The Pace Arrow was a POS. The fifth wheel was a
pain in the ass. Best were the Chinook Glacier and the Sprinter in
terms of quality but again I found that if you didn't use them regularly
they became problematic, mostly with critters making themselves at home.

RVing and camping isn't for everyone.

Truer words were never spoken.

Same goes for boats. Regrdless of size.

Ahh, so there is more time to order breakfast from room service! :)

Who the hell wants to eat in their room?

We like an occasional room service breakfast, particularly on the last
day before we fly out.
Marriotts usually have a pretty good breakfast.

We've done the RV thing several times with several different types of
RV's ranging from Class A motorhomes, Class C rigs and a 37 foot fifth
wheel rig. The last one we had was the little Sprinter which was just
too small for even two people.

Although I can appreciate why those who travel and camp at RV places
enjoy it, I agree with Harry on this. A nice hotel is the way to go.
It's not like I haven't tried the RV travel and campsite scene. It just
isn't for me. You are restricted from some roads, you are dependent on
campsites, truck stops and WalMart parking lots and, as I found out,
RV's require as much maintenance and upkeep as a boat.

On this trip to SC, Mrs.E., with the best of intentions, rented a
"Kamping Kabin" for me at a KOA for 14 days that is not too far from
where my son and his family live in SC. I could have stayed at their
house but I like privacy sometimes and with four kids they already had
their hands full getting ready for Christmas.

I got to the KOA and checked into the Kamping Kabin. Very cute. Had a
tiny refrig, microwave, heat and AC. It was on a lake that was
very picturesque. I lasted two nights. The water had sand it it, the
bed was terrible and the TV didn't work. At night my idea of relaxing
isn't sitting around a campfire drinking beer and singing "Home on the
Range".

I checked out after two days and moved to a suite in a Homewood Suites
(Hilton) even closer to where they live. Homewood Suites are designed
for long term stays and had a living room, separate bedroom with a very
comfortable king sized bed, two TV's that worked, a full kitchen with
stove, microwave, dishwasher and full sized refrig. Best of all, they
served a fantastic, free breakfast and dinner every day that were as
good or better than anything I've had at decent restaurants. Christmas
eve was a full course turkey dinner with all the fixin's and even
included wine and beer for those who drink. It's all made from scratch
on site by a staff cook who comes out of the kitchen and mingles with
the customers. It was great.

Best of all, the off season daily rate for the room at Homewood Suites
was less than the Kamping Kabin at the KOA.

To each his own. I find nothing appealing about RV campgrounds for
reasons similar to yours.

Too bad that no one c
