Camping near Margate, Florida
Margate sits in central Broward County, inland from Fort Lauderdale and about ten miles from the Atlantic coast. The city works as a practical base for RV travelers who want quick access to South Florida beaches, the Everglades buffer zone, and the Miami metro without paying beachfront rates or navigating oceanfront traffic.
RV options in the immediate area lean toward private resorts with full hookups, paved pads, and pool decks. Aztec RV Resort- Motorcoach caters specifically to Class A coaches on a gated, canal-lined property, while Sunshine Holiday MHCC RV and Camping Resort, Paradise Island RV Resort, Breezy Hill RV Resort, and Highland Woods RV Resort round out the closest choices. Most sit within a short drive of Margate and function well for both short stays and extended snowbird bookings.
From Margate, travelers can reach the Homestead entrance to Everglades National Park in about 60 miles, Naples on the Gulf Coast around 110 miles away, and Key West at the far end of the Overseas Highway roughly 165 miles south. That range makes the city a useful pivot point for a broader South Florida loop.
Things to do near Margate
Beach days are the easy draw. Fort Lauderdale Beach, Deerfield Beach, and Pompano Beach all sit within a half-hour drive, with metered lots and paved promenades for family strolls. Anglers can fish the Intracoastal or book offshore charters from Pompano or Hillsboro Inlet.
Inland, Markham Park in Sunrise sits about fifteen minutes west and offers shaded sites near the Everglades buffer zone, plus a target range and observatory on-site. Easterlin Park in Oakland Park is a designated Urban Wilderness Area with cypress trees up to 100 feet tall and full-hookup sites in a quiet setting, and Tree Tops Park in Davie has boardwalks and canoe rentals.
For a bigger day trip, the Homestead entrance to Everglades National Park delivers airboat operators nearby, alligator viewing, and the Anhinga Trail boardwalks within about an hour and a half.

The prime RV window in South Florida runs from mid-November through April, when humidity drops, mosquitoes thin out, and daytime highs sit in the comfortable seventies and low eighties. This is also snowbird season, so private resorts near Margate fill weeks or months ahead, and monthly rates dominate the calendar. Book early if travel dates cross Christmas, New Year, Presidents Day weekend, or spring break.
May through October brings heat, humidity, and near-daily afternoon thunderstorms. June through November is Atlantic hurricane season, with peak storm activity in August and September. RV travelers should watch National Hurricane Center advisories and confirm cancellation policies with the host before booking a summer trip.
Florida State Parks in the region, including Hugh Taylor Birch and John U. Lloyd Beach, follow a statewide reservation system. Florida residents can reserve cabins and RV, tent, boat, and equestrian campsites up to 11 months in advance, while non-residents can reserve up to 10 months in advance.

How to book near Margate
Private resorts around Margate, including Aztec RV Resort- Motorcoach, Sunshine Holiday MHCC RV and Camping Resort, Paradise Island RV Resort, Breezy Hill RV Resort, and Highland Woods RV Resort, are booked directly through each property or through an RV rental platform. Winter stays commonly require deposits and have longer minimum-stay rules, so read cancellation terms before confirming.
Broward County parks, such as Markham Park and Easterlin Park, are booked through the county's official reservation site. Florida State Parks use a single statewide system. Reservations can be made online at the Florida State Parks reservations website or by phone at 800-326-3521 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Eastern Time. New sites become available on a rolling window at 8 a.m. Eastern each day, and popular winter dates are often booked within minutes of opening.
What to expect
Camping near Margate skews urban rather than wilderness. Expect paved or gravel pads, full hookups, shared pools, and neighboring rigs close by. Several nearby resorts are age-restricted or aimed at long-stay motorcoach owners, so families traveling with kids should confirm age and guest policies before booking. Big rigs and Class A coaches are generally welcome at the larger properties, but check length and slide-out clearances on the specific site assigned.
Cell coverage and Wi-Fi are reliable across Broward County. Groceries, fuel, propane, and RV service centers are all within a short drive of Margate. Publix, Costco, and Walmart sit inside the city limits.
Summer campers should plan for daily thunderstorms, standing water, and mosquitoes. Winter campers should plan for full parks, active clubhouse calendars, and traffic on I-95 and the Florida Turnpike during weekday commutes.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Margate, FL
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Margate, FL?
