In an RV it was the low twenties. I did that just to see how it held up.
Cold weather camping is another story. A buddy & I would teach older scouts how to survive a two night campout in Rice Lake Wisconsin during the first week of February. We did that for ten years. No camp fires allowed. They built quinzhee huts to sleep in. If no snow we had tents & tarps. White gas stoves for cooking.
The coldest “official” temperature for one campout was -32F because that was as low as the base camp thermometer would go. It was a great time to camp in Wisconsin, no bears, no bugs.
