Hi Fellow Casitains... ???  Well.. You know.
I am looking for a good cover for our 17' Casita.. That doesn't break the bank. Anyone have a good place to look?
Thanks in advance.

We opted for the Calmark cover for the winters here in Wisconsin.  We have used it for 3 years and it still looks like new.  I would buy it again, without hesitation.  I bought it direct from the company and they will custom make it for your particular needs.  We informed the owner that we had roof air, Maxx-Air vent cover, and awning.  Cover fits like a glove and does not mark up the Casita even with heavy snow and high winds.  It also has a zippered door for easy access when the cover is on.

I also have a CalMark cover.  The Sunbrella material holds up well; however, I had a problem with it wearing out prematurely and they rebuilt the cover at no charge.   I have used Sunbrella as a boat cover for over twenty years and it's still good.   We used Goop to glue the seams when the stitching gave out. The goop holds better than thread.  CalMark supplies a repair kit with each cover that includes a tube of Goop.  You can reach CalMark at (805) 486-3863.
