Investment Thesis

Florida's Gulf Coast represents the gold standard of RV park investment. With year-round tropical weather, world-class beaches, and a massive snowbird population that drives consistent winter demand, this corridor delivers some of the highest occupancy rates and ADRs in the national RV market. Parks along the I-75 and US-41 corridors from Tampa to Naples benefit from overlapping demand segments — seasonal residents, vacationers, and full-time RV travelers — creating a resilient cash flow profile that institutional investors prioritize.

Strong Credit Fundamentals

Florida Gulf Coast RV parks represent some of the lowest-risk assets in the outdoor hospitality sector. Year-round occupancy above 90%, diversified demand sources (snowbirds, vacationers, full-timers), and significant barriers to new supply create an asset profile with strong debt service coverage and minimal seasonality risk. Blue Horizon's data-driven underwriting provides institutional-grade reporting from day one.
