My parents have a place in the northern part of WV in the mountains and they winterize it every fall. They actually have the pressure tank and everything buried in the ground inside a barrel and it has worked well so far. They drain the lines and put marine antifreeze in the traps so they don't freeze and bust. They cut all the power and take everything out of the fridge. It has worked well so far and in the spring, they open it back up.
I did notice you said you had a trailer. My concern would be snow build up on the roof. Two years ago we had to clean their trailer roof off which had 4" of ice plus 36 inches of snow on it. A guy up the road wasn't so lucky and his trailer caved in. My uncle's trailer had some of the trusses break, so he put a house type roof on it.
good luck
