About this property
The Lake George Conservation Area protects more than half of the eastern shore of Lake George and its associated watershed that flows into the lake. Adjacent to property purchased in partnership with Volusia County, the conservation area also protects a wildlife corridor of more than 20 miles along Lake George and the St. Johns River.
The property is primarily composed of mixed hardwood swamp and pine flatwoods and is included in the wildlife management area managed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, enhancing wetlands and upland habitats.
One of the special highlights of this property is its high concentration of eagles’ nests. When it was purchased, this area boasted the highest concentration of bald eagles outside of Alaska. Eagles made their nests primarily in large old pine trees that resided as single trees in the wetlands throughout the property. They are now nesting in trees that were planted outside the wetlands.

I asked my parents to book this RV site because it has a pool and WiFi. First things first, you have to pay for WiFi. I spent $15 on WiFi for ONE DAY for 7 people because if you make only one account it allows only 3 devices to sign it with it. Doesn’t mention anything about that on their website or on here. The plants here and the views are really pretty. The pool was okay, and the one day and night we stayed there we met some friendly people who were staying there as well. The next morning, (40 minutes before checkout time) they were already calling my mom and asking us when we were leaving. Are you serious? Put an earlier check-out time on your business if you want people to leave earlier. It sucks because I recommended this site to my parents, and they treated my mom very crummy. We won’t be back here again.

Stayed at site 019 for 5 nights at the end of April in a 30’ travel trailer. The site backs up to an area of low grasses, bushes and palms with tall pines nearby. There is a ranger trail the runs behind the site as well but we never saw any riding past. There is a road not far away but it’s in a suburban area and I didn’t find it to be a problem. We were usually out hiking and swimming during the day and the nights just had a low hum of far off traffic. You could still hear nature all around. The trails are absolutely gorgeous. Natural palms growing among tall pines. We saw so many deer I lost count and we could hear the males in the distance. Also spotted a young alligator walking on a trail near the spring. The gopher tortoises are out in full force in the mid afternoon. Didn’t spot a bear though. We didn’t want to leave at the end of our trip. And would’ve stayed longer if our schedules allowed. Would highly recommend.

Nice sized sites with a cement pad, picnic table, grill and trash can per site. Nice gravel drive for the RV. There are horse events, fun to watch., food truck available for breakfast and lunch day of event. Nice shade snd clean bathrooms. Only $17 if over 55. Right next to the west orange bike trail.
LegendPrivate sites, nice amenities, great park. Perfect!

