What campers like
Security features: Many parks offer gated entry for added safety. According to Mary H., Breezy Hill RV Resort is "gated for safety," providing peace of mind for campers.
Convenient urban locations: Paradise Island RV Resort offers proximity to urban amenities. "This is a campground in the middle of the city, so don't expect a lot of quiet, as this is how it is in a city," explains Richard H., adding it was "extremely convenient to all of the Fort Lauderdale area."
Pool and recreation options: Several RV parks feature swimming pools and recreation areas. At Paradise Island, one camper noted, "Good experience, this was the first campground we ever visited with our RV but it was smooth... the pool seemed nice although we didn't use it."
What you should know
Variable site quality: Site conditions can vary significantly between campgrounds. At Encore Sunshine Holiday, one camper observed, "Location was great, spaces are too tight though. I could hardly get my RV and Car Trailer through the campground."
Seasonal demographics: Some parks have strong seasonal populations with distinct cultural communities. At Breezy Hill, a reviewer noted, "Very large population of french speaking Canadians. Most don't/won't speak english. Hard to make any friends if you don't speak french."
Noise considerations: Urban campgrounds may experience noise from nearby roads or businesses. A camper at Sunshine Holiday mentioned, "We were in site 286 and it was very noisy next to the restaurant businesses."
Tips for camping with families
Check pet policies: Not all campgrounds welcome pets. One camper at Breezy Hill discovered this too late: "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."
Look for playgrounds: South Bay RV Campground offers facilities suitable for families. The campground features "playgrounds, and it's walking distance to the pier, the beach, a large Publix grocery store and drug store, restaurants, and more."
Consider noise levels: Light and noise sensitivity can affect family comfort. At South Bay, a camper noted, "Had to sleep with pillow on face as there are bright lights that stay on all night."
Tips from RVers
Luxury options available: Aztec RV Resort offers upscale accommodations for class A motorhomes. One reviewer described it as "one of the nicest RV resorts I've ever seen, the lots were spacious and incredibly well maintained."
Water pressure issues: Check water systems before setup. At Del Raton RV Park, a camper reported, "Water pressure is sub-par. I changed my filter and still had issues."
Weekend office hours: Some parks have limited weekend staffing. At Sunshine Holiday, a camper noted, "There is no one in the office on the weekends. If you arrive late you have to do everything online."
