I’ve got a good friend that owns a picturesque farmstead on the Palouse a couple miles north of Genesee, ID (35 minute drive to Wazzu). 10-20 acres in size, she raises a couple horses, has an outdoor arena and 3 separate pastures. She’s pondering setting an area up to handle 4 – 6 RVs, and taking part of 1 of her pastures to do that. She’s unsure which market to set it up for, so thought I’d throw this out here and see what kind of feedback I can gather for her from those of you here that actively use RVs.
One option is to set the area up for dry camping (no utilities) and rent space to folks that come in for a couple days at a time (horse people or Wazzu // U of I football fans), a second option is to set it up for dry camping and RV storage, a third would be to add utilities and set it up for seasonal use (football season or summer/fall getaway for horse people), and a fourth would be to add utilities and set it up for long term space rental (catering to construction workers, etc...). Which market she chooses to chase would dictate which pasture she’d steal space from, as well as her $$ investment to set it up. Thoughts?
