New to this forum! We are looking for a 5th wheel that is warm/has a winter package to live in with our 18 mo old and new baby. We would like a separate bunkroom with a door for our toddler. Any ideas? We will be living in this full time. Any older models? Thanks!
Spacecraft has pretty incredible insulation and builds bunkhouses.
We have an Open Range bunkhouse. We love the unit.We use a couple of space heaters to cut down the furnace use.
We ordered ours with dual pane windows. It stays pretty cozy.

Welcome to the Escapee forums! We could likely be of more help if we knew a little bit of your plans. If you are new to the RV world, I strongly suggest that you start by spending time at the largest RV show that you can find and take the time to look at pretty much everything. I would also consider joining the RV Consumer Group to take advantage of the educational materials that they supply to new members. I think that you may also find both Xscapers and Escapees websites & membership to be helpful to you.
Thanks so much for your help everyone! We just got back from a rv show last night and learned a lot there too.
We traveled in an Open Range, and we were quite pleased with it. Dual pane windows, decent insulation, enclosed/heated underbelly, etc. all included in the "four seasons" package. They make a nice 5th wheel bunkhouse.
We're currently in a new Sanpiper. Rebh371. Awesome floor plan. We have a 2yr old and her bedroom stays toasty. We did do the polar package and so far so good, but I don't believe I would do an up north winter with out some serious prep. Were currently in NC and our coldest night has been about 28. It stayed comfy but we are using a lot of propane All Ready.
What area of the country are you planning to winter?
