Wilderness VP87

1 site · RV1 acre · Silver Springs, FL
VP87 is a 1/10 acre pull through site with ~70 feet of concrete and room to park two vehicles. Pet friendly for dogs and cats (total of 2 pets only please). Water, sewer, and 30/50amp power on site. An 8X12 shed complete with full size modern WASHER and DRYER, residential size refrigerator, a utility sink and even a real porcelain toilet! The shed only has cold water... Just down the street from Ocala and Silver Springs State Park, in the Village Park portion of Wilderness RV Resort. Wilderness is a lovely community of RV lot owners and tenants with palm trees, manicured lots, and many amenities: a bath house, a gym and sauna/steam room, swimming pool and hot tub, big dog park, and a hiking trail... all nestled right on the shore of the beautiful and famous Ocklawaha River. Oh, and there is even a little candy shop and restaurant on premises that serves breakfast and lunch. Quick and easy shopping for typical requirements just down the road in Ocala or Silver Springs. Silver Springs State Park is less than 5 miles and offers glass bottom boat tours of the famous springs. If you have your own kayak/canoe you can paddle from there to Ray Wayside Park and return to your car at the state park with the shuttle service. Or you can pass Ray Wayside and paddle another .5 mile directly to Wilderness RV Resort (you'll just need a way back to retrieve your car) ... approximately 6 miles of beautiful clear water and Florida jungle with manatee, gators, birds, otters, and even monkeys! The entire trip is with the current! About 33 miles away is Rainbow Springs State Park... another famous and beautiful spring that offers walking trails, waterfalls, beautiful gardens, swimming and snorkeling, and paddling too. Last but not least, surrounding VP87 there are many other smaller springs each with their own unique attractions. Like bicycling? The Cross Florida Greenway (Santos Trail System) is about 15 miles from Wilderness and offers 32 miles of paved path for road cyclist and easily over 50 miles of world class mountain bike trails for anyone from beginner to expert skill level. E-Bikes are welcome. For the aspiring mountain bike experts and actual experts out there... the world-famous Vortex Trail is in this system. Bring your "A" game and lots of water. I recommend a fast cross-country bike for these trails. A down country or light trail bike is fine too. Ocala is the Horse Capital of the World! Florida Horse Park is in the Greenway 20 miles away and is great for polo matches and horse shows. Event schedules are online. The World Equestrian Center is in Ocala, 15 miles - also great for horse shows and has a couple nice restaurants. Grandview Clydesdales are about 30 miles away and they offer 1.5 to 2-hour educational tours of their famous Clydesdales Horses. I personally have not done this yet, but it looks awesome. Want a bit more hands on experience with a horse? Cactus Jack's Trail Rides is located at the Landbridge trail head about 21 miles from Wilderness. They rent E-Bikes too and conveniently they're located right at one of the trailheads along the forementioned paved bike path on the Florida Greenway. Try Zip Lining? Canyon's Zip Line and Adventure Park offers a number of canopy top Zip Line tours as well as horseback riding, kayaking, and gem mining tours. They are located 14 miles from Wilderness. The Appleton Museum of Art is 6.5 miles away. A nice place to go and beat the heat and enjoy a bit of culture. Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing is 32 miles. Looks fun and they appear to be dog on leash friendly. We love the puppies! Ocala is sweet!

River, stream, or creek camping near Clermont with campfires guide

Overview

Nestled in the heart of Central Florida, camping near Clermont lets campers reconnect with nature year-round. Lake Louisa State Park provides opportunities for swimming, fishing, and kayaking, and the diverse ecosystems at Richloam Wildlife Management Area and Withlacoochee State Forest are home to abundant wildlife, including hawks, wild hogs, and white-tailed deer. Hipcampers may immerse themselves in thrill rides and movie magic at Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort. Primitive campsites invite campers to go off the grid in the middle of the woods, while area RV resorts with full hookups and generous amenities provide modern comforts. There really is something for everyone when camping near Clermont.

Where to go

Richloam Wildlife Management Area

Part of Withlacoochee State Forest, Richloam Wildlife Management Area (WMA) spans over 50,000 acres of diverse natural habitats. Follow miles of well-shaded hiking and biking trails through pine forests, hardwood hammocks, swamps, and wetlands, spotting an abundance of native species. Wear boots, as parts of the trails can get muddy, or horseback trail rides are another way to explore the area. Richloam also allows hunting and fishing opportunities so long as campers follow local regulations for permits, licenses, and catch limits. Primitive campsites, some of which are hike-in and hike-out only, may come with picnic tables, grills, and fire rings, but campers need to bring their own water.

Lake Louisa State Park

Minutes south of Clermont, Lake Louisa State Park is primarily on the southern shores of the lake for which it’s named, but Lake Louisa isn’t the only lake here. The state park is also centered around Dixie Lake and Hammond Lake, with its main campground nestled in between. With 30- and 50-amp hookups, some RV sites are set on level concrete pads with a paved connection to the bathhouse with restrooms and hot showers. Other options include hammock camping, an equestrian primitive camp, and comfortable cabins. While here, fish for bluegill and largemouth bass, hike or bike over 20 miles of winding trails, or go paddling on Dixie Lake—kayak and canoe rentals are available.

Universal Orlando Resort

For a completely different kind of experience, visit one of the largest theme park resorts in Florida. Universal Studios Florida and Universal Islands of Adventure offer movie-themed attractions, thrill rides, and live shows, featuring such major franchises as Harry Potter, Minions, Transformers, and Jurassic Park. Make a splash at the Volcano Bay water park or indulge at Universal CityWalk. A few miles south of Universal Orlando is Walt Disney World Resort for more magical memory-making. Several RV parks are conveniently set near both resorts, accommodating travel trailers and campervans with full hookups for electricity and water, picnic areas, wifi, and clubhouses.

When to go

With its subtropical climate, Clermont weather is generally warm and sunny year-round. Peak summer months can be hot and humid, in the high 80s, with a more significant insect population. For milder weather and potentially more pleasant outdoor experiences, consider camping in the spring and fall. These shoulder seasons are also great for birdwatching, as migratory birds pass through the area. In the winter, daytime highs hover in the low 70s. From late fall to early spring, look for manatees migrating along nearby natural springs.
