Cyndi was a great host and was there to answer any questions needed. Mark was awesome with his walk through of the RV.

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.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Westwood Lakes, FL

How much does it cost to rent an RV in Westwood Lakes, FL?

RV rental in Westwood Lakes is often more affordable than hotel stays in nearby Miami. On RVezy, travel trailers typically start around $90 to $150 per night, campervans range from $125 to $225, and larger Class A motorhomes range from $200 to $375 nightly. Because hosts set their own pricing, you can filter by budget and sort for cheap RV rental Westwood Lakes options. Booking midweek and avoiding peak winter snowbird season (January to March) can save you 20 to 30 percent. Many hosts also offer weekly discounts, so extending your Florida road trip by a couple of days often costs less per night than a short weekend booking.

What license do I need to rent an RV in Westwood Lakes?

Good news: a regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Westwood Lakes, no commercial driver's license (CDL) or special endorsement required, even for the largest Class A motorhomes on the platform. Florida treats personal-use recreational vehicles like standard passenger vehicles for licensing. You'll generally need to be at least 25 years old to book on RVezy, and your ID is verified securely through the platform when you reserve. Visiting from abroad? Pick up an International Driving Permit from your home country's auto association before you fly, usually under $25, and you're set to hit the road from Westwood Lakes.

Is renting an RV in Westwood Lakes safe and protected?

Yes. Every RV rental in Westwood Lakes booked through RVezy comes with a renter protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance included, so you're never on your own. The protection plan covers most accidental damage to the vehicle, giving you peace of mind whether you're navigating the Florida Turnpike or parking at a state park. During checkout you choose the protection level that fits your comfort, from standard to premium, the host does not make that choice for you. Combined with roadside support that can dispatch help anywhere in Florida, you can focus on the trip instead of the what-ifs.

What is the cancellation policy for an RV rental in Westwood Lakes?

Booking is low-risk: RVezy, not individual hosts, sets the cancellation policy, so you get consistent, transparent terms on every rental in Westwood Lakes. There is a grace-period window after booking where you can cancel for a full refund, and additional refund tiers apply depending on how far out from your trip you cancel. The exact details are shown clearly during checkout and in your booking confirmation. If your plans shift, or if a named storm threatens your travel dates during Florida's June to November hurricane season, reach out to RVezy support and they will walk you through your options before you do anything.

Can I bring my dog on a pet-friendly RV rental in Westwood Lakes?

Yes, plenty of hosts offer pet-friendly RV rental Westwood Lakes options, just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter when you search. Many Miami-area hosts welcome dogs and even leave bowls or blankets behind. Once you're on the road, your pup will love Amelia Earhart Park in nearby Hialeah, which has a fenced dog park and shaded trails, or Matheson Hammock Park in Coral Gables for a leashed waterfront walk. Larry and Penny Thompson Memorial Park, a popular RV campground just south, is dog-friendly and only about 20 minutes from Westwood Lakes. Tip: message the host through the listing to confirm any pet fee and to share your dog's size, it makes pickup smoother for everyone.

Can the RV be delivered to my campsite or home in Westwood Lakes?

Yes, RV delivery Westwood Lakes is one of the most popular add-ons, and it's a game-changer if it's your first time renting an RV. Many local hosts will drive the rig to your driveway, a nearby campground like Larry and Penny Thompson Memorial Park, or Miami Everglades RV Resort in Homestead, then level it, hook it up, and give you a full walkthrough before handing over the keys. Delivery fees usually run a few dollars per mile from the host's location, with some offering flat rates within a 25-mile radius. Use the Delivery filter when browsing, message the host with your destination, and you can skip the stress of towing or driving a large motorhome through Miami traffic.

How far can I drive on a Westwood Lakes RV trip?

You have serious road-trip range from Westwood Lakes. Key Largo is roughly 60 miles south on the Overseas Highway, the Everglades National Park main (Ernest Coe) entrance is about 35 miles southwest, Naples sits around 110 miles west across Alligator Alley, Orlando's theme parks are about 235 miles north, and St. Augustine is roughly 340 miles up I-95. Many hosts include 100 to 150 free miles per night, and you can filter for RV rental with unlimited mileage if you're planning a longer Florida loop. Extra miles typically cost $0.30 to $0.45 each, but if you share your route up front, many hosts will bundle in a generous mileage package so your road trip from Westwood Lakes stays on budget.

