best tent for florida camping image
Q. My husband and I recently got an RV and have been taking our 2 small boys camping for about the past year. What are the best campgrounds that are the most kid friendly. We have 1 year old and 3 year old boys.
Answer
If I could I would stay at the Disney Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground. You can stay there and enjoy all the ammenities of a Disney resort without even having to pay to go to the parks. There is a pool, horseback riding, tennis, archery, crusing on the Disney lakes, petting zoo, playgrounds and so much more. Be sure to click the link on the sources section, for much more detailed info from www.allears.net.
Here's a little more info:
There are 788 conventional campsites at FW located in 20 loops (100 through 2000). Most sites are fairly secluded from one another by a generous growth of brush and trees between sites. All campsites are back-ins and are a combination of paved driveway, which range in length from 25 to 60 feet, and sandy pad. Each site is approximately 25 feet wide and comes with a picnic table and charcoal grill. All sites have electricity (20/30/50 amps) and city water. There are 695 full hookup sites that also provide sewer. The 90 partial hookup sites, primarily used by tent campers and those with tent trailers, are located on loops 1500 and 2000.
It used to be that you couldn't have a campfire at the sites, because they worried about people letting them get out of control etc. But! this policy changed.
You can bring in your own contained campfire unit. Typically, stores call them firepits or outdoor fireplaces. It's a solid metal bottom on short legs with metal mesh sides and a top. A mesh top is okay at all campsites EXCEPT any of those that are creekside. If you have a creekside spot, you must have a solid metal top for your firepit. This is to better prevent embers from spreading to the greater amount trees and foliage (and wildlife) that are around the creeks. For example, the creek/dog walk along Loop 300 has a large wooded area with deer, eagles, armadillos and more making their home there.
Of course, Fort Wilderness also has the Campfire Program where you can enjoy campfires as well as everything offered at this special program.

me and my cousin want to go camping in tents, but need to know where to go. It has to be somewhere in between the crystal river area and the lake okeechobee area. i would like it to be a place basically where there is hardly any people, just a lot of woods and wilderness. maybe trails and stuff. i just need some good suggestions/ideas. thanks guys
Answer
I would recommend Ocala National Forest. Get a Primitive site. I can recommend hopkins prairie. It is a very small campground, so there aren't a lot of people there. Also the Florida Scenic Trail runs through it.
