    Curtains Need Replacing

    We made these ourselves only because we wanted some color. You can buy the strips with the sliders on Amazon: RV Designer A115, Clear Glide Tape #9, 1/2 inch Glides, 72 inches, Window Covering Hardware https://a.co/d/g3ThIfi They are not lined. Just have to be very precise about copying the...

    Traveling in rain-Water inside cabin

    We’ve had non-stop issues as it is impossible to travel around in upstate NY without rain (especially this year). But after 2.5 years of trying things, I think I have it under control, finally. As Cary indicates above, the lovely teardrop shape of our trailers maybe acts as an airplane wing...

    Non camp-inn mattress

    We tried a 6” Milliard trifold mattress (Amazon) and found it to be too thick. Not just in the foot well but also it sticks out above the green skirts by the doors so bedding easily spills out. Went with the 4” Millard and like it very much. I did open it up, cut off a 2 inches to make it fit...

    Has anyone added an Ark tongue jack?

    I mounted the ARK350 on my trailer. Elsewhere on the forum there is a post using angle iron pieces. I simplified by making a mounting plate with holes matching the frame holes and holes matching the jack. See pict. I like it and I dont. It rolls a lot better over gravel and dirt which is a big...

    Mattress Options For A Softer Mattress

    We have the 4” Milliard trifold mattress as well and slept on it for about 10 days now. It sleeps remarkably well for only 4” thick. As mentioned, it fits tightly so we cut off about an 1”-1.5” of the width. There is another fabric cover underneath the outer cover that zips off. It’s more like...

    #889 Is Now In Rochester Ny

    Wegmans is still the king of grocery stores around here. Really good but they know it and their prices are sky-high. Will check out the Country Sweet Wings this week. We’ve tent-camped in the Olympic NP twice but would love to see more of Washington State. looks beautiful.

    Side Table Storage - No More Scuffing Of The Steel Walls

    So somewhere between 899 and 1099 this must have been added. Or the bumpers in ours fell off during the previous ownership. So much fun to talk about the simple things of Campinn life!

    Side Table Storage - No More Scuffing Of The Steel Walls

    When we got our trailer, the stainless steel around the stove was scuffed and scratched from movement of the side table when stored on a cooler or crate. Others may have this issue too. My solution is simple: add 2 rubber bumper pads on one side of the table, and drill an extra hole in the...

    #889 Is Now In Rochester Ny

    The NY State Parks are very easy in general and certainly with a Campinn. But we generally try to stay away from the big RV rigs so we dont do spots w hookups. We hate the generators that run all day for the rest of the campground to “enjoy” while the owners are away. But that’s a general...

    Table extension holder

    Here is a picture of the spacers I made. I used a hole saw to cut the discs. Plus they have a nice hole in the center so the screw doesn’t split them. Magnets are from Amazon

    Diy “amco” Paper Towel Holder

    Sure will. I forgot to add that some was selling an Amco one for $55 last year. That really got me going. Just had to beat that.

    Front Handles

    We were not impressed by the Nucamp Tag trailer, but it did have very nice handles in the front to move it around. After having to maneuver our 550 on a campsite by hand a few times, I got motivated. Bought the stainless handles on Amazon. 2Pcs 9 Inch Boat Grab Bar, Stainless Steel Boat...

    Diy “amco” Paper Towel Holder

    Hello, Newby here. I decided to contribute to the many paper towel holder discussions on the forum. I got to understand how such a simple topic got so much attention. We lived with a bungied roll for a while. Or it floated around the trailer. I searched everywhere for that Amco holder, but that...

    #889 Is Now In Rochester Ny

    Hello, We bought this 2017 550 from Susan and Steve in Vermont in April last year. Very happy with it. Love the look and the build quality. Best of all, no more taking down the tent and setting up the kitchen! It attracts a lot of attention around here. We’ve taken it on 14 weekend trips last...
