Below is the floor plan for the 291BHK.

Below is a photo of the outdoor kitchen available on the KZ Sportsmen.

It has a granite counter-top, two-burner stove, faucet and, sink. It also sports a small refrigerator to keep your drink nice and cold. Over its a nice little outdoor set-up for those days you prefer to cook outside.

(5) floor plans with an outside kitchen are available on the Jayco Jayflight SLX. The plans are the following:

We definitely like the look of the Jayco outdoor kitchen. It has a very nice fridge, not one of those small ones that can only hold a few cans. The two-burner stove is also very nice and so is the counter-top. Plenty of cabinet storage and a sink add to the overall functionality.

The Dutchmen Aspen Trail has (10) floorplans that include an outside kitchen. The floor plans are the following:

Not one of the better outside kitchen for travel trailers that Aspen Trail kitchen is at least functional. The fridge is rather small and the sink looks a bit cheap. Nevertheless, it does what it’s supposed to do.

Another Jayco on our list is the White Hawk . This model has (9) floorplans with outside kitchens. The models are as follows:

Though I am personally not a big fan of the small refrigerator I have to give Jayco props on the design and look of the outdoor kitchen on the White Hawk. The two-burner stove and the fairly large sink are excellent for outdoor cooking.  The storage space is small but appears ample.

The Coachmen Apex is a lightweight travel trailer that offers outside kitchen in several of their floorplans. The following have outside kitchens that include a sink, stove, and refrigerator or camp kitchens that only have a stove.

• 208BHS – camp kitchen
• 215RBK – outside kitchen
• 245BHS – camp kitchen
• 300BHS – outside kitchen
• 250RLS – outside refrigerator only
• 265RBSS – camp kitchen
• 269RBKS – camp kitchen
• 287BHSS – camp kitchen
• 289TBSS – camp kitchen
• 300LE – outside kitchen

On the Coachmen the outside kitchen is like the photo below:

The camp kitchen is pictured below. You will notice it does not have a stove slideout like the one above, but it does give you the counter-space to simply place one on top.

We much prefer the outside kitchen rather than the camp kitchen. However, either one will work just fine and with (10) floor plans available with outside kitchens you are bound to find one you like.

Highland Ridge RV offer several models of travel trailers with outdoor kitchens. You can view all of their models here , for now, we’ll introduce you to the Highland Ridge Light. The Light is available in (4) floor plans with outdoor kitchens.

Below is the floorplan for the LT275RLS.

The outdoor kitchen includes a 2-burner stove and a small fridge. There is no counter space so you will need a folding table to set up for cooking.

The Keystone Outback is more than just a travel trailer, its a toy hauler travel trailer. The Outback offers a couple of floor plans with outdoor kitchens. They are the following:

Below is the floor plan for the 325BH.

The Keystone Outback as a flip-out stove, a nice sized fridge, a sink and a little bit of counter space. Overall this is a very nice set-up that is indeed quite functional. You will enjoy cooking outside as it offers plenty of storage space as well.

The last travel trailer on our list of the 9 we chose with outdoor kitchens is the Crossroads Volante. The Volante floor plans with outdoor kitchens are as follows:

Below is the floorplan for the VL25BH showing the location of the outside kitchen.

The Volante offers up as nest little outdoor kitchen with a refrigerator, sink, and two-burner stove. It does offer a little bit of counter space but not much so a small table for prepping food is highly recommended.

In this article, we review 10 of the best used camper trailers with outdoor kitchens. We always recommend buying a used RV so you can save a ton of money!

Do You Really Need A Travel Trailer With An Outdoor Kitchen?

We see people camping in travel trailers with outside kitchens all the time and we have found that not all outdoor kitchens are the same.

Some outdoor kitchens are loaded with awesome features like a compact fridge and freezer, cooktop, sink, cabinetry, electric coolers and the list goes on. Others only have a small compact fridge…

As an example, some manufacturers will build a travel trailer floorplan that includes an outdoor kitchen. However, the kitchen is so watered down that it’s almost extraneous. Rest assured, floorplans with minimal outdoor kitchen features did not make this list.

Top 10 Used Travel Trailers with Outdoor Kitchens

A previously owned travel trailer with an outdoor kitchen is by no means a rarity, however. Think of it more along the lines of “uncommon”. The list of 10 below not only features travel trailers with outdoor kitchens but also some of the best amenities the industry has to offer.

The pass-through storage will allow you to keep extra items stored away so that they are ready when you need them, and a Bluetooth FM stereo with a soundbar will create the perfect party atmosphere while you’re camping.

