Lots of activities
Pricey but it's Disney. Lots of activities to do at the campground without going to the parks. Clean and well maintained campsites and bathrooms. The roads are narrow in the loops and the sites can be difficult to get into. Pet friendly with dog parks and trails.

Hole In One For this RV Parking Course
It’s not common to find a spot that you can plant your RV on and go out to hit the links for the day all in the same location, but here at Clerbrook Golf & RV Resort you can hit par on both fronts. Located right off Route 27 just due west of Lake Apopka in central Florida, Clerbrook offers nearly 300 acres of prime landscape that posits 1200+ RV slots for your parking and vacationing pleasure. Here you’ll be able to perfectly blend a golfing oasis that blends its RV offering complete with lush vegetation, interconnecting ponds and narrow canals all surrounded by ancient Oaks draped with Spanish Moss.
As far as amenities goes, Clerbrook does not disappoint. Here’s just a small list of all the great amenities you’ll find: Welcome Center, Heated Swimming Pools, BBQ and Picnic tables, Planned Activities, Clubhouses, Billiard Room, Card Rooms, Post Office, Fishing Area, 18 Hole Golf Course with Pro Shop (note: first 9 holes are complimentary with a visit to the Pro Shop), Exercise & Fitness Center, Horseshoe Pits, Recreation Hall, Laundry, Shuffleboard Courts, Library, Nature Walks, Pets Welcome, Picnic Pavilion, Driving Range, Dog Park, Wood Shop, Basketball Court, Playground, Restrooms & Showers, Softball Field, Hot Tub, RV Storage, complimentary WiFi, Arts and Craft Classes as well as Live Entertainment on the weekends. Of course, for RV’ers you can expect both back-in and pull-through slots with all of the traditional water, sewage and electric (30 / 50 amp) hook-ups.
Insider’s tips? Here’s a few: (1) If you’ve got wine on your mind (and why wouldn’t you when on holiday?!), just meander a few miles south of Clerbrook and you’ll discover a fairly respectable winery called Lakeridge Winery & Vineyards offering tours and tastings featuring Muscadine grapes (apparently a prominent grape varietal down in these parts known for their antioxidant qualities; (2) When you get tired of fixing every meal from your mini-fridge or cooler, then you’ll have to head south to Clermont where you’ll find PeruRican Ceviche, which for these parts is pretty outstanding and if you are still longing for pizza, check out Mamma Rita’s Pizzeria for some good pies and pasta; and (3) If nature is calling and you want to get out for a good hike, then head due south to Hiawatha Preserve that has a few dog parks, playgrounds, picnic areas, hiking paths, and of course, access to Lake Hiawatha, in case you want to drop your kayak or canoe in the water.
Happy Camping!

Huge park
This is probably the largest park we have ever stayed in. We normally go for the smaller quaint parks but we decided to try it out. We went along the outside rim in site Mako 7. The sites are large enough and have most have full hook ups. Not many trees for shade, but it is in Florida so that is to be expected. We were fortunate to have a couple of grassy areas around close to walk the dog. There is a dog park but it was on the other end of the campground. We did go one day and the park is nice. It’s sand and has poop bags. But no water for drinking so take your own. This side of the park had more trees and was nice for walking around with the dog. No WiFi in the area closest to the dog park. Sites seemed mostly level but only the new section has nice concrete pads. The older sections are hit and miss as to what the site looks like. All in all it’s a great location for visiting all the local attractions... (but we didn’t do that).

Bad
No dogs allowed and they like many Florida parks should have some way for Fl residence to actually be able to camp in Florida but no they don’t

Can we live here forever?
Loved our stay at Fort Wilderness. Our favorite Disney Resort. Super dog friendly with an amazing dog park. Great location and so many wonderful things to do here.

Peaceful Pocket on the Space Coast
There is something instantly calming about pulling into Sonrise Palms RV Park (you will want to note that misspelled 'Sonrise' otherwise you won't find this place on your GPS), tucked just off I-95 in Cocoa, where the pace slows down and the setting feels more like a quiet neighborhood packed with RVs than a busy campground, with spacious, mostly level sites, palm trees and greenery scattered throughout along with an EZ layout that makes settling in feel effortless. With around 80 to 90 full hookup sites, a heated pool, clean bathhouse and laundry, and even small touches like a dog park and canal fishing, this spot has all the essentials covered without feeling overwhelming. One evening, we grabbed a casual dinner nearby called The Grass Shack and came back to let the boys unwind at the pool while my hubby and I walked the grounds, spotting little bits of wildlife and enjoying that warm Florida night air before heading back for a cozy wind-down at our site. I would absolutely recommend this campground for families looking for a relaxed, low-key stay thanks to its quiet atmosphere, very clean bathroom and shower facilities as well as EZ access to nearby beaches, rocket launches and Space Coast adventures just a short drive away.

