Sun Retreats Fort Myers Beach

237 RV Sites

Sun Retreats Fort Myers Beach in Florida offers 237 super full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 45 feet, open all year. A single super full-hookup category means every guest gets the same spec, with a pool, fitness center, clubhouse, and beach in Lee County. Two hundred thirty-seven sites are super full hookup throughout, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with picnic tables. One category and no guessing — a straightforward booking experience. A laundry, restrooms, showers, and personal mailboxes handle the practical side. Two things to know before you arrive: the resort is still undergoing reconstruction after Hurricane Ian, so ask about amenity availability when booking, and surge protectors are required because the resort may experience temporary utility outages. An outdoor pool anchors daily recreation, with a fitness center, clubhouse, game room, pavilion, playground, and dog park filling the grounds. Pickleball, bocce ball, shuffleboard, billiards, biking, swimming, and a beach round it out. Pets are welcome. The address is 16175 John Morris Road. Southwest Florida's resort geography is unusually complete from here — Sanibel's shell-covered beaches, Captiva's fishing lodges, Estero Island at Fort Myers Beach, and Lovers Key State Park's barrier island kayaking are all within reach. Winter is decisively the season on Florida's Gulf Coast. January through March fills with snowbirds. Book well ahead, and confirm amenity status given the ongoing repairs.

Four hundred forty-nine sites are premium back-in throughout, carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with cable TV, sized to 45 feet. A single premium category means every resident gets the same spec — no budget tier, no guesswork.

An outdoor pool and hot tub and sauna anchor daily recreation, with a golf driving range, fitness center, library, pavilion, and sports courts besides.

Winter is decisively the season in Southwest Florida's 55-plus communities. January through March fills with snowbirds. Book well ahead for those months, with far easier availability through the summer.

Blueway RV Park

95 RV Sites

Blueway RV Park in Fort Myers, Florida, offers 94 full-hookup RV sites across more than 30 acres on South Tamiami Trail, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 47 feet. A lakeview back-in category joins standard back-in and pull-through tiers, with a pool, hot tub, fitness center, recreation center, and golf cart rentals. Ninety-four sites run in back-in, lakeview back-in, and pull-thru categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 47 feet. The lakeview category is worth requesting for a seasonal stay. A general store, laundry, dump station, and RV storage handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and hot tub and sauna anchor daily recreation, with a fitness center, recreation center, pavilion, sports courts, shuffleboard, horseshoes, corn hole, golf cart rentals, and a dog park filling the grounds. The social amenity package is built around keeping guests active and connected through long stays rather than entertaining overnight visitors — which tells you exactly who this park serves. Pets are welcome. More than 30 acres gives the property one of the larger footprints in Lee County, and the loyal seasonal following reflects it. Southwest Florida's winters are the draw: reliably warm, dry, and sunny from November through April, with Sanibel, Captiva, Fort Myers Beach, and the Caloosahatchee all within reach and Naples a short drive south. Winter is decisively the season on Florida's Gulf Coast. January through March fills with snowbirds. Book well ahead for those months, with far easier availability through the summer.

