Look at Williston Crossing RV Park (http://willistoncrossingrv.com/) ts near Gainesville and the rates are very reasonable for annual renters or you can purchase.
This looks like a nice place. Do you have personal experience there? Most of the places closer to Gainesville appear to be mobile home rather than RV parks. I will be looking for a good place to stay at while visiting the college and possibly when classes first start, although again I am going to be putting up a structure of some kind for a garage / workshop, and that's not negotiable lol. I WILL go crazy if I don't have a place at my residence to work on my vehicles and other projects. That rules out long term stays at parks/resorts or buying a condo (or a DORM!!! god forbid!!! haha).
If the permitting and utility costs exceed reasonable levels, I will probably steer towards buying land and living off grid, something I've accomplished in PA and would be much easier in FL, with the exception of powering an A/C but I like to be warmer than cooler anyway. So assuming the market doesn't crash I sell my land after graduation and move on. Definately not going to install utilities for just myself unless I was going to be there 10 years or more.
