How is the insulation in the unit, we travel in the winter and have hit lows of 10 degrees.

The Casita doesn't have a high R value insulation-wise; the carpet on the walls helps some. The inside space is small enough to make them easy to heat and cool, though. And they are tight... not much air leaks in or out until you open a window, vent or door. Camping down to 25 degrees, perhaps 20, might work. Down to 10? I wouldn't want to, personally. You'll get a lot of condensation dripping off the windows, and the water system would need to be winterized.
