2017 Snowbird
Might retire by next winter and thinking of snowbirding from around mid January to mid March. We are looking at Ocala Sun Resort in Ocala Fl or Olde Mill Stream in Umatilla Fl. Does anyone have any...

The sites in Ocala Sun are tight and unless you get a pull-thru there are short. Not recommended for a big rig. Free Wifi is probably as good you can get in a CG. Free cable tv with about 70 channels. No shade, grass sites and no patios. Shopping is close by. Small clubhouse and not a lot of planned activities. Price is reasonable -- $505 for first 2 months then down to $471. Lots of permanent rigs but very few park models.
Park is pretty well full but you can be put on a waiting list. They are not taking reservation until first of June.
We are presently in Olde Mill Stream and it is a beautiful park with lots going for it. Lots of activities every day. Mostly large grass sites with huge patio. Lots of rules that are strictly enforced. Pet and no pet areas. No dogs over 40 lbs. Paid cable tv - expensive. Complimentary wifi is being discontinued at end of this season. Old part of resort is all shade, very little grass and is mainly seasonal park models. No shade in new part. Lots of shopping nearby.
Price is going to $700 a month next year. Short term reservations will probably be non-existent as they are really pushing for extended stays of 4 months or more and are giving preference to 6+6 residents. Large waiting list for pet area. Reservations start first part of March.
All in all it is a beautiful park but -------
Hope this helps
