Fodor's Expert Review Shady Dell Trailer Court
1 Douglas Rd., Bisbee, Arizona, 85603, USA Fodor's Choice
For a blast from the past, stay in one of the funky vintage aluminum trailers at this trailer park south of town, where accommodations range from a 1952 10-foot homemade unit to a 1951 33-foot Royal Mansion. The entire collection is decked out in midcentury style, including vintage magazines, books, and vinyl records. Most trailers have small bathrooms, but only a few have private showers; the park restrooms are clean, with hot showers.
PROS
- unique and fun (how many hip vintage trailer-park hotels are there?)
- cheap
- Dot's Diner (on-site) is great for a quick bite
CONS
- no children under 12, except with prior approval
- walking to the public restrooms in the middle of the night (some trailers don't have a toilet; some have toilet but no shower)
- drive into town
