I was born and raised in northern Michigan (now live near Lansing) and totally understand why you would want to buy a lot here. Don't go south too soon; autumn in Michigan is beautiful and the temperatures will be comfortable until mid-October (be sure to go to an apple orchard to pick right off the trees). In addition to beautiful Lake Michigan, that's a great location for day trips to explore over towards Lake Huron, Mackinaw Island, the Upper Peninsula and Lake Superior.
I have my primary residence in Florida. I see the value in buying a lot for summer use up north. It’s basically the reverse snow bird model. Summers here are brutal.
As someone from Australia, never thought i would be so invested in RV life and you guys are absolutely nailing it. Keep safe and get well soon! Can't wait to see your next adventure!
I traveled full time, with a smaller rig, and also found the need to have a place to 'get off the road' for all the reasons you said. I found a camp on an island in the PNW and have my own campsite. My lot is more forestry than what you have but I'm also on a pond, across the street from the ocean, in a forest and I love it. I've been at this for 14 years and the camp site was really the right thing to do. For all the reasons you said, I agree 100%. I enjoy your videos! Thanks for sharing your lives.
I wish you a successful surgery and full recovery, Kris, and sending you strength and support, Hillary. 🙏🏾 Thank you for sharing the details in this video and may your beautiful lot bring you loads of joy for many years to come.
So happy you are enjoying a wonderful life. Your lot landscaping, the outdoor kitchen, small bungalow and view are simply lovely. Hope the surgery will have a positive results, and recovery time will be short. Side note: I am taken aback that individuals ask about your personal financial situation. To your credit you handle this topic in a very gracious manner.
Welcome to "Pure Michigan". IMHO, Northern Michigan is the best place Spring - Fall. There is so much to do and see. We currently live closer to Ann Arbor but spend many days "Up North" in our Tiffin Phaeton. We also own property in a Motorcoach resort in Florida and plan to spend Winters there after we retire in a few years. We also felt that having a close knit community was important, especially with all the ongoing activities in these resorts. In addition to all the points you mentioned, understanding if the resort is developer managed or a HOA managed can make a big difference on how the resort is run and who's best interest is focused on.
Oh man thanks so much for this. We have land in the mountains of north carolina but have a travel trailer. Weve been considering another small proprrt for a bigger garden, dog park and rv spot. This however is a game changer
I'm officially in the club of the retired and restless, about to embark on the grand adventure of full-time RV life. Until then, your content is my daily dose of inspiration and motivation. Seriously, you guys are like the rock stars of the RV world!
Thank you so much! You made our day 🥰 Glad we can help provide motivation in the meantime. Best of luck on getting ready to embark on the full time RV lifestyle!
Thank you so much,inch for all this information. My husband and I live on the space coast of Florida and we’ve been seriously considering an RV lot up north when we retire in 4 years. You’ve given us a lot of information. Praying your health scare is over.
This is exactly what we are doing. We are in Alberta and travel for my husbands work a lot.. so having a lot to come back to after each contract is a fantastic investment. We also want a small bungalow on our lot that will have a children’s playroom (we will make it similar to an indoor playground on a smaller scale), and a small gym. I really don’t understand why people in your last video were saying it’s a bad investment. What they fail to see, is that you have buildable property, you have your Motorhome stationary but can move your entire home again if you need too, plus this could become an investment property where you rent out the lot to other RVers… and trust me, a lot would rent this location for the space and privacy alone. Happy for you both!
Also, don’t discredit the sacrifices that you both did to get where you are. A lot of people call it luck, but don’t realize the sheer amount of sacrifices you make whilst residing in an RV. The difficulties at times as well
Yes, exactly!!! It really helps to have some type of home base where you can be stationary when you want. Really helps to have the extra space as an office or for guests as well. We're loving it so far and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a similar lifestyle!
@@fuelyourwander I agree!! As for the comments around “you could just buy a house for that”… well yea but than your entire lifestyle changes. We love the simplicity of living in an RV. We enjoy the lack of empty space that’s just wasted. We enjoy being forced to spend 85 % of our time outdoors.
