LOVE Harvest Hosts! We're about to do 9 in-a-row next week. Great way to reduce your costs as the expectation is to spend $20/night. To be honest, we spend a lot more...there are some awesome breweries, wineries and farms....oh did I mention COFFEE shops?
Here's a comment for the algorithm: I watch a lot of these for fun. There's a bunch of "full timer's" out there who come across as experts and they aren't. They provide opinion on topics or just plain incorrect info. You two are rookies and you've done really well. Better in my opinion than those who think they can give advice. At least I agree with most of what you've said and done, but who am I, right? I choose sites almost the same way. I prefer things a little different but that's preference, not right or wrong. Also we're a 45' Class A towing a Tahoe so that's a consideration. Next, Olivia is adorable, and Nathan is a man after my own heart when it comes to food. We've done a lot of Florida because we live here. Looking forward to the western after retirement trip. I liked that for the most part you weren't staying in the park campgrounds as we're too big to fit. Gave us some nice options. Again, thanks for posting and we enjoyed it very much. Keep it up. For anybody else reading this who cares, this video was spot on. Take it to the bank!
We were literally looking at sites at Bend right before we watched this episode! Haha. It’s really hard to find a site there for the summer that doesn’t cost a bunch. We might have waiting to long to find one. But there is plenty of other places in Oregon we are planning on seeing. We live in Aloha, Or. and are going to go all over the state this year.
Very true Will, Bend it a popular destination but there are many other beautiful spots at more affordable rates. Let us know what your favorite places are this year! Cheers!
Really good info on your process! One more "private" option you might want to add is fairgrounds. We've stayed on some that have really fit the bill for a few nights, have dump sites and most have had ele and water and a few with FHU. Most of the time they have day of availability and sometimes a lot of it. Way to highlight the community aspect of sharing, you guys do such an amazing and entertaining job of getting info out there! Love it!😎
Great tips thanks! One trick we have done is dropping in to an RV park that we like, but is full. We chat to the people and do a tour ( was it as nice as the pics..) and talk about any availabilities and get our name on the waiting list in hopes they remember us! It has worked once for a month stay that came up :)
Great ingo guys - We will be buying a super C next year and ready to retire and hit the road so we are doing our homework now and trying not to freak out on how to move around the country fluidly and figuring out how to set up reserves on a route - safe travels guys - thank you
There’s a lot to know but it’s a fun process Jason! You’ll love being able to have an apartment on wheels and see a lot of this amazing country! Safe travels! I’d recommend booking weekly stays in places you like to get discounts and really enjoy a place without feeling rushed. Cheers!
We love your videos, we are hoping to do RV life full time and plan to mention your site since it inspired us to change our lifestyle. BTW we wanted to know if you do your own editing.
Can you do a video on how you find these places to go .. I watched your Acadia and Michigan video and was like confused on how you found these places. If you guys don’t mind if not that’s ok
The steps in this video are pretty much what I do. Once I pick a city we want to go to, I type in “RV parks” or “RV resorts” on Google, then move the map to selected area that’s close enough to city or destination I would to be near, then click 4+ stars to ensure I only get the best reviewed places. Then, and this is the tricky part, I look closely at the photos of each place and read reviews to see if it fits my personal type of preferred stay. I have a specific eye for the RV parks I like most. That’s the gist of it. The other little things I mention in this video! Hope that helps!
@@ONWorldTravel I’m sorry Lmao I didn’t mean rv spots I ment actaual locations like tourist activities. Meaning I’ve never heard of Mackinac but thanks to your video I wanna try the fudge, And was wondering how in the world are y’all finding tourist places like this. Like these random places to visit if that makes more sense.Most of your videos y’all are finding great places but not all of them are the regular TH-cam travel places and that’s what drew me to your channel . No offense but everyone doing the pick me videos is getting annoying. ( sorry for the length)
Hey CDNelson! Great question! Most people we see at RV parks are 50+. Not always retired per se but definitely an older demographic. We see a lot of families doing weekend trips - 30-40 year olds with children (and usually a dog haha). We occasionally see people our age (late 20's, early 30's) without children, but definitely more rare. :-)

Appreciate such kind words Don, we're learning as we go and enjoying the ride! Cheers!

Another great tip guys! We've never stayed at a fairground before but did stay at a theme park in Kansas City! Will look into that on our next loop!
Great tips thanks!

That’s great advice! Getting to meet people face and face and see a park in person always makes a difference! Thanks for sharing that!
You guys are such goofballs and I LOVE it! Really enjoy your content, great job guys! 🙌
Haha thanks Courtney! We definitely got some weirdness 😂 thanks for supporting!
soooo much good information packed into here! while we don't do rv parks, I found this helpful! hope this gets pushed in the algorithm!
Thanks for supporting, glad it was helpful! 🤘🏽
Nate and Olivia, great information. As usual, great content and enjoy all your videos. Stay safe and get back on the road.
Hey Ssa! So happy you enjoy our vids! We're working on it! Trying to buy a new truck ASAP! :-)

Great video. We start our full-time travel in April, so your advice is very timely. Cheers!
That’s exciting!! Let us know how it goes! Cheers! 🙌🏽
As usual great video!
Thanks Humberto!!
Thanks for the tips. Most resorts are overpriced. Usually, we try Mom and Pop places because you usually have someone there all the time.
We like to mix those types of places in too to bring our overall costs down! Thanks for sharing! Solid tip!
4:20 (no joke) Olivia’s got the Glow like Bruce Leroy! #UMMazing to have this video as I asked this back on another video. Thanks!
Thanks Uncle Mike!
We love your videos, we are hoping to do RV life full time and plan to mention your site since it inspired us to change our lifestyle. BTW we wanted to know if you do your own editing.
Normandy Farms, Foxboro, MA . Awesome
So awesome 🙌🏻🙏🏻❤️
Thanks Taylor!! 😃
Good Sam is awesome and they have an app too

When you going Live
Hopefully soon Rick, just got our finances sorted to buy a new truck and once that’s done we’ll hit the road! 👍🏽
Do you see people your age at RV parks or are they mostly retired-age?
