In Atlanta? I wouldn't think there is much of a winter.
We lived in Maryland. We waited until the first long hard freeze to winterize - as early as November or as late as January. We kept the tanks and water lines dry and put antifreeze in the traps. Our first season, we winterized/dewinterized four times(antifreeze in the entire system). It got old quick. But on those trips, we took drinking water in jugs.
Yes it does get cold in Atlanta....
Where are you going to camp? Will you have hookups and will they have a bath house? If so, just leave it winterized. Get a spot near the bath house. Don't use the toilet, shower or any plumbing in your unit. That way, you don't need to dewinterize and rewinterize. We did this a couple years go when we had the travel trailer we used to have stored at Myrtle Beach. Just left it winterized and picked a spot several spots from a bath house. Worked out great.
