TS4-2 Hop 6: Tifton GA to Bushnell FL

Posted by on November 5, 2018

TS4-2 Hop 6

TS4-2 Hop 6

217 miles via I-75 and CR 475, with a detour at the end. Cumulative tow miles: 835. Truck miles: 228. Cumulative truck miles: 1245. The few extra truck miles were from a refueling/shopping trip.

The GPS is still obstinately refusing to function, but for this hop it wasn’t needed. We traveled about a mile to get to I-75, then 203 miles straight down I-75. Flat roads, but heavy Sunday traffic and intermittant showers most of the way. Not the most pleasant of hops, but no real problem. The only difficulty was a detour (bridge out) on CR 475 as we approached the destination. That added about 2 miles to the trip.

When we arrived at Paradise Oaks RV Resort, the office was closed. This was not a surprise as they had called us on Saturday to tell us that they would leave the site information for us at the door and indeed an envelope with our name on it was there. We got parked and set up, then I took a walk around the park with Rusty.

I will give a full review when we leave, but there are two obvious problems: no cable TV (and only 2 crappy OTA channels) and nearby train tracks. I am praying that the VERY noisy trains do not run in the middle of the night.

Our overnight stop in Tifton was at the Tifton KOA. This is a pretty basic campground, with a very small pool (closed) and a nice campground store, but not much else. But it had what we sought – a pull-through with full hookup – so we were very happy with the place.
