If you're heading down to Ft. Wilderness and you get to the Orlando Area early and you need a place to stay, check out Bill Frederick Park at Turkey Lake.
There's a number of site with full hookups, at a very reasonable price. (Full hookups - $25 a night.) The sites are reasonably flat and paved. The bath houses are adequate - not quite Disney clean, but okay - and it's a very nice place to relax and decompress after a drive down here. There is a fair amount of noise from the Florida Turnpike, but it fades into background pretty fast, almost like surf noise in the distance. (With the occasional flatulent whale passing... )
We're looking at about a 20-minute drive to Ft. Wilderness tomorrow - and then the fun starts. (Well, it already started - we went to Boo Bash the other night - I'll put up a report on that later.)
So - if you need a spot either before or after your Ft. Wilderness stay - (or even want someplace to stay instead of Ft. Wilderness) check out Bill Frederick Park. Easy access, roomy sites, and you really can't beat the price.
Enjoy!
