The Countdown Begins

[CampingBandit]

Okay that's a lie, we've been counting down for weeks....

So we have booked a premium - now comes the point where I think I should fax a site request and I just don't know what to do.

Do I chance it and wait and see what we end up with?

I've seen recommendations for all sorts, honestly I don't know what to request.

We've got a TT thats 37 ft long with a Chevy PU. Not the easiest thing to manuever....(We are renting a GC from Kenny, an ECV from Walker. We've got a 10x10 shelter that's really just something to hang lights from... the TT has two slide outs. So we need a roomy site to be sure, maybe a good people watching spot as our dog likes to do that....)

I want to be centrally located, so I was thinking the 700 loop, but then I saw a post about some of those sites being difficult to back into. (we have had our backing-in moments in the past, though Dave is much better at it now). Then I saw a recommendation for 1200 and 1300 loops... IDK!

What do y'all think - I do like the idea of being close to the Meadows but I kind of like the 700 loop being half-way to the marina, half way to the pool....

Any suggestions?

(Getting very excited - tossed and turned last night thinking about all the details...)

My vote would be for 500. It is central to all the big Fort amenities. It's right across the road from the dog park. Close enough to the marina to hear all the boats, and the HDDR excitement, and the carriage rides. Most of the decorated sites are nearby, making for fun looping. It is a fairly shady loop and most sites are easy enough to get into. There are a few sites that are unpleasant: one with a giant ele box right next to the pad, and three that share a driveway mouth, but every loop has a couple of 'real dogs'. That's my 2¢. The only other Premium I have a hankerin' to try is a lakefront site on 600, but only in cool weather. Frankly, with a cart, you can be on any loop and have a great time since access is a minor issue.
