Jeff Tamarkin of Allmusic rated the album 3 out of 5 stars, praising the band's sound and concluding, "Although the Lost Trailers veer at times (though not often enough for it to be a problem) toward cliché lyrically, and bar-band generics in their song structures, there's no mistaking the honesty inherent in this music."[2] Dan McIntosh of Country Standard Time gave a mixed review, noting the band's rock influences but criticizing the song choices by saying, "The Lost Trailers are a little bit like the dwelling places they're named after: they're functional for travel or as a temporary residences, but most listeners will not want to live in 'em."[3]