Sun Retreats Estero Bay

16 RV Sites

On 30 acres along the South Tamiami Trail (US-41) in Fort Myers, Florida—in Lee County where the Gulf Coast's barrier island beaches, the Caloosahatchee River's inland waterway, and the subtropical Southwest Florida ecosystem create the outdoor and cultural environment that makes the Fort Myers and Estero Bay area one of the premier winter destination corridors on Florida's Gulf Coast—Sun Retreats Estero Bay, a Sun Outdoors property, provides 300 full hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service on brick paver concrete pads accommodating rigs up to 45 feet with slide-outs, large 75-foot pull-thru options, a heated pool and hot tub, two stocked catch-and-release lakes, a boardwalk and nature trail, shuffleboard, horseshoes, park model rentals, and the organized social community that Sun Outdoors manages across its Gulf Coast properties in a resort whose Lee County position puts Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel Island, Bonita Beach, and the Estero Bay Aquatic Preserve within day-trip distance of a professionally maintained full-hookup Gulf Coast address. The pads are concrete. The pool is heated. The Gulf is close. Three hundred full hookup sites on brick paver concrete pads with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer—the paver pads and the 45-foot accommodation capacity with full slide-out clearance establishing the premium infrastructure standard that a 300-site Sun Outdoors Gulf Coast resort maintains—alongside the 75-foot pull-thru options for the longest coaches provide the comprehensive hookup inventory for the winter snowbird population that occupies the Lee County Gulf Coast corridor from November through April. The heated pool and hot tub serve the year-round outdoor living that Southwest Florida's climate enables, and the two stocked catch-and-release lakes provide the on-property fishing that the Estero Bay and Caloosahatchee fishing culture extends in a managed, immediately accessible format. A boardwalk and nature trail through the 30-acre property's natural areas, shuffleboard courts, and horseshoes provide the active recreation complement to the pool and lake amenities, and WiFi throughout the property serves the remote work and streaming needs of the extended-stay winter guest. Fort Myers sits in Lee County on the Caloosahatchee River's southern bank, in the Southwest Florida coastal environment where the mangrove-fringed Estero Bay, the barrier island beaches of Fort Myers Beach and Sanibel, and the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge create the natural infrastructure that makes Lee County one of Florida's most ecologically rich winter corridors. The Edison and Ford Winter Estates on the Caloosahatchee—Thomas Edison's botanical garden laboratory and Henry Ford's adjacent winter home—provide the historic and horticultural draw that Lee County's most visited non-beach destination delivers. Sanibel Island, 15 miles west via the Sanibel Causeway, provides the shelling beaches and the "Sanibel Stoop" shell-hunting culture that has made the island's lighthouse-end beach one of the most celebrated shelling destinations in the world—the J.N. "Ding" Darling Wildlife Refuge's 5,200 acres of mangrove, wetland, and upland habitat on the island's north side is one of the most accessible and productive wildlife refuges on the Gulf Coast. Fort Myers Beach on Estero Island, directly accessible via San Carlos Boulevard, provides the Gulf swimming and the Times Square entertainment district. Sun Retreats Estero Bay operates year-round in Lee County's subtropical climate, with the November through April snowbird season the resort's peak occupancy period and the Gulf Coast summer from June through September the off-peak months when the hurricane season and the heat reduce the winter-population seasonal residents to the year-round subset. Reserve your concrete pad at Sun Retreats Estero Bay and let the heated pool, the catch-and-release lakes, and the 15-minute drive to Sanibel and Fort Myers Beach make the Southwest Florida Gulf Coast winter exactly as relaxed as a Sun Outdoors Lee County address suggests it should be.

