Campers/RV's as short term rentals

[Jasmine Morris]

Hello everyone! I found a potential deal. It consists of two side-by-side campers on lot by a lake (full views, but access is further away) with a fire pit and outdoor space. It seems like a great option for an Airbnb rental and it is about an hour from where I live. Both campers have built-on decks. Do any of you have experience with using campers or RV's as short term rentals? I have never owned a camper and wonder where my blind spots could be.  For those of you who have owned campers/RV's and used them as rentals, what are some things I should know about renting them out? Also, what are basic things I should know about owning and maintaining a camper?

 I do not have any experience with this. Pretty small niche. Maye search on Youtube. That is always my go to site for when I want to learn something.
