FLORIDA COAST-TO-COAST RV TOUR LEADS CALIFORNIA COUPLE TO LATITUDE MARGARITAVILLE

Sharon and Roger Gibbs moved to Latitude Margaritaville Watersound from Lake Wildwood in Northern California . “ We have lived in California our entire lives ,” says Sharon . She adds that , for 12 years , they celebrated their anniversary in Florida . With their children grown , Sharon and Roger decided that Florida was definitely calling and took off on a six-month RV tour of Florida ’ s Gulf and Atlantic coastal areas to find their home sweet home in Florida .

“ We went through Latitude Margaritaville Watersound and we just kept coming back here ,” she recalls . “ They had us when we pulled into the parking lot and saw that the parking strips have palm trees painted on them ,” she laughs . ” We hadn ’ t even been to the model homes yet and we were jumping up and down !” Sharon and Roger

“ This lifestyle is fantastic ,” says Sharon . “ We work out at the FinsUp ! Fitness Center four to five times a week , dancing at the band shell every Friday and Saturday night and we ’ ve met people from all over the U . S . We ’ ve never had so many friends ! It ’ s so fun with all of the people here and they are so genuine . It ’ s like you ’ ve known them forever . Why would we want to go somewhere else when we ’ re living in a resort ?” The Gibbs ’ pups , Gabby and Addy , also love life at Latitude Margaritaville — especially going to the Barkaritaville dog park , romping at the dog beach and riding around in the family golf cart .

The Gibbs are creating their own reverse Gold Rush from California to Latitude Margaritaville Watersound . “ We have taken at least six couples from California through the models . Every one of them has sold their home to move to Latitude Margaritaville Watersound !

WE HADN ’ T EVEN BEEN TO THE MODEL HOMES YET AND WE WERE JUMPING UP AND DOWN !”