Cabana Bay RV Resort by Boca Grande

163 RV Sites

In Placida, Florida—on the Charlotte Harbor coast between Cape Haze and the Boca Grande Causeway, in the lower Charlotte County landscape where Pine Island Sound, Cape Haze, and the preserve lands surrounding Gasparilla Island create one of the most ecologically intact and least overdeveloped coastal environments on the Gulf Coast—Cabana Bay RV Resort by Boca Grande delivers 170 full hookup sites on paver pads alongside a resort-style pool, pickleball courts, fitness center, and private gated access to the Cape Haze Pioneer Trail. The lakefront setting on five acres of resort-maintained grounds, the fountain-lined lake, and the resort's Boca Grande proximity create a coastal Florida camping experience that the Charlotte Harbor's natural wealth and the historic fishing community of Boca Grande specifically amplify. All 170 sites provide full hookup service with 20, 30, and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer connections on paver pads—a site surface that keeps the Florida sand under control and provides the firm, clean pad surface that resort-quality campground positioning demands. A resort-style pool and fitness center serve the active adult and family recreation needs, and pickleball courts position the resort for the sport's dominance in the Florida winter snowbird demographic. A welcoming clubhouse, dog park, laundry facilities, WiFi, golf cart rentals, and food trucks round out the resort's social and practical infrastructure. Private gated access to the Cape Haze Pioneer Trail—a multi-use recreational trail through the Cape Haze peninsula's conservation lands—gives guests immediate off-road cycling and walking access that the surrounding preserve system makes one of the finest trail environments on the Gulf Coast. The five acres of lakefront grounds, the fountain-lined lake, and the resort's maintained natural areas provide the environmental quality that justifies the resort designation beyond the pool and pickleball courts. The Charlotte Harbor estuary's ecology—seagrass beds, mangrove shorelines, and the open-water habitat that supports the most diverse inshore fishery on the Gulf of Mexico—is immediately accessible from Placida's boat ramps and the fishing infrastructure that surrounds the resort's Charlotte Harbor position. Boca Grande—on Gasparilla Island across the causeway, the historic tarpon fishing capital of the world and the most architecturally preserved Old Florida resort town remaining on the Gulf Coast—is minutes from the resort by car or golf cart and provides the cultural experience that distinguishes a Charlotte Harbor visit from a standard Gulf beach trip. The tarpon season (May through August) brings sport fishing enthusiasts specifically for the 100-plus-pound silver kings that pass through Boca Grande Pass in concentrations that have defined the Florida sport fishing tradition since the Vanderbilt era. The island's restored historic downtown, Gasparilla Inn's century-old hospitality tradition, and the bike-accessible Gasparilla Island State Park beach provide the Boca Grande day-trip itinerary. Cabana Bay RV Resort by Boca Grande is open year-round in Charlotte County's warm-season climate, with peak demand from November through April during the snowbird season and again in May through August during tarpon season. The Cape Haze Pioneer Trail is most pleasant in the cooler months when cycling through the peninsula's preserve lands is comfortable in the morning. Reserve your paver-pad site early for the winter season and let the Charlotte Harbor Coast make the case for the Gulf Coast that exists south of the resort corridor and north of the Naples luxury market.

Pets are welcome. The 55-plus designation and long-established community are the character here — this is an active-adult resort where residents and seasonal visitors know each other, not a transient park. North Naples puts the sugar-white Gulf beaches and the upscale boutiques and restaurants of Fifth Avenue South within minutes. Winter is decisively the season in Southwest Florida's 55-plus communities. January through March fills with snowbirds and the Naples corridor tightens considerably.

Sanctuary RV Resort

162 RV Sites

Sanctuary RV Resort in Bonita Springs, Florida, offers 162 RV sites with rigs accepted up to 115 feet — among the most generous length allowances in Southwest Florida. Premiere super pull-through, super pull-through, and super back-in categories join a pool, clubhouse, marina, and library between Naples and Fort Myers. One hundred sixty-two sites run in super back-in, super pull-through, and premiere super pull-through categories, sized to 115 feet. The super designation is not marketing here — 115 feet accommodates the longest coaches on the road with a tow and room to spare, which is genuinely rare this far south. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, RV storage, and WiFi handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors daily recreation, with a clubhouse, library, sports courts, pickleball, and a playground filling the grounds. A marina sits on the property, and a dog park serves pets. Live music runs through the season, and the surrounding preserve makes for productive birding. Pets are welcome. Bonita Springs sits in Lee County between Naples and Fort Myers, which puts guests within easy reach of some of the Gulf Coast's best beaches, most productive fishing, and most carefully preserved natural areas. This is an all-ages resort rather than 55-plus, which broadens who it suits. Winter is decisively the season in Southwest Florida, when snowbird demand fills the Gulf corridor from January through March. Book well ahead for those months, and expect considerably easier availability through the summer.

