PRINCESSW PLACE PRESERVE







We needed to stay somewhere for one night so we picked the Princess Place Preserve county park. Just dry camping allowed and we were able to get a site in the equestrian area. When we pulled in there were no signs or directions so after driving around a while we found a camping area where a horse trailer was parked and we set up camp. Nice shady area but late in the day a ranger came by and said we were in the wrong place and we had to move so we tore down and drove to where he told us. It was a skinny winding sandy road with trees and bushes next to the road. I had to be real careful that when I turned a corner that the back end did not swing out and hit a tree. Had to drive under 2 big tree limbs across the road and actually scraped the top corner of the coach on one of them. After driving about a mile and half I had to make a sharp turn but could not make it without side swiping a tree so I stopped in my tracks and figured out how to back out of the area. Fortunately I only had to back up about 200 feet to a big clearing and that was where we set up camp for the night. When we drove back out of there today, I let the air out of my airbags when I came to the 2 low crossings. The coach dropped about 2-3 inches and I was able to go under without scraping. THATS WHAT MAKES RVING SO MUCH FUN !!!!!!!
p.s. - we found out later that there is a more direct road into the camping area...........DUH







THOUGHT WE WERE GOOD HERE.   HAD TO MOVE.







ENDED UP ON SIDE OF ROAD IN PARK.
