Sherry, I don't have any experience with awning rooms but Camping World would be a good place to start. You will need to know the size of your awning and probably information from the labels on the awning as well. Good Luck.
 
We have a 2010 Bighorn 3670 also. We recently purchased a room with three sides, back part is open that goes against rv and skirted at bottom. This room does not attach to awning. we purchased this from Sportsman Guide.

Awning rooms are nice, but keep in mind that awnings and awning rooms don't do well in high winds. We stay at a campgrounds that seem to be very windy, it gets to be a pain in the behind just taking the awning in and out, let along having to tear down a awning room in a hurry when winds kick up in an instant. My brother in law bought a awning room when he bought his 5th wheel, he has used it once in 5 years because of the wind. Just something to think about.

thank you all for your replies. since we plan on full timing i thought this would give us some extra room. thank you for the dyerson website, wondering if you have the same size fifth wheel that i have?! could not find one on the sportsman guide website.

We have one with the roll down shades for privacy. Great but yes a pain if you have to tear down in a hurry.
If you get one with the privacy shades, it is heavy. Mine is a 12 or 14 or 16 foot long, strap slides into the track on awning.
I only use if in a place for 5 days or more. But they are nice.

I have read from another member that they have a movie night at camp, with their room. as it's darkening when closed up at night Must have a projector hooked to his laptop to play it

Sherry3, keep in mine that the power awning is not as strong as the old manual ones. On landmark I am taking it in a lot because of wind. That is why I would not put a screen room on mine.

Consider putting up a screen tent just outside the awning, instead. We put ours up in the spring and leave it up. Handled wind and rain with no problem. We had a screen room that attached to the awning on our pop-up. Nice, but a PITA to put up and take down. With the height of the 5'er awning, and electric, putting a screen room on will be a ladder exercise.
