Although I wouldn’t consider this a “resort”, it’s a nice campground with the beach on one end and the intercoastal waterway on the other. North Beach is actually on Vilano Beach, located about 3 miles north of St. Augustine on Hwy A1A.

The pavement ends at the front office, from there its flat sandy roads that wind through the deeply forested campground. Palmetto’s grow between each campsite so there is plenty of privacy. In some areas of the campground the palmetto’s were so thick you could barely see to the next site. The campground is so deeply forested that the roads in the campground seem like tunnels. There is free wifi throughout the campground, and it could be easily picked up inside our motorhome. They also had cable, and sewer hookups.

The facilities were clean and well maintained. We camped at a site in one of the older sections, so some of the facilities were a little dated, but still clean. There is a newer bathhouse in a newer sections by the riverfront, but we didn’t get a chance to check it out. All the bathhouses have laundry rooms which were also clean and well maintained. There is a game room in the main office as well as a bath house and laundry room. They also have a small campstore with all the basics. They have a big pool with a huge hot tub.

The campground was fairly busy when we were there, but it still was quiet and very laid back. We loved it!

We followed the signs to Vortex Spring Campground when we discovered the Ponce de Leon Springs State Park did not have a campground.

Driving into Vortex Spring, it appeared that it been deserted other than a really nice dive shop where we checked in. The bathrooms definitely were not inviting. They also looked like they had been sitting vacant for awhile with doors wide open. Fortunately we had sewer hookup because I would not have been comfortable using their showers.

We have been traveling across the country now for 8 weeks so we have seen pretty much every type of campground. The kicker here is I was on-line, doing a little research on their site here. The home webpage for this campground advertised “Winter Special – 50% off all camping and lodging Monday through Thursday”. We had been charged full price at check in. I emailed them and asked if we could be refunded the 50% and the response was that you had to mention it at check-in, sorry. To me this is false advertising and pretty rude considering we were the only patrons in the campground.

What a friendly, lovely campground.

The staff at Lake Rousseau RV Park was friendly and helpful. The restrooms were clean and sites were well maintained. We stayed here in a fifth wheel and will return again. What a great park!

We have traveled the entire country for seven years. We stayed several times at Grand Lake RV and Golf Resort before Morgan Recreation bought the park. We will never stay here again.

We called about a year ago to make a reservation but found the park had changed so much. The park had raised their prices by a substantial amount and the reservation employee was not very friendly. Needless to say we did not stay.

Thinking maybe things had changed we decided to try them again on our way home to south Florida like we used to do. What a mistake. They are even worse. The employee was also very unfriendly like the one before. We said we were not sure if we wanted to stay three or four days. The lady stated that we had to decide at the time of the reservation because you had to pay for the whole stay up front with no refunds allowed. She said they started payment in full up front this year. Needless to say we told her to remove our info from their computer as we would never stay again.

Since there are probably ten other parks in the Ocala area, I believe their attitude will cost them business. Most veteran RVers don’t appreciate bad attitudes.

Elite Resorts at Citrus Valley was basically just a parking lot.

They only had one area to use for showers. It was quite a distance away if you walked all the way around. Otherwise you could walk through the RV spots. If you walked through the RV spots you ran the risk of tripping over low lying metal chains across many of the driveways. You couldn’t see the chains in the sunlight and you couldn’t see the chains in the dark. It was a dangerous situation. I told the manager about it and he said they weren’t going to remove the chains.

We didn’t see much shade. The grass looked like crab grass. Staff wasn’t really very friendly. Also the bathroom smelled. Give it a 1 out of 10 rating.

Avalon Landing RV Park is one of the nicest campgrounds we have stayed at in a long time.

They have very, very clean bathrooms and laundry. The pool is small but it was right on he water and it had a great view. Some of the sites are along the road but the campers we talked to on those sites said the noise was not bad at all.

I can not say enough good about the staff. We came in a little after 7 pm and even though the office was closed, one of the managers was walking his dog and helped us get backed into our site. They gave us a great idea for a nice Bar-b-que dinner. We even saw them there that night. When we registered the next morning, the lady gave us great suggestions for things to do and maps to avoid high tolls.

We were originally only going to stay there for 2 nights but extended it to a week. If you are in a motorhome they have some nice pull-in sites that face the water, with nice views. We will definitely stay with them again.

Suncoast is an old and dated KOA park that has been sold numerous times. The sites are too small and management insist on packing in bigger and bigger units.

No-see-ums are bad as are the fleas. Cats run wild and dog owners are not encouraged to pick up dog waste. When it rains it floods, the too narrow roads are higher than the campsites and drainage is poor. Sites are dirt and patio’s insufficient. Because it’s adjacent to a state wilderness area you’ll have racoon’s, possum’s, armidillo’s and snakes of course.

There is too few washers and dryers for the number of sites and there are always a couple of them down not to mention the propane runs out. If you don’t mind being inconvenienced and are looking for a cheap place to stay then this is it for you, at least the cablevision and internet work.

Simply said, you’ll enjoy your stay at Camp’n Aire RV Resort Park, if you can get in early.

We booked for the winter season during Sept 2009 and there were only two sites left. Almost all of the residents we met had been coming to this place for years and we found out why. Everyone there is friendly, it’s like family, time all the time during your stay. We especially liked the 4:00PM get together’s.

We enjoyed our stay at Treasure Coast RV Park and Campground. The park is very clean and and the facilities are well maintained. The management and staff were very friendly.

It’s the only Florida RV park located within one-mile of both Interstate 95 and the Florida Turnpike. The location means easy access and convenience. The campground is constructed with all concrete pads, 30/50 amp electric on all sites, free wireless Internet, free cable TV, a swimming pool and a hot-tub. Their Clubhouse has a billiard table, and ping pong table. The campground also has a laundry room and showers. The Entire Park Is Gated For Privacy & Security.

I would stay longer next time.

Lake City is a nice campground run by friendly people. I stayed in late April and there were not many people there.

The campground offers free wifi, an activity room (with TV) and the showers and bath area were clean. I stayed in a small camper and used the tent area, which offered electricity and water. I also stored my trailer there afterward in their storage area and the cost was minimal.

I’d use them again.
