I’m curious about the RV full-timer lifestyle. I get the sense that many people in RVs stay in one place for a long time, maybe months.
What’s the longest you’ve stayed at one RV park and why did you prefer that over travelling?

We’ve stayed a week but after that, we usually get itchy feet. Generally, if we stay that long it’s because of an event we’re attending or an area we’re looking to explore further.
We Stay at least a month. This helps make sure we can really check out an area well but then get on to a new location. This time works for us for the following reasons we have encountered/experience:
We take two days to go to a new location then stay a month. Driving between 4-5 hrs each day. This puts us far enough out to see a whole new area but not endless hours of driving. We find that by the third week we are starting to get the bug to go and the final week we get everything wrapped up and head out to our new home.
Six months is the longest time we have stayed in one campground. We got the “seasonal rate” which severely reduced the price per night. I was working a seasonal job at a nearby winery so it was good we didn’t have to move the RV. Another advantage was that we weren’t traveling during the busy summer season and didn’t have to worry about making reservations.
