I cant tell you much about the timeshare section there, but the last time we were there (+5yrs ago), that was a very small portion of River Ranch. My parents rented an RV lot for 3-4 mos every winter for over 15 years to stay in their motorhome at River Ranch. The winter after my Mom was placed into a care home my dad and sister flew down to get rid of the things dad had in storage down there. I'm not sure if they stayed in an efficiency unit of the motel on site or if it was a timeshare but they had a kitchen. My sister thought it was nice. There were lots of activities every day. It is a huge property, but out in the middle of nowhere. It was a good 20-30 minute drive into Lake Wales for shopping, dining or medical care. We drove down from Kissimmee a couple of times to visit Mom & Dad but could never understand why they chose that place to stay, it must have been the price!
