We have had a seasonal spot at a provincial park only 20 minutes from home for the last two years. If I were to not get a seasonal site, I would seriously consider leasing long term in a private campground. I'm not a huge fan of pulling my trailer around, especially since my old van really isn't up to the task.
To me, it doesn't matter where we are, as long as we've got a fire pit, cold beer and nature around.
Pros:
1.) You arrive and everything is all set up since it's seasonal
2.) Revolving door of neighbors - meet new people all the time
3.) In the current case, it's close enough I can commute from there to work
Cons:
1.) Revolving door of neighbors - sometimes the new people turn out to really SUCK
2.) having the seasonal makes me feel obligated to be there and my yard gets neglected at home
3.) It's quite expensive for a summer, and there's no guarantee on decent weather
I think a bit later in life I'd like to tour the country in a motorhome or something, but for now with the wife and three kids, I'm happy to plop the trailer in a spot for the summer and use it whenever we feel like.
