Why RVers stay here
Lakes Park RV is a private RV park at 14600 S Tamiami Trail in Fort Myers, Florida, on the Gulf Coast, and it is the budget pick in the Fort Myers corridor. It sits adjacent to Lakes Regional Park, a 279-acre Lee County park with miles of trails, fishing lakes, botanical gardens and kayak launches, and it trades resort amenities for location and price. It suits value-minded RVers and extended-stay travelers who want full hookups and outdoor recreation next door without paying resort rates.
The practical picture: about 100 sites with full 30/50-amp hookups, water and sewer, rigs up to 40 feet, laundry, WiFi and a pet-friendly policy, with good cell signal. Rates start at $40 a night, $175 a week or $495 a month, with electric and water included, which makes it one of the better long-stay deals in the region. Bookings run through lakesparkrv.com. The sites are well landscaped, with waterfront options. The trade-off is that the RV park itself does not provide the pool-and-clubhouse experience of the big Gulf Coast resorts; the adjacent county park supplies the recreation instead. Book ahead for the winter season, when Southwest Florida fills up.