Native Michigander here, now retired in TN. Fully understand why you located to northern lower peninsula. So much to explore! Don’t overlook county fairs and festivals no matter what time of the year. New subscriber…have camped and had a truck camper which I truly loved.
Prayers for your surgery. I have a benign Menegioma on my right posterior fossa that is monitored. I absolutely love your RV site. I live in Michigan and would love to stay there it looks beautiful.
This was a very informative video. Thank you for the content. Your site is absolutely beautiful and I hope you enjoy it for many years to come. Prayers for your surgery. Take care.
We have a place between Petoskey and Charlevoix and this is a wonderful place for the summer and fall. When we get close to November we head to Tucson in our A. Can’t beat it! Welcome to the area, and hope all goes well medically.
I accumulated a total of 89 thousand today. I am truly grateful for all the knowledge and information you have given me over the past few weeks. I started with 5 thousand 2 months ago .God bless you Deborah
l've always wanted to be involved for a long time but the volatility in the price has been very confusing to me. Although I have watched a lot of TH-cam videos about it but I still find it hard to understand
That was a great insight to property buying and costs. The setup you have is fabulous,well done and deserved. Enjoy both RV lot and travels. Maungaturoto, New Zealand.
You are both so blessed and fortunate to have this lifestyle. I also wish you the best on your procedure Chris 🙏 Beautiful pup you have aswell. I am also in my mid 30s female i also work in the healthcare industry at my local hospital here in Halifax Nova Scotia Canada. Work constantly and can barely get by these days and dont even own a vehicle i bus to work and back. Always exhausted. Thank goodness my daughter is now in her later teens and can help a bit at home. But financially the cost of living has gone up so much i can't save a dime. There's nothing left over after rent, utilities and groceries for a staycation let alone any kind of travel. I just dont know how people get to do this its mind-blowing to me and so foreign a concept of having any bit of financial freedom. Barely enough for essentials let alone pleasure. I know many are in my shoes today and we watch to live vicariously through other's lol but damn, it hurts. This is my dream in life i dont ever see it happening. Truly appreciate this so many people this is just not reality for us. You seem like wonderful people so im sure you never take it for granted 😊❤
You two have a beautiful amazing space and your videos are so informative. My husband and I have been contemplating purchasing an RV lot and you guys are very much inspiration for us. Continue happy and safe travels to you both!
Good information, and now at least you have an idea of what it all entails and what costs are involved.... keep up the good work, Johan Roggeman Belgium EU
Congratulations! I'm jealous. But where in Michigan did you find a place without mosquitoes the size of hummingbirds and no biting deer flies?!? I lived up near Sault St. Marrie for two years, did some business near Detroit, and visited Mackinaw Island a few times. All gorgeous in the summer, but the humidity, bugs, and mosquitoes drove me to Portland, OR. You are right in that there just are not RV resorts like that in the Pacific NW where you can buy a lot, which makes me sad. Pacific Shores Motorcoach Resort on the Oregon coast is perhpas the closest in comparison, but no out buildings or covered outdoor areas allowed.
Glad you are enjoying "the mitten". We live an hour north of Detroit - and I'm pretty sure all the state's mosquitoes are in our backyard (wetlands on our property), you're welcome 😉 Hope you stay for Fall and enjoy the colors! If possible, head to the UP and visit: Pictured Rocks, and Tahquamenon Falls. And you can't forget Mackinac Island on the way to/from the UP 😍
I'll just assume Axle loves the new place. Thanks for the video. You have a beautiful place and made it even more beautiful with the renovations and the landscaping updates. The most surprising thing for me of the entire video was the comment on bugs! As a native Minnesotan, worrying about bugs is a real thing. Bugs where I live now in Vegas just burst into flames in the summer. I'd rather be where you are during June-Sept. I think I need to become a "heat bird" whereas you'll be snow birds.
Thank you for watching! Yes, Axle is in absolute heaven. He's so happy here. We thought the same thing about bugs and it was one of our biggest factors when choosing a location. We love spending time outdoors, but hard when there's lots of bugs. This location is great for that because for whatever reason, there are hardly any here. Definitely lucked out!
