I was going to say the same thing. Only problem is some parks will not refund your money. Then they should fix the problem of the offending neighbors

We rarely stay in RV parks. Our Moho is outfitted with solar panels, a barky little dog and an escape artist capuchin who likes to raid other RVs. We spend summers at my daughter's place just north of Seattle and winters boondocking near Quartzite, AZ.

I enjoy changing the view in order to keep a pleasant climate.

Had to look that up. That's very cool!

We aren't full time yet but the more we see of RV parks, the less we want to do with them. I suppose they are necessary at times but as a rule they don't look appealing. Hookups are nice, I suppose, and making a rig boondock worthy can cost a few bucks (batteries, solar, etc.) but we're not taking up this lifestyle to look at a sea of RV's out our window.

But that's the beauty of the lifestyle. Different strokes. Some people love parks. Some don't. There are few limits to how you can live the lifestyle. Back to the original question, if you're leaving the lifestyle because of health, you've expended all your wanderlust or you really want a more stable living situation, fine. All of us, I assume, will reach that point.

But if you're leaving because you don't like RV parks, you don't like moving so much, or your RV doesn't suit you...well, change! There is no one way to do this. Find your niche and enjoy. Make your own rules. Live full time on your terms. If there's anything this forum has a lot of, it's opinions on how to RV correctly. There is no correct way except the way that make YOU happy.

"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."
