Would like to see a 13' in Illinois

My husband and I are in southern Illinois and have put a deposit down on a 13' Scamp with the front bunks. Theoretically we have til next summer to make sure this is what we want but it would sure be nice to see one in person soonish so we can plan. Regarding social distancing: We are VERY socially distanced as we both work from home and only grocery shop or pick up take out. If you have a Scamp 13' and are concerned about the virus, remember that even if we have it and coughed all over your trailer (which we wouldn't and are wearing masks in public), any coronavirus left behind would be inert within 3 days, max. Crossing my fingers that someone is out there!

Respectfully,

Jessica and Wago in Carbondale.

New scamp owner

We are picking up a 13 foot scamp with bathroom this weekend and are camping Sunday night at starved rock state park in Illinois. If you want to come to the park and see it, you are welcome to. Let me know.

Thanks Steve. Is this a new

Thanks Steve. Is this a new Scamp for you?!!!

So, I think we are going to wait and see if anyone closer in proximity is open to a visit from us. We are back in the school season and making a 10 hr drive round trip isn't in the cards for us right now.

Just curious but when I looked on google maps, the park says it is temporarily closed. Is it open to trailers? I've noticed around where we live that tent camping isn't being allowed.

South of Chicago

We have a 2019 with bath you are welcome to come and see if that will help. We are 1/2 hour south of Chicago. We were in Shawnee national forest two weeks ago. Bummer We did not know then.

Thanks but we are going to

Thanks but we are going to wait a bit in hopes for a closer option. Really appreciate it though. If you come down again before next summer, we might still want to see it. I'll check in with you down the road if nothing closer turns up.

Hello! Not OP but I also live in Chicago area and am very interested in buying a Scamp! I've never seen one in person though, and I'd love to take a tour of yours if you are available :)

certainly

Our scamp is always covered and pulled very close to a fence to allow access to our garage so we will need advanced notice to move it out enough to get inside. . It is no problem to move it. I will talk to my wife and see if it matters when to her.  We should exchange Phone numbers thru a PM to make this easier.
