Pop ups are fun and easy to pull. Fun time ahead for you and your family!

I have one just like yours except it doesn't have a/c. I put a full size air mattress in and that made the bunk a lot more comfortable for sleeping. h.h.

I've got one similar to this...bought it for my son and I to use in deer season...ended up using it a LOT. Used to use it during travel baseball and softball. Didn't have AC but had an AWESOME little furnace...

I'm looking to upgrade my pop up this year? I like this one you have for sure. Mine is an older Coleman. The mice kill me in the winter time though. Dryer sheets spread out all over helped a little. Nice rig.

Thanks guys.....the one i purchase was a used a 2015 Rockwood.......it was in perfect shape! The campground we are @ now is a little loud and buzy with the holiday weekend! But turn the fan/AC on and the tv.....roll into a queen bed.......I hear no outside noise and sleep like a rock cool Never really camped but digging this for some adventures smile

I spent many a holiday weekend there at the old primitive campground, back when it cost $2.00 a day. It use to get pretty wild on the 4th.

One last suggestion, spray your canvas top with weather proofing every year and Armor-all on the vinyl. h.h.

I have a small older Starcraft nice little camper no a/c and hard to keep warm when it's cold. Wonder if one of them stand up portable air units would work

Take mothballs and tie 4-5 or so in small cheese cloth bags, spread them out around inside cabinets and cubbie holes. I you dont like the smell they make pine scent too. Keeps out mice, spiders and other small critters. h.h.

For the guys without a heater on board, here is an option.

I bought an Olympian Wave heater. Runs on propane tank, and safe for inside the camper.

Warmed up the camper enough to make it bearable at elk camp with lows in lower 30's

Looks like a nice rig and you are putting it to the test. Don't get the bug too bad or you'll keep upgrading. We went from a tent, to a pop-up (which I bought from Bean), to now a 29 ft travel trailer.
