This spring will be our first time returning to our seasonal TT. Our plan is to do as you mentioned. I plan to blow out the antifreeze instead of drain it, that way the bleach doesn't try to sanitize the anti-freeze. Then fill the lines with water/bleach solution and let it sit for an hour or so. Then switch to the campground water and drain the lines of the water/bleach solution. Just run the lines until the smell of bleach is gone.
Although we didn't use it last year, I plan to fill the fresh water tank and leave it full for the duration of the season in case of power failure at the campground. The campground uses wells and if the power goes out, so does the water. We won't drink from the fresh tank since it will be sitting a long time, but it will be nice for clean-ups and for quick showers if it is a long outage.
