My husband and I have decided to take our NTU motorhome to Florida for about 6 weeks next January and part of February. We have never done anything like this before, but really want to escape the bitter cold Illinois winter for a bit. I have done a bit of looking at state parks and see that they are already booked for next January.
Is it crazy to think we can just hop in our MH and go and just find places to stay? We are looking at the southern part of Florida. We are not picky and understand we will not be on the beach. We do not care about most amenities and will not use them. Electric would be nice, but that's it. We would like to stay in one spot for a few days and move on.
We enjoy biking, hiking, running, and resting. I will say we may be a bit younger than some traditional snowbirds (40 years old) no offense to anyone please. State forests and parks have been our preferred locations here at home versus traditional RV parks. Are we out of our minds to think we can find a place to stay once we get down there??
Our motorhome is 30 feet long and we will have my car behind. We would like to have places to bike ride and of course sightsee. Please let me know if our expectations are way out of line.
My parents used to winter in Florida and my dad says we will be fine, and my mom said we need reservations. I will say its been 10 years since they were last there.
Any info anyone can provide is greatly appreciated. I will say we are not picky and have a go with the flow attitude. Thank you for your time to read my post. If this is in the wrong place please let me know. Please ask me any questions also if that you help you with answers.
