    transportation problems after parking motorhome

    Is there anyone out there who can give me a cost effective way to travel once you've parked your motorhome without unhooking and using it as your transportation? I have been looking at golf carts, folding 4 wheel bicycles, surrey bicycles, etc, but am afraid to take the plunge to buy one without asking others opinions. The last time we went on an extended trip, we rented a car, which was kind of expensive. Some of the campgrounds we've stayed in are huge and a 4 passenger cart of some kind would have been nice. We take our bicycles, but it's hard with preschool children to keep them up with the bigger kids.

    Most everyone who leases a site in our seasonal campground uses a golf cart. The campground charges extra if you have an electric cart and requires all drivers to have a driver's license.

    I agree with Becky ,, i have a golf cart also ,, it's electric ,,, but most CG's only allow electric carts of any kind ,,, u can pick one up pretty cheap ,, and fix it up u'r self ,,, if u like to mess with that kinda stuff ,,, that's what i did ,, only paid 300 bucks for mine ,, now has a lift kit ,, off road tires ,,, bigger elect, motor ,, and even a cd /stereo player

    The lift kit is it for the back of your RV or for the cart?

    Hey Rod and Darlin I have a plain Jane electric GC that serves me well. Now I don't take it with me when we go camping, it used mostly for the Grand kids and when playing golf. Now I will sell it with the right offer

    Hi Jim how have you been doing? Missed you on the chat line, but we know you have been out camping, and that is good. But I must tell you the cool cart are way over my head for a golf cart. I wouldn't pay that much for a truck must less a cart. But some deep pockets will. anyway nice to hear from you take care

    How about roller skates. I just use my feet to get around. I will admit in Myrtle Beach I had to be quick to get out of the way of all those slick status golf carts. :bleh:
