Back to the seasonal is only a few monthst away!!!!!!

[redseal]

I just love it a place to go every weekend, boat is in the water, and food is in the fridge!!!! come on spring!!!!!

[pushbutton]

8 weeks and 2 days! count down has commenced. where are you at redseal? i got mine almost 50 miles to the nut from my house. resort isnt that nice but have a lot right on the water with my own dock, with access to two lakes. my 3 1/2 year old son and i have been going nearly every weekend since he was 2 months old. i hope he will cherish the memories as much as i do.

[redseal]

we are out of Mora, this will be our third year, already looking at garbage bags, bulk hot dogs and such at walmart...lol. Ours opens april 30!!! its been a long winter!!!

Spring...? Just got the freshly built ice house on the lake 2 weeks ago. Love it. But seriously, I'd give it up in a heartbeat for the green grass,beer,campfires,beer,open water and walleyes,beer,fishing with kids off dock,grilling,swimming,water sports,watching someone mow "my"grass while I have a beer. Did I mention, with a seasonal, you can drive up, crack a beer while you unload groc and clothes,and you're DONE. We are living the dream fellas.

May I ask what you guys pay per year? I would like to find an older fifth wheel and get a seasonal spot.

Love beer,beer, beer, have a beer, crack a beer.

these were the only words i could read, the other ones were kind of fuzzy

zamboni, i pay 2500 for the lot, dock, cable, and utilities included. most places start around 1800 to 2000. you do have to use it to get your money's worth. if your not retired, my best advice is to try to find a place close to your house. also some resorts are starting to have age limits on the trailers, check ahead before you buy or sign a contract.

[redseal]

under 1800 for me and that includes a dock slip for the year.

And ya heat, I love the beer, fishing, watching the kids play, beer, campfire, grilling, beer...lol

The one im at wont let anything older than 10 yrs move in, like said in the other post check it out b4 you buy if looking for a seasonal, and close does count we are just under an hour to ours. Dont think we would use it as much if we had to drive 2 hrs one way.

[Dusty]

We have a 5hr drive to ours but being retired it isn't bad. We spend about 10 weeks at the trailer. Our lease is $2200 including dock and utilities.

Love the seasonal as well. I have a lot in Pathfinder Village between Hinkley and Danbury. I own the lot. Lots of fun things to do. Association fee is $680 year. Pool, golf course, drive in movies, roller skating, etc. Great time. Get there open the door and you are ready to go. Plus we can use year round as there is year round shower houses.

[redseal]

T-minus 14 days!!!!!!!! I think I will take friday the 30th off...

[heat checker]

I hear ya, 1 week left of honey-does,a confirmation on the 25th, and I'm there every wknd till closeup. Lookin forward to it!

[pushbutton]

not trying to rub it in guys but i am there right now with a strong wifi signal, food cooking on the grill, top shelf rum, and a sleeping child!!!!

[dayton_1313]

I have been looking to get a seasonal spot around the Detroit Lakes, Fergus Falls area but am having trouble finding on with boat slips available... Any suggestions?

[pushbutton]

look on exlpore mn, do an advanced lodging search, not all campgrounds are on it though, you might have to google campgrounds in every town up there

[redseal]

Wish ours would open early, but he is a buy the book kinda guy!!! darn its so nice out and I know the crappies are biting!!!!

So when yours gets 10 years old, do they make you replace it with a newer one even though you've been there for the past 10 years????? Sounds like a double standard if they don't.

[redseal]

no they dont make us replace it every 10 years, not sure about the reasoning but I guess the guy dosnt want trailers from the seventies moving in.

[pushbutton]

i was worried two weeks ago i would miss the crappie bite, the night time lows have really slowed things down, while i dont know your lake, would still think you will get your chance 10 days from now.

heat checker, I hear ya on getting the honey-does done! I need to get the bedroom painted and the carpet replaced before May 1st or I maybe late opening the camper up. We are at Wild Woods on lake Edwards in Brainard, can't wait to get back out on the lake!

[bassmann77]

To the people that have campers on a resort or campground all season long, what type of camper do you have? I am looking at pop-ups and am wondering if that would be o.k. for a long season at a campground?

[redseal]

Just check with the owner, I know at our place the guy would be ok as long as it wasnt over 10 years old... a few hybrids at our place, but no strictly pop-ups.. Empty spots in the campground=no money..give it a shot.

[leech~~]

Like redseal said, I would start asking the campground owners. I think a lot of them that have lots of big Park models don't want pop ups next to them. Yes, even in some campgrounds there is some snooty rules!
