Florida Winter Rentals

Like so many Wisconsinites my age, Florida sounds great this time of year... But like a friend has often said, why buy and be stuck in one spot? 

Is it reasonable to find 3-4 month rentals in FLA, to see what area a person would like the best? I would imagine it's far too late to find something now, but for next winter, or...? I know it would be expensive to rent, but I'd rather rent and see what area I like, then buy.

I've seen the AirBNB site, and it sounds interesting. Again, maybe rent for a few seasons, then buy where I like the most. Maybe spend a month in different areas instead of the whole winter in just one area,

Where does one start to investigate this matter?

Thank you,

Arnie