Happy for you. We love this community. Even if I wanted to spend the $450,000 for a lot, the community would reject us because we have a new Class B. Only Class A's allowed.
We've run into the same issue, too, but hear that some resorts are beginning to amend their rules to allow newer, smaller, self-contained rigs. We little guys may need a "docking station" even more than the big guys!
It's kind of like a "docking station" for RV-ing. As you said, a few months for doctors' appointments, repairs, but also to rest and re-group. Also, there may amenities: a pool, tennis courts, etc. Nice video! (Beautiful RV!)
It's such a beautiful location! We spend all our time outdoors now. Perfect setup. Looking into a southern location for sure since we're enjoying the feeling of being semi settled while also have the freedom to travel.
You're a lovely couple and you deserve all that you have worked so hard for. As a Brit im just blown away at how stunning your country is. Like yourselves, given the financial circumstances I would choose your exact location;- I mean, isn't it beautiful !! By the by: You're claass A is stunning. In the UK you wouldn't get that size of vehicle to fit down many of our lanes, but, WOW, what a beautiful coach. I wish you a wonderful life as you settle - to a degree - in your gorgeous new part of thee world. Stu.
Thank you so much for the thoughtful comment! We love the UK and hope to get back one day - but you are correct, our coach would be a challenge on your roads.
Glad you are enjoying Michigan. It is a pretty state. We just need a couple mountains and a canyon... I've lived here my whole life. Let;s say I've been 29 longer than it took me to get to be 29! So 29 with LOTS of experience
Love the "how will you keep everything safe while you're gone" question. As if there is a rash of thieves lurking around in the dead of the upper MI snowy winter, looking for opportunities to steal outside appliances. I somehow don't picture that as a high-crime area, especially with sub-zero temps and a foot of snow.
As you stated, the availability of RV sites is getting tougher and that’s exactly why I set up my motorhome with solar lithium batteries so I can Boondock anywhere I want to park in this beautiful country of ours.
Will you try and enclose the outdoor kitchen for winter? Winters are so harsh in Michigan it just seems so unpleasant to try and do indoor/outdoor living during those months. It's a lovely RV park.
You need a base camp even when you have an RV. I prefer to be in an RV resort because of the security. We park our RV in central Florida where there is 1600 units! There are RV lots, mobile homes, RV ports, and even multi million dollar homes where you can park the RV in a garage. Our RV resort has a gate guard, golf course, 2 pools, post office, community hall, craft building, Pickle Ball, carpentry building, waste water treatment center, and more.
Fabulous lot. We are looking for something similar in the PNW and you are correct. Nothing. Disappointing for us as we need to stay in this area for family!
HEY THINK U LIVE A PERFECT LIFE FOR U (NO MATTER WHAT OTHER PEOPLE SAY OR THINK) THINK U R AWSOME AND SUPER NICE AND U MAKE GREAT VIDEOS EASY TO UNDERSTAND 👍🏼 BRAVO. LOVE FROM DENMARK😊
I ran from Michigan 😂❤ love it all my life visit is great 👍 go to Frankenmuth see the big ships at algonac Michigan st. Clair 😊 good luck on your new site ❤
Thank you for answering my question (how much did the rv lot cost) however a grand total amount of what you paid could be the answer like $100k or $200k i was expecting such answer. Any way thank you for answering the question love from india. Stay happy and healthy
Hi, that resort looks fantastic we would like to see what is available , go stay and see what it is all about. Is it Heartside Grove in Petoskey ? We really enjoy watching your videos, thanks for making them.
The property taxes are probably higher because you have a form of water on your lot. Michigan is surrounded by lakes so they use it to their advantage. Thanks for the video I learned a lot!
As a homeowner in the Upper Penisula, the real northern Michigan, it is a common misnomer to refer to the northern portion of Lower Peninsula as northern Michigan; however, the real Northern Michigan is on the other side of the Mackinac Bridge.
Very informative …. thanks!! Question: you mentioned working in healthcare tech. Any advice, tips, ect for one of our daughters looking to make change to the healthcare tech sector? She currently has a bachelor’s in marketing.
That was my career - I (Hillary) led marketing at several healthcare tech companies. Best advice is to get in first with companies that provide services for pharma companies. Lots of marketing type positions in those companies. Start ups are great but can be volatile. If she’s interested in networking, I’d be happy to chat with her. She can email us at hello@fuelyourwander.com!

