Excellent write up. Finding the one isn't difficult but does require diligence and patiences. Making a list of needs followed by wants along with setting a not to exceed budget will make the search a bit easier.
The part about a fixer upper is spot on. A tired, worn or dated interior can be improved and updated. Neglected roof or window leaks and the associated water damage not so much. You can love a coach but it will never love you back and sometimes it's best to just walk away no matter how enticing the selling price might be.
Fortunately public campgrounds are slowly improving. Building new loops, reworking interior access roads, deeper sites along with increased electrical capacity. The wheels of government do turn, a bit slow, but camp grounds are pretty low on the budget priority list.
