## Overview

Nelson’s Outdoor Resort, formerly known as Nelson’s Fish Camp, has been a Central Florida camping and fishing destination since the 1950’s. Nelson's Outdoor Resort is set along the banks of the Ocklawaha River on State Route 42, near Lake Griffin on the Harris Chain of Lakes, Silver Springs, the Ocala National Forest, and much more. Enjoy Central Florida relaxation & recreation, from sunrise to sunset and beyond!

The Ocklawaha River and the Harris Chain of Lakes are prized for their fishing opportunities. Get out on your boat or enjoy fishing from our dock for Specks, Perch, largemouth bass, and more! Away from the water, there are plenty more outdoor activities for the sportsman to enjoy.

This 3,400-acre wetland restoration area is right across the street. It offers visitors 20 miles of hiking trails, horseback riding, wildlife viewing, bicycling, and picnicking. Bank fishing is available at the canal at the western edge of the property.
