Default off topic- dishwasher freezing

We shut off the heat + winterize our camp, but we also use it occasionally in winter (sometimes with large groups).

I'm in the market for a new dishwasher and prefer one that can withstand freezing in winter without winterizing the drain. Currently, we briefly turn on the rinse-hold cycle after shutting off the water to purge the supply line, but we don't pour antifreeze in the drain. The dishwasher never worked very well, so I dont know if freezing had any affect.

I'd like to avoid using antifreeze- and doing a rinse-hold before each use during the winter.

Any ideas?
