Transfering To Florida For The Winter

The Mrs. and I are thinking about spending the winter in Florida in our Fifth Wheel camper this year. Probably after Christmas.

Can you give us some idea which would be the best the Atlantic side or the Gulf side. How far south and some idea for areas to find camping. We like camping ,fishing and metal detecting. We are not rich so money is a factor. Any information would be appreciated. Rick

Beverly Beach Camptown RV. You will not get closer to the ocean or ICW. The owner owns a swath of land from oceanside to the ICW.

Re: Transfering To Florida For The Winter

sounds like you might be in the same boat as many of us in that money is an object. Beverly beach is very nice and right on the ocean, but guess what? And in the peak of the season. I live in the very center of the state, near Sebring, Granted it is 60 miles to the coast but that is either coast. Rough on one side, go to the other and because it is not on the coast the rates are much better. If I can help you with other info feel free to pm me.

This palce is next to me. You would be on the north side of the Treasure Coast. Need I say more. You can walk to the beach and very friendly place. Couple hunters one of them got me addicted.

It seems to me the farther south the warmer and clearer the water. HH

Advertisment says 14 days stay max. That won't do me much good when we are wanting to stay the winter. Rick

Sorry, I thought you might have been moving around to different spots during your stay.

If you are a senior, the "golden age" national parks pass allows camping at all national parks, national forests, core of engineers, etc... at half price.... 30 day limit, but you can stretch it on occasion? we stayed at ft. Pickens, part of the Gulf islands National sea shore, and they where very accommodating. can't detect in that particular park, but nearby Pensicola beach is a good spot...... either way you decide, HH.
