Is it worth it?
Well, we put our fiver away into indoor storage 2 weeks ago after an interesting season. We took the fiver out of storage in early April and got sideswiped by a new driver one week later on the way...

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.
I retired early and have been for quite a few years now but because my wife still has a few years to go a seasonal site no more than a couple of hours away is about the best we could hope for but anything we've seen around here just doesn't cut it for us. :( However, living in S Ontario we travel & camp quite a bit in the US, especially NY state which even though it means a border crossing is really quite close, closer to us than some of our better provincial parks. I've found a particularly nice looking seasonal park in the mountains between Springville and Ellicottevile, NY, an area we're familiar with, that may be worthy of consideration. One would think the border crossing would make it impractical but with a NEXUS card for each of us to speed the crossing I'd bet we could get there in 2 hrs. If the OP could find something really nice like this within a couple hours of home that might be his solution. :)
Thanks for your post about seasonals, it's got us thinking about it again! :B
