be starring opposite Kevin Costner in 'Waterworld!'

    While LeLynn RV Resort will accommodate you for about as long as you’d like, this place impressed upon me more of a layover than an actual destination. The community that we discovered here was incredibly friendly and inviting, but nearly everyone we met was enroute to some other, better place in the great Sunshine state ... and quite a few folks look like they have no business moving from this place any time soon. This RV depot somewhat lives up to its name as a resort as it does offer an inground pool that is lake facing (again, not that challenging to do here in Central Florida) along with decent (not excellent) restrooms & shower facilities, laundry-O-mat, boat ramp, metered LP gas, dump station, shuffleboard and horseshoes along with WiFi and cable TV options. If you desire kayaking, canoeing or fishing, you need only access the nearest lake of your choosing. There’s 220 sites with FHU’s offering 30 / 50 amp electric, water and sewage.

    Insider’s tips? Here’s a handful: (1) IMHO the best sites are those that are lakefront on the property’s northwestern most perimeter; (2) While the parking accommodations are concrete pads that will provide a nice level plain for the stay along with a solid accompanying patio, there’s virtually no trees and hence shade anywhere on the property, so while that might not matter for a single night, if staying longer, you’ll likely want to bring your own shade with you; (3) Should you need to load up on supplies while on your trip, just due south of LeLynn RV Resort is a Publix that will cater to all of your grocery needs; and (4) While you’ll feel like you’re out in the boondocks in these parts (and trust me, you are), there’s a number of great little eateries like The Back Porch, Frescos Southern Kitchen, Purple Pit Stop, Polk City BBQ Co., Savage Tacos and Old Man Frank’s to choose from.

    Happy Camping!
