Florida Keys RV Parks in Winter

Do RV parks in Florida require you to stay a min. of 30 days?

We're newbies. We just purchased our first 5th wheel and are planning to winter (Jan-Feb 2020) in Florida. We joined Good Sam and started looking for parks to book. We wanted to stay in the keys for 1-2 weeks. From looking at the list of parks on Good Sam they only seem to offer 30 rentals. Are there parks with weekly rates in winter? We'd like to spend a week in Daytona, 1-2 weeks in Miami, 1-2 weeks in the keys, 1-2 weeks in Ft. Meyers, 1-2 weeks in Tampa, 1-2 weeks in Panama Beach.

What about COE/BLM or Nat'l parks? We'd appreciate any input and ideas from more seasoned campers. Thanks

  • FL has no BLM camping... I think 1 COE park outside of Ft Myers... very nice.
    Tampa area you might be OK with 1-2 weeks... Daytona I went to for Christmas one year for maybe 5 days. Tampa area may be 25 miles out, but a nice drive to the beaches and lots of other things.

    I have been to the Keys and you might get lucky, but usually are booked a year in advance. I would think Panama Beach is "off-season" during Jan/Feb, so you might be OK there.

    Congratulations on your new rig.
