well gosh you're already in the truck and ready to go well welcome back to LivinRVision
first off i want to start by saying you might have noticed we've been doing some kind
of quick and easy videos lately the reason why is we've got a lot of stuff to take care of with
the airstream and everything getting this sale ready just a lot going on right now so that's
really allowing me to put everything else on pause just get the video edited and put all the
other stuff with the with the channel on pause and start working on the things that we need to get
everything ready hang in there because uh things are gonna start getting exciting really soon
we wanted to kind of show you around this encore park in the orlando area it's a suburb of orlando
called kissimmee kissimmee we've heard it both ways either one works that being said
we were told by many people because we haven't been to sherwood forest rv resort and we were told
don't go there all the sights are really tight we didn't have very high expectations for this place
but when we got here we were pleasantly surprised now the site that we got right now is pretty good
size and we're on an insight so there's nobody on one side of us and we got lots of room but
when you take a look around the park and you're driving around it's really not a bad park at all
and the sights are not all that tight they really aren't if you go to vegas 1000 trails vegas
that's tight and we've been other places around around the country that are much tighter than this
and most of the sites here a big bonus are pull through there's just very few that are a back in
sight and it's really close to disney springs all the disney attractions all that so you'll
scoot over a little bit i'll hop in and we'll go check out the park this is 192 here and as
you can see there's the sherwood forest sign i am actually at the aldi right in front of that sign
but i'm going to turn on the road here and kind of show you everything from the entrance into
the park and show you what the sights look like here we are coming down the road from 192. as
you can see there's a club windham sign here welcome to sherwood forest and then you have
the guard gate guards usually are not here during the day but they are in the evening
they do have some park models for sale we've noticed here but the dues are anywhere from
eight hundred dollars to a thousand dollars per month to live here so they're kind of high
right here is the registration office this is where you would pull in with your rv just go right
through the front doors and go straight ahead and that's where you check in so as you're pulling
out you'll see the miniature golf course right there the pool is straight ahead the clubhouse
and you want to take a right here and we take an immediate left and now we're into the rv resort
now straight in front of us down this road here is a bunch of
park models this road has mainly just your newer park models and some of the
areas around here has some older ones but you'll see that pretty much all rv parks
stop here at the laundry room real quick and show you what the laundry room looks like
well we're leaving sherwood forest rv resort this morning if you ever go there don't forget to take
that little key card back that they give you to get into like the laundry room restrooms and
the pool and all that i think there's a fee or something it probably is so we're heading over
to thousand trails orlando and uh so we will be coming in on highway 27 heading northbound
so that we'll have a right-hand turn into thousand trails so if you ever come in southbound
and you want to get there right at noon and check in because they won't let you come in earlier than
noon they will make you turn around or pull into a lot if you come in southbound try to go down
turn into the walmart depending on the time that you get there if you're getting too early you know
go to the walmart down there and then come in so that you're heading northbound so that you can uh
make a right-hand turn in otherwise if you're coming southbound you have to
sit there and you'll be waiting for a line of traffic of rvs having the right-of-way
and you won't it'll be a while before you get in unless somebody wants to give
you give up their spot and let you in and which doesn't we've never seen that happen
um but we don't sit there at the intersection and watch either so that's what the plan is we're uh
we haven't been into the new section we haven't camped in there yet because we've
had friends staying over in the other section that is staying there long term but today we're
gonna try to get into the news section so we do want to get there yeah right at the right at the
beginning try to get in there soon because um they fill up the quickest and uh we just want
a clean spot where it's all new concrete and everything so there's no sand we don't
want to get a sandy spot we got the buyers coming and we want to have a good experience
for them and when we're showing them things we don't want to have to deal with the sand
and going in and out making a mess and just make it a good experience for everybody so walmart's
next to us we pulled into lowe's got about lowe's being here in the parking lot they have
um there's not as many people come here but after we leave here we've got a straight shot
and it's easier to get out back out on uh it's 27 right because it's right here so we are here
lowe's is right here
and then right there is the exit so we'll just go right out that'll make it easier
and not have as much traffic got a lot of traffic to deal with going out of walmart
so now that we've made this public we'll see how long that lasts before this starts getting busy
and we have about 50 minutes i'm sure there's a lot of people that already know about it but
we have about 50 minutes until we need to get there so we can
what teacher taught you math all right guys we're gonna we're just gonna walk across the
street here or go in the back we're just gonna go get something to eat whether it's in our
in our kitchen yeah or across the street depends whatever sounds good we're wasting time we've
eaten now and i've got the gps set for uh thousand trails orlando to see the eta what it's gonna
guess we're gonna get there and it keeps moving now we're sitting at 11 58 arrival you don't want
to get there even a minute sooner we wanted to get as close as we can because especially on that
what is it 192 that uh that highway you just never know there's accidents all the time it's gonna set
you back on time so you just wanna try to get as close as you can so you can estimate your timing
as close as possible and uh yeah it doesn't hurt anything telling everybody
everybody deserves the same chance as everybody else it's just that uh for long it's uh
to be more and more people coming in at the same time yeah everybody pretty much knows everybody
has to know or else it's going to cause problems with people going there earlier and having to turn
around or them putting them in the parking lot by the office so it's good that everybody knows
everybody has the same shot well here's what we're talking about one thing that we
pull this window off one thing that we forgot to uh take account for is the gps is putting the
the thousand trails inside the park we're back in the park so our timing is just a little bit early
yeah we're still a little we're five five minutes five minutes early so take off five minutes from
that what the gps is telling you and uh we've got cars lined up already well rvs we're among the
ones that you're not supposed to be doing this but we're doing it yeah but we're outside of the drive
part of the rv park and we've got rvs lined up behind us i can see one two three more behind us
there's more coming down the highway that i can see that's one thing i don't like
about wintering in florida and coming to this park is the arrival the mad rush to get here
and try to beat people and then i don't know i just get tired of the whole shuffle things
most of the time we don't really care we just pick a site that and especially right now a lot
of the sites back in like what they call gypsy and back in there there's a few concrete sites
back there too it's perfectly fine with us the only reason why we're trying to hurry today
is because we have the buyers coming and we want like we told you earlier we want that nice clean
spot where we can not be tracking everything and they get a better experience too this is
the madness now you can see why you don't want to be on the other side of the road trying to cross
all this traffic that uh nobody's gonna let you go in front of them every once in a while there'll be
somebody that doesn't care because they don't care but the majority of people like oh this is my spot
hey mr turtle how many licks does it take to get to the center of the tootsie pop
i guess he doesn't know got some stuff we're gonna take to goodwill we're set up we're loaded
up going through some things we just um we're not downsizing we're just we noticed getting rid of
junk yeah stuff that we realized that why do we keep hauling the stuff from one rig to the next
and we never use it so we're just getting rid of it but that's what we're gonna do we're gonna go
up to goodwill and drop some things off and call it a day alright let's call it a day
