attached screen room
does anyone have experience with canopy attached screen rooms?

They *really* add (private) living space to your camper. We didn't set ours up on the PUP unless we were staying at least 3 days.
We have one for our HTT now, but are holding up installing it (have to add mounts to camper walls) until we mod to a longer awning.
We use a Guide Series (Gander Mountain brand) quick popup shelter/screen room, which we now use just about all the time. The fabric is aluminized (silver) on the inside, which really helps reflect the brutal sun.
We put in 2 small plastic folding tables, keep storage containers under the tables, and run an extension cord from the 20a plug on the pedestal to provide separate power to the room.
We use the toaster in the room and have even cooked with the electric skillet in there when it was raining. We added a new (larger) awning mat to our camper this year and moved the old one to the screen room.
If you run a small fan in there, it helps keep the bugs at bay.
It also has 3 solid panels you can roll up or down for privacy, which is something the attached rooms will mostly do, too.
Bottom line: They are very nice and convenient to use- if you have the patience to setup and tear down ;)
