Winter RVing Mods and Tips
Winter RVing Gives You the Place to Yourself! |
Two great things about RVing in winter: you get to use your investment year-round, and there aren't many crowds because most people haven't figured out how to do it comfortably. To the left is a ski trip we took to Keystone and Breckenridge in January, and below is a sunset on Baltimore Harbor also in January. We got a great deal on the Baltimore site because the park was almost empty, and picked a place right on the water! Although we did leave a day early because a big snowstorm was moving in.
Living in Colorado, not being able to use the RV below freezing would limit us to about 3 months of use each year...clearly no fun. So I went searching for some simple modifications and tips that would let me be relatively comfortable in it down to about 0F. This is a little bit complicated because I didn't get an arctic package when I bought it...but we went down to single digits on our first trip and did ok, so I'm sure it's fixable. This page will list the mods I made, the behaviors we changed (like using a 5-gallon water container with a spigot at the sink instead of the freshwater system), and anything else I find useful for winter RVing. Email me with any tips and tricks you've found useful, tweaks to what I've done here, etc.! |
