Remote camera question

Hi,
We recently purchased a lot in an RV resort. I'd like to put a couple cameras up to monitor our site and furnishings/etc while we are away. There is free wifi at the park. What would be nice would be a motion activated cam that could send images to my PC and/or cell phone when we are away. Storage of the images is also desired .
I really am not familiar with the current technical options so I thought I'd ask and get some direction before I go out searching
Thanks !

Nest cameras are great. Been watching my home for 7 months. Great product.

Notifies me when something moves, like cats in my back yard.

Also look at Piper has to be inside, when I bought mine they did not have outside cameras.

I like the Ring Stickup Camera that I use to monitor the house while I am away,alerts to your phone and 2 way audio,cloud storage.

Sometimes cheaper on Amazon and Best Buy.

Don't have any personal experience with it but been seeing all the ads and it looks like a pretty good deal; thinking of trying it out. Simplisafe or simplysafe (not sure of spelling). Think they have wht you are looking for.

We recently bought an Arlo system at Sam's (Amazon also has packages) for $369. Totally wireless and includes 3 cameras. Very user friendly. You can arm and disarm with the app and it sends alerts when motion detected. You can set the length of time you want it to record video and will save it to the cloud for a week (I believe - my husband is the tech guy) but you can download to another source if you need to keep it for longer (like to give to police) We are very happy with it so far.

There are many options available.

Logitech has a variety of security systems. Both indoor and outdoor. Our older system continues to work well. When we're travelling I receive email alerts when there is movement along with a snapshot, but it has usually wildlife and the wind that triggers the camera.

Bushnell's outdoor cameras (trailcams) are also effective. Some have a Wi-Fi option. I have the trailcams without Wi-Fi because we don't have cell service in our area. The cameras work at temps down to -40 and it is mostly wildlife photographed along our driveway.