Hello!! how do you make such monthly, I'm a born Christian and sometimes I feel so down of myself because of low finance but I still believe in God
Thanks to my co-worker (Johnson ) who suggested expert Deborah Davis
After I raised up to 525k trading with her I bought a new House and a car here in the
state🇺🇸 also paid for my son's
surgery....Glory to God, shalom.
Can I also do it??? My life is facing lots of challenges lately

Marvelous RVs...Elegant with all the amenities and facilities...Thumbs up
Hey fellow PNW Native! Just found your channel! Prayers for a safe surgery and fast healing!
Thanks for following! We love the PNW and I (Kris) grew up in WA. 😀
I think you made a great choice. We park our motorhome west of the town you are east of for the month of August each year.
Beautiful area in the summer! Enjoy! ❤️
Great video. I wish Chris the best in his procedure and enjoy everything that you have.
Thank you so much!
Good luck with the surgery man. Just watching this video now!

Happy for you. We love this community. Even if I wanted to spend the $450,000 for a lot, the community would reject us because we have a new Class B. Only Class A's allowed.
We had a new Super C and we couldn’t rent here…
We've run into the same issue, too, but hear that some resorts are beginning to amend their rules to allow newer, smaller, self-contained rigs. We little guys may need a "docking station" even more than the big guys!
Thanks for breaking it all down financially! That was simply all I was asking as to how much! You answered my curiosity!😊
LOL - the "Hundred dollar scratcher" clearly put you over the top! Great video, guys.
Totally! 😀😀 Thank you!
It's kind of like a "docking station" for RV-ing. As you said, a few months for doctors' appointments, repairs, but also to rest and re-group. Also, there may amenities: a pool, tennis courts, etc. Nice video! (Beautiful RV!)
Yep, exactly! As a full time RVer, it really helps to have some type of place to be stationary for these types of things.
Lots of useful tips in this video. Prayers that Chris's surgery goes well.
Thank you! ❤️
All I can say is congratulations over and over again!!!!
Thank you!
@@fuelyourwander 😀
Wow, what a amazing place
Wishing you positive results and a speedy, full recovery. 🙏
Thank you so much 😊
😮 300$ a month!! … well it looks amazing! 🇺🇸
We're camped out on our burned out farmstead for the summers.
(Wintered over in very mild Minnesota last winter)
We're going south for the winter.
Great Video, I know the area you are in and it's beautiful up there, great choice! Now you just need a southern spot as well. Thanks for sharing!!
It's such a beautiful location! We spend all our time outdoors now. Perfect setup. Looking into a southern location for sure since we're enjoying the feeling of being semi settled while also have the freedom to travel.
162M views in 2 years, that's amazing. Great content. Get that bag!
👍
On one of ur videos Chris had added suction cameras on ur coach. I’m new to RVing and just got Tiffin Phaeton. Thanks
Roku cameras. They are wireless and connect directly to our Roku TVs. Very handy. I got the suction cup mounts from Amazon.
Thx for sharing! GL with your family and medical care!!!!!!!!!
You're a lovely couple and you deserve all that you have worked so hard for. As a Brit im just blown away at how stunning your country is.

@@fuelyourwander 😀👋
It is a beautiful place. Congrats!
Glad you are enjoying Michigan. It is a pretty state. We just need a couple mountains and a canyon... I've lived here my whole life. Let;s say I've been 29 longer than it took me to get to be 29! So 29 with LOTS of experience
That is awesome! We love this state. 😀
You should check out Pacific Shores Motor Coach Resort in Newport Oregon, we own there and it’s awesome! Love your site BTW!
Thanks for the tip! We love the PNW and will have to check it out.
A lot of people forget that real estate purchases are public record so it is very easy to look up purchase prices of lots with deeds.
Yep everyone is able to do their own research 😀
Love the "how will you keep everything safe while you're gone" question. As if there is a rash of thieves lurking around in the dead of the upper MI snowy winter, looking for opportunities to steal outside appliances. I somehow don't picture that as a high-crime area, especially with sub-zero temps and a foot of snow.
LOL. 💯 😀
As you stated, the availability of RV sites is getting tougher and that’s exactly why I set up my motorhome with solar lithium batteries so I can Boondock anywhere I want to park in this beautiful country of ours.
Boondocking a great option. 😀
In my view, it’s the best option.
Will you try and enclose the outdoor kitchen for winter? Winters are so harsh in Michigan it just seems so unpleasant to try and do indoor/outdoor living during those months. It's a lovely RV park.
That's the plan!

