Dover is located in central western Florida near the large city of Tampa. Though it may only cover just over 2.5 square miles of the Sunshine State’s land surface, Dover is the perfect middle ground for those looking for a memorable and off-the-beaten path experience. When you choose to book an RV rental in Dover, you’ll have easy access to several cities, plenty of wilderness areas, and you’ll get to enjoy that famous Florida sunshine.

In the neighboring town of Mango, Florida, you can hop on a bus serviced by Hillsborough Area Regional Transit Authority. Locally known as HART, you should have no difficulty riding around the greater Tampa Bay Area along one of the routes.

When you book an RV in Hillsborough County, you’ll have easy access to the excitement of Tampa nightlife, the culture of central Florida, and the natural beauty of the Sunshine State.

Discover Dover


The Great Outdoors

A great place to begin your outdoor adventure with the Dover RV rental is at the Lower Hillsborough Wilderness Preserve in nearby Thonotosassa, Florida. The preserve is a conglomeration of several outdoor recreation areas. Determined to maintain the ecological diversity and natural beauty of central Florida, Lower Hillsborough welcomes visitors to explore its landscape and enjoy the natural sites that Florida has to offer. Visitors are encouraged to canoe or kayak along the winding rivers and try to reach the swamp or instead hike any distance of the 60 miles of forest trails that are laid out within the preserve’s boundaries.

To the northeast of Dover, Colt Creek State Park makes its home in nearby Lakeland, Florida. With 5,000 acres of Floridian wilderness to explore, visitors can enjoy the winding rivers and swampy banks or traverse through the surrounding forests. However, Colt Creek is known for its birding opportunities. Home to over 150 different species of water and migratory birds, you are sure to be able to check off several birds on your birding list. If you really want to enjoy the solitude that Central Florida can provide, rent yourself a canoe or kayak in the park and relax on the surface of Lake Mac.

If you enjoy a little bit more adventure, then head to Alafia River State Park near Riverview, Florida. Like many other state parks in Florida, you can enjoy the 20 miles of trails that wind through the parks or you can go for a swim in one of the lakes. However, when at Alafia River State Park, strap on your helmet and kneepads, because you will have access to some of the best mountain biking in Florida. You will be able to rent a road bike to bike along the trails or a mountain bike to put your skills to the test as you whizz past this impressive Florida forest.

RV Parks

When you book a motorhome rental in Dover, you’re going to need to find somewhere to park for the night. Luckily enough, there are plenty of places where you can set up camp and recharge for your adventuring days ahead.

Just to the west of Dover is the LazyDays RV Resort. The large resort is home to RV sites and here you’ll find full hookups, laundry facilities, and showers. Not only that, but you will have access to a screened-in pool area, a playground, and a variety of sports courts such as basketball and volleyball. You can even bring your furry best friend along for the excursion.

If you’re looking for something a little quieter, Citrus Hills RV Park could be a nice spot to stay. With electrical hookups, bathroom and shower facilities, laundry facilities, and a patio at each RV site, Citrus Hills may start to feel like a home away from home.

Explore the City

Dover is in the ideal location to explore some of Florida’s most well-known and exciting tourist attractions. You’ll have easy access to the popular Busch Gardens and you’re just an hour’s drive away from the world famous Disney World. But if you’re looking for something a little more local, when you rent an RV in Dover you will be in the perfect middle ground.

If you’re in awe of the gargantuan reptiles that used to call our world home, then spend the day at Dinosaur World. You can walk around the park and stare up at life-size statues, enjoy a dino-themed playground, and even learn about the excavation process and see fossils up close.

If you’d rather see some wildlife that’s alive, then head to The Florida Aquarium in nearby Tampa. Home to over 20,000 individual animals, you can come face to face with sharks, sea turtles, sea otters, and even lemurs. Not only that, but you can embark on a sightseeing cruise for wild dolphins or even go diving in the aquarium with sharks and sea turtles.

After your day of adventuring through Florida with an RV rental near Dover, reward yourself with a local delicacy. Whether you want to play it safe and enjoy some grilled, locally caught mahi-mahi, or maybe test your limits with some fried alligator, you’re sure to find something savory to enjoy as you watch the sun set over the Sunshine State.