Where are the best campgrounds near Westwood Lakes?

You're surrounded by great options for RV camping Westwood Lakes travelers love. Larry and Penny Thompson Memorial Park, about 12 miles south, offers full-hookup sites, a freshwater lake, and showers, all run by Miami-Dade County. Miami Everglades RV Resort in Homestead offers full hookups, a pool, and easy access to both Everglades and Biscayne National Parks. Long Pine Key Campground inside Everglades National Park is bucket-list level for stargazing. For Keys access, John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park in Key Largo has waterfront sites about 90 minutes away. Tip: Florida state parks open reservations 11 months in advance through the Florida State Parks reservation system, and winter sites disappear within minutes, so set a calendar reminder.

When is the best time of year to rent an RV in Westwood Lakes?

The sweet spot for an RV rental in Florida around Westwood Lakes is November through April, when daytime highs sit comfortably between 70F and 82F, humidity drops, and mosquitoes back off, perfect for the Everglades and the Keys. December through March is peak snowbird season, so book your motorhome rental Westwood Lakes at least 60 days ahead. May to October brings hot, humid days in the mid-80s to low-90s with afternoon thunderstorms, and the official Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30. The shoulder months of late April and early November are insider favorites: warm Gulf water, lower prices, and far fewer crowds at South Florida's best campgrounds.

I've never rented an RV before. Will I be okay in Westwood Lakes?

You're going to do great. First time renting an RV is easier than most people expect, especially in Westwood Lakes where many hosts specialize in helping newcomers. Every RVezy booking includes a hands-on orientation at pickup where the host walks you through driving, leveling, the water and electrical systems, the awning, and how to dump tanks. You can message your host anytime before or during the trip with questions, and 24/7 roadside assistance is just a phone call away. Tip: choose a Class C motorhome or a travel trailer under 25 feet for your first South Florida trip, they handle like a large van and fit easily into Miami-Dade campground sites.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirements

What happens if something goes wrong with the RV during my trip?

You're never stranded. Every RV rental in Westwood Lakes includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the renter protection plan, so whether you're on the Florida Turnpike, deep in the Everglades, or down in the Keys, help is one call away. Flat tires, dead batteries, lockouts, and towing are all covered. For anything mechanical or appliance-related, your host is the first call, most South Florida hosts respond within minutes and many will troubleshoot over video chat. If the issue is bigger, RVezy support steps in to coordinate repairs or, if needed, a replacement. The peace of mind that comes standard means you can relax and enjoy the trip.

Can I take my Westwood Lakes RV rental to other states or countries?

You have plenty of room to roam. Interstate travel across the U.S. is generally welcomed by hosts. Popular routes from Westwood Lakes include the Overseas Highway to Key West (about 165 miles), the Gulf Coast through Naples and Sarasota, and I-95 north through St. Augustine and Savannah. Confirm your itinerary with the host before booking using the listing's message feature. RVezy insurance and protection coverage applies within the United States and Canada only, so travel into Mexico is not permitted. Cross-border trips into Canada may be possible with host approval, but for a South Florida pickup, most renters stick to Florida and the southeastern U.S., which is more than enough adventure.

How much should I budget for fuel on a Florida RV trip?

Fuel is one of the bigger line items, but it's predictable. Class C motorhomes average 8 to 10 miles per gallon, Class A rigs around 6 to 8 mpg, travel trailers depend on your tow vehicle (typically 10 to 14 mpg), and Class B campervans get a friendly 18 to 22 mpg. Florida gas prices typically run close to the national average. For a 500-mile loop from Westwood Lakes to the Keys and back, budget roughly $150 to $275 in fuel for a midsize motorhome at current prices. Tip: use a fuel price app and fill up off the turnpike, prices on US-1 and SR-997 are usually 20 to 40 cents cheaper per gallon. Check the EIA for current Florida averages before you go.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/

How far in advance should I book a campground near Westwood Lakes?

Book early and you'll have your pick. Florida State Parks like John Pennekamp and Bahia Honda release reservations 11 months in advance through the Florida State Parks reservation system, and the best waterfront sites are snapped up within minutes of opening, especially for winter weekends. National park campgrounds in the Everglades open through Recreation.gov six months ahead. Miami-Dade County parks like Larry and Penny Thompson typically book 2 to 3 months out for high season. For a winter RV trip in Westwood Lakes, aim to lock in campgrounds at least 90 days ahead. Tip: midweek arrivals Sunday through Wednesday are far easier to score and often quieter than weekend stays.

