Road to Retirement with a Carefree Vacation Home
Hello friends, now that hubby has officially retired every once in a while he’ll give me that “look”, no, not that look, it’s that “hurry up and let’s get outta here” look. Trust me, if we could sell the house tomorrow, I would have my bags packed, but there are a few more things we need to do in order to get it ready for the market.
However, that doesn’t mean we haven’t started looking for affordable places to retire, and one of them is definitely is Florida. Every year when the boys were young, we would board a plane to Orlando for a 7-day stay in our timeshare. Now we are looking for a more permanent vacation spot right on the beach and have been checking out Carefree RV Resorts Park Model Homes.
A typical Park Model home is a single structure that is shorter and narrower than a Manufactured Home. They typically have one bedroom, one bath, an eat-in kitchen and living room. Park Models are eight to thirteen feet wide and have one or two bedrooms. They are under 500 sq ft. which is great because I am tired of it taking all day to clean our current home.
With 34 affordable Carefree RV Resorts in Florida, there is something to suit any budget or need. They have homes ranging from under 20K for pre-owned to 50K for brand new, fully customized homes. There is an additional lot rent paid either seasonally or annually.
Florida truly is the perfect setting for everyday enjoyment and unforgettable visits. With over 50 Carefree destinations for home ownership in Florida—including Daytona Beach, Naples, Orlando, Tampa, Key Largo and Sarasota, we will have the opportunity to experience a perfect getaway in a mobile home we own!
Carefree is currently running a special called “Your Passport to Paradise” – You stay we pay!” With the help of a Carefree sales advisor, your visit will be planned at prime Florida destinations based on your interests and preferences. They will select properties that have everything you are looking for to preview during your personalized visit.
Accommodations include up to 4 nights for 2 guests in a Carefree Resort Home. With flexible dates, subject to availability you can arrive by car or RV and simply commit to a guided tour of the Carefree property of your choice.
Plan your visit before April 30, 2015. Every home buyer will receive a $1,500 check within 15 days after close of their resort home.
For more information call Sheri at 855-999-9812, and to learn more about their communities, including RV resort rentals and Park Models for sale, visit Carefree RV Resorts!
Wouldn’t you love to retire on the beach?
Hubby wants to live the RV lifestyle when he retires. As long as I can see and lift a camera I’m not retiring 🙂
I can’t wait to retire, but it’s several years off. Have a wonderful weekend.
Wow! thank you for such great information on such a great retirement spot. My husband and I still have a good 5 to 6 yrs. at least, but this has got me to thinking that maybe I should get started on looking into places for the hubby and I in NC.
It’s never too early to start looking and fantasizing about living the retired life!
I am guessing retirement is still a long way off for me! My Florida trips will still just have to be vacations for now!
Sarah, vacations to Florida are just as fun!
I agree wholeheartedly!
Hi Sarah! Not only can you retire at our resorts but you can vacation as well! We do have vacation rentals available if you are interested! If you’d like, you can shoot me an email at info@carefreervresorts.com with your information and I’d be happy to get you in contact with our rental coordinator and have her help you find the resort that best fits your needs! All the best, Caitlin
Awesome! Next time I am headed that way, I will email!
So glad you guys connected!! Happy Hump Day!
I never realized how affordable this would be, thanks for the information!
Melissa, you are quite welcome. Enjoy the weekend.
I can’t believe I found this! This is exactly what we plan to do in 3 years! We hope to buy one of these in Florida and one here in PA for the summer. We’re going down in February to check some places out. Never too early to do “research”! I wish I would’ve known about this promotion. We get their emails (we were at a RV show) but they’re always about discounted RV sites, never park models. I already made reservations for a condo through AirBnB. Oh well-I think I’ll call Sheri. We like the looks and location of their Tropical Palms resort. Thanks so much for the info!
Hey Barb, that is truly awesome, I am so glad you found it too – I hope you find something suitable as they have locations all over but Florida is by far the best place to go to get away from the snow! Let me know what you find out as I would be interested, who knows, one day we may be neighbors!!! Enjoy the weekend.
Hey Barb! Sorry we are seeing this so late! Were you able to get a hold of Sheri? If not, you can shoot me an email at info@carefreervresorts.com and I can get you in contact with her! All the best, Caitlin
Thank you for reaching out to Barb.
Great info! We are not quite there yet but it’s coming. I’ll pass this on to my hubby and see what he thinks.
Thanks, I do however, appreciate the click through! Enjoy your evening.
