We decided to stay here because of the location to some of the shopping and attractions my wife wanted to do while there! * Definitely like how close it is to everything. * The staff has been nice during our once meeting during checkin. Since then I haven't had the need to go to the office for anything. * It's definitely NOT a resort. * We didn't use any of the pools because it was cold but the park does have two nice pools. * Our site was decent and somewhat level and quiet. Overall we will definitely comeback to Encore Winter Garden!

I've been here almost a week, and honestly, this place is giving "we tried... kind of?" energy…read more They claim the bathrooms are cleaned twice a day, but one morning I went to shower and the building was closed from 8-9 a.m. for "cleaning." I walked all the way back, waited, went in... and there was hair all over the sinks. If it takes an entire hour to clean a bathroom and you still miss the most obvious thing in the room, I have questions. The showers have a tiny bench but no hooks and no shelves, so you basically have to choose between putting your stuff on the wet floor or juggling it like a circus act. And the laundry room? Supposed to open at 8 a.m. I hauled all my laundry down there, only to find it locked at almost 8:30. Nothing like standing outside with a basket of dirty clothes. Nothing like starting your day hauling dirty laundry back and forth several times. Calling the office doesn't help much either. You get prompts that don't lead to a real person. They call you back though. Not sure when. I missed that call. There are also several abandoned campers and full‑time residents with garbage scattered around their sites, which really adds to the ambiance. Overall, I liked it at first but the bathroom/laundry times are quite a pain. So unless you enjoy mystery cleaning routines, unreliable laundry access, and a scavenger‑hunt‑style approach to basic amenities I don't recommend it. Update. I was able to get into laundry room at 9am. Stopped into the bathroom before the walk back because it just reopened from being cleaned for an hour. Took pictures this time. Also I forgot to mention the bathrooms are locked with keypads during the day but propped open at night with video surveillance signs. I don't know what happens in the bathrooms and laundry they need surveillance and have to close the laundry at night but it can't be good.

The springs themselves are stunning--clear, clean, and so relaxing to swim in. If you're not in the water, there are also walking trails where you can enjoy nature and get some fresh air. They offer kayaking as well, which is such a fun way to explore the area and take in the scenery. There's also a snack bar on-site, which is super convenient if you want to grab something quick without leaving. Whether you're going for a relaxing day or something a little more active, Wekiva Springs has a little bit of everything. Highly recommend checking it out!

Cable TV is offered for $. Bring your own raised fire pit and wood if you like campfires. Site are spacious (40 x 65) some areas are full sun, others are shaded. You're parking on grass / packed sand. Some campsites have concrete patios (remnants of older park trailer that has since been removed. Warning about concrete: it's not reinforced so don't park your rig on it. Also, concrete is at various heights on sites and some may find issues with their Rv stairs. Two heated swimming pools (indoor 18+ open 24/7, outdoor is daylight hrs) cafe for breakfast and/or lunch weekdays. People here are friendly and most will stop and talk with newcomers and offer help when needed. Complex has lots of function rooms and during winter season have a gazillion activities for adults to participate in. The community is a 55+ property, under 18 year olds are allowing a two week stay a year. About 2/3 of sites are permanent onsite with the other 1/3 open for Rv campers. And about 1/3 of sites are year round residents. We came for 1 month winter camping several years ago. Kept extending our stay and ended up buying a park model a few years later.
