Insider Tips & Itineraries from Sugarloaf Key RV Resort & Cottages
If you’ve ever dreamed of calling the Florida Keys home — even for a few weeks — there’s no better place to do it than at Sugarloaf Key RV Resort & Cottages. Tucked between mangroves and turquoise water just 20 minutes from Key West, our amenity-filled resort offers the perfect blend of island adventure and everyday comfort. Whether you’re a digital nomad, long-term RVer, or winter wanderer, an extended stay RV site here gives you time to slow down, explore deeply, and live the Keys lifestyle to its fullest. Monthly extended RV stays are ideal for those seeking a longer break in paradise.
Why is Sugarloaf Key Ideal for Extended Stays?
1. Location That’s Close to Everything — But Never Crowded
Sugarloaf Key sits in the heart of the Lower Keys, close enough to Key West for easy day trips but far enough to enjoy peace, parking, and space. You can explore Bahia Honda State Park, Big Pine Key’s Key deer, or head south for sunset sails and live music — all within a short drive. It’s an excellent base for those considering monthly extended RV stays.
2. Comforts That Feel Like Home
Settle in with full-hookup RV sites, modern laundry facilities, and reliable Wi-Fi perfect for remote work or streaming during your monthly stay.
3. Built-In Community & Resort Perks
Extended stays mean more than just a longer vacation — they’re a chance to connect. Mingle at the Oasis Tiki Bar, join yoga on the lawn, or paddle the calm lagoon between video calls. Every day can be as social or as serene as you like. Enjoy the community aspect of monthly extended RV stays with us.
