County park with camping

Almost no one here, 14 sites all spread out in a single area. The boardwalk was closed and for good reason, in serious disrepair in some areas. Campsites themselves don’t accomodate rvs and don’t have any hookups. They do have a grill and a place to hang up food, and a single small parking space. The campsite is spacious and features a picnic table on cement and an open area surrounded by trees. It’s in a somewhat remote area of an overdeveloped part of Florida, about 40 minutes from universal studios, longer to Disney. The lake is nice, the park is very nice with a city park vibe.

Very crowded

I didn’t make it on many of the trails, so I’m guessing I missed a lot of the charm of this place, but the campsites themselves were right on top of each other and very crowded. Everyone was very nice, and one person told me the primitive sites down the road were much more spread out but I can’t attest to that. I will say the main camp area is a madhouse, with loud music, lots of people, and lots of dogs. The restrooms were tidy and the wood was $7 a bundle and not great.
