Forget about 'tying it down'
Travel Trailer/Park model is NOT built like a Mobile Home or Manufactured Home.
Tie Downs in dirt will only give YOU the false sense of safety.
Hurricane will just rip out those tie downs flip that trailer over.
IF hurricane happens you should already be gone to a SAFE place. NOT in that trailer.
Tie downs -----permanent--- are labor intensive, expensive and MUST be done to code

I hate to burst your bubble but if you get hit with a hurricane the only thing left will be the tie-downs. Several years ago we were at a campground in Palm Harbor and Tropical Storm Debbie hit with so much rain we had the TT totaled.
