Campsites for long term campers who also travel

What Do You Look For?

I am thinking about opening a van/camper/RV/camping place. It will be quite simple. My kids are out on their own. I have the support of my husband, and I finish school in the spring. As I have traveled, I have seen many abandoned hotels and motels, etc… I would love to run a place of my own. When you chose to stay at a place, what do you look for? Many travelers are self-contained in their rigs, but there may be something they seek when stopping through their journey.

I just gave a response in which I mentioned the needs of long term campers, who view camping as a cheaper alternative to living in an apartment.

I’m wondering whether there are in fact campsites that accommodate long term campers who sometimes also take extended time trips away. Specifically, that they hold a spot open while you travel, are able to hold your mail for long time periods of time, they don’t require you to be present to do maintenance (like mowing your lawn), and make it possible for you to list your campsite as your legal address.

I know that there are campsites where you buy a spot, and own it long term. But what about the mail holding and not requiring you to be present?

Greetings!

All the ones I’ve heard of were too far away from civilization to be practical, wanted too much money, and offered no amenities, just a patch of dirt in the weeds, and in addition to rent expected labor on top.

Cheers!