RV rental in Margate is approachable for South Florida budgets, with most travel trailers starting around $90 to $150 per night, Class C motorhomes typically $175 to $275 per night, and larger Class A rigs ranging from $250 to $450 nightly. You can find the best cheap RV rental Margate has to offer by booking shoulder-season dates in late April, May, or early November when snowbird demand drops. Filter by price range on RVezy and message hosts about weekly discounts, which many owners offer for stays of seven nights or more. Pro tip: booking a travel trailer with delivery often beats a drivable motorhome on total cost since you skip the mileage fees entirely.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Margate,FloridaDo I need a special license to rent an RV in Margate, Florida?
Good news: a regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Margate, Florida. Florida does not require a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) for recreational vehicles used for personal, non-commercial purposes, so even a 35-foot Class A is fair game with your standard license. You'll need to be 25 or older to be an approved driver on RVezy, and your ID is verified through the platform during checkout. Visiting from abroad? Bring an International Driving Permit (IDP) along with your home country license. Most first-time renters in Broward County are surprised at how simple the paperwork really is.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat's included for protection and peace of mind on my Margate RV rental?
Every RV rental in Margate booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can hit I-95 or the Florida Turnpike with confidence. The protection plan covers damage to the vehicle during your trip within the plan terms, giving you real financial peace of mind (note: it's a protection plan, not traditional insurance). During booking, you choose from different coverage levels so you can pick the one that matches your comfort zone. That means whether you're heading to the Everglades or parking in a Margate driveway, you're covered against the unexpected. One less thing to stress about on your South Florida RV trip.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if I need to cancel my Margate RV rental?
Booking is low-risk because RVezy, not the individual host, sets the cancellation policy across the platform. That means there's a consistent process you can count on, including a money-back grace period right after booking so you're not locked in the second you click confirm. Cancellation outcomes depend on factors like how far out from your trip start date you are and the specific policy applied to your booking. Booking your rent an RV in Margate trip early gives you the most flexibility. Reach out to RVezy support anytime before, during, or after your trip if plans shift.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a pet-friendly RV rental in Margate?
Absolutely, pet-friendly RV rental Margate options are easy to find on RVezy. Just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter on the search page and you'll see listings from hosts who happily welcome dogs (and sometimes cats). Once you're rolling, Margate makes it easy for traveling pups: Tradewinds Park on Sample Road has wide-open green space and a popular off-leash dog area, and nearby Quiet Waters Park in Deerfield Beach is leash-friendly with shady picnic spots. Many local RV parks like Paradise Island RV Resort also allow leashed pets. Pro tip: message the host before booking to mention your dog's size and breed so check-in is smooth and worry-free.
broward.org/parks/Pages/default.aspxCan the RV be delivered to my campground or driveway in Margate?
Yes, RV delivery Margate is one of the most popular options on RVezy, and it's a game-changer for first-timers. Many hosts will drive the RV directly to your campground, vacation rental, or even your driveway in Margate, Coconut Creek, or Coral Springs, level it, hook up water and power, and walk you through every system before they leave. That means no white-knuckle driving on Florida's Turnpike or navigating tight campground turns your first time out. Filter for Delivery on the search page to see hosts offering this service, and check the listing for the per-mile delivery rate. Pro tip: delivery to nearby Markham Park or Easterlin Park is a top choice for stress-free first nights.
broward.org/parks/MarkhamPark/Pages/default.aspxHow far can I drive on a Margate RV trip, and how does mileage work?
You've got tons of range from Margate, and mileage policies are set per listing so you can pick what fits your itinerary. Many hosts offer 100 to 150 free miles per night, with additional miles around $0.30 to $0.45 each. Some listings even feature RV rental with unlimited mileage, which is gold for longer hauls. From Margate you can easily reach Key Largo (about 75 miles south), Everglades National Park's Homestead entrance (around 60 miles), Naples and the Gulf Coast (about 110 miles), Orlando (around 200 miles), or the Florida Keys all the way to Key West (165 miles). Pro tip: estimate your full route in Google Maps before booking and pick a mileage package with a buffer.
fdot.gov/agencyresources/mapsWhere are the best campgrounds near Margate for my RV?
