Wauchula, Florida, sits in the center of the state, halfway between the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean. In 2004, Hurricane Charley devastated the area, causing $750 million in damages. When you search for an RV in Wauchula, you will be only about an hour’s drive away from Tampa, Lakeland, Sarasota, and it’s a bit farther to Orlando.

Kissimmee Prairie Preserve State Park is located due east, near Okeechobee. If you head a bit north of Lakeland you can visit the Green Swamp Wilderness Preserve. If you’re looking for something more robust for an outdoor adventure, the Everglades National Park is due south, but it could take a couple of hours to get there, especially being that there are no direct interstates or major highways that would take you there directly from Wauchula.
