About RV’s

Do your own thinking! asked:


There’s a spot in rural Ontario we drive by sometimes that has a decent-sized grouping of trailers. Not ‘trailer park’-type trailers, but what’re often referred to as Winnebagos. Some are rather wee.

Given that it’s by the water, we figured it was a seasonal thing.

Nope. Still there in the snow, with signs of current occupation.

Is that even particularly economical? It seems to me there’d be a lot of unique costs to living like that. The need, for one, to shop frequently while living in the sticks. (Nearest grocery store is +/- 1/2hr away.)

I assume there’re hook-ups for things there given the density in just the one area — what sort of services would there be?

It doesn’t have the expected “Such-n-Such RV Park” sign or any details out front.

Really odd to see a crammed-in mini-community like that. Given how easy it is to see from a not unused highway, I don’t think they’re there illegally.

Any insights on how living there works out?
