In all the RV parks we have stayed in, this is the most friendly. The sites here are actually larger than some of the other ones in the keys. With our awning out and our slides, there is plenty of room between the campers. Pet friendly is a HUGE deal for us! We have 2 very large and friendly dogs.... More

We made RV reservations in August 2012 for a stay in February 2013. Upon arrival, they had a large promotional sign on the counter in the office stating "Good Sam" discounts. I also arrived with a "Carefree" $25.00 coupon. The manager told me they DO NOT accept any discounts January through March because business is too good! The Carefree web... More

During our peak season, all discounts are based upon availability. This is a small park and is usually booked a year in advance for December-April. Please call ahead for reservations and state that you would like a discount at that time. The office will tell you if it can be used. Our sites are larger that most RV parks in... More

This was probably our worst experiences ever at an RV park. They make the pictures look great when in reality the sites have only a couple feet between them. It's difficult to park. There is ONLY ONE restroom/shower (unisex) for the whole campground. We have a small RV and use it as our daily transportation. Upon return to the RV... More

The riptide is a small RV park. The people that work there are nice and helpful. The spaces are small and difficult to park your rig. Staff does come out and spot you as you attempt to park. I have a 30ft travel trailer. Took three attempts to get into my space. There are a lot of people that are... More

Let me say that for the price, the Riptide beats every other motel in the keys! $49/ night in the summer!!! We stayed two nights and even had a $25 off coupon from the Carefree RV Resorts website, which made the stay even more affordable! The room itself had a large queen bed (slightly uncomfortable and worn), a large table/... More

I've been camping in the Keys of Florida for years, I've been to many different parks and had many mixed emotions. I heard through word of mouth from friends that had been to Riptide Rv camping/motels. I have a camper of my own and made reservations ahead of time for my husband, myself and my two older children to go... More

We stayed here for the first time in July 2011 after giving up on another campground. We stayed each weekend in a travel trailer. We are staying for 2 months of weekends this year. We understood the park to be in transition and from what we have seen, it is transitioning for the better. Carefree resorts took over just before... More

They ruined our plans.TERRIBLE new management. This place has gone corporate. Customer service has become horrible, the manager is an alcoholic, and they ruin vacations. We have been coming here for years and used to love it until the new owners took over in the summer of 2011. In the past year, it has changed into a strange uncomfortable place.... More

This review was not written by one of our customers. We only have 5 rooms and the people in those rooms have been there for several months. None of them are from Buffalo, NY. We do not have roaches and the rooms are cleaned very well before your stay. We do not offer maid service, but cleaning supplies are available... More
