We had a great time and the trailer had everything we needed. It performed well and was very nice to have in cold weather. While the aluminum is cold to the touch the propex heating kept us warm when a few nights hit the 20's. We had no problems and were always warm and comfortable.

Great camper and excellent host!

Squatchy was perfect for a hiking/camping trip in southeastern Utah (Bear Ears National Monument and Moab). Squatchy was the five-star fireside condo for the two members of the oldest generation on a three-generation experience. It was the perfect way for oldsters, who have had enough of sleeping on slickrock, to stay engaged with the youngsters and fun around the campfire.
