Have you heard about the latest trend in camping? If you long for the campground/outdoorsy experience, but don’t have an RV, aren’t too keen on tent camping, and a yurt or teepee just doesn’t offer enough comfort for you, then we think we may have found the perfect campground experience for you!

Once on site, they’re hooked up with electricity and real plumbing, which means no messy holding tanks, and outfitted with decks and wheel-hiding trim. The result is still technically an RV, but one that’s designed to remain stationary. And while some do indeed, look like shrunken double wides, others take their design cues from log cabins, Cape Codders and other region-specific motifs. Either way, they’re a large step up from traditional campground cabins…” They go on to explain that in some instances, these park trailers have become a substitute for the big family vacation, in economic times where that is not always a financial option. They’re making campgrounds accessible and appealing to people who may not have otherwise considered one.
