travel trailers

Portable vacation dwellings

Travel trailers are towable recreational vehicles designed for temporary living quarters during camping or road trips.

Unlike motorhomes, they have no engine and must be pulled by a car or truck.

They range from small teardrop campers to large units with full kitchens, bathrooms, and sleeping areas.

They bought a travel trailer for summer trips to national parks.
