Campgrounds near Florida City
Florida City sits at the southern tip of mainland Florida, immediately north of the main entrance to Everglades National Park and roughly 45 minutes from downtown Miami. The town functions as the last full-service stop before the park, with fuel, groceries, and RV supplies concentrated along US-1 and the Florida Turnpike terminus. Most RV travelers use it as a base for the Everglades, Biscayne National Park, and the drive down to the Florida Keys.
The area's campground inventory is a mix of private RV resorts and one in-park option. Southern Comfort RV Resort and Goldcoaster RV Resort operate in Florida City itself, The Boardwalk is a nearby resort community, and Miami Everglades RV Resort sits just to the north. For an in-park stay, Long Pine Key sits inside Everglades National Park, about seven miles from the main entrance near Homestead.
Full-hookup sites are the norm at the private resorts; in-park camping is more basic and seasonal.
Things to do near Florida City
Everglades National Park is the primary draw. The Ernest F. Coe Visitor Center is minutes from town, and the main park road leads to Royal Palm (Anhinga and Gumbo Limbo trails), Pa-hay-okee Overlook, and eventually Flamingo on Florida Bay. Airboat operators line the Tamiami Trail (US-41) north of town, outside the park boundary.
Biscayne National Park, mostly water, is reached from Convoy Point in nearby Homestead and offers boat tours, snorkeling, and paddling over shallow reef and mangrove habitat. Homestead Bayfront Park has a swimming lagoon and boat ramp.
Florida City is also the natural launch point for a day trip or multi-day extension to Key Largo and the Upper Keys, roughly an hour south on US-1, with dive charters, glass-bottom boats, and John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park.

South Florida runs on a dry season and a wet season rather than four traditional seasons. The dry season, roughly December through April, is peak RV time: lower humidity, few mosquitoes, and the highest bird and wildlife concentrations in the Everglades. This is also when in-park camping operates. Long Pine Key Campground is open seasonally from November through May and closed the rest of the year.
The wet season runs June through October and overlaps Atlantic hurricane season, which peaks in August and September. Expect afternoon rain storms and heavy mosquito activity in the park during the wet summer season. Many park programs and some concessioner services scale back or pause.
Shoulder months (November and May) can be good value: warm days, thinner crowds, and most services still open. Private RV resorts in Florida City stay open year-round, but occupancy swings sharply with the season.

Ryan R. - Nov 2025
I recently had the pleasure of renting Mark and Cyndi's RV for a two-week vacation across Florida, and I cannot recommend them enough! The entire process, from the initial inquiry to returning the RV, was seamless, professional, and friendly. Here's what made my experience exceptional: Communication: Mark and Cyndi were prompt, clear, and informative in their communication. They made sure I knew everything I needed to before embarking on my adventure and were readily available to answer any questions I had during my trip. The RV: Their RV was in pristine condition and exceptionally clean. It was evident that they take great pride in maintaining their vehicle. The RV was spacious, comfortable, and equipped with all the essential amenities, making my vacation feel like a true "home away from home." Orientation and Support: Upon pickup, Mark and Cyndi provided a thorough orientation of the RV, ensuring I was comfortable with all its features and operations. They also provided a comprehensive guidebook and videos, which were extremely helpful during the trip. Additionally, they were always just a phone call away whenever I needed assistance or had questions.

How to book a campsite
Private resorts in and around Florida City, including Southern Comfort RV Resort, Goldcoaster RV Resort, The Boardwalk, and Miami Everglades RV Resort, take reservations directly through their own websites or by phone. Winter is the tightest window: snowbird traffic can fill full-hookup sites weeks or months ahead, and monthly stays are common from January through March. Booking well in advance for any January-through-Easter arrival is recommended.
Inside Everglades National Park, Long Pine Key Campground does not offer reservations through Recreation.gov. Reservations are handled by Flamingo Adventures, the park's concessionaire, and can typically be made up to a year in advance, with some sites also set aside for first-come, first-served campers. The maximum stay is 14 days at one campground and 30 days total for the year during the tourist season.
What to expect on the ground
Private RV resorts near Florida City generally offer full hookups (water, sewer, 30/50-amp electric), paved or gravel pads, laundry, and pools. Sites tend to be close together in resort layouts rather than wooded and private. Cell coverage and cable or Wi-Fi are widely available in town.
Long Pine Key, inside the national park, is a different experience. There are no hookups, but a dump station is available. The campground features flush restrooms with free hot showers, potable water, and a dump station for RV waste disposal. Terrain is flat with limited shade, and generators can operate from 8 AM to 8 PM, with quiet hours from 10 PM to 6 AM.
