  • We have a Carefree screen room that attaches to the RV and the awning. We use to use it a lot but we don't use it in Florida at all so we are selling it.
    We stay at a place that has brick pavers so there is no place to stake it to the ground.
    We never found where it hurt us to have it attached during bad weather, it did the opposite in that it held the awning nicely in place.
    I don't know many places that now allow the unattached screen rooms.

  • Come to Yuma AZ. NO BUGS. You won't need screens.

    They kill the grass & it may take years for it to grow back. Campers that follow in the screen roomed lot will have a mud hole where it was.
  • Gander Mt makes good quality screen rooms. We also have one 10X10' from WalMart that also comes with the wind curtains. Few I've seen are larger.

    Just be sure your park allows it, many don't.

    I saw a lot of real disappointed RV'ers last year after they pulled in and set up and THEN found out they couldn't put up their screen room.
  • You can find them at just about any store, from HD, Lowe's, Target, etc.
    They will vary in price, and with regard to how much you would need to do to put it up.
    We have one out in our backyard, and it's up year round.....I don't think I paid more than $100 for it, though it's only 10'x10', which may be a bit small by your standards.

    You may want to check into one of the screen rooms that attach to your awning, but you need to be able to bring the awning in/out, depending on weather, and that may make it difficult.

    Good Luck:)
