Can I park my RV here?

Holmes Beach allows RV storage in a garage/carport or side/rear yard, with a narrow one-unit front-yard route. Vacant-property and waterfront-yard parking are prohibited; sleeping requires a qualifying temporary-use permit.

One front-yard unit

Only one of the listed RV, boat, watercraft or utility-trailer units may occupy the front yard at a time. The RV must have current registration and tag. It may use the driveway, project no more than six feet into the front yard from the side yard, or use a stabilized front-yard base with landscaping limiting visible length to 20 percent from the specified street viewpoint.

Private storage locations

Garages, carports and side/rear yards are listed storage positions. Parking on vacant property or in any waterfront yard is prohibited. These limits are not waived merely because a property owner consents.

Street loading and sleeping

Street and city-right-of-way RV parking is prohibited except loading or unloading without undue traffic interference. RVs cannot be used as living or sleeping quarters except in conjunction with a temporary-use permit under the land development code. A parking position does not itself establish permit eligibility.

Who to contact for your setup

Ask Holmes Beach Planning or Code Compliance to confirm the parcel, district, vehicle class, exact location and intended use. Ask the road authority about public parking and Building staff about utilities or site improvements. HOA rules, easements and leases remain separate.

Use the Holmes Beach parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
