Florida is a year-round camper-van state — the Everglades, the drive down to Key West and the Gulf Coast beaches are best explored on your own schedule.
Why rent a camper van in Florida?
A camper van is the ideal way to explore Florida. Instead of booking hotels and doubling back each night, you carry your bed, kitchen and plans with you — waking up next to the Everglades and moving on whenever the mood takes you.
With the Everglades, the Florida Keys and the Gulf beaches within reach, Florida packs a lot into one trip. Most vans sleep two to four and drive on a normal licence, so they suit couples and families alike. Prices typically run about $85–$250 a night, and everything below will help you plan — then book directly with the owner on Outdoorsy.
Where to go from Florida
A camper van in Florida puts these within easy reach:
Everglades
A vast subtropical wetland teeming with alligators, birdlife and airboat trails.
Florida Keys
An island-hopping drive down to Key West across 42 bridges and turquoise water.
You can also easily reach the Gulf beaches on the same trip.
Trip idea: a classic route from Florida links the Everglades, the Florida Keys and the Gulf beaches — an easy loop you can stretch or shorten to fit the days you have.
Best time to rent a camper van in Florida
Late spring (May–June) and early autumn (September–October) are the sweet spot in Florida: warm days, thinner crowds and lower nightly rates than peak summer. July and August are busiest and priciest, so book well ahead — especially for the national parks. Winter trips are quieter and cheaper but check that your van is winter-ready and that mountain passes are open.
What it costs
Expect around $85–$250 a night for a camper van in Florida. What you actually pay comes down to:
- Season — summer and holidays cost the most; spring and autumn are far better value.
- Van size & age — a newer six-berth costs more than a classic two-berth camper.
- Trip length — weekly hires usually bring the nightly rate down.
- Extras — insurance cover, mileage limits, camping gear and one-way or airport pick-ups.
On Outdoorsy, the price you see includes the owner's rates upfront, and you book and pay securely through the platform.
Driving & staying in Florida
Most camper vans in Florida drive on a standard licence and fit a normal parking space, so they’re far easier to handle than a big Class A motorhome. You can mix paid RV parks and campgrounds — book ahead in summer and around the national parks — with free dispersed camping on BLM and National Forest land. Fill up on fuel and water when you can, and note where the dump stations are for your grey and black tanks.

Is it better to rent a camper van or a large motorhome in Florida?