Mosquitoes and biting flies are a fact of life south of Homestead, especially near dusk and after summer rains. Bring repellent, screens in good repair, and expect strong sun, salt air near the coast, and heavy afternoon downpours in the wet season.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Florida City, FL
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Florida City, FL?
RV rental in Florida City is affordable, especially compared to coastal Miami pricing just 35 miles north. On RVezy, you typically see travel trailers starting around $90 to $130 per night, Class C motorhomes from $150 to $230 per night, and Class A rigs from $250 and up. Since hosts set their own rates, you can filter by price to find a cheap RV rental in Florida City that fits your budget. Booking midweek and traveling during the May to October wet season usually unlocks the lowest rates, while peak snowbird season (January through March) commands premium pricing. Pro tip: bundle your Everglades trip with a weeklong rental, since many hosts offer discounted weekly rates at checkout.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Florida%20City,%20FloridaWhat license do I need to rent an RV in Florida City?
Good news: a standard driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Florida City. Florida does not require a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) or any special RV endorsement for personal motorhomes or travel trailers used recreationally, regardless of size. You'll need to be at least 25 years old to book on RVezy, and we verify your ID through the platform during the booking process, so there's no DMV paperwork on your end. Visiting from outside the United States? Bring your home-country license plus an International Driving Permit (IDP) and you're set. Most first-time renters are pleasantly surprised by how simple the requirements are, leaving you free to focus on planning your Everglades adventure.
flhsmv.gov/driver-licenses-id-cards/what-to-bring/What protection is included when I rent an RV in Florida City?
Every RVezy booking in Florida City automatically includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can drive off with real peace of mind. The protection plan covers most damage to the vehicle during your trip, and during checkout you choose the coverage tier that matches your comfort level (more coverage means a lower deductible). Hosts do not pick your protection level; you do, which puts you in control. That matters in South Florida, where sudden afternoon storms and the occasional low-hanging mangrove branch on Card Sound Road are part of the adventure. Book with confidence knowing you are covered before you even hit US-1.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if I need to cancel my Florida City RV rental?
Booking is low-risk because RVezy (not the host) sets the cancellation policy, and it includes a money-back grace period right after you book. That means if your plans change shortly after confirmation, you have a built-in window to cancel and get refunded. Beyond the grace period, refund eligibility depends on how far out from your trip you cancel. The cancellation policy is not displayed on individual listings because it is a platform-wide RVezy process, not host-specific. For the full breakdown, check the RVezy Help Center, or message support before booking if you want to walk through your scenario.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Florida City RV rental?
Yes, plenty of hosts welcome four-legged co-pilots on a pet-friendly RV rental in Florida City. Toggle the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy to see eligible listings, and message the host to confirm any details like pet fees. Once you are rolling, leashed pets are allowed in Everglades National Park frontcountry campgrounds (including Long Pine Key and Flamingo) and in parking areas, though not on most trails or in wilderness/backcountry sites. Homestead Bayfront Park and Biscayne National Park mainland visitor area both allow leashed dogs too. Pro tip: South Florida heat is no joke, so plan walks for sunrise or sunset, carry extra water, and never leave pets in a parked RV without AC running.
nps.gov/ever/planyourvisit/pets.htmCan the RV be delivered to my campsite in Florida City?
Yes, RV delivery in Florida City is one of the most popular options on RVezy, especially for first-timers who would rather skip driving a big rig down US-1. Many hosts deliver the motorhome or travel trailer directly to your campsite at Long Pine Key, Flamingo Campground, Miami Everglades RV Resort, or even a private driveway, then level it, hook up water and power, and give you a full walkthrough before leaving. Use the Delivery filter on the search page and check each listing for the delivery radius and fee. It is the simplest way to start your Florida City RV trip, just show up, unpack, and enjoy.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Florida%20City,%20FloridaHow far can I drive from Florida City on an RV trip?
Florida City is a perfect launchpad for an RV road trip from Florida City in nearly any direction. Key Largo is about 25 miles south on US-1, Marathon is roughly 75 miles, and Key West is about 125 miles down the Overseas Highway. Heading the other way, the Flamingo area of Everglades National Park is 38 miles southwest, Miami Beach is 35 miles north, Naples (via Tamiami Trail/US-41) is roughly 105 miles, and Fort Lauderdale is about 60 miles. Each host sets their own mileage policy, with many offering 100 to 150 free miles per night and some offering RV rental with unlimited mileage, which is gold for a Keys road trip. Filter by mileage in your search to match the trip you are planning.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Florida%20City,%20FloridaWhere are the best campgrounds near Florida City?