You're spoiled for choice on best campgrounds near Margate. Paradise Island RV Resort in Oakland Park sits just 15 minutes south with full hookups, a heated pool, and quick access to Fort Lauderdale beaches. Kozy Kampers RV Park in Fort Lauderdale is a budget-friendly option about 20 minutes away. Markham Park in Sunrise (15 minutes west) offers shaded sites near the Everglades buffer zone with a target range and observatory on-site. Easterlin Park in Oakland Park has rare old-growth cypress and full hookups in a quiet setting. For something tropical, head 45 minutes south to Larry & Penny Thompson Park in Miami. Book Broward County parks via their official site and private parks directly.
broward.org/parks/easterlinpark/Pages/default.aspxWhen is the best time to take an RV trip in Margate?
The sweet spot for RV camping Margate is mid-November through April, when daytime temperatures hover between 73°F and 82°F with low humidity and minimal rain, basically perfect cruising weather. December and January are peak snowbird season, so book your RV rental Florida early for those months. Spring (March-May) brings warmer days and great Everglades wildlife viewing as gators sun themselves on dry land. Summer (June-September) is hot, humid, and the official Atlantic hurricane season, so plan flexibility into any summer Margate RV trip. Pro tip: late October and early November are an insider's window: still warm enough for the beach, fewer crowds, and lower nightly rates from most hosts.
weather.gov/mfl/I'm a first-time renter. Will I actually feel ready to drive?
Yes, and you're in great company since first time renting an RV is exactly what RVezy is built for. Every host provides a full walkthrough at pickup covering driving, leveling, hookups, slide-outs, tanks, generator, and propane, usually 30-60 minutes long, and many will text or call during your trip if anything comes up. South Florida is genuinely friendly for new drivers: the area is flat as a pancake, and major routes like the Florida Turnpike and I-95 have wide lanes. Stick to surface streets like Sample Road and State Road 7 (US-441) for your first miles around Margate. Pro tip: ask your host to film a quick video walkthrough you can rewatch at the campground.
fdot.gov/safety/What happens if something goes wrong on the road?
You're never on your own. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the renter protection plan, so a flat tire on Florida's Turnpike, a dead battery at Markham Park, or a tow situation on US-1 is one phone call away from being handled. Your host is also typically reachable for questions about quirks of their specific RV (the wifi password, the awning switch, that one weird drawer latch). RVezy customer support is available before, during, and after every trip if you need extra help. Pro tip: save the roadside assistance number to your phone before pickup and snap a photo of the RV's VIN and license plate.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Margate RV rental across state lines or to the Bahamas or Mexico?
Cross-state road trips are absolutely allowed and very popular: a classic RV road trip from Margate might run up to Savannah (about 470 miles), out to New Orleans (around 880 miles), or up the Gulf Coast through Tampa and Crystal River. Travel to Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals because insurance and protection coverage doesn't extend there. The Bahamas isn't an option either since RVs can't be ferried over. If you're planning anything beyond Florida, message the host through the listing page to confirm their preferences on long-distance trips and any mileage adjustments. Pro tip: the Florida-to-Outer Banks route is a renter favorite for spring break.
cbp.gov/travel/us-citizens/know-before-you-goWhat should I budget for fuel on a Margate RV trip?
Fuel is one of the biggest variables, but it's manageable with a little planning. Class B campervans get around 18-22 MPG, Class C motorhomes 8-12 MPG, and Class A rigs 6-10 MPG, while travel trailers depend on your tow vehicle. Florida gas prices typically run close to the national average, with stations along Sample Road, University Drive, and the Florida Turnpike service plazas being convenient fill-up spots. For a typical 4-night trip from Margate to the Keys and back (around 330 miles), budget roughly $90-$150 in fuel for a Class C. Pro tip: GasBuddy and the Costco on West Atlantic Boulevard in Margate consistently have some of the lowest local prices.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far ahead should I book campgrounds near Margate?
Book early for the best Margate RV trip. Florida State Parks open reservations 10 months in advance for non-residents (11 months for residents) through the official ReserveAmerica-powered system, and popular spots like Bahia Honda in the Keys or John Pennekamp Coral Reef sell out within minutes of opening. Broward County parks like Markham, Easterlin, and Quiet Waters take reservations through the Broward Parks website. Private resorts like Paradise Island RV Resort and Kozy Kampers can usually be booked 3-6 months ahead, sometimes less in shoulder season. Pro tip: set a calendar reminder for exactly 10 months before your travel date and log in five minutes before the booking window opens. Sites disappear fast.
floridastateparks.org/stay-nightWhat's driving like in and around Margate?
