The Shady Dell trailer court may have been one of the best kept secret among Bisbee residents and frequent visitors, but the secret is now out.

The vintage trailer court is the subject of a stunning new photo gallery and article produced by The Associated Press and featured on DailyMail.com, called "Trailer-cachet: Luxury vintage Airstreams are turned into trendy hotel rooms at retro 1950s-themed court."

What started as a layover spot for long-distance travelers has now become a destination for "vintage enthusiasts" or people just looking for a different kind of vacation, the article says.

All of the vintage trailers have been turned into private guest rooms, complete with "period-correct furnishings" and an outdoor courtyard features classic films every night, giving the feeling of a drive-in movie theater, according to the article.

Check out the full article here and plan your next vacation a little closer to home.