You have great choices for best campgrounds near Florida City. Long Pine Key Campground inside Everglades National Park sits about 12 miles west and offers quiet, shaded sites with potable water (seasonal operation, typically mid-November through May). Flamingo Campground, 38 miles down the main park road, has electric hookup sites and Florida Bay views. Miami Everglades RV Resort, about 8 miles north in Homestead, has full hookups, a pool, and year-round access. Boardwalk RV Resort sits along the route toward the Keys. Pro tip: Everglades National Park reservations open six months in advance on Recreation.gov, and prime winter dates routinely sell out within minutes.
recreation.gov/camping/gateways/2733When is the best time to visit Florida City in an RV?
The sweet spot for RV camping in Florida City is mid-November through April, when daytime highs sit comfortably in the upper 70s to low 80s Fahrenheit, humidity drops, mosquitoes back off, and Everglades wildlife viewing peaks as alligators, wading birds, and manatees concentrate around shrinking water holes. This is also when Long Pine Key Campground inside Everglades National Park is typically open (mid-November to May). May through October is the wet season with daily afternoon thunderstorms, highs near 90F, intense humidity, and the June 1 to November 30 Atlantic hurricane season, but you will find the cheapest RV rental in Florida City rates of the year. Pro tip: February and March are the gold standard, warm, dry, and bug-light.
weather.gov/mfl/I have never driven an RV before. Will I be okay in Florida City?
You will do great. Florida City is one of the friendlier places in the country to start out, especially if it is your first time renting an RV. The roads around town are flat, wide, and well-marked, with US-1 and Florida's Turnpike offering straightforward routes north and south. Every RVezy host provides a hands-on orientation at pickup covering driving basics, slide-outs, water and power hookups, the propane system, and the dump process, and they are reachable by phone or message throughout your trip. If big-rig driving still feels intimidating, choose a Class B campervan or a smaller travel trailer, or book delivery so the host parks and sets it up for you. Pro tip: practice a few right turns in a large empty parking lot before merging onto the Turnpike.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat happens if something goes wrong with the RV during my trip?
You are never on your own. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, covering common issues like flat tires, dead batteries, lockouts, towing, and fuel delivery anywhere in Florida, including remote stretches of Tamiami Trail through Big Cypress and the Overseas Highway through the Keys. For mechanical or systems issues (AC, generator, slide-outs), message your host directly through the RVezy app, they know their RV best and usually respond within minutes. RVezy customer support is also available before, during, and after your trip if you need help escalating anything. Pro tip: save the roadside assistance number to your phone before pulling out of the driveway and snap a photo of your RV's VIN, it speeds up any service call dramatically.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take a Florida City RV rental into the Keys or to other states?
Yes, the Florida Keys are the most popular route from Florida City, and most hosts happily allow trips down US-1 to Key Largo, Marathon, and Key West. Interstate travel to Georgia, Alabama, or up the East Coast is also commonly permitted, just confirm with your host before booking by sending a quick message from the listing page. One important note: travel into Mexico is not allowed on any RVezy rental because insurance and protection coverage stop at the US border. Pro tip: the stretch from Florida City to Key Largo crosses Jewfish Creek Bridge on US-1, which is RV-friendly at standard heights, with no clearance concerns for typical rentals.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityHow much should I budget for fuel on a Florida City RV trip?
Fuel is one of the easier-to-budget pieces of a Florida City RV trip. Most Class C motorhomes average 8 to 10 MPG, Class A rigs 6 to 8 MPG, campervans 14 to 18 MPG, and travel trailers depend on your tow vehicle (usually 10 to 14 MPG combined). South Florida gas prices typically run slightly below the national average, with stations clustered along US-1, Krome Avenue, and Florida's Turnpike service plazas. For a typical week-long loop from Florida City to Flamingo, Key Largo, and back (around 250 miles), budget roughly $90 to $150 in fuel for a Class C. Pro tip: fill up in Florida City or Homestead before heading into the Keys, prices climb noticeably once you cross the bridge to Key Largo.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book a campground near Florida City?
