A bit of RV antifreeze down the traps when we leave solves the freezing problem. Keep the wood fire going, lots of blankets on hand, and a big bottle of scotch handy for medicinal reasons...it doesn't get much better than winter out on the island.

In addition to lots of blankets on hand, we have found that an electric mattress pad heater can make a cold bed a bit more civilized for our early spring or late fall nights at camp.
