    Default Rec for local outfitter near Kissimmee

    Looking for a recommendation for an outfitter that is local (I.e., not a big chain) in the Kissimmee area. I'll be there for the weekend with some time to kill.

    Not real close, but Travel Country in altamonte is the only one I know of. Not a big place as I recall, but it's been a long time since I was there....

    There's a bass pro shops in orlando.

    Want to go to the Tampa Bay area, which is about 90 miles? There is a good outfitter in Pinellas Park. They do diving equipment and camping/backpacking equipment among other things. I bought a backpack and some equipment from them for my 2016 LASH. Check out their website.

    REI has a store in Orlando now as well. Not a real big place and not to far from travel country.