What are driving conditions like around Westwood Lakes and Miami?

Westwood Lakes sits in southwest Miami-Dade, which means flat, straight roads and no mountains, great news for RV drivers. That said, Miami traffic on I-95, the Palmetto Expressway (SR 826), and the Dolphin Expressway (SR 836) gets heavy from about 7 to 9 a.m. and 4 to 7 p.m., so plan departures around those windows. Most overpasses on the Florida Turnpike clear 13 feet 6 inches or more, which accommodates the vast majority of rental RVs, but always confirm your specific RV height with the host before you head out. Use the Florida 511 traffic service to check for incidents before longer drives.

What amenities do campgrounds near Westwood Lakes typically offer?

South Florida campgrounds are well equipped for a comfortable RV stay. Most parks within an hour of Westwood Lakes, including Larry and Penny Thompson Memorial Park and Miami Everglades RV Resort, offer full hookups (water, 30/50-amp electric, and sewer), hot showers, laundry, Wi-Fi, and a dump station. State parks like John Pennekamp provide water and electric at most sites with a centralized dump station near the exit. For freshwater fills, every county and state park has spigots near the entrance loop. Tip: the closest convenient dump-and-fill option to Westwood Lakes is at Larry and Penny Thompson Memorial Park, about 15 minutes south, where day-use access is available for a small fee.

What's included inside a typical RV rental in Westwood Lakes?

You'll be impressed by how loaded most rigs are. A typical motorhome rental Westwood Lakes comes with a full kitchen (fridge, stove, microwave, sink, often a convection oven), a bathroom with toilet and shower, real beds for 2 to 8 people, dinette and lounge seating with seatbelts, air conditioning, a furnace, and a roof or onboard generator for off-grid power. Many hosts also include a flat-screen TV, Bluetooth stereo, and an outdoor awning. Wi-Fi varies: some include mobile hotspots, others rely on your phone's hotspot, which works well across most of Miami-Dade and the Keys. Tip: filter listings by the amenities that matter most to you, such as generator, solar, or pet-friendly, and message the host to confirm anything specific.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Westwood%20Lakes%2C%20Florida

What add-ons and pickup options are available for my RV rental?

Hosts in Westwood Lakes offer a long list of helpful add-ons to customize your trip. Popular extras include bedding and linen packages ($25 to $50), kitchen kits with pots and utensils ($25 to $40), camping chairs and outdoor tables ($10 to $20), portable grills, bike racks, kayaks, and generators for boondocking. Mileage packages can often be prepaid at a discount. Pickup is typically at the host's home in the greater Miami area, but many hosts offer delivery to Miami International Airport (MIA), Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood (FLL), or directly to your campground. Review the listing's add-ons section, then message the host to confirm your pickup window, most are flexible by an hour or two on either side.

How does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?

Payment is simple and secure. When you book an RV in Westwood Lakes, you pay through the RVezy platform with a credit card, no cash, no peer-to-peer apps, and no off-platform requests (those are always a red flag). A security deposit, separate from your booking payment and typically a few hundred to a couple thousand dollars depending on the RV's value, is pre-authorized on your card before pickup and released after a smooth return. Choosing a higher protection level during checkout can lower your out-of-pocket exposure if anything happens. Tip: do a thorough walkaround video with your host at both pickup and drop-off, it's the single best way to ensure your deposit is returned quickly and in full.

Can I drive my RV into Miami Beach or downtown from Westwood Lakes?

You can, but most renters skip it, and that's the local insider tip. Downtown Miami and Miami Beach have low-clearance areas, tight parking garages that don't fit RVs, and meter-only street parking that's a headache for anything over 22 feet. Instead, park your campervan rental Westwood Lakes at a campground like Larry and Penny Thompson Memorial Park or Miami Everglades RV Resort, then take a rideshare or the Metrorail into the city. You're only 25 to 35 minutes from South Beach without the hassle. For nature lovers, you're also about 35 minutes from the Everglades and roughly 75 minutes from Key Largo, easy escapes that an RV is perfectly built for.
