I stayed at the Lodge/Motel. It was quiet but my room a/c smelled like urine. We didn’t know the grill was closed Monday & Tuesday so we drove to 30 min to town. The closest restaurants were also closed Monday and Tuesday, even the food trucks. Prepare to drive 30 min for gas or food or bring your own.

Great resort to stay at on Lake Kissimmee. Was there Bass fishing for 3 days last week. They have a lodge, RV Campground, and a few cabins. Boat ramp is also on location.

My husband and I Stayed in the lodge for two nights. You definitely need to rent a golf cart so you can get around the whole complex. We ate at Cajan Cowboy restaurant on property three times. The owner was very nice and the food was fabulous. We had a cheeseburger, fish sandwich, onion rings, gator bites and breakfast so we ate there at least three times. We went to the bar at the Corner one night and played bingo and had a bite to eat. It was fun. The room was very clean and spacious. The camp store had a The camp store had a lot of things in it to choose from. All the people that work at camp Mack are absolutely wonderful and a lot of fun. Everybody is very friendly and waves to you. It’s old Florida! Great place to go and relax. We also took the airboat ride that they have available on property and it was a lot of fun too. We definitely will be back. Thank you CampMac

The staff here a really friendly and are there to help you have a great time. We got the premium shaded rv site which is a must! We saw some of the other sites and they were quite exposed and hot. Our site had lots of trees and was cool enough to sit outside. The pool was well maintained and very enjoyable.

RV camped for the weekend during a fishing tournament. Great fun at the weigh-in. Many 7-8lb bass. Winner was over 11lbs. The property is quiet and clean. Office staff are outstanding. The camp store and food truck have everything you need for the weekend. Plan ahead. It's a long way to the dollar store but you pass it on the way in. Cell service is non-existent on some carriers but you can purchase Airlink for a minimal fee. We enjoyed our golf cart rental! The place is huge and fun to ride around. Water levels were low. Beware the ramp drop-off, clearly posted. The ramp nearer the office is better at low water. Just a pleasant, chill, weekend with a full hookup site.
