Total Heresy, or Other Campgrounds in the WDW Area

OK, I admit it I am hooked on Fort Wilderness.  But, I know there are times when Fort Wilderness is not an option, so here are the campgrounds within a reasonable distance to the Disney complex.  The descriptions and maps below are from the websites of the campgrounds.  I have not stayed at any of them so I can't hazard an opinion.  Additionally they are listed in alphabetical order, rather than the order of any preference.

Bill Frederick Park and Pool at Turkey Lake Located along the shores of Turkey Lake, Bill Frederick Park is a beautiful, scenic park that covers one hundred and seventy eight acres. Ideal for nature lovers, the park was developed to provide family recreation in a nature preserve setting. Thousands of visitors annually enjoy the many passive and active amenities that the park offers.  Another dimension to this unique park is its 36 site Recreational Vehicle Campground visited by guests from all over the continental United states, Canada and occasionally tourists from Europe and Australia traveling in rental RV’s.  Reservations for camping and boating, cabins or picnic pavilions rentals can be made over the phone or in person. We accept Visa, Master Card, and American Express.   For more information, call 407.246.4486.

Because it is a new campground trees, shrubs and other native vegetation were planted to restore the area to a natural landscape. Little shade is provided from the trees since they are in the early growing stages. The sites provide beautiful lake views and the open vistas offer easy wildlife viewing.

Maximum RV length = 115 ft.
