From Chicago for a month I would try for Gulf State Park, Gulf Shores, Alabama - a straight shot. Full hookups, snowbirds can stay all winter, unlike the normal state park 2-week limit, big sites, absolutely lovely beach, good nearby shopping, restaurants, large fishing pier, close to Pensacola for the awesome air museum. In December, take the short ferry ride from Fort Morgan with your car to Bellingrath Gardens. The state park has a clubhouse for activities and volleyball/tennis, etc. Lots of mid-westerner snowbirds down there. Lots of fresh jumbo shrimp from the boats daily. It's a great area!
