We have reservations at a condo in Myrtle Beach in late March but we have our motorhome. Is there anywhere we can park it with electric only? We would like to have at least 30 amp air so we can run our fridge and one air conditioner (if needed).

Isn't there a parking lot at the condominium. I don't know of many short term storage facilities that have electric available.Good luck!

No, the condo said that parking lot wasn't big enough for motorhome. I'm checking some fraternal organizations that we belong to.

We all go to the LAKEWOOD RESORTS once a year in SEP/OCT time frame for mini-family reunion. They have Condos, VILLAs, Cabins, and camping spots in their complex... They also have transit parking spots right in front of their main entrance but I don't think they include shore power. We always rent one of their VILLAs on the Lake and can park our POPUP trailer in front of it while we are there. I always run a drop cord from the Villa out to it to keep my batteries charged up. Not enough room for a big motorhome however... Very nice and accommodating folks at LAKEWOOD RESORTs...Might want to reconsider where you go next time in the Myrtle beach area...Roy Ken

travelfool,With so many campgrounds in and around MB area, about the only place you can leave a camper over night is the walmart parking lot on the south side but most only do it for one night while they wait to get into one of the 3 campgrounds on that end. I have seen them also on the north end Walmart waiting to get into Myrtle Beach Travel park or Apache CG. I know this doesn't answer your question, BUT I have never seen a spot with just electricity that wasn't a campground. Closest campground to downtown area is the KOA a block off the beach near the wooden roll-a-coaster section of MB.They might be able to get you into a popup type site with just electric and water??just trying to give you some options.randy

I would just get a site at the closest CG from the condo. It would be safer than leaving it un attended at some lot. Off season CG rates aren't bad.

We just want to park a class A Motorhome in Myrtle Beach

Might check with one of the 2 Camping Worlds there but they probably don't have electric???? Or maybe one of the many other dealers ??????

Just a thought,

I re-read your post, you will only need 15-amp for the fridge. You won't be running the ac here in March. We spend our winter's here (here now) until April 1st and we've never had to run the ac this time of year.

Briarcliffe, in N. MB, takes Passport on week days, might be your best bet, would be FHU's.

Why can't you just run the fridge on LP?

With the cool temps, it should be able to keep all the food cold easily.

If it like mine, the batteries would run down inside of a week.

If it has a genset, wouldn't it be possible to visit the RV once or twice during the week for a couple hours and recharge the battery pack? Not the most convenient thing to do, but an option.

Other option would be to carry the food into the condo and use it's refrigerator. A little planning could reduce the amount that needs to be moved. Then restock after the Condo. Of course, this assumes the condo has a refrigerator.

Really appreciate all the great advice. Our fridge is a residential side-by-side, which doesn't use LP Also, it's chuck full of food since we are full timers. Moving all of that food for 4 days wouldn't be worth it. I have called all the parks mentioned above and they are all $30+ dollars a day and don't have any electric only sites. We will probably use kohldad's advice and use the genset and recharge it once a day. Thanks again for all your advice.

OK, with all the answers and advice given here and some good advice I have one last question, why are you staying in a condo?!
Maybe that is just my non-fulltiming side of me (I do plan to full time when the time comes) maybe I`m missing something? help me out here! this is not a smart??? question, just a serious, but curious question! :B

We are having a family reunion and since everyone can't stay with us for obvious reasons, it was more feasible to all rent several condos. We have 7 children scattered all over the globe that are married and we have 16 grandchildren. It wouldn't be right for us to stay separately from them and not be able to tuck the young ones in bed at night and feed them breakfast in the morning. We would also miss all the comradery of all of us being reunited for the first time in 6 years. Therefore, condos were our "smart" solution. Don't get me wrong, we love full timing ... it allows us the flexibility to travel to our children's homes and sometimes we park right in their driveways. Thanks everyone for all the suggestions.

Should of rented a house or two in a place like ocean lakes. Could park your motorhome there and still be able to spend as much time with them. Having to go over to a storage place and run the gender for a few hours each day will be taking that time away from your grandkids. You are gonna have to pay for storage and it's gonna cost you gas to run the genset. I would suck it up and just go and pay and put it in a park.