This site is a gated community not a camp ground
LegendWhile just a short jaunt from I95, in under 7 minutes from 3-lane express highway traffic, you’ll find yourself sauntering south on a meandering paved entranceway with white picket fences and swear that you were driving onto the set of Dallas (for those of us that remember that Texan drama series!). Once you swing around the bend, a blockade of Ancient Oaks and Magnolias draped in an excessive amount of Spanish Moss are there to greet you to Bulow RV Resort (which is run by Encore RV Resorts). And WOW! does this place pack a lot in!
For starters, this RV campground is MASSIVE with nearly 400 back-in and pull-through slots to choose from. Nestled on the banks of the Bulow Creek and nearby to the Intracoastal, with the famed Flagler Beach just beyond, this campground is perfect for those seeking water (of any kind). And for those that prefer land, no worries, out here, you are completely surrounded by 6+ golf courses and a ton of great hiking trails. Don’t have an RV? Cringe at the thought of setting up a tent? Absolutely not a problem here at Bulow RV Resort, where they’ll rent you 1 of 5 types of cabins / cottages (note: no pets allowed on these premises though).
Really, the only downside to this entire place is the lack of privacy that you’ll encounter here – apart from being surrounded by Florida’s most amazing natural wilderness. Once inside this RV compound, it is quite barren and therefore doesn’t offer much in the way of privacy or a sense of seclusion. So if living in an RV city, complete with road signs and attractions is your idea of paradise, then Bulow RV Resort could be ideal for you.
As for amenities here, you won’t be disappointed – although you may be overwhelmed by the sheer amount of things to do! Starting with the basics, there are scattered picnic tables and BBQ grills and very well maintained restrooms and clean shower facilities. For RVers, all of the basic water, sewage and electric (30 / 50 amp) hook-ups are available and most of the spaces are fairly wide-open and barren, so you won’t have much privacy anywhere in this campground. In addition, there’s RV storage, ballroom/ banquet hall (because you never know when you might need to throw a big party, right?!), horseshoes, mini-golf, sand volleyball court, designated picnic / bbq areas, clubhouse / lounge, dog park and all the WiFi for your social media surfing pleasure. There’s also a fairly well-stocked market on-site, propane refill station, plenty of designated dump stations, shuffleboard, full service bar (yes, I couldn’t believe it either!) and an activities center that has a full lineup of daily events. And if that wasn’t enough, there’s also a fairly decent sized pool that has an absolutely pristine laundr-O-mat located right next to it. I know! Mai Tais, floaties and running a load of whites all-in-one!
Insider’s Tips? Here’s a few: (1) For those that are spending just a few nights (or even a week), you’ll want to find a spot much closer to the front of the property – as the back of the property is organized more for longer-term monthly ‘residents’; (2) For those that enjoy hiking, I strongly recommend heading just due south of this RV resort to Bulow Plantation Ruins Historic Park, where you can hike Bulow Creek Canoe Trail, which is quite short and basic, or head further south to Boardman Pond where there’s a pretty cool observation platform for bird-watching; (3) For tent campers, you’ll discover that this resort has isolated a place directly in front (near those white picket fences), where you will be separated from the RV community. Again, because there is ZERO ground coverage, you will feel a little like a ‘spider in a bathtub,’ so I would recommend if you are going to camp here, to opt for a site as far west as you can (towards those Ancient Oaks and Magnolias I first mentioned – in fact, I would just go primitive and head in that direction anyway); (4) If you’re looking to drop a kayak or canoe in the water, you can either do that directly on-site where the Bulow Creek merges with the Halifax River (nearby the swimming pool) or further afield and southernly, you can drop your watercraft in Tomoka Marsh Aquatic Preserve where you’ll enjoy much wider expanses; and (5) When you get tired of firing up the grill for each meal and want to venture out into the local area, go try out Flagler Fish Company which has been a local (funky) favorite for years or The Anchor, both of which serve up just amazing seafood done up any which way you can imagine.
Happy Camping!
GuideThere were a lot of kids but very respectful.
GuideQuiet woodsy spread out CG small loops so always close to the bathhouse. Dirt sites ours was level. Cell service was good. CG about a mile from the Springs and playground. Springs and Playground are very nice but very busy on the weekends. Publix is less than 5 minutes of you forget something.
GuideVery nice park, some sites have more privacy and shade than others. Swimming area is beautiful but a long walk from campground.
TravelerWe arrived on a Thursday. The campground was about half full. Went the springs on Friday. Not very crowded at all. The staff that in interacted with were all friendly. Facilities were all clean and well maintained.
GuideAnother nice stop on our East Coast bike tour! Spacious sites with picnic tables and water. Charge phone in the bathroom. No hot water for shower the night we were there though, and the tent camping area backs up to the main road into the neighborhood, so we heard car noise throughout the night.