Are Travel Trailers With Outdoor Kitchens Worth It?

If a travel trailer with an outdoor kitchen is on your list of musts, then it’s absolutely worth it. Cooking outdoors is such a huge part of the American identity, especially while camping, that it’s hard to argue with the existence of some of them in RVs.

In simple terms, if you want it, then it’s worth it. An outdoor kitchen is an extra—an amenity that isn’t necessary. Its value is in its convenience to the consumer who loves cooking outdoors.

For those who feel like they take up too much interior space, that’s true, to a degree. However, some of the travel trailers on this list sleep up to 10 people.

For those who prefer to bring their portable cooking equipment along for the ride, you still have to find a place for it when it’s not in use. That includes eating up storage space that might better be used in other ways. Travel trailers with outdoor kitchens solve that problem.

Final Words About Used Travel Trailers With Outdoor Kitchens

Travel trailers with outdoor kitchens are an outdoor luxury. Sure, it takes up some interior space, but so will anything you have to bring if you want to cook outdoors and lack the built-in feature. Cooking outside is so inextricably linked with camping, it’s hard to imagine not having this amenity.

If you love to cook and socialize outdoors and prefer to use your storage for other purposes, any one of the travel trailers on this list is perfect for you.

This is the perfect feature for all those chefs who like to grill and keep the mess outside, especially if you’ve got kids. It’s also great for those who just want to spend more time in the outdoors. Some even feature space for a TV mount so you can prepare some food while outside watching sports, movies, or whatever you like.

These travel trailers are in no particular order, with some large and small travel trailers that suit a variety of different needs. Without further ado, let’s dive into the 9 best travel trailers with outdoor kitchens:

7 Excellent Travel Trailer Floor Plans With Kitchen Island

With how popular kitchen islands are in the world of RVs there are bound to be manufacturers who are using the same kitchen island from a Class A, Class C motorhome, or luxury fifth-wheel trailer in some of the travel trailers in their line.

This engineering concept is less about cutting corners, and more about getting the kitchen island concept right the first time around.

So, we tried to keep an eye out for some of the more popular kitchen concepts and features that might fit niche needs.

After all, there is surely more than one foody out there that has specific priorities for their travel trailer kitchen.

Not to mention a family who deploys the kitchen island as prime real estate for laying out grab-and-go snacks as well as offer up meals with a buffet-style lineup. 

Throughout the reviewing process, we tried to be mindful of some of the more popular niche needs. Then did our best to pair them with a travel trailer kitchen island to match.

1. Heartland Wilderness WD 2775 RB Travel Trailer

• Dry Weight of 6,354 lbs.
• Payload Capacity of 1,014 lbs.
• GVWR of 7,400 lbs.
• Hitch Weight of 572 lbs.
• Total Fresh Water Tank Capacity of 45 gallons
• Total Gray Water Tank Capacity of 80 gallons
• Total Black Water Tank Capacity of 40 gallons
• 6 Gallon Hot Water Heater
• 3 Burner Stove With Oven
• Electric Residential Refrigerator
• Sleeps up to 6 people
• Air Conditioner 13,500
• Propane Furnace Rated to 30,000 BTUs

The Heartland – Wilderness WD 2775 RB is a large travel trailer with a lot of space and luxury. 

This particular floor plan of the Heartland Wilderness uses a wide-open concept with the kitchen island as the central focal point.

The island features a dual basin sink, yet there’s still plenty of counter space.

It’s a great location to set up grab-and-go snacks or prep and serving platters for mealtimes. 

The rest of the kitchen in the Heartland – Wilderness WD 2775 RB is well appointed.

There is a three burner stove, with an oven with enough internal volume to roast a large chicken, as well as a microwave and a large residential electric refrigerator. 

The bathroom in the rear of the Heartland – Wilderness WD 2775 RB is rather impressive. 

There are the usual flushing toilet and single basin sink as well as a large shower stall. The basin is even deep enough to let you bathe a small child. 

The fresh and black water storage tanks are large at 45 and 40 gallons respectively. The 80-gallon gray water tank is truly massive for a travel trailer.

This speaks to the Heartland – Wilderness WD 2775 RB being capable of supporting a family for a few days of off the grid boondocking, while also being very comfortable parked up for a long week at an RV park, before needing to dump the gray water tanks on your way home. 

