Average length of stay of a Snowbird is around 4 months.
Average per month CG rate = $400 x 4 = $1,600.00
120 days in one of the 'now rundown', 'bed bug infested', chain motels at $100 a night = $12,000.00
That's why! :B
Not to mention that IS why we bought an RV.
Apparently you missed this part of the OP:
All we need is a TT for 2-4 (max) weeks down south and then back. We have a place once we get there for long term.
My point is that for 2 2-week trips annually, you can stop at very nice motels for far less than the price of an RV. And when you limit yourself to towing to a 2000lb-ish towable, you aren't exactly talking about luxury accommodations - maybe not even with your own bath facilities.
