I can tell you that having different destinations is great for the kids , We started when they were 2 and 4 years old , in a used 24 ft mallard , not what I wanted , but it was a starting point . They jumped on the beds with dirty shoes , broke the screen door , flooded the bathroom , broke the faucet off the kitchen sink , and I didnt care , easy fixes , older camper great times. We have taken them north to ct. and south to NC in the old camper . Now they are a bit older and they are use to camping . We bought a newer used camper thats a great fit with bunks. Packing is quick and easy , you leave most of the stuff you need in the trailer , occupy the kids on the trip , games , dvds , and tablets.
The kids love the different places .
