...and after one false start at Cypress Bend in Estero, we finally found our winter home in Imperial Bonita Estates Where we enjoy more than 80 activities, two club houses, a large RV park rental area, free Wifi, etc., plus the Imperial River on our southern border.
One of our three snowbird areas is our co-op with a low $113 per month maintenance fee. Be sure to make that comparison when you hang up the RV keys in exchange for your little piece of paradise. It happens to many of us eventually.
