Steve, First, check with the town and make sure they will let you put a trailer on the property. Second, you might be able to buy a used MOBILE home and have it moved to the site for the same or less money. This would probably give you twice the square footage and have better insulation in it than the TT.

I've been out of the camping scene for a while. We just bought some acreage in upstate NY and we're going to put an RV of some kind on it for a few years to save up a little and then put a log home or something like that on. Next year we'll have a well, septic, and electric put in.
Anyhow, we're currently looking at a 2002 34' Holiday Rambler Alumascape travel trailer. Two slides. The unit appears to be in excellent condition. Holiday used to be a very good brand but I don't know anymore.
The salesman said that it's unclosed and heated underneath and also has "better" insulation, in the walls and floors, which would be very good as a few friends and I will be using it in deer season which can get quite cold. I'm not thinking of using the black water tank, we'll make other arraignments for that this year but I was thinking of using the holding tank for cooking, dishes, a couple of showers, etc and just leaving the valve open and draining it into a drywell. Obviously we'd leave the heat on all the while until the end of the season and then drain all lines, etc.
Anyhow, they want $19K for the unit which you can look at here if you'd like: http://www.picturetrail.com/gallery/view?p=999&gid=12991927&uid=596157
Any opinions on it's intended use and/or price would be appreciated.
