    I've paddled the Emerald Cut a few times now. Initially I didn't like the idea of paying to launch…read moremy own paddleboard. However, it's only $10 now that I have my own life jacket (saving me additional cost of $5 to use one of theirs, as required). Well worth the low cost for some soul-enriching, communing with nature. I have never made a reservation. I normally arrive around 10:30, most recently on a Friday. Parked for free on Baptist Camp Rd. Just a bit of a walk from there with my inflated paddleboard, but I don't mind the extra exercise. You can unload your stuff closer, if preferable. There are port-a-potties available. You can count on there being a line in the check-in office. Various recreation supplies are available there for purchase. The process moves reasonably enough. A reservation will guarantee your entrance, however, and possibly aide quicker personal info collection. I always plan to do the Emerald Cut in roughly 3 hours round-trip, allowing myself several stops to enjoy the surroundings. You do run into (quite literally at times) novice paddlers along the way, which can be a bit tricky, yet not a real nuisance for me. In general, there's friendliness along the waterway. Slighty rowdy, party vibes in some spots, but also opportunities for solace and zen in various nooks. Encountering wildlife, fragrant elderberry, and other captivating flora along this stretch is always gratifying. It's a popular recreation destination for good reason.

    Many tourists don't realize Florida is home to stunning crystal-clear spring rivers--perfect for…read moreswimming, kayaking, and tubing aka "hidden gems". My Hubby and I love kayaking, so we booked an excursion months in advance for Rock Springs through TripAdvisor. Our Tour Operator was Get Up And Go Kayaking located at Kings Landing in Apopka, FL. I LOVE saying Apopka ;) The good news: Apopka is a quick 1 hour drive from Orlando. Make sure you don't miss the turn to King's Landing, because the entrance is located on a narrow dirt road. You must drive past Kelly Park (which fills up fast). There is a Park Ranger located here who will guide you to King's Landing. As you get closer and if you see a parking spot, grab it! Check in is located in the Cabin like office where you will have to sign a waiver. If you do not want to take a clear bottom, guided Kayak tour, you can either rent or BYO Kayak versus taking a semi private, clear, guided kayak tour. NOTE: ONLY use their Sunscreen/lotion which is provided at no cost. It protects the wildlife and the Springs. We wanted the full experience as we have previously enjoyed renting clear Kayaks. Our guide for the morning was: Megan, who was fantastic! Full of energy, information and helpful tidbits about the Springs and its human and wildlife inhabitants. Our group was small and capped at 10. We paddled through both narrow and open stretches, and stopped to swim in the warm, crystal-clear water. One highlight was a banyan tree with an 8-foot natural "jump hole"--such a cool experience! It was a serene, memorable day, and fun fact: this is the very spring featured in the Visit Orlando commercials! Yeah, definitely take a day away from crowded Orlando to relax and enjoy Mother Nature! You will Thank Me ;)

    I took my 2015 Jeep Wrangler, my flat toad vehicle to have the Demco Stay and Play Duo brake…read moresystem installed. Camping World had the system on sale online a couple hundred dollars less than many smaller RV companies, which they honored in store. Their installation quote was comparable to others I received. Dillan service representative and Alberto the installation tech were very professional and completed the work on time as promise. After getting home I noticed the activation light wasn't working and notified Dillan and he scheduled me an appointment and Alberto discovered a small rely needed to be replaced. I had to wait only about 45 minutes for the repair and there was no charge for them to replace the non operational part. In conclusion I am very happy with the new brake system and service completed on my Vehicle.

    These people are horrible bloodthirsty, vampires. I bought a travel trailer. There almost a year…read moreago I just lost my wife and my 3 daughters, and I was in a very bad frame of mind, I had to leave the house I was in, so I went to get a camper to live in. Temporarily, not only did the salesman lie to me. He stole from me as well. Said, I was paying 7% finance for 5 years after 8 months. When I was a little better, I was reading my paperwork. And I found out that I was paying 14% for a 180 months. That is, some major BS road. Runner financial is garbage along with Camping World. Do not do business with these people. You will regret it. They are liars and thieves. If I could do anything about it now, I would and I would take that camper and shove it up their f****** a** sideways garbage place to deal with garbage place to finance garbage all the way around, they deserve to live in a dump and be taken advantage of just like they take advantage of people The most horrible individuals I ever had to do business with was Camping World in Summerfield, Florida and road runner financial. They don't give a d*** They want that quick commission, and they don't care. If you come back or not, they will take advantage of you and rape you and your wallet. Trust me, do not do business with these people. I am only trying to help others.
