  Westgate River Ranch Resort & Rodeo

  River Ranch RV Resort

  You can get a RV site through Westgate which is more of a field or through River Ranch RV Resort which has full hook-ups. We stayed on a waterfront site at River Ranch RV Resort and it was perfect! We were able to fish right off the dock at our site, there was a fit pit and grill, as well as seating outside (each site could be configured differently). At Westgate River Ranch (walking distance from our site but still got a golf cart) we went to the rodeo on Saturday night, did a swamp buggy ride, skeet shooting, petting zoo and rode a mechanical bull... and there was still more we could have done but ran out of time since we still wanted to relax some 🙃 If you're looking for a great site with tons of activities available River Ranch RV Resort is the place for you!

  Thousand Trails Peace River

  Decent RV Park

  The park is clean, it’s the midsized Thousand Trails Park in Florida. Peace River is really pretty, very green and has a wooded section, a tropical section, and a flood section. We have seen Class As sink, so if you have a heavy diesel pusher, make sure you find a spot safe for your RV. Make sure you have a Clam or some kind of outdoor shade with a big screen because there are a lot of mosquitos in the evenings. There are Alligators along the River banks and in the woods.

  The park is really quiet and the town nearby is very small. They do have groceries and fuel. There are not many attractions within an hour to go to. There are some local museums and shops.

  Cell reception: minimal, it is put in the country for Florida, And the neighboring town is small. So there is signal but bandwidth is low because of so many RVers not counting towards the population of the area.

  Ammenities: Laundry Pool Sewer pump out (one free per stay) Shower House A River Mini Golf (Needing updating) Camp Store Dump Station

  This is a Thousand Trails property and there were some permanent spots, but this park does not have the typical built ins. There are several walking paths. The highlight of this park was collecting shark and sting ray teeth along the river. You can get wire mesh baskets in the office to aid in your search.

  Although we enjoyed our time here there were some serious concerns with flooding. Many large rigs were parked in the flood plane which encompasses a large section of the park.

  There are some sewer available sites but there is a strange lottery system. Every day about 1pm you go sign up for the lottery system to shuffle your RV to a sewer site if you’re lucky enough to get it. They failed to tell us you have to show up daily. It was pretty frustrating. They offer (1) free pump out. Many will stay at this park for 3 weeks. If you have your own laundry machines - you won’t be able to use them. The laundry available on the property was pricey.

  All in all we did enjoy our time here but we arrived prepared and it’s more camping than an RV Resort.

  Westgate River Ranch Resort & Rodeo

  Stay at River Ranch RV Resort Next Door Instead

  This review relates to River Ranch RV Resort, which is next to the Westgate property. I would personally not stay at the Westgate RV since it is basically just an open field with RV spots. 

  River Ranch RV next door is a beautiful place with fantastic spots. We stayed in spot 323 which had its own swing and fireplace. Our 37 ft rig fit perfectly and five year old loved riding bike around the park. Everyone was super friendly and I recommend renting a golf cart, though expensive at $60 a day, 

  Be aware of telephone phone reception. At our spot we could not get any reception with ATT. After buying a Verizon hotspot down the road in Lake Wales, we were able to WFH.a

  Would highly recommend this spot in Central Florida.

  Thousand Trails Peace River

  2nd camping trip ever, 1st in our travel trailer...

  This was our second camping trip as a couple and the first in our travel trailer. I don’t have much to compare it to so take this with a grain of salt. Upon check in you have first come first serve. Since we were not camping with others we were looking for a wooded area and ended up in C-56 which is the 4th to last spot before the water view spots. We were quite satisfied with our somewhat private site which was a quick walk to the walking trails and Peace River. We have a Thousand Trails 1 year pass with purchase of our trailer which saved us $50 per night. Many of the campers we spoke to were Thousand Trails members. We won’t be visiting campgrounds for the amenities as we use this time to get away and reduce typical socializing so I cannot comment on the condition of the pickle-ball courts or pool.

  Thousand Trails Peace River

  Words can’t describe

  Ok. I will try to sum this place up in as short of a review as I can. If I could give this place no stars I would.

  Pros:

  I don’t really have any Pros.

  Cons:

  • Not all hookups are full. Must enter lottery to get full hookup site. Wasted 3 hours pulling into one spot. Have to sign up, enter lottery, look at spot, go back hope your name is called, if it is move again.

  • Laundry is broke! Numerous people who have been here for longer then a month have said they have been broke since November.

  • Swimming pool is like taking a warm bath with 60 other people.

  • They charge $5.00 per item to receive mail. Yes you read that right. If it’s an regular envelope it’s $5. Medication. Yep $5. Got three post cards from aunt Mable. $15.

  • Staff are the most ignorant I have come across on a 7 month road trip around the country. Ask a simple question about laundry room and the employee coped a huge attitude. The two maintenance men were awesome. But front office staff are HORRIBLE.

  *** IMO thousand trails maybe good for some people however they are the biggest waste of money I have seen.

  Barlow's Fish and RV Camp

  Great lil fishing spot

  Great lil place. Staff is very friendly. Small clubhouse with laundry, pool table and dart board. Neighbors were great. Mostly long term snowbirds. Few double wide trailers with full timers. Hookups are great. I would recommend.

