Tows up to 3,500 lbs. when properly equipped (don't know if you're properly equipped)

Looks like the trailer will weigh around 2,800# empty so when loaded you'd be pushing 3,300-3,500#. Once you put people and gear in you vehicle probably won't have much capacity left for the hitch weight.
Without specifics that's a guess. Look at the drivers door frame for a sticker which will tell you the GVWR of your vehicle, then weight it with family and fuel loaded. What's left is for the trailers hitch. Hitch weight is 10-15% of trailer so a 3,000# trailer is around 450#.
