We are interested in a Coachman Freedom Express 298REDS Trailer. The total length bumper to hitch is 35' 2". I know some state/national parks have size limitations.
Is there a comprehensive list published somewhere?
Or is there a well known "rule of thumb" for lengths and the ability to stay at various locations?
Before we pull the trigger, I'd like to know how much we are limiting ourselves if we go this route.
Thanks!
No there isn't, simply varies by facility. In the Ocala Nat'l Forest in Florida as an example, two rustic facilities (Alexander Springs/Juniper Springs) the longest site IIRC is 35 ft. and in a Federal campground if the site is paved, you absolutely must keep both the trailer and the TV on the pad, or you will be instructed to park your TV in a parking area near the entrance. OTOH, the Salt Springs Campground is a former RV Park bought by the Feds and made part of the forest. Full hookups, and can accomodate anything from tents to the largest diesel pushers. You just have to check your desired destination when you reserve a site.
