We do!
But you are correct. Humans do produce an amazing amount of moisture. When we take our coach out in the winter, the windows fog and or frost on the inside, unless we run the dehumidifier while we are camping. I can remember one time when we were camping in a pop up trailer in very cold temperatures. When we woke up in the morning, frost and icicles covered the fabric ceiling. My two young daughters loved it! I explained why they were forming, and suddenly there they were standing up blowing on the icicles trying to make them grow!

We have done so a few times as well. It's not that we enjoy winter camping in sub-freezing temps, it's just that it was the only way for us to make the trip south. We've left in -25C temps 2 times, driving until we hit 0 degrees or better, usually in Virginia by then...LONG days.
Only thing you can really do is crank up the heat and waste a lot of propane. We basically just slept in the RV and not much else until we hit Alabama or so. The more one stays in the trailer with little to no heat the more humidity will be created, it's as simple as that.
My response was more based on those who winterize and return only in spring.
