We have a 32 foot travel trailer that we take to a campground late May and leave it there until mid Sept. We go every weekend, it is about a 40 minute drive and I absolutely LOVE it! We have 3 kids, the camper has 4 bunks and a queen bed for us. We used to go to different campgrounds every weekend, but this is so much easier. We leave everything in the camper, canned food, stuff in the fridge, pots and pans, some clothes, kids bikes and come home on Sunday evening, returning on Friday evening. I bring 2-3 bags of groceries, and whatever clothes we need for the weekend and that's it. So simple and relaxing, no tv, housework, computers etc. We go for walks, have campfires and enjoy the fresh air. We go to a large campground with about 450 sites and we have gotten to know so many nice people, some that are there all summer and others only there for a few days. We pay about $1100 for the summer, includes everything, they even cut the grass on our campsite. I think it is well worth the money. We winterize it every fall for about $75 and store it in a large warehouse until the spring. You could try renting a cabin and/or camper and see what you all think. We have camped when I was a child and started again when our kids were small (they are now 16,14 and 8) and they love it too. It is so much more freedom for them, they make lots of friends, enjoy the pools during the day and being able to do their own thing. My oldest 2 keep in touch with me by texting and my 8 year old drives his bike with a few friends and touches base every so often. This is our 4th year, so our kids know lots of adults and know they can go to security if they have a problem as well. I definitely recommend you try it a few times before buying a cabin, think of any maintenance you have to do and talk to a RV dealer about various campers. We started with a pop up and loved it, until it was too small and we wanted to stay at 1 place, so a bigger camper made sense for us.
