Following are more details about our new home.
We traded the motorhome for the destination trailer. We have really enjoyed this lifestyle and travel for 6 years. Life happens and we have not spent as much time traveling with the motorhome as we hoped. It is an expensive vehicle to sit idle months at a time.
The motorhome is 38’ long but we don’t use the front engine and driver’s compartments unless we’re traveling.
Our destination trailer is 41’ long which includes 3’ of hitch. That brings us back to 38’ actual living space. In particular we will have more kitchen and living room space.
A destination trailer has internal holding tanks for fresh water and black and grey wastewater. Connections to water and electricity are via external hoses.
It cannot be hooked directly to city utilities.
The walls, windows, etc are built more like a single family home.
Usually the tires remain in place and there are support jacks underneath.
The unit can be moved like a travel trailer.
It is not designed to be moved frequently, just from destination point A to destination point B a few times.
It is often used on lake lots and long term RV parks.
A park model is connected to city utilities.
It is also structurally built more like a single family home.
It is not intended to be moved once set up.
Tires are usually removed.
We are enjoying more living space and continuing to live in Peace Arch RV Park. We like the people around us who enjoy the RV and traveling lifestyle.
We will continue to travel with our timeshare and other ways yet to be determined.
