Chilliwack in November

Need a place to stay in November close to Escape. I've been checking out a few places but they close on Oct 12th. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

The KOA in Burlington, WA is open then from what I can see. It's not that far away, it's where we stayed after picking up our 19. I believe I saw some municipal rv spots near or in Sumas too.

You'll have to convert from Celsius, but 0 is freezing.

Highways connecting to and running through Chilliwack can get very tricky with ice, sleet, rain, wind and snow in November. Most locals drive with all season or dedicated snow tires. Coming in from Phoenix, Arizona with summer tires, pulling a trailer is not something I'd want to do.
(By the way) gbaglo's screen shot is 6 years old, and forecasters are predicting a wet winter up here and sometimes that equates to slushy highways.

This is also an El Niño year in the PNW. We 're told to expect dryer and warmer than usual weather.

The chart is historical weather average over many years as far as I know.

Well fortunately, ETI will be pulling it down from Chilliwack to Sumas, then we'll just have to get over to Lynden for a few days to shake it down. If weather in Lynden looks like it will be bad, we'll change plans and head South pretty quickly. We've pulled our 17B in pretty severe November weather over to TX, but good to know to expect possible slush, ice, lower temps, etc.

Need clarification.
You need a place to stay in your Escape, or a motel/hotel prior to pick up?

Both...I need one night at a motel and then 2 nights near chiliwack with the trailer. I could just stay one night with the trailer because I don't really want to hang out in the cold. I was just gonna stay an extra night in case something was wrong with the trailer or I had a question for Escape. If you don't think that's necessary then I'll just need one night with the trailer. After Chilliwack we are heading to Zion for a week.
