Every single site here is very well maintained, except for one..makes me wonder why I was assigned it when more than half the park is empty. I'm a Thousand Trails member, but they could have done better. The site concrete pad is just crumbs, the sod fabric is exposed and in pieces, the site next to me has a trailer stored with a lot of dead plants & bushes, as well as garbage. My body is covered in bug bites (fleas, ants, I don't know), so much so that I had to get Benadryl & I won't even let the dogs out. I have some activities to attend on this side of town, otherwise I would have left after only 24hrs here. With that being said, the office staff and the neighbors are very pleasant.

If you're anything like me, you're looking for that sweet spot when you travel—a place that feels like a quiet getaway, but you don't have to drive an hour just to grab a gallon of milk. That's exactly what we found at Encore Winter Quarters Manatee RV Resort in Bradenton, Florida, and honestly, we were blown away! Location, Location, Tranquility! The location of this resort is absolutely perfect. It’s nestled in a spot that makes getting to everything a breeze. We were just a short drive from all the major shops and dining options you could ever want—think quick access to places like Ellenton Premium Outlets and the Mall at University Town Center. Plus, the beautiful Gulf Coast beaches, like Anna Maria Island and Siesta Key, are super accessible. But here's the best part: despite being so close to the buzz of Bradenton and Sarasota, the park itself is an oasis of calm. Stepping into the resort feels like leaving the city hustle behind. We didn't hear any traffic noise; just the sounds of people enjoying the beautiful 17-acre central lake. It truly offers that wonderful, tranquil beauty you want from an RV resort. Big Rig Friendly and Community Focused This place is massive! With 415 sites, there is plenty of room for all kinds of RVs, including big rigs, and the sites are full hookup with 30/50 AMP service. We appreciated the ease of maneuvering our RV into a spacious spot. It feels more like a small, well-kept community than a temporary campground. Speaking of community, the vibe here is fantastic. There's a wonderful mix of travelers passing through and long-term residents, which adds to the welcoming atmosphere. For those who are completely smitten with the area (and I don't blame you!), you'll be happy to know that they also offer vacation homes for sale. It's an excellent option if you're looking for a seasonal or annual spot to call your own in sunny Florida. Amenities to Keep You Entertained Whether you want to be active or just relax, they have you covered. We spent quite a bit of time by one of the two outdoor pools and the whirlpool/hot tub—perfect after a long day of sightseeing. The clubhouse is a hub of activity, and the resort offers a full calendar of planned events, from bingo and card playing to line dancing and movie nights. Other great amenities we used included the: Fitness Center/Gym Shuffleboard Courts Game Room (complete with a pool table) On-site Library Laundry Facilities Overall, Encore Winter Quarters Manatee is a fantastic choice for your next Florida getaway. It strikes the ideal balance between convenient access to all the fun of coastal Florida and a peaceful, beautiful resort environment. We can't wait to go back!

This is absolutely the best campground in The area! Staff is friendly, grounds are clean as well as pool and shower house areas. The two laundry are well kept air conditioned and make laundry a pleasure instead of a chore. I highly recommend this park and plan to visit on a regular basis.

This place is delightful! The staff has done a spectacular job maintaining and keeping the park so beautiful. LOVE the resort pools & clubhouse. LOVE the on-site boat/kayak ramp & it’s a beautiful, peaceful paddle too. Mgr Dawn takes great care of her guests and makes diligent efforts for her guests. This is a great park. You won’t be disappointed.

This resort is very nice and people friendly. We rent every winter at this resort since 9 years and we love it. We bought a mobile home in this resort this year. Management have change since a year. The new manager told me that they want to upgrade the resort. Hurricane has slowdown everything. Then the manager is off for few months and will be back in July. They start by cleaning the place but nothing as been renew yet. Hope it will get better by next November…
