RV parks and resorts across Florida and Alabama continue to welcome snowbirds this winter, with many properties offering special rates and extended-stay options between January and March, according to the Florida and Alabama RV Park and Campground Association.
“Now is a good time to make reservations for the winter season,” Bobby Cornwell, president and CEO of the Florida and Alabama RV Park and Campground Association, said in a press release. “Some parks are offering discounts for those who book their reservations now.”
The trade association operates CampFlorida.com and CampInAlabama.com, both of which feature searchable databases of privately owned campgrounds, RV parks, and resorts.
To help travelers find winter openings, the association recently surveyed its members to identify properties with availability during late fall and the upcoming winter season.
