BEST FL Keys RV resort suggestions

Looking for Great RV Resorts in FL Keys. We have stayed at Bluewater 2x but the price has gone up so much for deposit we are going to pass. Looking for other suggestions? Any news on Sugarloaf reopening? Thanks always!

    Another vote for Fiesta Key at mile marker 70


    That photo is a good example of why we don't visit the Keys for anything more than day trips. Having a neighbor almost window to window with us is just not something we're interested in just to see the same water we can see farther north with more space and a lot lower cost.

    JoeH - 4150 / night ?? Is that for $ 150 a night ?

    You are right --- didn't press the shift key hard enough !
    I've also been to Fiesta Key, but they are still $150/night for waterfront and you are packed in and don't have your own a private tiki and private dock. For the small incremental cost, I do Bluewater.

    fyi- the AVERAGE price of a hotel room in KW during the season is around $400/night ( with tax) .... some higher, some lower.So, a $150-$200 night campsite , while expensive , is not really that crazy.

    We've been going to the Keys since the early 70's and it's always been expense
  • wow jut looked at a couple of the mentioned campgrounds. 3,000 a month for the winter season. Oh Boy!!!

    Sugarloaf KOa is still an empty sandlot as of a week ago. You will find everything in the keys expensive, but you compare Bluewater to other options such as Boyd's, I feel Bluewater comes ahead. Boyd's is 4150/night and you are packed in with no privacy from your neighbor a couple of feet away/ For about the same price ( depending on the amenities of the lot) at Bluewater, you have your own private tiki and are not on top of your neighbor. To me, it's worth the few extra bucks for Bluewater.

    We enjoyed Jolly Roger in Marathon 2 years ago.


    Ditto, we've stayed there a couple of times. Not exactly a full featured resort tho with a lot of activities and such but a good CG right on the water.