Thanks for the thoughts and prayers! ❤️
I ran from Michigan 😂❤ love it all my life visit is great 👍 go to Frankenmuth see the big ships at algonac Michigan st. Clair 😊 good luck on your new site ❤
I was curious if once your RV reaches 10 years old, would you have to go purchase a new one?
Great question. I’m not sure.
Thank you for answering my question (how much did the rv lot cost) however a grand total amount of what you paid could be the answer like $100k or $200k i was expecting such answer. Any way thank you for answering the question love from india. Stay happy and healthy
Double that lol
Thank you that was very interesting and appreciate the content.
Y’all have a beautiful place ♥️♥️

Praying for speedy healing ❤️🩹😊👍🏽🙏🏽

Did you do all the landscaping and having the patio and bungalow built or did it come that way?
Hi, that resort looks fantastic we would like to see what is available , go stay and see what it is all about. Is it Heartside Grove in Petoskey ? We really enjoy watching your videos, thanks for making them.
We visit good friends here and actually contemplated buying lot 251 but hesitated and unfortunately it’s been sold to very nice people lol
It’s a great lot from what we hear. 😀
Are you able to put up a fence for dogs?
Unfortunately, no. They do not allow fences.
The property taxes are probably higher because you have a form of water on your lot. Michigan is surrounded by lakes so they use it to their advantage. Thanks for the video I learned a lot!
Thank you for watching! Glad it was helpful. 😀
Very informative video. Thank you
Glad it was helpful! Thank you! 😀
As a homeowner in the Upper Penisula, the real northern Michigan, it is a common misnomer to refer to the northern portion of Lower Peninsula as northern Michigan; however, the real Northern Michigan is on the other side of the Mackinac Bridge.
Thanks for sharing and correcting us. 😀
What kind of RV is that you all have and it was very nice fixing to buy one just curious
We have a 2023 American Coach, American Dream 45A. We love the layout and features.😀
Do you need a cdl or air break endorsement to be able to drive your class A coach?
You need a class B license.
Very informative …. thanks!! Question: you mentioned working in healthcare tech. Any advice, tips, ect for one of our daughters looking to make change to the healthcare tech sector? She currently has a bachelor’s in marketing.
That was my career - I (Hillary) led marketing at several healthcare tech companies. Best advice is to get in first with companies that provide services for pharma companies. Lots of marketing type positions in those companies. Start ups are great but can be volatile. If she’s interested in networking, I’d be happy to chat with her. She can email us at hello@fuelyourwander.com!
Great video. Thanks for the info.
Glad it was helpful!

Can you talk about health insurance while traveling to through the USA
We have health insurance and it works across every state. It can be difficult to find doctors when traveling, but insurance has not been an issue.😀
Thanks.
Keep up the great work
Awesome video and lot. Hope he's ok❤❤❤❤

Millionaire lifestyle is perfect for Millionaires. 🎉
Not to worry. I know the area well, by January the snow is so deep the only things that can be stolen will have to be carried on snowmobiles...LOL
So very true!
What is the name of this resort?
I’m wondering the cost to buy the lot?
You replaced your mattress in one of your videos, could you recommend something. We have a sleep number 👎🏻 and it’s got to go!
We replaced our mattress with Brooklyn Bedding. Highly recommend them.
What is the nearest town to your site
Define town. Detroit?
What is the name of that great place? Community
What is the average price off the lots
Depends on the lot, hoa, park rental fees (they take a portion), electricity, insurance, & a lux class A rv
I think it's cool
Where is this located?
Michigan.
Petosky, Michigan. It's a great area.
Buying 2 lots is fun for you guys. But going to Vietnam is horrific. 😂
We are looking forward to visiting Vietnam...
You did not say what RV resort you bought in but as a Class A owner from MI I am familiar with your resort. Nice place.
Thanks. We agree. Great place! 😀
