New beginnings are coming to Gulfport. Under a ray of sunshine, workers are bringing life to Luxury RV Resort.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n The resort is taking form on 14 acres of land at the corner of Cowan Road and Highway 90.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Gulfport resident Larry Vaughn says he remembers when Hurricane Katrina washed condos out of this area in 2005.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI think this is a big upgrade,\u201d Vaughn said. \u201cIt\u2019s been a mess here forever.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n He says he\u2019s glad to see the land being used again.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThis is a bigger piece of property. They needed something big like this,\u201d Vaughn said. \u201cYou drive down here and you see the Mississippi Gulf Coast. This is a vacation spot. People come here for vacation.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n He also says he thinks it will attract more people to the city.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThis here will bring big money to Gulfport,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019re rocking and rolling.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n The resort\u2019s owner P.J. Vicari says the resort will be one of a kind.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Vicari says the place will have over a hundred RV pads, a clubhouse with a cafe, and even a resort-style pool.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s things you see in the South Florida area,\u201d Vicari said. \u201cThis isn\u2019t something that\u2019s around here.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n He says there\u2019s no better place to be than Cowan and Highway 90.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWith the best view on the corner, you couldn\u2019t ask for anything better,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Vicari also says 10 to 15 job opportunities will be available when the resort opens. Ground broke on this project this past September and it\u2019s expected to be completed in March of 2024.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Vicari says this new RV park will have a widespread impact.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cEconomically, I think it\u2019s going to be a big driver for the local restaurants and casinos,\u201d he said. \u201cIf you have 102 RV spots, times that by two people that\u2019s 300 people that would be here on any other day that will go out and spend money in the community.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Vaughn says he can\u2019t wait for the opening. He says he already knows what he\u2019s going to take advantage of.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m going swimming in the swimming pool,\u201d Vaughn said. \u201cI\u2019m jumping off the big end.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
