Fifth wheel as a guest house

So since 2006 my fifth wheel has been parked behind my house when not in use hooked to a 50 amp service, satellite hooked up and water if needed, level pad and now for the first time I get to do what I always thought would be very cool.

Friend are being transferred to Cali and will be without a house for one week. There gonna be at out house but at night they will be able to have their own space in our fifth wheel which I think is pretty cool! Told my wife they could have the house and we could use the camper!!!

  • We do that, too. We pull out the awning and set up lawn chairs, too. It's pretty cool......I even stock the kitchen for snacks and drinks. :) :)

  • I have done that when my in-laws come for a visit for several years. Love it!
