If the temps will only dip just below freezing over night you should be fine. I’d disconnect the hose from the fresh water supply though (if you’re hooking up to city water). Not sure what you have but some rigs have their tank in a heated area (kept warm by the furnace).

::I’d go for a stackable washer dryer if you have the room. I’ve never heard anything good about combo units.
::Do you know the key code? They only make a few different key types for door locks. Once you get it figured out, replace your locks with one of these if possible https://www.rvlock.com/. First thing I did when I got my camper.
::I’ve never tried it but have heard good things about Grandpa Gus’s: https://www.grandpagus.com/products/mouse-repellent-pouches
They are natural and claim to be pet safe, though be aware they have peppermint oil which can be toxic to dogs as I understand it.
::Look into myrvmail.com. It’s a couple hundred bucks a year but worth it and you get a discount if you’re already a Good Sam or Passport America member.
::@ia_camper is exactly right. I would add, even if your state doesn’t require a special license, if this is your first large motorhome, I would recommend taking an RV driving class.
::There are pros and cons with the main pro being they add more space in a cramped environemnt. But they require maintenance and they will eventually have issues that require repair, like getting stuck and leaking. Im sure people will chime in that they’ve never had an issue with slideouts in their XX years of camping, but they are very prone to issues. Ultimately, its whether the potential hassle is worth the extra space.
::Campendium has free campsites on there app. freecampsites.net is another good source. It’s not an app but a helpful website.
::Some campgrounds won’t allow pens set up at the campsite. I tie a leash to the stairs on the camper or a picnic table and just make sure my dog can’t reach another campsite or the road/sidewalk. He always seems happy.
