Ah but you still have water in your sink/tub/toilet drain traps. Our 'vacation spot' is a travel trailer. When we 'winterize' it, we disconnect water input, open all faucets, flush the toilet and then use an air compressor to blow any remaining water out of the fresh water lines. After that is done we add RV antifreeze to all sink traps and the toilet. Oops - almost forgot - also drain the water heater. Considering Wisconsin can get sub-zero temps the above method has worked well for us.
