travlinohio 0 Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 We are heading to the fort on the 19th, and figured we would leave earlier that we expected. Fort is booked so we cannot add a day, we would like to stay at a campground that is dog friendly, and not to far off of I-75. We are coming from ohio and would like to be somewhat close to our destination! let me hear some suggestions! We are traveling with 2 large fifth wheels. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy and Grandma 739 Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 There are numerous places within a couple hours drive of the FORT. Several CG's in Ocala. The KOA in Wildwood is under new ownership. It was called Wildwood Campground for about a year.(lost the franchise) Not sure how it is with the new owners. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

alexwyattmommy 181 Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 We liked Eagles Roost. The sites are close together, but that Spanish Moss in the trees is just so pretty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tim5055 120 Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Our favorite places are usually State Parks. We really liked Silver River State Park and when going 75 usually do a couple of nights there before the mousehttp://www.floridast...rg/silverriver/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
photogal06...Sommer 10 Posted November 13, 2012 Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 We almost always stay at River Park RV Park on the way down....it's in Valdosta, GA, just a couple of hours from the Fort. It's right off the highway but strangely not super noisy the way some are. There's a hotel between the campground and the highway, which helps block the noise. The landscaping is pretty, and the people who run it are nice. They have a fenced dog run, too. And it's inexpensive....always a plus for us, lol! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
