I apologize in advance for all the questions,this is my first camper and I've got a lot to learn!
I just bought a 06 Springdale 189. Is it ok to keep a camper plugged into shore power all of the time to keep the battery charged? What are the pros and cons of keeping it plugged in? Im assuming that all campers have a built in battery charger that will keep the battery ready to go,any chance it will over charge the battery? Does the onboard battery charger automatically go into a maintenance mode when battery is fully charged? Am I better off keeping it on a battery tender type of battery maintainer vs the onboard charging system? THX

Yes, you can leave it plugged in. You should check the battery(s) at least monthly, and add DISTILLED water if needed. If ongoing experience shows that a monthly check is too often, do it quarterly.
While you are checking electrolyte levels, also look at the battery terminals. Inspect for corrosion and loose connectors. Clean and tighten as needed. This inspection, IMO, should be done at least twice a year.
