We stayed here for three months that turned into 100 days. We would definitely return! Friendly people, Clean showers and bathrooms, swimming pool and hot tub, activities (both at the campground and adjacent park)! Great areas to walk our four legged camper!
Sites are grass, large, level. We hooked up to cable with a modem for WiFi.
After our stay we would not hesitate to stay at another Encore Park!

The staff was very pleasant. It was very thoughtful to escort me across the street and help get my rig situated on the site. It is unfortunate the County Road running through the middle of the campground was more of a heavily traveled highway and main thoroughfare than a county road. We stayed in the wrong part of the campground and all of the amenities were across the busy street. The tallest wall legally permitted should be built between the campground and that road. I would rather face a large, blank wall than be subjected to tractor-trailer rigs engine braking, high wattage subwoofers thumping through all hours and motorcycles driving loudly by with stereos designed to loudly overcome the engine noise. If there were a system with guidelines on qualifying to use the term Resort in a business name, this street alone would disqualify the campground. I certainly do not consider any of the first row sites on this street to be premium or elite and I would not pay $10 a night to stay on any of them again.

This campground was great for us since it wasn't packed and very peaceful. We liked how there was publix right around the corner 2 minutes away and Walmart was only about 12 minutes away.

The street is definitely loud if you stay in the first row of premium, but other than that, we have no complaints and thoroughly enjoyed our time at Southern Palms.

Lake Eustis is beautiful at sunrise, and I highly recommend checking it out!

Part of Thousand Trails. With nearly 1000 spots, this place about doubled the size of anywhere else we have stayed. In many ways, it seemed like staying in a trailer court or apartment complex with your nearest neighbor only a few feet away on either side. That said, I still enjoyed the park, the people camping there, and the many big rigs to take a gander at. Though not really "in nature", one can drive to one of the many nearby lakes and take in some very pretty views. Also close to quaint shops in both Eustis and Mt. Dora--I'd especially recommend Barrel of Books and Games in Mt. Dora. In addition, not a bad drive to Orlando and surrounding areas.

We were pleasantly surprised to learn there was a Thousand Trails/Encore RV Resort near Mount Dora, Florida. The campground is located in Eustis, FL. We have friends who recently moved to Mount Dora from Hawaii so the location was perfect for us.

The good:

1) easy in and out. Clearly marked sites, paved roads. Our rig also serves as our car so this is important to us.
2) you are escorted to your site.
3) sites are pre-assigned. No need to worry about someone snagging your site when out and about.
4) Level site.
5) Electric good. We needed to use our 50 AMP to 30 AMP adapter (make sure you have one of these!) since we were sharing an electric post with someone else who was using the 30 AMP receptacle.
6) Water pressure - good.
7) Everything you could need is nearby - Winn Dixie, Publix, CVS, Wal-Mart, restaurants, etc.
8) Internet was dependable and steady (averages 7-8 MB/sec). We have AT&T Very Blue Plan with Nomad Internet and a NetGear Nighthawk modem.
9) We also have Verizon cell phone service - speeds on our iPhone 12 Pro Max 5G’s was 100+ MB/sec!
10) Fast, clean toll roads to Orlando. We bought a Sun Pass sticker for the windshield and set up an online account - very easy to do.

The not so good:

1) Laundry room needs a deep cleaning and an upgrade. We decided to take our laundry to Spin City Laundry up the road. Open 24 hours and super clean. Plenty of free parking. New machines, too.
2) Noticeable red ant hills on the grass site, especially near water/electric receptacle. Fortunately, not an issue but we are watching closely.
3) Huge potholes near dumpsters fill with muddy water. We enter/exit the other way to avoid.

Stayed at an Elite site. All grass with ant mounds aplenty. Site was large but no picnic table. Stayed here to be close to Mt. Dora for the Renninger’s Antiques Extravaganza. The County Road can be noisy at night but it didn’t wake us.

We stayed through Thousand Trails. The park is very clean and everyone working there is friendly and helpful. It’s crowded but the sites aren’t really tight. We would recommend in fact we’re coming back for another two weeks. My Dora is nearby and a great place to walk, shop and eat.
Cell coverage is for Data SIM cards. We use a Pepwave router and roof Antenna and AT&T was really fast and Verizon was awful. I also have a Verizon jet pack with no booster and it was slower than the sim in the pepwave.

We loved it here. All the small downtown areas near by are great. Staff is amazing. So much so we already booked our return visit. Starlink was pretty bad here.

Overall a decent campground to stay out, spaces are pretty good size, multiple laundry sites, and big enough for good walks. Few downsides, pool closes at 6pm, which kind of makes the hot tub irrelevant, no dog part, location is pretty far away from larger cities or points of interest. There's a small town right next to the campground that offers a Publix, lake for fishing, some restaurants, etc, but other than the necessities, everything else is about an hour away. Also, there's no security here or gate to protect against people coming in and stealing (which has happened to us)
