My question to you all is, " Does anyone know of an active retirement community up north?" I have searched hours on the Web and have come up empty handed."
My only criteria is some place cooler. Thank you

After being here for two summers, we have said enough is enough. We traveled full-time in our motorhome for 3 1/2 years before purchasing a home in The Villages. Next year, we are going to Bar Harbor, Maine for the summer and taking side trips to Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and the Boston area. In 2025, we are headed to the Rockies in Colorado.
The enjoyment of having an RV is the ability to freely travel, stay as long or as short as you like in as many different places as you like. You don’t have the typical second home expenses, such as maintenance, HOA fees, utilities, property taxes, new furniture, and being stuck in one place. I am not saying you won’t have expenses within a RV, but they will be much less than owning a second home and being tied down to one place.
