I have seen numerous posts in the past on whether reservations are needed. There are always multiple responses from people that state something like " we have been camping xx number of years, never made reservations and always found a spot", What are those people doing in a situation like this?
We are doing this now, and I wanted to do a couple of weeks in the Ft Myers area in January. We started looking in early December and found that the reasonably priced places are full. So, if you want to spend $70-$120 a night, you won't have a problem. The other option is to call around daily to see if there have been any cancellations and be prepare to bug out to grab an empty space.
The advice I got about "Florida without reservations" was to be flexible. That was some excellent advise. If you have to be somewhere during a certain time, have that set up in advance.
