Cold weather condensation in tough spot...
Well this is our first season in the 5th wheel in freezing temperatures and it has been fun, but a bit challenging. Already had the 10' poop-cycle, freezing water lines, frozen fridge and all the joy...

You'll need to raise the mattress so it gets some ventilation on the cold surface. Keep the mattress away from the wall or add a thermal break from the wall to the mattress (a piece of 1/4" foam sheet comes to mind).
If it was me, I'd make a new mattress platform with 3/4" space between the new platform and the existing platform. In between the 3/4" ledgers that support the new platform, I'd install 1/2" extruded foam board with foil backing. The 1/4" difference will allow for an airspace so that there is ventilation to the original platform, averting rot, hopefully.
