RV vs Cottage...
A cottage keeps you in one place and limits your exploring.
An RV is a cottage on wheels. You get to sleep in your own bed every night, but in a different location.
I grew up going to the cottage. Nice, but I missed going to other beautiful places, because we always went to the cottage.
When we got married we tent camped and loved it. Explored two provinces that way. Then 7 years ago we bought used class c RV. I love it. I drive it far more than DH. I do not take a sewing machine, but do take crochet and cross stitch projects.
