Welcome!
Here's a discussion on Trailer Showroom, basically an online broker for several different manufacturers. Folks here seem to have had an overall good experience with them.
http://tnttt.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=70139Looked at your 7x12 thread, that transition from tent to small toy hauler, without all the fancy kitchen/bath stuff sounds familiar. Real familiar, just like ours. With a screen name that hints "kayaker", well, here's ours for ideas.

Here's one of the Cargo Craft 6x14 offroad trailers:

I imagine they can build the same models in Georgia. Mine is a Cargo Craft as well, fairly happy with them as far as cargo trailers go. Good build for the price, still a family owned business.
-always order the next size up (2' longer) than you need
-consider having windows factory installed and offset for airflow, (credit gonefishin).
-same for a quality 36" RV-style side door
-put the fantastic vent fan into one of the ceiling vents.
I ordered a tandem even though I knew I'd never need the weight capacity. Reasons; "crawl" over bumps vs bounce/jump of single axle, get a flat, and keep going to a safe spot to change it, If I do need to carry heavy, well, I can. Of course doesn't turn as easy, but is more predictable backing up, and runs great on the road heading to the camping spots, not bad on the forest road. I chose standard leaf spring for more ground clearance.
Here's another good discussion on choosing a trailer:

In your case, for stability, 4 stab jacks have worked great for me, combined with some 4 x 6 blocks for certain spots. Also, consider standard spring axles for greater ground clearance for those occasional forest service road trips. Single step welded from factory at RV door, a big plus.
Edit: since you posted you are in the Southeast US, consider finding a local dealer for a brand you like, work a custom order with them, following it through with step-by-step updates/approvals.
East Tennessee area, I like Homesteader. I talked to these folks near Knoxville, TN on behalf of a friend, they seemed pretty knowledgeable on handling a custom Homesteader build.

Several decent brands, I guess the difference being their willingness to customize at reasonable costs, communication via the dealer, and support after the sale, (which is not common in the cargo trailer world).
Best,
