Rails End Mobile Home and RV Park is a great location in Central Florida. The area has much to offer. It is no more than a couple of hours from the beaches on the Gulf side or Atlantic. It is close to The Villages, restaurants, and Village Squares full of music, theatres, and fun. There are also many golf courses and lakes for recreation. The Harris Chain of Lakes to name one. Rails End is an established Park that residents have been coming to for years. The RV'rs come back year after year because we are a family here. We keep in touch even when they go back North. Join the Rails End family by contacting us today!
From I-75 and SR 44 (Exit 329) go East 7.6 miles. Turn left into park at the Red Caboose.
We have so enjoyed this park... everything is clean, very well kept up, lots of activities to keep you active if that's what you are looking for...and if not, just relax and enjoy the sunshine. It's a pleasant mix of year round residents and snow birds. Centrally located to make days trips convenient in every direction. We will definitely be back next year.
Rails End MHC is a smaller 55+ year old community...about 55 permanent residents and 50 RV lots. Located at Wildwood, FL with the Villages surrounding it. The residents here are a great bunch of folks.
We've been here for 3 "snowbird" seasons, and looked forward to being here for the Winters.
We could afford the lot lease at $495, we were surprised when it went to $530, but were shocked when they increased it to $650 this year (New management company...Island Communities making a killing). 22.6% increase hurts fixed income folks; social security increase is only 3.2% for 2024. Most likely we'll have to sell our trailer. Current management is very hard to contact.
My wife and I stayed here for 3 nights in December 2022. If I had written an immediate review, I would have given them 5 stars. People were great, staff was good, and we were welcomed and safe. Fast forward to July 2023 when we receive a collection notice in the mail saying we didn't pay. We were shocked. Campers don't stay at campgrounds without paying before they park. My wife called the collection people and was told if we couldn't produce a receipt, we had to pay (again) This campground did not take credit cards and we thought we had paid cash and no we wouldn't have kept the receipt after 8 months. As my wife was getting ready to pay them AGAIN, I asked her to check out bank account to see if we had written a check.... Low and behold we did. My wife called the collection company back, but they wouldn't talk with her, so she emailed them our proof but still they didn't call back and apologize. We haven't heard anything from anyone, but at least now we have proof. What is more a shame, we would have visited them again this December, but I'm guessing now we will find someplace else to go.
