I had a 2017 Freedom Elite 26HE and it’s a wonderful coach. You’ll like it! Perhaps it’s more than you want to do right now but winterizing is a cheap and easy 15 minute job. It’s good to practice that skill too - both winterizing and unwinterizing. Start by finding the water heater bypass valve at the back of the heater under the kitchen sink and close it. Then from the outside remove the drain plug from the bottom of the heater. Buy two gallons of the pink antifreeze then look under the front dinette seat cushion. You’ll find a clear plastic hose that has a plug in one end and is attached to a valve in the floor. The valve selects between drawing water from the tank and the plugged hose. Switch the valve to the hose then stick the hose in the bottle of antifreeze and operate each faucet (and the toilet)until it flows pink. It’s a simple coach with just the two faucets, shower and toilet. Unwinterizing just takes switching the valves back and running fresh water. Sounds harder than it is. Good luck.