  Thousand Trails Peace River

  Old park needs update

  This park has beautiful views and nice large spaces. First come, first serve on spots leaves little to be desired when you plan far enough out. Pickle ball and pool were very active. Bathrooms were not placed in a very convenient spot, poorly maintained and they were small in comparison to the size of the park. Being a Thousand Trails facility it was very disappointing.

  Westgate River Ranch Resort & Rodeo

  Badass campground

  We actually got a spot at RRRVR (river ranch RV resort) which is on the backside by the smoke house restaurant. It was lot 196 and it was FANTASTIC! River ranch has so much to do. Rodeos, food, putt putt, petting zoo- and tons more. A great family venue. Will definitely be back.

  Encore Gulf View

  Nice but not top notch

  We are staying here for 2 weeks. This is our first visit. To be fair, they are still recovering from hurricane Ian. Some of the sites are very nice and well kept and others look like they have very long term residents who don’t clean up after themselves very well.

  Lakeside North RV Resort

  Good and bad.

  Several run down travel trailers with full timers living here. Packed in tight. Most have less than 12’ between them. The rec center is out of order and the pool is cold. The people living here are very nice. They include you in everything. Area is safe and clean. $1725 from 1-16-23 to 2-15-23. Utilities included. Full Hook Up.

  Thousand Trails Peace River

  Enjoyed our stay

  This was our second Thousand Trails stay. Unlike The Oaks at Point South you have to find your own spot. It's a little unnerving. Fortunately, we had a few to choose from as soon as we arrived. There are a few paved roads but others are not. It had just rained a lot due to Hurricane Eta and there are huge potholes. So go slow!!!! We chose D14, back in. All of their sites are back in and they stress that over and over. FHU, no shade at our site, picnic table, fire ring with flip grill, grass pad. Fire rings are close to your neighbors camper b/c of mowing. Just move it. No cable or WiFi. Great Verizon. Pool was suppose to be open but they had to redo the pool deck. It was open the last day we were there and it's very nice. There is road noise, with air on not a problem. The back part of part is closed b/c of drainage issues. The site next to us the electricy didn't work which was great for us. Extra room! The sites are very spacious. In the winter when it's crowded they have a system of getting sites. Our water hookup didn't have a handle. Notified the office and it was fixed. You don't see staff out much at all. In a week, I saw 2 employees drive by.

  Craig's RV Park

  Very friendly residents and staff

  This is a campground for long-term campers. There are many snowbirds who spend winters here. Between a third and half of the sites are permanent campers. There are tons of activities for campers including dances, community dinners, bingo, monthly bluegrass concerts, shuffleboard, pool, cards, horseshoes, bocce ball, a driving range and walking/biking track, and much more. There is a laundromat and shower building and a nice, screened swimming pool. A wonderful place!

  Creekside RV Resort

  Beautiful, new and spacious sites

  This resort is absolutely beautiful.  Lots of grass and trees all around.  Big sites with plenty of room between other campers.  Wide, paver parking with full hook ups.  Big and clean showers and restrooms.  Nice pool and hot tub.  Some sites even have casitas.  Easy access off highway.  Close to downtown Punta Gorda.

  Only possible negative would be you can hear some highway noise when outside and there's an airport nearby.  In the rig, we didn't hear anything, but our air conditioner was running almost the entire time. ;)

  Seminole Campground

  RV Only -- No Tents Allowed in this Campground

  Unlike the name would lead you to believe, the Seminole Campground and RV park in North Fort Myers, isn't actually a campground at all -- it's just an RV park.

  Located just off of I-75 and Hwy 78 (Bayshore) the location of the park is a short drive (in FL terms) to anywhere in the Ft Myers area. There is a Publix not far away, and a new restaurant called the Boat House near the Civic Center.

  The "campground" is convenient to Lee County Civic Center and Echo (a global agricultural non profit learning center). 

  RV sits are 55$ a day including hookups. The campground has a pool, bath house, and a community area. 

  There are trash receptacles onsite and a recycling bin at each site. Each site also has a picnic table and grill.

  There are a lot of RVs at the campground that look like they're there to stay awhile. The campground has more the feel of a mobile home park than it does a campground.

  Thousand Trails Peace River

  Great Campground

  Great campground in the middle of nowhere.  This campground offers a lot for people that just want to get away and chill and enjoy what the park has to offer.   We where here for 2 weeks in January and the park is 80% full.   

  We are here with our Thousand trails park membership.    When you arrive to the park you are told to go find a site you would like to be in and then go up to the office and let them know.  Because it is full on in season you are asked to find a site that is in the green section (map is in my photos) which are 30 amp non sewer sites.   If you would like a 50 amp sewer site, yellow section on the map, you will then go up to the office to get on the list for the lottery of the sites available and these will be called off at 2 pm.  The list for the sites that will be available on the board outside the office  The day we arrived I did get on the list and did get called but chose to stay where we are.  I really liked our site tucked under the trees on Ave A.    Then I scheduled the honey wagon to come twice during our 2 weeks here.   There's only two of us in our RV so this works out fine.  If you want to stay in a site that is non sewer and you need the honey wagon more then every 7 days there is a small cost for that.  psst  don't forget to tip the honey wagon guy   Many people have the black tank tote and use that while staying in the non sewer sites.

