We have been blessed to work at some really great KOAs since 2012. Each one, as previously stated by NY Dutch has had a variety of compensation. Some offer a set number of hours just for site  and some offer a little bit of pay and site. We have worked both franchise and corporate owned and have...

Sounds like you are off to a great start!!!  Let the adventure continue!!!!

Best thing about this site: Fantastic information and fabulous people!!!  Whether serious or not so serious conversations, always something to take from it and learn!

Kim, We are most certainly a maybe!!! ;D Lee Ann

We have never been to Yellowstone and our goal is to be there summer 2016. We are still exploring some workamping opportunities. We will be coming from Florida and it will be our longest trip yet!!! We have been up and down the east coast the past three years and are excited to head west!!

Best thing to do when looking in a specific area is cold calling/emailing.  The worst they can say is no.  Finding work in Florida is DIFFICULT at best.  Seems there is a waiting list at most places until someone gets sick or dies (unfortunately).  We have sent countless resumes, made many phone...

Florida has a lot of nice campgrounds.  We did a pretty good job the last two winters exploring much of Florida.  Fortunately, we have been blessed with a workamping gig in central Florida that provides us a great landing pad for family and entertainment.  Like most have said, prices can vary...

As we began our winter adventures back in late October, a friend of ours bought a 2015 Heartland Cyclone 4200 before we hit the road for our southern journey.  The layout is perfect for what we need as we travel for business as well as workamp in between.  In a nutshell, this camper has been...

Who: Jim and Lee, Abby (mini schnauzer) and Buster (pekingnese) What: 2013 38' Redwood FW pulled by Big blue 2012 F350 Duelly When: started full time in April 2012 Camp Numbers:  currently workamping summer 2012 and again this summer. Our winter travels have put us in approximately 12-14...

Like a house or car, this is a strictly personal decision.  I have been preaching "research" as the best way to go.  Hit up some RV shows in your area and go to the dealerships.  Everyone, literally has an opinion on different makes and models and what works for them and what doesn't.  You have...

This is something that I worry about all the time.  We have a 39' 5er and fortunately have had little trouble in our journeys so far, however, I do lots of researchs on parks as we get close or when mapping out travel so that there are no suprises. I most definately agree with the majority that...

Must agree with the others advice so far!  RV shows are a great way to really get a better idea as to what you will really want.  Also, as we discovered, the first rig will NOT be the one you love.  Leaving the checkbook at home is also great advice unless you are POSITIVE that you are in the...

This is exactly the thing we are looking at ourselves at the moment.  We have a Cedar Creek Silverback which we love, however we know that our next unit will HAVE to be an upgrade for various reasons.  We have been full time since April and bought this unit to accomodate our current needs.  We...

We are currently spending our first winter in florida in nearly 20 years!!  Our journey started in November in Daytona, then a few week in Kentucky.  Then back to Florida to visit family in Tampa.  Currently we are in Bushnell, then will spend a couple of weeks in the Keys, then a week in...

First and foremost, THANK YOU for your service!  God bless!!  Enjoy the RV with your daughter, I certainly wish our son embraced the lifestyle as we have.  He does spend some vacations with us, but doesn't seem to enjoy the simplicity of RV living.  We got on the road this past spring and...
