Jeanene A.'s Review on The Dyrt:

▶︎ Great Central Location and Friendly Staff
Centrally located between Eustis, Tavares, Umatilla, and Leesburg you will find this lovely RV resort on Lake Harris in Central Florida. Their busy season starts in Oct and goes through April with many guests staying throughout the months. Off season it is very easy to get a spot.
They are in the middle of a large number of renovations. All sites will have concrete pads by late 2019, New clubhouse is scheduled to break ground any day now. 
They have 7 hotel units they advertise as vintage - yet they will take you back in time to when the park first opened in the 50's. There are about 5 lodges and over 300 RV sites. Best sites seem to be up on the hill and they boast a beautiful view of Lake Harris and the 9 hole golf course. They are spacious but not very private and there are no picnic tables at sites.
At the lower portion of the resort you will find the marina, 160 high and dry racks, about 60 wet slips, current clubhouse, bathrooms, brand new laundry facility and a very small store. They have golf clubs to load if you want to check out their course, there is a nice pool, gym, and showers. The hot tub was out of commission when we were there and we were told it may be down permanently. Grounds and facilities were very clean and you can tell that fresh painting had recently been done.
With all the small town Florida vibe in the area it is not hard to find the perfect place for dinner, shopping, exploring or just taking a boat out for some fishing. Staff is very knowledgeable of the area and can refer you to many resources. In busy season they have themed pot luck dinners, live music and other activities to keep everyone entertained.
With some of the best prices in the area you really can't go wrong with a stay here - unless you are looking for luxury amenities. This home town park will make you feel like you just came home - that is what I liked about it the most.
While you are here check out some of the local trails and parks!

Lake Francis Bass Fishing

Went to fish Lake Francis for the first time in 2013. I believe it was in June 2013. Only caught some dinks, a catfish (with the senko unexpectedly) and saw 1 fat spotty roaming.
