Great looking unit! Have fun with it.

Thank you. We really liked the fabric as well. Previous owner made custom slip covers for all the fabric surfaces so they can be thrown in the wash. Some of the pictures at the end are with those covers on the sofa. A nice extra feature being dog owners.

Nice pictures
 
Wow,looks like you got a very nice HiLo. If it was me I would throw a blanket over the couch and bed. Dog proof it. If any of your cabinet wood is weak you could just use Minwax stain to recoat it. I used Minwax Early American on the darker wood. Looks like some of the wood is oak. Anyway,welcome to the forum.

Your HiLo looks very nice. We live close to you in Odessa, FL. We have a 3302 and we love our HiLo

Thanks Larry. Yes we are in very close proximity. Looks like you own one of those rare 33' Hi-Lo's I have only​ read about. WOW. Seems to be several Florida Hi-Lo owners on this thread. Maybe we will come across of few of them once we start getting out camping. Still kind of playing and getting her ready. We had an old pop up camper that we are transferring some of our gear from and buying a few new things to get her ready for a camping trip. So far it has been yard camping. We have two 30 amp RV hookups on our property that I put in. One for our RV and another for guests. Everyone in my family owns an RV as do many of our friends. Fortunately we have a beautiful campground setting here at our home on the Withlacoochee River. First trip we are considering is Hillsborough River State Park. Not to far away for a maiden trip. Plus my parents want to bring their RV up also so my Mom can get a shopping trip to IKEA in. Win/Win!

Wow! You have a nice setup there. I also put in a 30 amp and cable hookup in my yard. Sometimes we spend the night in the camper in our "campground" and the grand kids love to "camp" in it. But mostly we love to travel and see new places. I was born here in FL and lived here most of my life, but I have never been to Hillsborough River State Park. Lots of people tell us how nice it is and we have been thinking we should go there.

I like Hillsborough because it fairly close. We may meet at Myakka SP though because it is more of a half way meeting point with them living in Fort Myers.

Man, I love Myakka SP. I'm in California these days, but grew up camping in FL, summer in the Smokies. Hillsborough was another fave, along with Jonathan Dickinson...

I was born and raised in Sarasota so we spent a lot of time at Myakka and Oscar Sherer State Park. Have a fondness for Highland Hammock SP also. We have owned​ a vacation home in the NC Blue Ridge for 20 years now that get to twice a year. I love the mountains.

Treeclimber 04-10-2017 01:42 PM

Love that Oscar Scherer! 4 - 5 times a year. Mainly because it's so close, yet just far enough away. Even if only for a couple of days.
Also very high on our list is Rainbow Springs SP. Near perfect. Right near both of you.

I have been to Rainbow Springs but never in the camping area. Will definitely put that on my short list of quick get away. So many great State Park in Florida and Georgia. I always prefer them if I can get a reservation. I also dearly love Fort DeSoto. EXTREMELY hard to get in for non Pinellas residents, especially in the dog camping area. Always worth it though.

Harmony Lodge 04-10-2017 05:25 PM

We lived in Fort Myers for many years. Kevin was born and raised there. Like Koreshan and Collier Seminole down there. Periwinkle Park on Sanibel was always a treat during off season.

Treeclimber 04-11-2017 07:27 AM

Blue Springs SP, near Orlando was also great. Koreshan has been updated, but that's a little too close to home, about 3 miles. Many reservable parks in Florida. I like that feature, unlike GA. parks, ya reserve a space, then get there and you must look for one that you like. There's one in SC in the town of Ninety Six, really crowded, but in a good location.

Harmony Lodge 04-12-2017 04:43 PM

Thanks for Blue Springs. I had no knowledge of that park. We like camping in Georgia State Park also. My biggest gripe with Georgia is that some parks require you to camp on a site based on trailer size. While that is great for people with larger trailers, it is also a tough pill to be refused a larger trailer site because you have a smaller rig and were there first. We did a vacation strictly of Georgia State Park a few years back. We were forced to camp on a smaller site more than once and the site we really wanted sat empty our entire stay at the park. That was frustrating. Most of our camping will probably be in Florida, Georgia and Alabama due to already having a vacation home in the NC Blue Ridge. Always the chance that could change though.

Treeclimber 04-12-2017 07:26 PM

With the Senior Pass, you can stay at ANY federal park, Army Corps of Engineers Forestry, etc. So when I go to GA, we stay one of those. Also, near Cartersville, GA is a park called Navy Site, strictly military or DoD workers. Only about 20 trailer sites, smack dab on the lake. Near perfect quiet.
