The Villages RV storage facility off Rolling Acres Rd is being repaved. All tenants had to remove their units by February 28th and park elsewhere for the month of March, when the work is expected to be done. So RVs in driveways and parking lots will disappear at the end of the month.

How much do these RVs weigh and to have them concentrated in one area on blacktop designed to park automobiles.. if the Parking lot was intended to be a RV PAD then no worries, BUT these people will be long gone when we foot the price for repairs! As always no one gives a rats tail of the future costs...RV PADS are at least 6 inches thick concrete

..........to quote Paul Harvey " and that's the rest of the story. Funny how some rushed to judgement.

I will have visitors in April that come in an RV but want to park it for 5 days & stay with us, then pick up the RV and go back home. Is there a place for short time RV parking? Would love a phone number, thanks.

You’re right. Until the end of March. Mine is parked out front now, but leaving in a few days for a short trip. Been in front of my home since Saturday.

Default Luxury RV Campground

As ex RVers we have stayed at many luxury & upscale RV parks and think it would be a great idea for The Villages to have one. Maybe over by Lake Okahumpa or somewhere like that. It would be a great opportunity to introduce visitors to the beauty and amenities in the area. Great for our RV friends for a visit as well.

They are parked all over The Villages because they are black topping the storage facility.

After reading 7 posts, I am convinced the RV lot is being repaved.

So they decided to pave the RV storage facility when it was time for the snowbirds to return home with their RV's, who makes these decisions!

I believe that one of the RV Storage lots is closed for repairs/updates or something so the District has approved alternate parking for those vehicles

Don't quote me.
