Is a Bunkhouse RV Right for Me?

Families with kids will want to consider a bunkhouse RV. These unique campers come with bunk beds, which doubles the sleeping spaces without taking up more floor space. This unconventional layout results in many perks, which we discuss below.

You Have a Smaller Budget

Bunkhouse RVs are a good option for people who have a limited budget. These campers offer a lot of sleeping places, but they are cheaper than other RVs that can hold the same number of people.

Bunkhouse RVs can also last longer than other types of RVs. This is because they don’t have an engine (like motorhomes do) or as much weight pushing down on the chassis (like fifth wheels do). Owners often end up spending less money on repairs and parts replacements.

With a bunkhouse RV, you can save money when buying the camper and throughout the camper’s lifespan.

You Travel With a Large Group of People

Bunkhouse RVs have more sleeping accommodations than other campers of the same size. It’s because these campers have beds that are stacked on top of each other. Get the sleeping spaces you need, but without needing to buy a giant expensive camper that would be difficult to tow.

If your family is not big now, you can still benefit from getting a bunkhouse travel trailer. Maybe your family is growing and you’ll eventually need the extra space. That way, you won’t need to deal with the hassle of selling one RV to buy a larger one – and losing some of the camper’s value due to depreciation.

It is important to note the size of the bunk beds. They are usually the size of a twin mattress, which makes the bunk beds ideal for children. If your traveling party only has adults or adults and teenagers, the bunk beds may not be a viable option.

You Want Choices

There are plenty of different bunkhouse RVs available. Some offer only the essentials for overnight stays, some are full of luxurious amenities, and most fall somewhere in the middle.

You Are New to Towing a Camper

If this will be your first time towing a camper, you will especially want to consider a bunkhouse RV. 

Bunkhouse RVs are smaller and lighter than other types of RVs, which makes them easier to tow. Your tow vehicle’s turning radius and stopping distance might still be a little different, but it won’t be as affected as with other types of campers.
