What type of heating system to you have. If it is a propane furnace I would be surprised if it didn't have a duct going to the basement.
I actually moved to Northern Michigan in late March, lots of snow on the ground and down into the teens at night.
I spent some time before going trying to seal the basement to prevent heat loss, I used the weather sealing foam in the front and back where there were lots of holes.
I bought a couple of remote temp monitors so I could monitor the water tank bay and the basement compartment. I could confirm I was keeping temps above freezing.
I did have access to electric (you could use your generator) and ran an electric cube heater in the basement, I used a thermostatically controlled plug that would turn the heater off and on.
