Very nice!

I was at Koocanusa last week. It's an awesome lake.

As for the trailer, is it new? Is the lot fully serviced? Are you going to build a deck for it? Is there "neighbors" close by or do you have your own space?

I think the best advice is just get it on the pad, spend a good stretch of time in it, and you will realize what you may need or want beyond what it already provides. Getting a cover for it is really good advice too, as it will help prevent issues down the road.

I've never owned a 5th wheel but we have been debating selling the motor home and getting a truck and trailer ourselves.
