Welcome to IRV. Moved from Somers Point in 06, now in SC.
Check out Driftwood, White Horse and Colonial in your area and then begin your search in other areas. Will help you decide what type RV you feel most comfortable with.
Good luck in your search, when in Myrtle Beach look us up.

Wow thank you all for the warm welcome. The rio station does have pretty good crab cakes, but I honestly prefer Menz' crab cakes lol. As far as picking an RV, im not sure if I want to get something cheaper so I can get it sooner, or save up and go all out and get like a nice big Prevost conversion or something like that. It'll take me forever to do something like that but I've seen some online and they are just breathtaking!

Welcome to the best RV forum this side of the Jersey shore! I was born and raised in Jersey, live in Tennessee after raising our kids in Florida. Guess that makes me a halfback! Jersey boy at heart. Looking forward to reading about your adventures.

RV's no matter what size are a blast




My favorite for crab cakes was the old country house crab cakes in burleigh.. boy do I miss that place. ooo I'm showing my age hehe, last time I was there I think I was in my twenties or thirties.. time flies too fast. They use to have a little zoo in the back. Those were the good ol days. Another place took it over . tried them once and I was laughing at how they were trying to be fancy and serve a pre meal sorbet to cleanse the palate ... IN FLUTED PAPER DISPOSABLE CONDIMENT CUPS ...too funny

I get them now , every so often, from fish and fancy when I am down there

Hey, welcome. If it were me, I'd buy what I could afford (which I did years ago) just to be out and about sooner. Be a great way to learn all the ins and outs of RVing and then you could trade up when the time was right.
