HAPPINESS is to have EVERYTHING you NEED,
not the NEED to have EVERYTHING.

11.13.18-Sunshine Resort
What a beautiful and well organized campground. As we checked in, in TT tradition, we were given a campground packet and told which site was assigned to us. Just a thirty second walk from the clubhouse, pool and everything else. It’s also known as Vero Beach Encore, but is located in Fellsmere, FL. The picture below is a site-plan on this campground. We’re occupying site 190.

As you can see in the picture this campground is an Encore. Encore parks are also members of the Equity Lifestyle Properties group. In a nut shell Encore parks are similar to the Marriott Hotels,  four star properties. Thousand Trails RVParks would be grouped as similar to a Motel-6 or Holiday Inn type properties. There are five star hotels as well as five-star campgrounds. Some, I’ve been told charge from $100 to $1000 night. I’ll have to take everyone’s word on these since we’ll never have reason to experience these properties.

Our site #190 for our stay. Great location, 50 amp and satellite access… awesome!

These camp style homes dot the campground everywhere. This is one of TT most beautiful parks and annual residences are popping up everywhere.

Another campground gathering place. Also used for dances, bingo library for books and DVD’s and most importantly the mailroom.


Both above and below is the office where we register when we arrive.
