Visiting Other Resorts in Florida



Cypress Woods RV Resort in Ft. Myers, Florida
Cypress Woods is a gated community with onsite clubhouses, tennis courts, heated swimming pools, fishing lake, and spa. This resort is located on exit 139 off of I-75.
They are busy expanding and presently have over 200 sites . You are greeted immediately at the gate house and their offices are located to the right of it in one of the two clubhouses. You have a very welcoming feeling upon entering this community.
You can avail yourself of a choice of lakefront or lake view lots. Each lot has a stylish 10’ x 12’ store unit which is a real plus for storage or an additional living space. We were very impressed with this feature.
We took a tour of this property and noticed that in addition to Class A RVs , there were fifth wheels on the lots. Also, from the vantage point of uniformity, there were less lots landscaped than I care for and minimal “lushness” of tropical palms and other plantings which we enjoy so much at our resort in Outdoor Resorts.
The property is well maintained and not far from the big box stores and franchised restaurants you find in most communities. It is about 15 minutes from the airport in Ft. Myers which is a plus if you are commuting back and forth like we are doing right now.
The waterfront lots were very nice. I must mention, too, that the lots themselves were quite large (46’ x 90’ with many up to 75’x90’). Another feature of this resort is the capability of building a home with RV port on some of these sites which enhances a full timer’s experience. This was a very interesting feature.
In addition, they have an RV and Boat storage area onsite.
I would definitely recommend this resort for either rental or purchase. It really depends upon what your needs are and what will fulfill the lifestyle.
