New from Michigan
Hi all. We just moved up from pop-up to a 2010 Keystone Outback 310BHS. We had been tent campers for 28 years and pop-up for 5 years. What a change this is!
Our boys love the bunkhouse with slide and entertainment center. They frequently have friends over for video games and movies. We've had some very hot and humid weather, so they welcome the retreat to A/C. We limit the amount of time they spend back there so they get lots of time in the pool, riding their bikes, and hiking the trails, building forts, etc.
We had lots of fun organizing all our gear. Once we took the stuff we didn't need home (campstove, dish pans, sleeping bags, etc.), I was amazed at how empty my van was. No longer needed it for short-term storage!
We did make one modification so far: we removed the couch/airbed from the bunkhouse. It was too small as a couch for the crew of boys; DS20 didn't like having to open/close his bed every night/morning; and it took up too much space when open. He had taken to sleeping on the pull-down bunk which was too narrow. We put in a regular twin mattress with a foam mattress on top (extras from home). As a temporary fix, we used the fold-down bunk mattress as a couch back. We just received 2 foam wedge bolsters that we'll use to make a daybed. Just need to throw a waterproof cover over his bed and it's ready for guests to play video games. Plus we can separate the mattresses if we have extra sleepover guests.