  The park has a actives calendar and has stuff scheduled every day.  It was nice to see a lot of stuff scheduled for the kids.  

  There is a great hiking trail that I ran many times while in the park and the peace river runs east of the park   There are many spots you can look for fossils in the river.  While I was here a kid really found a Megalodon tooth that was quite exciting   We did put our Kayaks in here at the boat launch  but due to the water being so low we didn't really get to go very far   We ended driving up to pains creek a few miles and did a float trip back to the park.  Then we just took our electric bikes back up to the drop off point to retrieve our jeep.  We really liked this park and are scheduled to be back for a couple weeks in Feb.

  Butch’s RV Hideaway

  More like a 3.5, but could be a 4

  Dirt road going into the gate area, once inside our site would’ve been a tight right turn as soon as you get past the gate and that is not possible when pulling a 32’ trailer. So we had to go down and do either a U turn or a 3 point turn. After that was accomplished we made a left down the grass road to our site. The site I was in was grass/dirt with a nice sized cement slab. Full hook up, water, sewer and electric (no cable). However I was able to pull up several hundred digital HD channels and there is high speed Wi-Fi in the park. There is not much to do, but if you like quiet and tranquility this is your place. Walmart/ Harbor Freight is about 8 miles away, Dollar General closer. Leaving the site make a left to go out the gate is also impossible, so you have to make a right and do that 3 point turn again. It would be nice if one or some of the roads looped so you can just drive out. Owners are very nice. Dog kennel nearby so there are some barking dogs. Pool needs some care. Occasional bug situation at nights (May Bugs). FYI, We have T-Mobile and there is zero signal , no bars for T-Mobile in this park.

  Fisheating Creek Campground

  A hidden gem!

  We stayed in the RV side of the campground. Arrived at 745 literally before closing. Called the office ahead to let them know we are almost there , the staff was super nice. Checked in with no issues, staff even gave us an option to checkout another site if we liked more we can take it. We stayed at out booked site. It’s very dark no lights . I wish the sites were marked with a reflective tape. Very quite and chill atmosphere. This is not a party spot. Sites are pretty roomy and you are not on top of your neighbors.Each site comes with fire-rings, full hook up (rv sites), tent sites do not have hook ups and a picnic table. The river is so beautiful in the morning filled with fog. There’s a swimming depot in the park , looks like a man made lagoon. You can rent kayak/canoe and paddle on the river. A new add on was a food truck , looks like a good menu will try next time. There’s a small preserve with a Boardwalk to explore. There’s no pool or playground. This is a no frills campground but i love it because you can disconnect,relax and view wildlife. Reception here is actually amazing. 20 mins away in Labelle there’s a bomb brewery if you wanna explore a nearby town.

  The campsites are not spread out at all and the campground is nowhere near any types of wilderness. It is pretty much an RV park on the outskirts of town. The campground was packed!!

  La Belle Woods Resort

  Great Inland Florida Park

  We spent the winter here after usually being near the beach. It was a fun place to be to experience a different ambience. The city of LaBelle has winter events like their Swamp Cabbage Festival and parade. They have a nice rodeo grounds with impressive events. The RV park itself has tons of activities and pickle ball courts etc. Owners friendly. We don’t have a pet, but everyone seems careful with their dogs. It’s a very seasonal park and pretty new. They just finished a second new laundry and showers building this 2023 year. Very fair prices. But must have a less-than-ten-year-old rig.

  Thousand Trails Peace River

  Nice location few amenities.

  Patty in the office refused to even speak to me on the phone because there was a person in the office. Wouldn't let me hold, didn't want me to call back. Then she ended up as my neighbor and told me where I could and couldn't put things on my lot so she could park her van. So customer service is definitely lacking. Laundry room is small and always full go to the laundry mat. Lots are not first come first served the do a lottery no matter what time you arrive, first it was at noon, then moved to 1, then to 2. So everyone that arrived after you has the same chance to get a coveted full hook up site. In the mean time you must pick a 30 amp no sewer site to wait for the lottery. They are hoping you don't want to move again. The truck to pump out your rig is impossible to book yet they pump themselves out next door daily as well as pumping out their friends every other day. Again such a lack of customer service in order to provide a better experience for the employees at the expense of the paying members. Ridiculous!

  Overall - great camping “resort”

  If you are wanting the outdoors style camping, not here. This is more of a resort then campground. Great staff, many amenities, and overall a good stay. Should have looked into it more as this is more of an RV park, and less of a true campgrounds.

  I plan on using this RV park on a regular basis in the future due to my business expanding into Ft Myers. The rates were the cheapest around and the service was great. Great clean area with a pool. Local guest were very friendly as well.
