Sorry to hear about the trip. I also enjoy friends and family coming along and makes for funner trips. I find 2 additional campers is about the max I want coming with us. Tried it with 5 once and just too many different people to get on the same page. Also only let Brother and his fiance stay in our camper. Let another couple stay once and although they did nothing wrong at all, I felt I had to act a little different inside the camper and thats not why I bought it. So if its someone i can completely relax around, they aint staying in my camper!
