Introduction

Florida is a great state for RV travel, but the "best" RV depends on where you want to go, how much you drive, and how much space you need.

Class A

Spacious but many Florida state parks cap length around 30–35 ft.

Class C

Easier to drive, more livable than a van.

Travel trailers

Unhitch at camp and explore. Great for Florida day trips.

Fifth wheels

Most living space per length, but requires a properly equipped tow truck.

FAQ

What length fits most state parks? Under 30 ft opens the most sites.
