TGO Realty Thanking The Resort Community What a great community turnout we had when we host “thank you” BBQs. It was a great time with owners and guests, including renters, who brought their own chairs and were treated to hamburgers and hot dogs compliments of TGO Realty. We served over 500 happy campers during our Welcome Back BBQ and our end of season Going Away BBQ. The photos surely show we all had a great time! You can’t say we don’t have fun here at TGO!

Broker RV Sites (Rental & Sales) All sites have level concrete pads with underground utili- ties. site hookups include water, 30/50 amp service, and sewer. Standard sites are generally 40’x80’ and can be for private use or added to the rental pool. Owners have the option of adding a screen room, storage shed, or an air-conditioned Executive Suite (see our article pg. 9) that boasts a combined living/dining area, full kitchen, bathroom, plus laundry & storage. Sites were designed to back up to nature, golf course, or lake views. (Note: Executive Suites are not included in site rental.) RV Ports (Rental & Sales) (Note: Executive Suites are not included in site rental.) RV port sites include a custom-built shelter for your RV on a concrete pad with underground utilities and include electricity, telephone and sewer. Most ports also have screened rooms or Executive Suites and offer your RV protection from the elements. This allows you to use your site during inclement or harsh weather conditions. As with RV Sites, the RV Port can be placed into the rental pool when owners are not using them. Park Homes Park homes are another lifestyle available at The Great Outdoors. Besides the park home itself, many have site-built additions which may provide expanded living space, large porches, or extended RV parking complete with full hookups. Similar in style to a “mobile” or “modular” home, park homes are an affordable answer to resort living. Resort Homes Site-built custom resort homes may include an attached RV port or garage with full hookups. Many also include covered or enclosed car and golf cart parking. A wide variety of floor plans offer 1 or more bedrooms, many with cathedral ceilings and lofts. These homes offer you the lifestyle of resort home living with the added bonus of having your RV parked under cover right outside your door.

8 • The Great Outdoors RV Living featuring the Executive Suite

Many of our RV site and RV port owners found themselves enjoying The Great Outdoors so much, they were spending more and more time here. Because it is difficult to entertain any number of friends – or if the weather had them going stir crazy inside their RV – the need for additional “living space” outside the RV became a great solution to an age-old problem. What started out as a simple screened room or gazebo has now become state-of-the-art efficiency apartments. Owners can now have full kitchens, full bathrooms, living/dining areas, plus laundry facilities – and may even add on a large screened room. If company drops in, many of these suites can accommodate them with sofa beds, futons, or airbeds. Plus the guests have their own private suite while you sleep comfortably in your RV! Because of the county's and resort’s rules and regulations, you must have an RV on site if you utilize your Executive Suite. This was meant to prevent the use of these buildings as an efficiency apartment, as RV sites were not designed for full-time occupancy without an RV on site.

To find out more information about these Executive Suites, give us a call at 800-621-2267 or Executive Suite with PORT drop us a line at [email protected].

TGO offers many distinct lifestyles: renting an RV site/port or purchasing a site or home with RV parking. The Great Outdoors is unique in so many ways, but mainly we attribute it to the people who have Non-denominational Church Birding & Nature made TGO their destination resort. It’s hard to imagine that you could find friendlier or more caring people than those who live at TGO.

Our residents have a very special relationship with the diverse collection of wildlife that coexists in perfect harmony with their human counterparts. Our residents are actively involved in the resort operations. Our Fine Dining Restaurant & Lounge residents are mostly empty nesters who want to know Hair and Nail Salon that their home is being looked after while they are traveling around the country.
