Driving north or southbound on I95 with your 5th wheel or a proper RV and looking to join a massive community of like-minded outdoor enthusiasts, then look no further than Holiday Travel Park, conveniently tucked away due west behind the tall pines off Exit 278. If you’re driving the speed limit on I95 and don’t look close enough, trust me, you won’t find this hidden behemoth RV community. While billed as the#1 RV and Camping Spot in the Daytona Beach area (debatable, at best), this INCREDIBLY HUGE RV destination has tons of space and an incredible list of attractions that borders on being obscene.
From an amenities standpoint, Holiday Travel Park offers up: Free WiFi, pull-thru and back-in shaded RV Sites, sparkling clean bathrooms, tennis courts, scattered hot showers, coin-operated laundry room, heated swimming pool, firewood for sale, duck pond, recreational areas, full hook-ups (water, 30 / 50 electric and sewage), dump station, fishing lake as well as RV & boat storage area. At the office, where you’ll check-in and get your security pass and slot#, there’s also a decent sized community room complete with DVD’s and a lending library.
Insider’s tips? Here’s a few: (1) While this place did not impress me as a destination per se, if you are looking for a convenient roadside exit incredibly close to I95 to layover for the night, this place is solid and their rates are very affordable; (2) Looking for nearby attractions or something to do? I would recommend heading east and crossing I95 to Bulow Creek State Park where you’ll find no shortage of amazing hiking pathways, excellent bird-watching as well as kayak entry points and fishing holes to cast a line in; and (3) As you are next to I95, you’ll have no shortage of fast food restaurants, but if you want to grab something more substantial, you’ll be left with just a few nearby options: Mezzaluna Pizzeria, Breakfast Station or Thai Elephant, which has some fairly amazing pad thai.
Happy Camping!
