I live in Miami and I am looking for some good camping grounds in south Florida ( I am willing to drive a maximum of 6 hours north if needed). My family and I will be using tents as well. Does anyone have any recommendations? I would love to be able to fish at the site as well. Cost is no problem if required :)

Myaka State Park in Sarasota is a great place with lots of wildlife (gators, deer, hogs as well as numerous other wildlife, good fishing and a great campground , try it you'll like it ! also plenty of state parks in your area that offer numerous activity at a great rates .....

Need recommendation for a hotel near Yosemite National Park?

We are going to visit Yosemite for a day in September. Is there a nice place at around the park to stay or do you have to stay in a nearby town?


Answer
Hey there! September is a really good time to visit, once some of the summer-vacation crowds have left. I used to live and work in the Yosemite area, and have tried many of the places to stay both in and around the park. Here are some recommendations.

*INSIDE YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK*

In Yosemite Valley, the heart of the park, the cabins at Curry Village are fun, though the safari-style tents may be too rustic if you're not into camping. The Lodge at Yosemite Falls has typical cookie-cutter motel rooms -- not worth the price. If money is no object, the Ahwahnee hotel is luxurious.

In the southern part of the park, near the biggest redwood tree grove, the Wawona Hotel is an old-fashioned place. If you'd rather stay up in the high country of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, the park has tent cabin lodging near Tuolumne Meadows that's fun for families, though a bit rustic.

You can find out more info about all of these in-park accommodations here:

*OUTSIDE YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK*

Most of the towns near the park entrances offer basic motel and hotel lodgings, mostly chains, at inflated prices. I've found the fairest deals in Oakhurst, just south of the park. You can peruse recent traveler reviews here:

Otherwise, Groveland (northwest of the park) has some good options, too, in many price ranges. Our all-time favorite place to stay near Yosemite is the Evergreen Lodge:

Just outside the park's west entrance, the hostel-like Yosemite Bug has cozy cabins, tents and dorms for budget travelers, family-style:

Any other questions, just ask! Happy to share what I know about Yosemite. You can click on my profile to email me, too, if you prefer.
