If you're spending several days exploring the East Coast Everglades, stay either in one of the park's campgrounds -- 11 mi away in Homestead-Florida City, where there are reasonably priced motels and RV parks -- or in the Florida Keys or the Greater Miami-Fort Lauderdale area. Lodgings and campgrounds are also available on the Gulf Coast in Everglades City, Naples, and Marco Island. Florida City's selection is mostly of the chain variety and geared toward business travelers, with Internet service and continental breakfast. Accommodations near the parks range from inexpensive to moderate and offer off-season rates in summer, when rampant mosquito populations essentially preclude going outdoors for any length of time. If you crave luxury and lots of extras, head for Miami or Naples -- where you'll pay more.
