Florida Seasonal Camping
Just bought a class A with intentions of driving it from Maine to Florida and leaving it down there for three or four months. Any advice on locations, pro and con? I will be flying down to Florida in ...

If you're from Bar Harbor, you may be ok on the Panhandle, but be aware it does get pretty cold up there, with frosts and freezes. I over-winter in the Sebring Florida area in the south central part of the state. I like to spend most of the winter in shorts and sandals. Personally, I like to do some gardening during the winter, growing tomatoes, pineapples, and flowers, and you pretty much have to be south of I-4 to do that. As posted, prices will be higher closer to the coasts and closer to Disney, and you'll find some up-scale resorts. Center state, IMHO, seems to be more middle class retiree centric, and I like the Sebring area due to the central location and the access to shopping. I don't care to drive 25 or more miles to get groceries. Sebring/Avon Park area has a couple of Walmarts, Lowes, Home Depot, a Mall, etc., and a bunch of restaurants. If you like to fish, there are lots of lakes and streams, and the ocean is only a couple of hours away. Repost when you decide on something, Happy Camping.