Blue Spring State Park Campground
Lovely pet friendly camping and spring
This campground was awesome for a weekend away with the family and dogs. It was still very hot and buggy in Florida so be warned If this is an issue for you. Large campsites with a picnic table, electric, and water. Pet friendly and clean bathrooms with a small walking path for the pups. Been to better but a great weekend away!

Manatee Hammock Campground
Best place to see a launch!
THIS quaint little park is so delightful. With so many gorgeous water birds and trees. The park sits off the Indian River and is the perfect place to catch a launch. The are also very dog friendly and have a dog park. The dock is also the perfect place to catch some redfish or snook. Had a wonderful time in this tucked away little spot.
Guide to Flamingo
Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground near Flamingo, Florida offers a pet-friendly camping experience within a well-maintained wooded setting. Located near Disney attractions, the campground features concrete pads and spacious campsites where dogs can enjoy the outdoors. The surrounding area includes several pet-friendly accommodation options with specific amenities for travelers camping with animals, ranging from basic facilities to resort-style campgrounds.
What to do
Visit the springs: Wekiwa Springs State Park Campground provides a natural escape with multiple lakes and springs where pets can cool off. "The springs are amazing!! Really nice campground with all the amenities, showers, water, and power hookups," notes Zackari S., who recommends booking well in advance since sites fill quickly.
Explore the wildlife areas: Bill Frederick Park at Turkey Lake offers multiple recreation options with pet-friendly trails. "This park has lots to offer - great trails for hiking and biking, boat launches, fishing, or just relaxing," reports one visitor. The park features a swimming pool, disk golf, and horseback riding while maintaining affordable rates.
Take a boat ride: Boggy Creek Resort & RV Park allows pets and provides waterfront access with boat ramps. "The park is beautiful and exactly what I'd been looking for," shares Michael D. The resort features airboat rides and fishing opportunities along East Lake Tohopekaliga where pets can enjoy shoreline walks.
What campers like
Spacious camping areas: Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground receives praise for its layout and size. "I really felt like I was at a campground and not at a Disney resort," shares Samantha O., who appreciated the wooded, quiet atmosphere despite being at a Disney property.
Clean facilities: Orlando/Kissimmee KOA maintains excellent standards for pet owners. "The campground is very clean and tidy. We felt safe staying here because there was always someone from staff walking around cleaning or checking on things," writes Andrea S., highlighting how this benefits pet owners concerned about sanitation.
Natural surroundings: Lake Louisa State Park Campground offers rolling hills unusual for central Florida. "The park is one of our many Trifecta parks, meaning we can hike, bike and kayak," explains one camper who appreciated the diverse terrain for pet activities. The campground maintains pine-needle covered sites and multiple lake access points.
What you should know
Temperature challenges: Florida heat can be intense for pets, particularly during summer months. Most campgrounds provide shade, but preparation is essential. "The sites are nice with good view of the sunset from where we were. Such a nice view," notes Caitlyn P. at Wekiwa Springs, where tree cover helps moderate temperatures.
Leash requirements: Most pet-friendly campgrounds enforce standard leash policies, though some provide designated exercise areas. Bill Frederick Park at Turkey Lake has specific zones where dogs can safely play while remaining under owner control.
Veterinary access: Thousand Trails Orlando is positioned with emergency pet care nearby. "This resort is impeccable with newly updated bath houses," mentions Brandie B., noting the convenience of the location being "only 30 minutes from most of the Orlando theme parks" and just minutes from shopping and services including veterinary care.
Tips for camping with families
Rent transportation: Golf carts improve mobility when camping with pets and children. "Rent a golf cart, it's worth it!!!" advises Kirsten J. about Fort Wilderness, where the expansive grounds can be challenging to navigate with tired children and pets.
Choose sites strategically: At Mill Creek RV Resort, concrete pads provide clean spaces for pets and kids. "The prices are extremely reasonable," notes J B., who found the park "conveniently located close to local attractions" making it easier to balance pet needs with family activities.
Plan for weather changes: Florida rainfall can create muddy conditions for pets. "While you can't blame the park for the weather, recently there's been a lot of rain and rigs of all sizes are up to their rims in muck," observes Geoff Y., suggesting waterproof gear for pets during rainy season.
Tips from RVers
Book early: Secure pet-friendly sites in advance, especially during peak seasons. "This park fills up when events like renaissance fair or dragon boat racing come through," warns Kelsey G. about Bill Frederick Park, noting its popularity due to central location.
Check hookup availability: Not all sites offer full connections for RVs with pets. "Only a couple of sites offer a water view due to the foliage and the trees," mentions an RVer at Lake Louisa State Park, where water and electric are available but sewer hookups are limited to specific sites.
Use pet waste stations: Most campgrounds maintain designated pet waste disposal areas. Boggy Creek Resort provides these amenities along with waterfront areas where dogs can enjoy water access. "The lake is nice and peaceful, with areas to sit and watch wildlife," notes a visitor appreciating the pet-friendly shorelines.
