2017 winter trip

Any thoughts about where to stay along the way from Sioux Falls Sd to Florida and any ideas about Florida RV
Probably interested in the Clearwater area or maybe panhandle?
First trip in Class A to Florida so any help would be appreciated.

There are different routes you can take from Sioux Falls, SD to Florida. We went to Custer, SD last summer and we took a northern route to avoid the storms going up and more of a southern route coming back to GA. Stay on the major highways and interstates and you won't have any problems. We used the Allstays app on our iPad to find places to stay and we didn't have any problems finding overnight stopping campgrounds.

If you want to stay in Florida for the winter you need to start making reservations yesterday for the better parks.

Good Luck,

Jon

we just got back from wintering in Florida. Hadn't made any reservations until we got there, sure we had to do a bit of shopping but always found a good place to stay. If you know where you want to stay by all means make reservations but for us, we don't organize that far in advance. Happy trails

ditto for us. We spent 7 weeks inFlorida this winter. We did not make reservations and in advance and had little trouble. St. Augustine is amazing. Make sure to put it on your list! we stayed a month at Sabal Palm. RV park which is about 45 min E of Ft. Myers. Nice central location to go touring from. Enjoy!

We are new to traveling with our motor home and wondering if we want to stay in one place for a month or just wing it and hit several areas of our beautiful country.
I guess if we hit an area and there are no spots available we can hit a Walmart or just move on!

Many, Many Walmarts in FL. don't allow overnight parking.
So pick your overnight area stop.
