The DW and I took this past weekend at a nearby WI state park (Perrot near Trempeleau). We had the campground to ourselves Friday evening and one other camper on Saturday. Lows around freezing but we kept ourselves comfortable without using a lot of propane. Small ceramic electric heater helped as long as we kept it on low, hi blew the outlet circuit breaker. We aimed for about 60 degrees F while awake and 50 while sleeping. Having been tent and PUP campers, we are used to being on the cool side. The bed sure was toasty though. Sunday was beautiful, especially the afternoon.
We were glad to get the experience with the unit and feel confirmed that the floor plan is the right one for us.
See photos.

Sounds like you had a great time. Our first time out this year we woke up to snow on the ground. Mama likes it warm so we used plenty of propane.

Our 1st trip two weeks ago was all rain and mud and rain and more mud. We still had a good time but the weather could have been a little better.

Can you recommend any particular sites in the campground? We live an hour west of you near Rochester, MN, and we have a rig about your size. Its always nice to get recommendations from other people on specific sites within a park that might be better suited for rigs like our's.
