Shopping and essentials: Urban RV parks put campers close to necessities. "Good location. Lots around for anything you might need," reports a camper about Del Raton RV Park, which sits approximately one mile from beach areas and nearby commercial districts.
Pool swimming: Several parks offer pool facilities as alternatives to beach swimming. A visitor at Juno Ocean Walk RV Resort appreciated that "There is a pool, hot tub, laundry, tennis, bocce, playgrounds," providing multiple recreation options without leaving the property.
What campers like
Urban convenience: The proximity to city amenities appeals to many campers. "This is a campground in the middle of the city... it was extremely convenient to all of the Fort Lauderdale area," notes a reviewer who stayed at Paradise Island RV Resort for 14 months during the pandemic.
Winter community: Many parks develop seasonal communities. One guest at Encore Breezy Hill observed, "Very large population of french speaking Canadians," indicating the winter demographic shift that occurs at many South Florida RV parks.
Site quality: Higher-end resorts receive praise for their site conditions. A visitor at Juno Ocean Walk RV Resort appreciated their "nice sunset view and dry from any rain that you may experience," along with "Nice paved roads with meticulously kept grounds and flat cement pads."
What you should know
Seasonal population fluctuations: Winter brings significant population increases. One camper at Encore Breezy Hill noted, "We were there during the pandemic and many of the Canadian regulars were not there," highlighting how seasonal visitors affect park occupancy.
Neighborhood conditions: Some parks are affected by their surrounding areas. A reviewer at Encore Breezy Hill mentioned, "If you get a site along the fence in back, be prepared for neighbors noise that the RV park cannot control. Barking dogs and loud music, etc."
Internet reliability: Connectivity varies significantly by park. Del Raton RV Park received this practical note: "Internet is hit and miss a lot of the time. Not reliable enough for work," a consideration for remote workers.
Tips for camping with families
Amenity research: Not all parks are equally equipped for families. "No amenities," reports a camper about Kozy Kampers RV Park, while others like Paradise Island RV Resort provide "Full hookup sites, spots are big and concrete roads, amenities like restrooms and showers are clean, the pool is nice!"
Location considerations: Parks closer to highways may have noise issues. One camper reported that Grice's RV Park is "very close to very noisy road," which could disrupt sleep for children.
Pet restrictions: Pet policies vary widely. One visitor to Encore Breezy Hill found themselves "Forced to cancel" after discovering: "This park was rated as pet friendly in the TT system, turns out it isn't. Now with under 2 weeks to go, we need to make new reservations."
Tips from RVers
Site selection: Carefully review site locations when booking. A camper at Aztec RV Resort advised, "We stayed in 56, which was not good. It had a hot tub and hut, but the hot tub was just there for tadpoles to swim. It was unkept."
Navigation challenges: Some parks present maneuvering difficulties. A visitor at Paradise Island RV Resort cautioned about the dump station: "This requires you to back into position or drive down a narrow path and make 3 tight turns."
Vehicle parking: Space limitations affect larger rigs with tow vehicles. At Del Raton RV Park, a camper noted, "Not much room to park a vehicle," which could necessitate creative parking solutions or alternative transportation.
