Enough 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!

Thanks 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

We 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

Love 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

My 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

We just "inherited" a 1978 Coleman Pop-Up and have left the
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
informative it was. Our dog (Chesapeake Bay Retriever)camps with us and
she loves it. Great site and thanks for the info!

Wow, 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

I 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.

Very 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

Thanks 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

I 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!

take all of your knowledge of popup and put it on the web. I have got

I 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!!

I wanted to thank you for the mention on your site (and the pictures)
of the trailer dolly. I followed your link and my final price for this
item was $71 (tax and shipping included). I originally found this item in
my Overtons boating catalog for a total price of $176 for the exact same
item. Thanks again!

I have been trying to find a back rack that would not put penetrations
in my pop-up roof. I could not find one so I contrived to design and build
my own. Fortunately I bumped into your website. The swagman towable 3 bike
carrier that you installed is my dream come true. I followed your link and
got the best deal on the internet. I am patiently waiting for it to
arrive. Thanks for the tip,

We are planning our first Disney camping trip and I found your website
to be a great source of insider information. I like to hear about actual
experiences because you always learn something new and get other opinions.
Thanks for the info, I will continue to plan with the help of your site.
Great Job!
