We're from Pace, FL. Love our area! April 13th, 2017, my husband had a stroke to his brain stem. Our journey instantly changed. After a very long therapy journey... here we are. Living full-time in an RV. Honestly, other than the stroke and its physical and emotional effects, we wouldn't change a thing. In June, we'll be heading to a few state parks on our way to Lake Manatee. We are so grateful for your videos and wisdom! THANK YOU for sharing your talent and gifts with the extended RV Families!

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Jena, We wish you and your husband all the best. You know we can understand what you are going through. Campground tours aren’t for views 😉 We keep making them because of comments like yours - plus, if we go back to the same campground, we rewatch our own videos. We really appreciate the support. We hope to continue to help this great RV community. Enjoy your camping 🤗 Alice

Thank you so much for this drive thru video. We love videos like this when we are trying to pick out a site in a park. Loved seeing those big blue skies and the white sandy beaches.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Thank you. Larry is the king of site by site tours 😉 Unfortunately, we had only 3 days there. The white beaches were beautiful

[@KayOutsideAgain]

Very good details in your video 👍🏽 I'm loving it. Can't hardly wait to see the real thing 😍 🙋🏽‍♀️ ‼️

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Karen, Thanks. We use our own videos to pick a spot if we return to a campground we filmed 😁 Florida has so many beautiful state parks. Alice

We love the Panhandle of Florida. So much so that is why we purchased a piece of land there last year. We had not stayed at this park but have stayed at Topsail and St Andrews State Parks. Love the site by site view!

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

We had a Topsail reservation but had to cancel. We looked at our route and it was too long a drive. I can’t remember if St Andrews is the one with weird sites. Which did you prefer? Wish we had a site by site tour like ours before we book anything. We would have looked for a different site at Big Lagoon- it was a tight squeeze in site 1 Thanks for coming by 🤗

[@TrekkingwithMikeandDeb]

We appreciate your campground reviews. It has helped us out a few times. Glad you are back out there.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Thank you. We wish we had this video before we booked. Our RV was squeezed into site 1 😁 We had an amazing time this summer. Our last video only shows a third of the amazing places we stayed and visited

[@TrekkingwithMikeandDeb]

I actually changed the booking date to a day earlier to get a better site at John Pennekamp because of your video. Thanks. You did look squeezed there.

[@jesserevilla992]

Love your consistency in bringing us each and every campsite and Geo References of park and the park map and entrance.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Thank you. It’s takes time, but we know it’s worth it. If we saw our own video, we would have tried to get a different site - site 1 was a tight squeeze 😁

[@doricordle4301]

We have several beautiful State Parks to the East of that also. I love watching your videos.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Dori, yes. We just don’t seem to go in that area. Maybe when we head back after our 6 months summer trip (CAAT - Crazy Across America Travels 😁) And thank you. We hope to have time to edit and rehearse more tours - lots of them filmed Alice

[@LeslinAdventures]

Thank you so much for sharing What a lovely state park. Definitely we are going

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Thank you. Just don’t book site 1 or 2 unless you are small 😁

[@LeslinAdventures]

@@DownsizingMakesCents thanks for the tip.

[@BikesBoatsBivouacs]

This park looks awesome! You know I love the campground reviews! The sites look large enough for my rig and provide some level of privacy. Nice job.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Thank you 🙏 You definitely have to pick carefully. We were squeezed into our site 😁

[@vanbrendle]

Enjoyed the video. Thank you for sharing!

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Glad you liked it. Hope it helps you enjoy your stay 🤗

[@CampgroundRecon]

Thanks for the tour!

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Glad we could help. We have many Florida campground tours where we show every site, Alice

[@SmallSpaceLiving]

Looks like a very nice area to me. Hell that looks better then some of the nice campgrounds we stayed in. lol To be beat up from the storm looks good to me. I like the sites that are covered with trees and plants all around. Better privacy. Nice tour and place overall to me.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

The roads and sites were messed up. Our site and the one next to us should be one site - sooo narrow. We were only here 3 nights - would have like to explore more. Supposedly Alabama has a really nice campground close by. Maybe next time. There were some nice sites with privacy. The tower was being fixed. Damaged due to storm. We would have had fun in Florabama together 🤗

[@rickgriffith1]

I laughed out loud when I saw you with Scruffy in the backpack. I see your point, slippery slope that it is…lol I’ll testify on your behalf as to your character Doc. Safe travels. Say hi to Alice. 👍🏼😎

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Hey Rick, Sometimes it fun to break the rules a little! Larry

[@CindyLou-u2o]

Looking forward to being there in May. Want to ride the mountain bike trails at UWF again. Dreaming about it during cabin fever season here in Idaho.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Funny. May is usually our time to “escape” Florida. Enjoy. And bundle up for now

[@jjones5424]

You are right, Big Lagoon looks like a nice beach state park. The campground review was nice, are you able to put a "star" up on the screen every now and then when you feel a site is a "good one". Thanks again.

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

It’s hard to pick the best sites because everyone has a different idea of what is a perfect site. We do know site 1 and 2 are not for us - we had 1 and it was a tight squeeze

[@SevenBears1]

Beaches look awesome.. I carry Bear spray in the mountains do you carry alligator spray in the swamp... Site by site 👍 Thanks DMC

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

No gators at the beach. Look for sharks 😁

[@Traveler7450]

Where I go when I need a beach fix

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Gerald, We were so surprised. We would love to go back, Alice