North Port, FL

Myakka River RV Resort

24 RV Sites, 2 Tent Sites, 21 Park Models

Directly on the Myakka River in North Port, Florida—in Sarasota County where the Myakka River's blackwater flow through the flatwood prairie, cypress swamp, and tropical hammock creates the most wildlife-rich river corridor in southwest Florida—Myakka River RV Resort offers big-rig-friendly full hookup sites with 30 and 50-amp service, patio slabs and picnic tables at every site, high-speed WiFi throughout, cable TV, and both riverfront and nature-preserve sites in a resort that provides direct access to one of Florida's most extraordinary natural waterways in the community between Sarasota and Port Charlotte that has become one of southwest Florida's fastest-growing residential and visitor destinations. For guests who want the Myakka River in the backyard rather than as a day-trip destination, this is the park that provides it. All sites run on full hookup service—30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer—on the concrete patio slabs that Florida's year-round outdoor living culture demands as a baseline, with picnic tables at every site providing the outdoor dining and relaxation space that the Myakka's wildlife parade makes genuinely rewarding to occupy. High-speed WiFi serves the remote workers and extended-stay guests who use the North Port corridor as a winter base, and cable TV provides the indoor entertainment option that Florida's occasional rainy afternoon necessitates. Riverfront sites provide direct visual access to the Myakka River's wildlife—the alligators, river otters, anhinga, and wading birds that use the river's undisturbed banks as year-round habitat—while nature-preserve sites offer the wooded privacy of the adjacent upland habitat. Big-rig-friendly infrastructure ensures that the resort's largest guests arrive and depart without difficulty. North Port occupies Sarasota County in the Charlotte Harbor estuary watershed, in the geographic transition between the coastal resort communities of Sarasota County and the Charlotte Harbor area's fishing and boating culture. The Myakka River flows south through North Port from its origin in the Green Swamp toward Charlotte Harbor in one of Florida's most ecologically significant river corridors—the blackwater chemistry produced by tannins from the surrounding vegetation creates the dark, tea-colored water that supports a distinctive aquatic community and the river's exceptional clarity despite its dark color. Myakka River State Park, approximately 20 miles northeast of North Port near Sarasota, protects 57,000 acres of the Myakka River's upper watershed in one of Florida's largest and most ecologically diverse state parks. The park's two lakes, the guided airboat tours, the tram tours through the dry prairie and hammock habitats, and the boardwalk through the floodplain forest create a wildlife viewing experience that consistently delivers alligator, sandhill crane, roseate spoonbill, and the concentrated waterbird populations that the Myakka's backwater floodplain supports. Sarasota's cultural infrastructure—the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, the Sarasota Jungle Gardens, the Bayfront Park and Marina Jack waterfront—and Venice Beach's shark tooth fossil collecting on the Gulf shore extend the day-trip options. Myakka River RV Resort operates year-round in Sarasota County's subtropical climate, where the prime season from November through April delivers the mild, dry weather that makes southwest Florida camping genuinely comfortable and the winter snowbird community fills the campground with the extended-stay guests who make the Myakka River their winter home. The summer wet season from June through September brings the river's alligator and bird activity to its peak as the floodplain fills with water and concentrates wildlife in the management that Florida's seasonal hydrology produces. Reserve your riverfront or preserve site at Myakka River RV Resort and let the Myakka's wildlife corridor, the big-rig-friendly infrastructure, and the North Port position between Sarasota and Charlotte Harbor deliver the southwest Florida RV experience with a river view.

