Why Choose a Bunkhouse Travel Trailer Under 30-35 Feet? 

Why Choose a Bunkhouse Travel Trailer Under 30-35 Feet?  The big advantage of choosing a short travel trailer, under 30-35 feet, is that it is easier to drive, maneuver to park in an RV park, and tour around with the trailer between travel cities. In addition, a bunkhouse saves space and weight, allowing a large number of people to sleep and rest in a somewhat limited space. Not to mention that children love bunk beds.

Below see our list of the 8 best bunkhouse travel trailers under 30 and 35 feet with floor plan details, 360-tours, walk-through videos, and specs.

About John Smith

For more than 30 years I worked in the exciting world of RV manufacturing. I liked knowing that I could improve the campers with customer feedback and see the improvements and upgrades on floor plans, delivering the best designs and the best quality RVs, year after year. After traveling with my family in RVs and small rented campers across the USA, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and even North Africa, I feel that I must share personal experiences, guidance, concerns, tips, and news. At Camper Outdoor, we share our biggest passion, weekend getaways in a camper, RV vacations, extended stays in RV parks, the quiet life of senior couples who choose to spend more time enjoying their RV, and boondocking experiences (which as in the beginning was unsuccessful, we have good tips to avoid the same thing happening to you!). Enjoy this website created just for you!
