I'm not sure I'd want to live there either. If she's already told you she will complain about the Motorhome, what else will she complain about? Just knowing you have the Motorhome will probably keep her on edge.
You would need to check with the county/state to find out whether the CC&Rs are enforceable if there is no HOA. In some states, they are. In other states they die with the HOA. In some states, the CC&Rs expire after so much time if they aren't renewed. In other states, they automatically renew until they are dissolved.
You should check to make sure you have the complete set of Covenants and By-Laws. We live in Georgia, we used to live in a HOA. We had the Covenants and a separate set of By-Laws. The By-Laws explained how the HOA was made up, described the requirements of the Board of Directors and things like that. On our copy of the Covenants and By-Laws, on every page, it had the Book # and Page # stamped on it. You should be able to go to the County Records and pull up the original documents, based on those Book and Page #s and confirm what you have is complete.
I have been told that at one time in Georgia, the CC&Rs had to be renewed or they expired after a specific amount of time. That is no longer the case in Georgia. If it were me, I'd avoid paying an attorney as this is all information you should be able to get from your Town/County/State government.