Driving conditions in Margate are about as friendly as it gets for an RV. The terrain is completely flat (elevation about 13 feet), roads are wide, and there are no mountain passes or steep grades anywhere in South Florida. The main considerations are summer afternoon thunderstorms (build in extra travel time June-September), heavy snowbird traffic on I-95 and the Turnpike from December through March, and a few low-clearance underpasses in older Fort Lauderdale neighborhoods, so know your RV's height. Avoid Las Olas Boulevard and downtown Fort Lauderdale parking decks in any larger rig. Pro tip: use the Florida 511 app for real-time traffic and incident alerts on I-95, I-595, and the Sawgrass Expressway during your trip.
fl511.com/What amenities will I find at campgrounds near Margate?
South Florida campgrounds are some of the best-equipped in the country. Most full-hookup parks near Margate, like Paradise Island RV Resort and Yacht Haven Park & Marina, offer 30/50-amp electric, fresh water, sewer at the site, and free WiFi, plus pools, laundry, and clubhouses. Broward County parks like Markham and Easterlin provide water, electric, dump stations, hot showers, and picnic facilities. For dump stations and potable water on the road, Markham Park in Sunrise and Long Pine Key in Everglades National Park both offer access. Pro tip: South Florida private RV resorts often have heated pools and tiki bars on-site, making them feel more like a vacation resort than a campground.
broward.org/parks/MarkhamPark/Pages/CampingFacility.aspxWhat features and amenities come with the RV itself?
Margate motorhome rental and campervan rental Margate listings on RVezy come fully equipped for comfortable living. Expect real beds (queens and bunks depending on size), a kitchen with fridge, stove, microwave, and basic cookware, a bathroom with toilet and shower, air conditioning (essential in Florida), heating, dinette seating with seatbelts for passengers, and most modern rigs include a TV. Many hosts also offer WiFi hotspots, generators for off-grid use, outdoor chairs, BBQ grills, and bike racks as add-ons. Each listing page shows exactly what's included so there are no surprises. Pro tip: confirm AC tonnage with the host if you're booking in July or August. Florida heat is no joke and a strong rooftop unit makes all the difference.
energy.gov/energysaver/central-air-conditioningWhat add-ons and pickup options should I know about?
Hosts on RVezy in Margate offer a range of popular add-ons that make your trip smoother: delivery and setup (often $2-$4 per mile), generator usage, propane refills, linen and kitchen packages ($50-$100), bikes, kayaks, outdoor grills, and even pet packages. Pickup is typically at the host's home in Margate, Coconut Creek, or Tamarac, but many will meet you at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) for a fee, which is huge for fly-in travelers. Mileage policies are listed clearly on each listing. Pro tip: if you're flying in, book the linen package and FLL pickup. You'll walk off the plane and into a fully stocked RV with zero stops at Walmart needed.
broward.org/airport/Pages/default.aspxHow do payment and the security deposit work?
Payment is simple and secure: RVezy collects your booking payment by credit card through the platform, so you're never handing cash or checks directly to a host. The security deposit is held separately on your card around the start of the trip and released after the RV is returned in the agreed condition, typically within a few days. Deposit amounts vary by RV and are clearly listed on each Margate listing page before you book. To avoid any issues, take time-stamped photos and a quick video of the RV at pickup and dropoff, including the odometer, fuel and propane levels, and tank readings. Pro tip: your host will walk you through a return checklist. Treat it as your peace-of-mind step.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksHow do I handle Florida summer heat and hurricane season in an RV?
Florida summers are tropical (highs of 88-91°F with humidity in the 80s%), so a few smart moves keep your family RV trip Margate comfortable. Park in shade where possible, run rooftop AC on a 30/50-amp hookup rather than the generator, drive in the morning to avoid afternoon thunderstorms, and stay hydrated. Hurricane season officially runs June 1 to November 30, with peak activity August through October. Always check the National Hurricane Center forecast 5-7 days out, and know that RVezy's cancellation policy accounts for major weather events. Pro tip: if a named storm is forecast within 72 hours of your trip, contact your host and RVezy support immediately. They'll help you reschedule or relocate inland safely.
