Florilow Oaks is
located on U.S. 301, just
about 2 miles north of Bushnell in Central
Florida. The setting is rural with many beautiful
oak trees and a small pond. It was purchased in 1984 by
a group of members of
Loners on Wheels
for the purpose
of making it a park for loners.
It is operated by a Park Manager under the
direction of a Board of Directors consisting of nine
elected members. A maintenance man also resides on
the premises. We now welcome loners of any travel
club and it has become a popular meeting place for many
loners who spend their winters in Florida.
We are a corporation made up of single individuals
who have purchased shares of stock in the corporation
that owns the park. To learn more about the
concept of this unique park, I suggest that you
visit us and
learn first hand what it is all about.
Reservations are not necessary from May 1 through
October and there are always loners here, as many of us
live here year round.
Our campgrounds rental sites are a very important
part of our park and we have accommodations for both
long term and short term camping. All our rental
sites have water and electricity, but in the winter
season our full hook-up sites are held for reservations
of a least four (4) months. We have a dump station
available to all our
campers.
We are very proud of our nice recreation hall, clean
restrooms and showers, a laundry and black topped roads
throughout the park. The activities in the Park
are many and varied. Parties, pot lucks, bingo,
crafts, games, cards, or just meeting with friends are
among them. Outdoor activities include
shuffleboard and horseshoes. The roads throughout
the park are great for biking or walking. You may
also enjoy
bowling, golfing, fishing, dancing and swimming on a
regular basis as you only have to travel a few miles for
these events. Yes, we do like pets and have a dog
walking area. All pets must be leashed.
The town of Bushnell is the county seat of
Sumter County
and although not large, offers about any type of
professional service and business you might need.
It has a shopping center and there are larger towns of Leesburg in
Lake County and Inverness in
Citrus County only about 20 miles away that
have full service medical facilities and other services
to fill your needs. We have 24 hour emergency
and ambulance service available also.
You are always welcome to stop in at Florilow Oaks
any time of
the year. In the busy winter season it is best to
contact us ahead of time as knowing your approximate
time of arrival, the size and type of your rig makes it
easier for us to have something available for you.
We are looking forward to seeing you here in the near
future. |
