 CommentsEnough cannot be said about your website.....it's one of the most
      helpful sites I have found. Thank you. As a new pop up convert, the
      information you have on your site is beyond words. The wife and I have
      been campers for years, starting with tenting and gradually moving up to
      our camper van we built in 1990. After many trips all over the country we
      decided to try pop ups and purchased a 94 Coleman Sequoia. We like it very
      much, but are still new to it, having used it only twice. As I think about
      winterizing the pop up, I am already thinking about camping down Cape Cod
      next summer....can't wait. And thanks again for the site...it's wonderful.
      Thanks again!

 CommentsThanks for the trailer dolly tip- I just ordered one from the site you
      recommended, after looking all over and not finding a better price. My
      driveway is very narrow, the road in front of the house is very narrow,
      and maneuvering the trailer into the drive is extremely frustrating. From
      now on I unhook on the street and roll it on in! I've also gotten the
      power cord conversion kit, but have not installed it yet. My popup (1994
      Coleman Roanoke) is one of the tiniest ones you've ever seen, so every
      inch of reclaimed storage space is welcome. Say hello to Natasha from
      Atticus (Pointer/Beagle mix, or one of the only Chesapeake Bay Poingles)
      since he came from the Annapolis SPCA too! Carolyn 1994 Coleman Roanoke

 CommentsWe have just purchased our first pop-up, been tent camping since scouts
      a life-time ago! As this is our first camper, and we purchased a (lightly)
      used 1998 Westlake, we did not get the "training" that would
      (hopefully!) have come with purchasing new, although the gentleman we
      bought it from was nice... Your site is the most informative, straight
      forward, resource for all the little details that I have found on the
      entire www! Thank you, I have you bookmarked for life! Bill

 CommentsLove your site! Say hello to Natasha! I'll be adding an outside shower
      next Spring, although I just saw a new product you should check out:
      "Hot Water On Demand" by Coleman. It's a portable hot water
      system heated by Propane. It's awesome! Just search "Hot Water On
      Demand Coleman" in your search engine, and then search the same on
      the Coleman site. Thanks, Campygurl. 2002 Palomino Yearling RL

 CommentsMy husband and I are looking for a good used pop-up, has to have a
      cassette potti since my husband and I are both up in age, sixty plus
      years. Your site has been very helpfull and I enjoyed reading all what you
      have done with your camper. We had a pop-up for years while our three
      children were growing up and we enjoyed the camping experience. For the
      last 13 years we have stayed in motels and we also own two timeshares that
      we have thoroughly enjoyed. Since I will be joining my husband into
      Retirement we would like to go a little more. I would like to get what I
      call a tag-a-long and my husband wants another pop-up. I would like a
      tag-a-long because the convenience of the bathroom at night, setting up
      and being able to leave everything inside the camper. My husband wants a
      pop-up for the ease of pulling. I use to pull our pop-up all the time,
      don't think I would like to pull the tag-a-long. Thanks again for putting
      this site on the web. It is going to be a big help. dbailey

      tents behind. One of my cables broke and I was looking for info on how to
      replace them(still looking.) and came across your site and saw how

 CommentsWow, what an awesome site you have! I just aquired my very first popup
      camper yesterday (July 16, 2003). It looks like it will take me quite a
      while to look through your site, I am looking forward to it. Natasha is
      beautiful!! I have had shepherds most of my life. I am now the proud mommy
      of a furbaby named Rosco. I adopted him from the Michigan Humane Society
      and he's the best dog I ever had. Poor baby does have epilepsy, but he
      more than makes up for that in what a great dog he is. We wouldn't go
      anywhere without him! Karen http://www.geocities.com/roscosjournal

 CommentsI found your site early (fortunately!) in our search for pop-up camper,
      about 3 months ago. We bought a 2000 Coleman Timberlake about a month ago,
      and love it. Your site is by far the most usefull and informative site on
      pop-up camping on the net. Thank you so much for the time and effort
      you've put into this site.

 CommentsVery nice site, lots of ideas.We also have a 2001 Sants Fe and love it,
      problem is we bought it at the end of the model year, so it sat until
      Memorial Day weekend, we did a dry run at the inlaws place. Bad luck hit
      in june, I ruptured a disc and had to have back surgery. We did get to
      take it for a close trip in late Sept. Looking forward to doing some
      camping this year (in the process of builing our house) things are hectic
      around here. Jim

 CommentsThanks for your web site. I also have a Coleman pop up camper.
      Frequently, I will get to the campsite before my family and set things up.
      I often have trouble with the awning as setting the awning up is awkward
      by yourself. Thanks very much for your tip on the awning base. I think
      that will help dramatically

 CommentsI stumbled across your site this morning and I was amazed! We have a
      lot in common! My wife and I and our 5 year old German Shepherd Dog
      "Heidi" are long time tent campers. Now that we are in our 40's,
      we decided that tent camping is just too much work so last week we
      purchased our first pop-up, a 2003 Coachman clipper 086. We were amazed at
      the wealth of pop-up info your site provides not to mention your love of
      German Shepherds! Thank you for providing such a great site!

 CommentsI am hopefully about to become a pop-up trailer owner. I am going
      tomorrow to inspect a camper that someone is giving away! I was surfing
      the internet for information on pop-up camping and came across Natasha's
      site. I've only looked at a few pages, but wanted to let you know that
      they have already been very helpful. As a matter of fact, one of our
      favorite destination is Townsend, Tennessee, so I was pleased to see your
      report on the Little River Village Campground. We usually stay at the Best
      Western up the road a bit, but now, I can look forward to being a little
      closer to nature. We have done quite a bit of tent camping, mostly in the
      Florida and Georgia State Parks. I am very excited about moving up and am
      thankful to have sites like yours to provide insights into pop-up camping.
      Yopp!!