Endless Summer RV Resort

42 RV Sites

Endless Summer RV Resort in Naples, Florida, delivers an all-ages manufactured housing and RV resort experience in one of Florida's most affluent and naturally spectacular Gulf Coast communities, providing a clubhouse-centered social environment alongside the subtropical outdoor lifestyle that makes Naples one of the most consistently appealing winter destinations in the southeastern United States. Positioned in Collier County's rapidly developing coastal corridor between Fort Myers to the north and the Everglades wilderness to the south, the resort serves both year-round residents and seasonal snowbird visitors who seek the Gulf Coast's warmth, wildlife, and water recreation in a community-focused residential atmosphere. The resort's social infrastructure centers on the clubhouse with its community kitchen and event facilities, creating a gathering space that drives the neighborhood relationships central to the resort's community identity. A swimming pool, recreation center, library, and laundry serve the daily activity and practical needs of long-term residents, while the dog park and Wi-Fi accommodate the traveling pets and remote work requirements increasingly common among seasonal RV visitors. Live music and entertainment programming adds a cultural dimension to the resort's organized activities calendar, distinguishing it from purely residential RV parks that lack social programming investment. Naples occupies a position on the Gulf of Mexico that combines genuinely spectacular natural surroundings—the Big Cypress Swamp to the east, the Ten Thousand Islands and mangrove coast to the south, and the Gulf's clear warm water immediately to the west—with an affluent community character expressed in a restaurant scene, arts community, and retail district that rank among the most sophisticated in Florida outside Miami and Palm Beach. The city's Third Street South and Fifth Avenue South commercial corridors provide the dining and shopping infrastructure that Naples visitors expect from a community with the Gulf Coast's second-highest per-capita income concentration. The Everglades National Park, accessible via US-41's Tamiami Trail approximately 35 miles south of Naples, protects the largest subtropical wilderness in North America and the only place on Earth where American crocodiles and American alligators coexist in the same ecosystem. Ten Thousand Islands National Wildlife Refuge, directly accessible by boat from Naples' Gulf coast, provides kayaking and boating through one of the most biologically productive estuarine systems in the world, with manatee, bottlenose dolphin, and the most diverse wading bird community in the continental United States visible from paddlers navigating the mangrove channels. Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary north of Naples protects an ancient bald cypress cathedral grove accessible via boardwalk. Endless Summer RV Resort operates year-round in Naples' subtropical climate, with the November-through-April season representing peak snowbird occupancy when the resort fills with northern visitors escaping winter cold for the Gulf Coast's warmth and outdoor lifestyle. Summer's heat and humidity reduce seasonal visitor occupancy, but the resort's permanent resident community maintains year-round social activity and the pool and recreation facilities remain active throughout the summer months. The resort's combination of community programming, Gulf Coast location, and proximity to both Naples' cultural amenities and the Everglades wilderness makes it a well-positioned choice for all-ages seasonal and year-round Gulf Coast living.

Sun Retreats Naples East

12 RV Sites, 8 Cottages

At 3180 Beck Boulevard in Naples, Florida—on Florida's southwest Gulf Coast in Collier County where the city of Naples occupies the position that combines Fifth Avenue South's luxury retail and dining concentration, the Gordon River and Rookery Bay's wildlife-rich mangrove estuaries, and the Gulf of Mexico's clear water and white sand beaches in the combination that has made Naples the most expensive residential real estate market on Florida's west coast—Sun Retreats Naples East provides full hookup concrete-pad RV sites, vacation cottages, a heated pool with hot tub, pickleball, bocce ball, fitness center, and the planned activities calendar in the surrounded-by-nature-preserves setting that gives the resort its scenic and peaceful character within driving distance of the Gulf beaches and downtown Naples dining. The nature preserve surroundings, the heated pool, and the pickleball courts define the active resort character that the Sun Retreats brand maintains across its Florida Gulf Coast properties. Full hookup concrete-pad RV sites with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer connections in premium back-in and pull-through configurations accommodate RVs up to 45 feet. Patios and picnic tables at premium sites extend the outdoor living space that Naples' year-round outdoor climate makes functional across all months. Fully accessible vacation cottages with one bedroom, a queen bed, sleeper sofa sleeping up to four guests, air conditioning, stacked washer and dryer, flat-screen cable TV, fully equipped kitchen, accessible bathroom with grab bars, and a covered porch with patio furniture provide the cottage accommodation that guests without RVs or preferring private lodging specifically seek. A heated pool with a hot tub provides the aquatic amenity through Naples' mild winters and warm summers. A dog park, fitness center, game room, and on-site laundry complete the resort infrastructure. Planned activities coordinated by resort staff—bocce ball, horseshoes, pickleball tournaments, social hours—provide the organized programming calendar that extended-stay winter guests specifically value. The nature preserve acres surrounding the resort—part of the preserved natural lands that the Collier County conservation community has maintained at the urban-wildland interface—provide the birding, butterfly gardening, and native Florida habitat character that distinguishes the Beck Boulevard corridor from the developed commercial and residential land that Naples' growth has converted across most of Collier County. The preserve's proximity creates the sense of natural immersion that the resort's Beck Boulevard address within the Naples metro area doesn't automatically generate. Naples' Gulf beaches—accessible within minutes to miles depending on beach choice—provide the specific Gulf Coast beach experience that makes Naples' tourism economy function: the fine white quartz sand, the clear green-blue water, the Gulf's gentle surf, and the sunset-watching infrastructure on the western-facing beach that transforms a Naples afternoon beach visit into one of the most photogenic moments in Florida travel. The Naples Pier, the Tin City waterfront dining complex, Fifth Avenue South's restaurant row, and Bayfront Place's dining and watercraft rental concentration provide the dining and activity calendar within a short drive. Sun Retreats Naples East is open year-round in Naples' subtropical climate. The winter snowbird season from November through April fills the resort with northern guests seeking Gulf Coast warmth. Summer represents the shoulder season when Florida families and Gulf Coast visitors occupy the property at more accessible rates. Reserve early for January and February at peak snowbird density, plan the Gulf beach sunset for the first evening, and let Collier County's winter climate earn the Naples reputation that active retirees and winter travelers have been building across social networks for decades.