Bill Frederick was a surprise. The campground is small but with 10 FHU sites and 25 electric/water site within 15 miles of Disney for only $25 a night…It’s well worth it. Stayed in Site 4 which was close to the comfort station, which by the way was clean and had great shower pressure. Electricity was stable. Water pressure at the site was a little low but ok. I would definitely stay here.
GuideSites were sand/grass. Gravel is badly needed. Overnight rain left sites in standing water. Pool was lovely. Restrooms and laundry were clean.
TravelerThe springs offer no supervision. Kids were diving off the bridge even though there were signs. We were less than impressed all together
TravelerThis is a simple spot for a couple nights of peaceful sleep. Electric is included in the low price and a bathroom with showers. Friendly staff and well kept park.
Legend
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!
GuideWe had a great time camping here. You do have to drive to the springs from your campsite but it’s not a huge deal.
Bathrooms were nice and clean and got good cell service.
The tall pines were beautiful and you had decent amount of space from other campers.
Guide2nd time going camping and it was amazing! The springs were great after a 2 hours hiking. Lot of places to explore. We saw deers, turkeys, owls, birds. We definitely are going back!
TravelerLoud campers here! It’s a very busy state park. The bathrooms were some of the worst we’ve ever seen. However, our site was great. We hiked, went fishing, and kayaked. Great park for the amenities!
GuideOn our visit in January of 2019 we found the campsites and the bathrooms to be okay but not great. The sites weren't very spaced out and there wasn't a lot of trees or brush between them so privacy wasn't great, but I've seen worse and it wasn't too much of an issue.
The main attraction to this campground (and State Park) are the springs and the waterway that leads to Wekiva Island. It is great for kayaking or swimming.
The trails also seemed very fun from where I can see from the road and campground, but unfortunately I didn't get to go explore them.
ScoutThis state park has good camp sites with fine hard packed sand. All sites have picnic tables and fire rings. Two circles make up the camp sites. The circle with the higher numbers are more suited to tent campers. We stayed in site 54 and 36 which were great. Bathrooms are clean. There a plenty of trails to hike and kayak trails to paddle. The swimming is okay, but the area gets busy. Wekiva Island is close by, you can paddle there for a snack and a beer. Lively crowd hanging out by the water.
GuideStayed for a weekend. Thought it was a nice park, clean and spacious campsite. Had good water, electric and sewage connections. My main complaint is we could definitely hear and see vehicle traffic coming from a nearby roadway, but once you get passed that, it’s a nice place. Staff was friendly.
RangerNice campground close to Orlando attractions. Beautiful lake with great walking/biking trails. Sites were a nice size with paved driveways, that could be a little wider. The grass was overgrown and muddy around our site. Pool was also closed during our visit. Would come back again.
ScoutIf you can get a spot in this park…. It’s one not be missed. Close to Orlando and all the amenities it has to offer… but when you are in the park you feel miles away from anywhere. Great spring for swimming and a river for canoeing. Biggest problem is finding availability.
TravelerLovely customer service and the most beautiful river to paddle down. Saw so many fish and turtles. Even a few otters. There’s a stand for food and drinks and if you want to get out there there are plenty of hiking and primitive camp sights.
TravelerJust finished my first two nights in wekiwa. Saw an abundance of animals including deer, a bear, and alligators. Plants and mushrooms were amazing , and caught tons of fish from the bank. Big buck has water which is nice. Plenty of space, fire pit, pack hooks, and even an old pipe to lock your bike on if that’s your fancy. Will definitely be back.
LegendI’m not sure what classifies RV Parks as a resort vs just a park but it should be dropped from Bulow. When I think of resort, I think luxury amenities, spacious sites, professional staff, etc.. As a full timer I’ve stayed at lots of RV Parks and this one is just ok. It’s great proximity to the beach and Daytona but lacks resort style amenities. The staff was better this trip but not very professional. The sites are so close together you can hear your neighbors breath. The permanent guests are friendly. The community center is only open at night after 7 pm. You have to pay for access to a WiFi network that doesn’t work 90% of the time and isn’t strong enough to stream. The pool is small and usually crowded. The bathhouses and restrooms are not ventilated and often not clean. I wanted to give the TV Park a second chance due to my low rating last year during COVID but there’s been no significant changes and this will likely be our last stay here.
Florida offers a fantastic experience for horse camping enthusiasts, with a variety of well-reviewed spots that cater to both equestrians and nature lovers.
