We also utilize several area rugs to cover the floor area and keep from having to wear shoes to the bathroom in the middle of the night. It also helps with insulation. I use smallish ones that can be thrown in the washer/dryer or hung and dried.
We camp in late fall in the mountains and we sometimes get snow, it will get well into the teens at night with daytime temps anywhere from 30's up to the 60s. It's my favorite time to camp. I use cuddle-duds under my regular clothes, a couple pair of socks (daytime only, can't stand them at night) and a boggan on my head. We keep a campfire or a propane fire going pretty much the entire time we are outside. We usually camp with friends and do weeks at a time.
We have a tiny dehumidifier that we sit on our kitchen island and let it drain into the sink. We have an electric fireplace that is set on 70 and the furnace is set on 60. According to how cold it gets, sometimes the furnace comes on constantly and sometimes it rarely comes on. With the interior at 60, the underbelly is in the mid-40's unless there is a very stiff wind blowing. (Have a thermometer to measure it). The water is cold, but not frozen.
Like this one.
We do NOT boondock, but we have power and water at our sites. We unhook the hose from the water supply before we head in for the night. We keep a minimal amount in the fresh water tank to flush with at night.
