If someone buys a site for $150,000 and spends $100,000 on a camper, that will give them a summer home in the Lakes Region at a relatively low cost. For people who would be challenged financially to buy a summer home it is a lower cost option. That works for some but may not be for everyone.

Most campgrounds in the area don't ask for 150K, plus 100$ per month either. A developer is trying something new in the area. I continue to stand by what I said, the market here is to get people that live in RVs, to purchase a spot as a base.... Some people that really enjoy the RV lifestyle will own multiple.... But when they aren't using them they are able to create income with them......
Also with the pictures provided from the unit for sale, the RV folks that might be interested in something like this are going to expect more then gravel lots.
All in all it is another attempt to make money because of the Attraction to the area.... While I don't think it will fail, I look for this "RV Resort" to under go many changes in order to survive.
