looking for a workspace with RV hookups

Hey, all - I need some help finding a particular kind of RV space.

We live in our Class A Tiffin full-time. Within the next few months we will need some temporary space to complete a work project. Ideally we would like to rent a trailer, cabin or even a garage/shop (if it is heated/cooled) as long as it has full hook-ups for our RV.

As for location, we would prefer being in the Houston/Gulf Coast area but at this point we are pretty open to anything as long as we won't freeze to death.

I've been combing Craigslist and AirBnB with zero success and I'm honestly at a loss as to how to approach this.

Can you think of other ways I could look for a space like this?

THANKS!!

    Yes, it is writing/drawing project! Good guess!

    The project we are doing isn't RV-related. But your idea of using a boatyard to work on you rig is an amazing idea! Somehow we've always managed to find RV parks that don't mind letting us do major work on our rig but if our luck ever turns, I will definitely look at using a boatyard.

    When you do your work at a boatyard, do you live in your RV right at the boatyard?
  • What kind of a "work project"? Do you need clean space for writing, drawing, etc? A Houston realtor should be able to find you a short term house rental. Or are you looking for shop space to saw, drill, sand, etc? A commercial realtor should be able to help with shop space.

    If you are looking for clean inside space, you would probably be better off storing the RV and living in the place you are renting while working on the project rather than finding a place with FHU onsite.

    Industrial shop space you're more likely to find FHU onsite.
  • A project for what? The RV itself or somewhere else?

    If it is a RV project that can be done as you live in it check working boatyards. We have been using a boatyard for some years as our base for anything maintenance & repairs.
