About the only way to get rid some of the moisture is to let it out! Keep your roof vent open a little bit...perhaps crack a window etc. Try keeping wet laundry outside. Use the stove hood vent when cooking. Perhaps keeping the coach a little cooler 68-70 might help. Condensation can be an issue especially with single pained windows and cold weather.

You could purchase a dehumidifier if the problem gets really bad.

Open and run vents fans when cooking. One would be suprised at how much water people off gas during the night. Get a dehumidifier or some Dryez or Ridx I think are the two crystal type that gather moisture is what I use while in storage and can't believe how much water I gather with noone in the RV. Leave a top vent and window cracked just a little helps. And if a warm afternoon open things up the get moist air out.

The moisture is a by product of burning propane for heat or cooking. The warm moist air condenses on any cold surface. With this in mind the info above is best summed up like this.
Don't use heat.
Use electric heaters.
Install vinyl storm windows on the inside of your windows.
Get a dehumidifier and drain it to the outside.
Hang bags of desiccant inside the coach.
Vent the warm moist air to the outside.

I use a 30 PT dehumidifier from WW only with excellent results. If the furnace is on the dehumidifier is on. No moisture.
