Okeechobee KOA

If your idea of a Florida vacation is to be close to wilderness and pristine beaches and still be within an hour's drive of civilization, then motorhome camping at Okeechobee KOA Resort puts you in just the right place. The Atlantic coast beaches are no more than an hour's drive away while the myriad theme parks of Orlando, and the rocket launches at Cape Canaveral are less than three hours' drive away. The Everglades, Florida's crown jewel and an international treasure, is about the same distance to the south.

But with so many amenities to keep you comfortable and entertained, you may have a hard time leaving this RV park. With sites able to accommodate rigs up to 140 feet long, the largest of the big rigs will find plenty of space here. Living up to the expectations of a resort, you'll have a choice of shaded or sun-drenched 50/30 amp, full hookup sites with a patio, or similar sites near the campground's nine-hole golf course. Wi-Fi is available, and cable TV service is provided in all sites. Bring your pets along for the ride too; there's a Kamp K9 here where they can run loose.

With so many entertainment options at hand, you'll be occupied for days. The campground's events calendar alone will keep you busy every day of your stay. There's also abundant opportunity to stay active. Practice your swing at the driving range, perfect your putting skills, or settle for mini golf. Break a sweat at the fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, or with a bike rental. Then soothe aching joints at the hot tub or take a refreshing dip in the pool (open year-round). While you're out fishing, the little ones can have fun at the playground. Grab a bite to eat at the snack bar, and with firewood for sale on-site, enjoy a meal around a campfire. Check the general store and golf pro shop for your propane, camping supplies, and golfing needs. Then off into the wide blue yonder you go!
