Crowe, I can wholeheartedly understand where you are coming from. I know there are many that will boast that they would never do that sort of thing or that they would never stay in a hotel or whatever. But honestly, what you mentioned is very true. Economically, it's not the best way of doing things. You can buy a $100,000 RV set up and if you are lucky, in 20 years when it's paid off, it will not be worth very much at all. But you can a cottage for $100,000 and in 20 years, it will be worth at least what you paid for it, hopefully more. The ease of going to a place you know where everything is already there and set up also saves you money. You are also more likely to use it with it being closer to you than you would try to make those long trips once or twice a year on a short timeframe. And if you want to see something else that is further away, you can always drive there or fly.
Good luck!
Those numbers were figuratively speaking.
