I'd love to have a place near Corpus Christi, but so does everyone else. We were on the waiting list for Hondo, but got a lot at The Ranch first, so we took that. This will be our first winter there, although we were less than 100 miles away at Hobbs, NM from January to March this year.
We did Arizona Apache Junction, Tucson , lake Havasu .It was OK but can get a bit chilly at night in the desert. We tried Central Florida and have been wintering there ever since being from Northern Ohio that climate fits us perfectly. It has been eternal spring and summer for us.
Wintered in the Rio Grand Valley (RGV) in Texas twice, Newport North Carolina many times, and looked at Baldwin County Alabama. Baldwin county is on the Gulf Coast. We love all the places we have wintered it. The last couple of winters we spent back in Michigan. Yes, there are a few RV parks that are open all year in West Michigan. Looking forward to getting back to the south for winter.
We still sometimes do a month in the spring in that coastal area of Alabama, and always do November down there. There is a lot to do and see, it isn't as crowded as Florida, plus the prices are much better. However, like Richfaa we will always end up in Florida due to those temperatures during the winter months.
I’ve spent the last 15 years living in SW FL (Fort Myers). Loved it, and used to tell people (seriously) that Tampa was too far north for us. Last June we sold it all and are now full-timing. We will stay in FL for the winter (because we love Florida), but we’re going to try Port St. Joe, up in the Panhandle region. We reserved a site on the water (~ 50’ from it) at an RV resort and marina. We stayed there a year ago in May (before Michael came through) and fell in love with the place. We’ll be there 1 November - 1 May. Literally booked it 365 days in advance to make sure we got the spot we wanted.

Just arrived in Flagler Beach Florida (S of Jacksonville) and will spend 3 weeks in Florida before working our way West to Gulf Shores State Park, Travelers World in San Antonio, and Arizona. Transient by nature so just upgraded my Thousand Trails zone pass to an Elite contract which has 9 home parks in Florida on the contract as I want to spend much more time in Florida testing the waters. With the Trails Collection add on, I'll have a huge selection of parks I can move through "park to park" in the sunbelt states. Not interested in boondocking except maybe for a few days inbetween parks. Initial impression of this area is that it is AMAZING!
