I’m so disappointed. I just got my 2016 320 S camper a few months ago and had made reservations to go camping May 25 and now Michigan has shut down till at least July. I would like to go to Colorado and Washington state to see my kids and grandkids but not even sure if I can do that because I don’t know what will be open and won’t won’t. The only thing I’ve been wondering is if I could just take my chances and go and stay in Walmart parking lot and Cracker Barrel parking lots till I get to my kids homes. This whole quarantine has got me frustrated. I enjoy your tips And watch all your videos and find them very helpful. I’m taking my camper Monday to a friend who has a business around the corner and he will do you winterize it and go through things with me.
Hi MaryAnn! I can understand how frustrating this must be as a new camper owner. These are crazy times but hang in there... things are slowly getting better. MN is opening State Parks on May 4th and I have heard other states are opening soon also.
Hi Randi, love your videos. Thank you. I have a Q? When you de-winterized. Do you drain first the liquid put into for winter and then finish draining all with the water you put in the beginning in the tank. Please let me know. Thanks
Hey!! Thanks so much for this video. I bought my small camper last Fall from a guy who had already winterized it. I just followed your step by step guide and got through it successfully. 😁👍
I plan on doing that this weekend. With the small amount of antifreeze used, I will flush it down the toilet. Antifreeze is usually toxic to dogs. Have you thought about doing a video about how to glamp up your camp site? I think that would be fun.
Deanne Walding Hi Deanne! Smiles for flushing! I love your glamp up idea!!!! Brilliant! I will definitely be doing this. Any ideas you think I should include?
Hey all - Please be aware that if you have a new Little Guy and are hooked up to shore power, not LP, getting your initial hot water will take 30+ minutes. So, be patient.
Hey Randi!!! Great video!!! I'm so glad you said don't put it on the ground. I'm not a wacky environmentalist, you might think that I am because I live in California, but again don't hold that against me, but I am definitely afraid of antifreeze. When I was a youngster my family had a dog that got into some antifreeze. It crystalized in her blood and digestive tract. It was horrible to watch her die. Ever since I have always been on a kick to dispose of antifreeze, even the RV type, safely and properly. Animals will go after it like candy. So don't put it on the ground. Always put it into a proper dump tank. I'm more afraid of dumping the antifreeze on the ground than I am the black waste. Go figure that one out... Anyway, great how to video for your awesome little trailer. Pat
I agree! De-winterizing doesn’t take long at all. I looked on the All Stays app and found a city campground in WI open so I headed out. That might be an idea for you.
Great explanation Randi. We have our fingers crossed that we will be Full Timing this Summer. Wanna camp in the Badlands in the Fall? :-) I know a place.

My mom really likes you
I’m doing this with my mom and dad
That's awesome!!!!
Thank you!!
You're welcome!
De winterizing brings back those happy feelings!! YAY!! Let’s camp!!
Dreaming Outloud RVing I know, right??? I am sooo excited!
Randi, this is just one of the many things RVers have to do, unless they head south for the winter. You did a good job of explaining the process.
Yes, it’s part of the process especially in MN!

Hi! Always drain all of the water out and then add the anti- freeze. I hope this answers your question!
Hey!! Thanks so much for this video. I bought my small camper last Fall from a guy who had already winterized it. I just followed your step by step guide and got through it successfully. 😁👍
That’s great to hear Candi and big congrats on your purchase… have a great time this summer with your camper!
Thanks to this video we dewinterize our mini max this week with confidence. She is clean, stocked and ready to go. 😊
Woooo Hoooo!!!
I do not have to worry about de winterizing. found it interesting though on the process
Lucky you! Although de-winterizing is an easy process so I don't mind.
@@RandisAdventures That is because you have a great attitude.
The Art of RVing Awe!
Yours has been the best explanation of this
I am so glad to hear that Sabina! Spring is in the air so it won’t be long until we will all be enjoying the summer camping season! 😁
Easy peasy. Great video. Good suggestion too in where to dump the water waste. Keep up the good work
Thanks Diane! I had to get my two cents in about how to dispose of it!
I'll be working at Xtreme Outdoors LLC in Somerset, PA building these campers on January 3rd.
Hey Wil! That’s great news! Xtreme Outdoors makes a quality camper and is a good company so I am excited for you. 😁
For our little camper I use the blow out method via an air compressor. It's simple and don't need to fuss with anti-freeze.
Drive North I have heard there’s an art to doing it that way.
Why do you use the water tank and pump instead of hose pressure?
I plan on doing that this weekend. With the small amount of antifreeze used, I will flush it down the toilet. Antifreeze is usually toxic to dogs. Have you thought about doing a video about how to glamp up your camp site? I think that would be fun.
Deanne Walding Hi Deanne! Smiles for flushing! I love your glamp up idea!!!! Brilliant! I will definitely be doing this. Any ideas you think I should include?
Randi's Adventures I have a few ideas. I can send you some ideas on Instagram.
Fabulous! I will log on later today. Thanks!!!!

Everything RV by Pat Oh my gosh Pat... I can’t imagine such a horrible event. I am so sorry to hear about your dog. 😢
You are the best!
Thank you!!!
9:05am thank you, great video and great easy to follow
Well I don't have a camper yet but I will definitely save this video for when I need it. I see you've got your summer red nails ready for camping.
Hillbillyjeeper WV I love winter camping but during this time of year I am ready for warm weather camping! Will you be Jeep camping this summer?
@@RandisAdventures definitely, still using a ground tent. Dreaming of a camper though.
Hillbillyjeeper WV I just took an old tent out that I used I think once and I plan on doing some Jeep and tent camping this summer!
@@RandisAdventures on nice. That will be fun.
Does the holding tank need to be empty before you start this process?
Yes!
Great JOB I will be sharing, Thanks!
Thank you! 😊
Hi Randi, happy Thursday! Good seeing you again in another great and informative video. Thank you for teaching us. Happy May Day!
cdLady54 _ Hi! Happy May Day to you too! ♥️
Seems a little easier to open up camper than to close it up .... Hopefully the camp grounds are opened soon
I agree! De-winterizing doesn’t take long at all. I looked on the All Stays app and found a city campground in WI open so I headed out. That might be an idea for you.
@@RandisAdventures ... thanks for the tip
What is this for?
luv_nane28 Stopping your RV pipes from freezing when it gets cold outside.
Great explanation Randi. We have our fingers crossed that we will be Full Timing this Summer. Wanna camp in the Badlands in the Fall? :-) I know a place.
This Nomadic Idea Is that SD? That might be a great plan!