Marco Naples Sun RV Communities

161 RV Sites, 7 Cottages

On 23 acres of lush Florida landscape bordering the wetlands of Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve in Naples, Marco Naples Sun RV Community provides a full-service RV destination ten minutes from the white sand beaches of Naples and Marco Island in one of the most desirable locations in southwest Florida. The community's 300-plus pull-through full-hookup sites back the protected Rookery Bay wetlands—a nationally significant estuarine reserve that preserves one of Florida's most intact mangrove estuary ecosystems, giving the campground an extraordinary natural buffer where wading birds, osprey, and the occasional manatee are visible from the eastern edge of the property. Access to the Gulf beaches, world-class golf, the Everglades, and the Naples dining scene within 15 to 30 minutes makes this community one of the most strategically positioned RV destinations in Florida. More than 300 full-hookup pull-through sites with 30 and 50-amp electric service, water, and sewer connections accommodate rigs of all sizes with extra parking and storage for the extended-stay guests who constitute a significant portion of the community's seasonal population. Furnished cottage rentals provide a roofed accommodation alternative for guests traveling without an RV who want access to Naples's exceptional resort infrastructure. The outdoor pool, shuffleboard courts, covered pavilion, and clubhouse serve the community's social and recreational needs, and the immaculate grounds consistently cited by returning guests contribute to the resort atmosphere that makes Marco Naples a seasonal anchor for the snowbird community. Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, bordering the community's eastern edge, protects more than 110,000 acres of pristine mangrove estuaries, upland habitats, and marine waters that support the biological productivity of Naples Bay and the greater Ten Thousand Islands ecosystem. The reserve's environmental learning center interprets the mangrove system's role in coastal biology and provides guided kayak tours into the backcountry for guests who want their Rookery Bay experience led by a naturalist. Great blue herons, roseate spoonbills, osprey, and tricolored herons work the shallow tidal flats visible from the campground's eastern sites throughout the day. The beaches of Naples—ranked consistently among the finest in the United States for water clarity, sand quality, and sunset views—lie ten minutes west and provide the Gulf Coast resort experience that anchors southwest Florida's national reputation. Marco Island's luxury resort district, connected by the Collier Boulevard causeway just south of Naples, extends the beach and dining options in an island setting with a somewhat more exclusive atmosphere than the mainland beach parks. Everglades National Park's Gulf Coast Visitor Center in Everglades City, about 35 miles southeast, provides the primary entry point for boat tours into the Ten Thousand Islands mangrove wilderness—one of the most biologically rich coastal environments in North America. Southwest Florida's tourist season peaks from December through April, when the Naples area fills with snowbirds escaping northern winters and the Gulf Coast resort infrastructure operates at its highest energy level. Summer brings the hot, humid conditions typical of southwest Florida alongside reduced crowds and significantly lower campground rates that make the off-season attractive for heat-tolerant travelers who want premium Naples access without peak-season pricing. Reserve the most desirable sites well ahead for the December-through-April season, when Marco Naples's proximity to the beaches and Rookery Bay creates demand that fills the community months in advance.
