I know this is an older post, but I figured I’d chime in anyway in case it’s still helpful. We’ve got a small cottage up in the mountains, and I was in the same boat a while back, looking for security cameras. I ended up going with a couple that I can check remotely through an iPhone app. We’re only there a few times a year, so it’s been awesome to just check in whenever.
I came across this page about
wireless security cameras and it helped me sort through features without spending too much. As long as your WiFi is solid, it’s pretty easy to set up and manage remotely.
