Over the years, we've been on the receiving end of some outstanding destination trailers - mobile homes that allow us to bring a piece of home on the road wherever we travel. Yet, few have impressed as much as the Cottage Destination Trailer 40CDL 2023 by Forest River RV.
As we stepped into the 40 feet and 6 inches length trailer, we were met with a unique blend of coziness and advanced technical features. It's unsurprising that Forest River RV managed such a feat given the superior reputation they've managed to build over the years. The exterior bears a rustic charm while offering excellent durability with its Dexter heavy-duty axles paired with 50 Amp Service.
The 2023 trailer maintains an inviting ambiance that is truly next-level. Stepping into the patio door, you are treated to a lavish internal living space that screams comfort and tasteful aesthetics. Complete with a 36-inch Fireplace and home theater system that can be controlled from your smart phone, the living room section of this magnificent trailer will make you forget you’re even in a mobile home.
The kitchen area is nothing short of a culinary haven - a place where you can cook up your family’s favorite meals while on the road. From a stainless-steel 30” over-the-range microwave to a create-a-breeze fantastic fan with a thermostat and rain sensor, every feature has been incorporated for your convenience.
The Cottage 40CDL isn’t just about communal spaces, though. The trailer features a cozy bedroom complete with satellite and cable hook-ups, bedside ventilation windows and a solid wooden dresser top, offering a comfortable sleeping atmosphere. There’s even a well-stocked bathroom, which although it does not sound luxurious, the one-piece, 48" x 30" fiberglass shower, complimented by an 18" tall porcelain toilet guarantees a refreshing morning routine.
What noticeably distinguishes the Trailer 40CDL 2023 from the rest is not just its top-of-the-line features and luxurious living conditions. It’s the safety, health and convenience precautions taken. Smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, 12V battery disconnects and a climate control system with dual zone heating and cooling are all included to ensure your safety and comfort during your travels.
Buying a destination trailer is always a significant investment, and one must fully understand what they are getting into. At a standard invoice cost of $58322, the Cottage Destination Trailer 40CDL 2023 offers bang for your bucks wrapped in an attractive package of comfort, space, and high-level functionality. When you purchase this destination trailer, you're not only purchasing a product, you're investing in a lifestyle - and quite frankly, it seems to be an investment worth every penny.

The See Dealer Cost Story
When our family wanted to purchase our first boat we tried to find information for research. However the only information available at that time was sales brochures. All of the product information originated from the manufactures. The only price we could find was the retail price listings or MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price). Magazines featured articles, and had really great photo layouts, it only offered product description and the (MSRP) retail price.
We went to the dealership where the sales guy held all the cards. The best thing he had going for him was our lack of information. We tried to wrangle on price without any real success. We bought the boat, but we paid too much. After that experience we felt there had to be a better way.
So we started this website because we did not want anyone else to feel disadvantaged like our family did that day. We discussed what we would like to see. We found experts in their fields and started asking questions. We then put together a team to research products and most importantly the dealer price. We started with boats and realized that there was a great need for information on many kinds of large purchase recreational vehicles and products.
Look when you visit a dealership for a boat, motorcycle or camper, if you have not done your research your negotiation for that item will start with the Manufactures Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The highest price you could pay. The sales person will try to see what you know and size you up. If you do not have product knowledge including what the cost was to the dealer – you are going to pay too much.
See Dealer Cost™ offers product information that is in-depth and understandable. You can build your ideal product on line and see what it cost before you walk into a dealership. See Dealer Cost™ gives you the product options and most importantly the cost without the pressure of someone trying to talk you into something.
Knowledge is power.
After you find the product you want on See Dealer Cost™ and configure the options. You can save it to view or reference later. You can also print out what you put together (with the price). In turn you can use this information to negotiate your best deal.
What if the item is used? We are making available all the information we have gathered over the years so you can research to see the original cost. Even on used items you can use our site to negotiate your best deal.
Our passion here at See Dealer Cost™ is to give people power and knowledge. We were at a disadvantage once and we did not like the feeling.
By the way this great idea we had to build a website with this information. We had to fight to be able to bring this information to you. See Dealer Cost™ was supposed to be a one hit wonder. The manufactures magazines that they send to dealers said we would be dead in no time. They pounded their fists on their desks and said the consumer did not want or need this information. They said we would put them out of business. We were sued multiple times by manufacturers for this information. We are still here.
Why would they not want you to be able to see and use this information? They were afraid that you the consumer would be the true winner.
As it turns out – this information has not put anyone out of business. A consumer who is knowledgeable is confident buyer.
So we continue on with our team of experienced and expert people. We constantly update product lines and most importantly the cost so you have information to make your best deal.
We are proud of the team and proud to be able to assist you in your recreational purchase. We do not sell any of the items listed – we just gather the information.
The products include thousands of boats, motors, campers, motorcycles and more. We are constantly working to expand the information we present for you.
We all have families. We hope your buying experience is a better one than our family’s first purchase. Use this website to be a knowledgeable more confident buyer.
We hope we are a valuable resource for you. Enjoy your purchase.
Thanks,
