Holiday Cove was Great!
We spent this weekend at a quite nice RV Resort in Cortez, Florida....Just a mile from the bridge across the Intracoastal waterway to Anna Maria Island, a barrier island filled with fine food, great beaches, etc.
This was our first time at Holiday Cove RV Resort.
It will NOT be our last.
Though we are in the dry time of year in Florida, we are also in the fine time when Floridians find lots of campgrounds less-than-crowded, as was Holiday Cove. We here love this time as the "Snowbirds" have returned home, and the Summer crowd is not yet here. & The weather was perfect! Sun, just warm enough....Even a sojourn to the beach was wonderful.
This place had the finest small pool I have seen. Everything about the office/pool/recreation area was spotless and maintained quite well. The secret is a few folks the owners have about who literally stay there, and earn their spot by yeoman efforts to keep the place sparkling!
Here we are at our site, all set up with the "Roadhouse", and little "Sideroad Suzie" in front of her.
It was truly a nice place with people who tried real hard to please us at all times. They did a nice job of "locating" us.....The site was great, and they take you to it, and then guide you into exactly the right placement with no hassle. Loved it!
We ate most of our meals at the Weber "Baby Q" grill outside the Roadhouse (note it in the picture above).....But had a fine Sunday breakfast across the road at a small cafe whose claim to fame, beyond their quite nice breakfast generally, may be as the 1st place cooking hash browns as crispy as the Duchess and I love them....
You'll not go wrong at Holiday Cove.
Thanks folks for a fine weekend.....We'll be back soon!
