Travel Trailer Winter Cover

Alright, I know we are headed into the spring and summer camping season, however, I was interested in any recommendations on the best travel trailer winter cover. See I figure they may be less expensive during the summer months than waiting until this fall to buy one, or risk them being out of stock.

I truly wish I had some indoor cover for my travel trailer, but I don't, so need the best recommendations for the outside covers.

Needing to cover my 28RLSWE Cougar, which is listed as 30.6 feet. I have A/C and the Camco added vent covers. When you order the winter cover do they factor in the A/C and raised vent covers?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

We have used the ADCO SFS cover for the past 2 years and absolutely love it. Has held up in heavy rain, wind, etc. and has kept our trailer looking new with no damage from cover rubbing.

Unless you order a custom made cover, I am not aware of any covers that factor in A/C's or other raised vent covers such as Fantastic Fan/Maxxair.
On ours, the entire roof portion of the cover is "flat" and we have a single A/C and two raised vent covers which have not presented any problems. The cover is a bit more taut in these areas but otherwise it fits fine.

We are on the second trailer, and had semi-custom covers made by Calmark for each one. They are made in the USA from Sunbrella brand woven fabric (which was originally engineered to make marine boat tops and covers and is also made in the USA). They fit perfectly, and the fabric holds up great. My recommendation, no matter what company's product you choose, is to make sure it is made from Sunbrella fabric.

Neither of our covers had specific "pockets" or anything like that to fit over the A/C and vent covers, but they allow enough extra fabric to fit over all the stuff on the roof. Actually, the stuff on the roof tents the cover up over the roof, and helps water run off better.

Thank you to all who have provided some comments. It does make sense as stated the A/C and vent covers would likely help with water run-off. I will also look at the material as mentioned by Cathcartww, thanks again.
