Here in Florida you can always find a CG to stay at without even making reservations.
Sorry it took me so long to discover it. Rainbow Springs and Crystal River area. There are literally hundreds of small real nice CG's
Grossly exaggerated, depending mostly upon what kind of "facilities" you need. If you want to stay in one place for several weeks and have hook-ups, you should start searching NOW..
NO, it's is NOT grossly exaggerated. :R
Why would I post something that I had not 'actually experienced'.
I stayed at VERY nice full hookup CG's and I will repeat I never made reservations in advance. I would look for an area I liked and pull in for the night.
All most all CG's whether snowbird destination CG or not keep a few sites open up front for the RV traveler.
If I liked it I would extend my stay another night or so and ask if there were any cancellations for a month or two.
Who wants to be bound by a deposit/reservation to stay in a CG you find out is NOT where you want to spend your entire winter? By pulling in and only staying a night or two first allows you to see if that is where you really want to stay.
Each and every year I came down I found VERY nice CG's to stay at without reservations. And I will add again that NONE of them were the typical parking lot, sardine style, advertised Snowbird CG's crying chicken little the sky is falling if you don't reserve a year in advance.
New RV'ers have to get over the fear of, "I can't go anywhere in my RV unless I have paid for in advance reservations".......because you simply don't have to. :C
