park model

We just purchased a Salem Villa Estate park model due to health reasons for both of us. My days of towing are over and we had to eliminate as many steps as possible. This has probably been discussed before, but I was wondering if there was enough interest here for a section on park models. I would do whatever I could to promote the discussion,

Just a correction a Salem Villa is not a park model it is a destination trailer. There is a difference.

Salem Villa's and Wildwood Lodges are basically the same trailers.

A destination trailer has holding tanks and is set up like a camper. A park model does not have holding tanks, trailer lights, and usually does not have a 12V system just the 110V.

We have the Wildwood Lodge made on the same line as the Salem Villas.

We like ours, but it gets towed when we use it.

for sure a destination trailer. Park models usually stay put once set up. have siding and roofing like a regular house.