Earlier than you think, especially for the winter snowbird season. Everglades National Park's Long Pine Key and Flamingo campgrounds open reservations on Recreation.gov exactly six months in advance, and prime January through March weekends sell out within hours of release. For private parks like Miami Everglades RV Resort, Boardwalk, or Southern Comfort, aim to book 3 to 6 months ahead for winter and 2 to 4 weeks ahead for summer. Florida State Parks (including nearby John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park in Key Largo) use ReserveAmerica and open 11 months in advance, set a calendar reminder for the morning your dates open. Pro tip: weekday arrivals are dramatically easier to score than Friday or Saturday check-ins.
recreation.gov/camping/gateways/2733What are driving conditions like around Florida City?
Driving conditions around Florida City are about as RV-friendly as Florida gets, with flat terrain, sea-level elevations, and wide highways with generous shoulders. US-1 south to the Keys and Florida's Turnpike north toward Miami both handle big rigs easily. Watch for sudden, intense afternoon thunderstorms from June through October (pull over and wait them out, they often pass in 20 to 40 minutes), king-tide flooding on low-lying roads after heavy rain, and the occasional wildlife crossing on the Main Park Road in Everglades National Park at dawn or dusk. Avoid driving large Class A motorhomes through downtown Miami; stick to the Turnpike. Pro tip: the speed limit on the Overseas Highway drops frequently, set cruise control modestly and enjoy the views.
weather.gov/mfl/What amenities will I find at campgrounds near Florida City?
Campground amenities near Florida City range from basic to resort-style, so you can pick what fits your trip. Private parks like Miami Everglades RV Resort and Southern Comfort offer full hookups (30/50-amp electric, water, sewer), pools, laundry, Wi-Fi, and dump stations on-site. Everglades National Park's Long Pine Key has potable water, restrooms, and a dump station but no individual hookups, while Flamingo Campground offers some electric sites plus a dump station, bathhouses, and an amphitheater. Drinking water is widely available at Homestead-area parks and most Keys campgrounds. Pro tip: top off fresh water and dump tanks at your home base before heading into the national park, where services are limited and lines at the Flamingo dump station can get long on Sunday checkout mornings.
nps.gov/ever/planyourvisit/camping.htmWhat equipment comes with a typical Florida City RV rental?
Most RV rentals in Florida City come road-ready with everything you need for an immediate trip. Expect a full kitchen (fridge, stove, microwave, sink), a bathroom with shower and toilet, sleeping for anywhere from 2 to 10 depending on the rig, climate control (essential for South Florida heat), a generator on most motorhomes, and seatbelts for every traveling passenger. Many hosts include sheets, towels, kitchen basics, outdoor chairs, and a freshwater hose; some include bikes, kayaks, or beach gear, perfect for Biscayne Bay or the Keys. Wi-Fi and a TV are common but not universal. Pro tip: check each listing's amenity list carefully and message the host if you need something specific like generator-powered AC for boondocking.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Florida%20City,%20FloridaWhat add-ons and options can I get with a Florida City RV rental?
Hosts offer a range of add-ons to customize your motorhome rental in Florida City. Common extras include linen and towel packages, kitchen kits, generator usage, portable grills, bikes, kayaks and paddleboards (great for Biscayne Bay and the Keys), camping chairs, and pet cleaning fees. Mileage policies vary by host: many include 100 to 150 free miles per night with overage fees per mile, and some offer unlimited miles, ideal for a Keys-and-Everglades loop. Pickup is typically at the host's address, with delivery available for an additional fee. Pro tip: bundle delivery, generator hours, and a linen kit together when you message the host, many will discount the package.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Florida%20City,%20FloridaHow does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
Payment on RVezy is straightforward and fully online, with no cash and no awkward handoffs. You pay your rental total securely through the platform when you book, and a refundable security deposit is held (not charged) on your card before pickup. The deposit amount is set by each host and shown clearly on the listing. As long as you return the RV in the same condition, with no damage and tanks handled per the host's instructions, the hold is released after the trip ends. Pro tip: take dated photos and a quick video walk-around at both pickup and drop-off in Florida City, it is the easiest way to protect your deposit and keep things smooth.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksHow should I prepare for South Florida heat and storms in an RV?
With a little prep, Florida City's heat and afternoon storms are manageable, and honestly part of the fun. Run your RV's roof AC on shore power whenever possible (campground 30/50-amp hookups handle it easily); the generator is your backup at boondocking sites. Park with the door facing east when you can to keep the afternoon sun off the main living wall. From June through October, plan driving and sightseeing for mornings, since those daily 2 to 5 PM thunderstorms are intense but brief. Stock plenty of water, bug spray (DEET or picaridin), and reef-safe sunscreen. Pro tip: download the FEMA app and monitor NOAA forecasts before your trip, hurricane watches in South Florida give you days of notice, so flexibility is your friend.
