My seasonal site is 900 miles from my house, any further North and I would be in Western Ontario.
Just got back from a 6 week stay.
Like I said earlier what works for me might not necessarily work for other's.
Your style of "seasonal site" would in truth work for very few ... after all, how many other than fully retired have 6 continuous weeks to take off and travel 900 miles just to get to their camper? :R Very few, and certainly not the OP, judging from what he's posted so far about his own particular situation. Reality is, the most logical seasonal site for the majority of us would be one within an hour or two of home, making it practical to use as often as we choose. Unless you too are fully retired I'd bet you won't be heading back to your own seasonal site anytime soon. ;)
Actually I had my seasonal site 8 years before I retired. Most seasonals where I'm at live in the Twin Cities 4 hours away. I agree the best scenario would be a site within a 3 to 4 hour drive at most. You are correct in that I won't be heading back soon, probably not until next spring. I'm more interested this time of year heading South.
One woman has a seasonal site where I'm at and a house in Florida for the winter, best of both worlds climate wise.
The other problem with seasonal sites is the nicer ones tend to have a waiting list to get in to a open spot.