All this space, the central kitchen island, and sleeping areas all speak to the Heartland – Wilderness WD 2775 RB being one of the best travel trailers with a kitchen island for a family of four

2. 2021 Jayco Eagle HT 280RSOK Travel Trailer

• Dry Weight of 8,620 lbs.
• Payload Capacity of 1,530 lbs.
• GVWR of 10,130 lbs.
• Hitch Weight of 1,175 lbs.
• Total Fresh Water Tank Capacity of 75 gallons
• Total Gray Water Tank Capacity of 65 gallons
• Total Black Water Tank Capacity of 32.5 gallons
• RV Absorption Refrigerator
• Air Conditioner 15,000
• Propane Furnace Rated to 35,000 BTUs

The 2021 Jayco – Eagle HT 280RSOK is another large travel trailer with a central kitchen island. 

The kitchen itself is somewhat compact, giving away some square footage to the large midship bathroom with washer and dryer prep.

Though there is certainly enough room for a family of four to relax and cook without anyone getting in each other’s way. 

The kitchen itself is well appointed with a three burner stove and oven, as well as a microwave that comes in the standard package.

The RV refrigerator is also heavy-duty enough to handle life gong over bumpy roads without the foibles that some residential electric refrigerators suffer when they take to the roads less traveled. 

If there is a complaint about the kitchen island in the 2021 Jayco – Eagle HT 280RSOK, it’s that most of the counter space is on the right-hand side. 

This makes it a little awkward to hand wash a large batch of dishes.

There’s also no dishwasher available in the standard Jayco Eagle package. You’d have to have one installed as an optional extra.

3. 2021 Keystone Outback 330RL Travel Trailer

• Dry Weight of 8,839 lbs.
• Payload Capacity of 1,661 lbs.
• GVWR of 10,500 lbs.
• Hitch Weight of 1,100 lbs.
• Total Fresh Water Tank Capacity of 60 gallons
• Total Gray Water Tank Capacity of 76 gallons
• Total Black Water Tank Capacity of 38 gallons

The 2021 Keystone – Outback 330RL is a spacious travel trailer that is loaded with creature comforts. 

The kitchen island really stands out in this floorplan with a large skylight directly overhead.

Motes of light stream in giving natural light and making it easy to see what you are doing.

It’s strangely handy if you happen to need to wash up some dishes, but everyone else in the family wants the lights turned low in the RV to watch a movie. 

The kitchen island is perfectly positioned between the cooking area, with its three-burner stove and 10-cubic foot RV refrigerator, and the dining area’s table and chairs.

This lets you set up snacks and appetizers close at hand without anything interfering with the classic kitchen “Triangle” of the sink, stove, and refrigerator. 

Though for all this thoughtful positioning, there still are some minor layout issues in the 2021 Keystone – Outback 330RL’s kitchen.

The primary pantry is on the other side of the refrigerator from the stove and the sink counter.

Even if you were to switch the orientation of the refrigerator door it would still get in the way if you needed to get something out of the pantry and fridge at the same time.

Though this is a minor issue that’s easily overcome by a little advanced planning. 

For the foody in the family, there’s also an impressive outdoor kitchen that comes as part of the standard package with the 2021 Keystone – Outback 330RL.

It includes its own flip-out stove that stands like an outdoor island counter, as well as an outdoor refrigerator for keeping cold drinks and snacks.

4. 2020 CrossRoads Zinger ZR292RE Travel Trailer

• Dry Weight of 7,117 lbs.
• Payload Capacity of 2,483 lbs.
• GVWR of 9,600 lbs.
• Hitch Weight of 802 lbs.
• Total Fresh Water Tank Capacity of 51 gallons
• Total Gray Water Tank Capacity of 44 gallons
• Total Black Water Tank Capacity of 44 gallons
• Propane Furnace Rated to 25,000 BTUs

The 2020 CrossRoads – Zinger ZR292RE has a central island in the travel trailer’s kitchen with a large single basin sink. 

The tradeoff here is that you only have a single sink basin when it comes time to wash and rinse dishes. 

There is also open space under the counter for two chairs. It’s a great place to set up and eat breakfast or give the kids their own eating space.

Especially if you have a small child who needs space for a high chair, but you don’t necessarily want to put them at the large U-shaped dinette. 

While the entire interior living space of the 2020 CrossRoads – Zinger ZR292RE uses an open concept, there is still a distinct kitchen area, dining area, and living area.

For instance, the sightlines from the recliners and the sofa are in no way interrupted by the kitchen island, which isn’t always the case with some of the competitor models at this size and price point. 

When it comes time to go to bed, the U-shaped dinette and the sofa both convert into large sleeping areas.

The queen size master suite is positioned at the front of the 2020 CrossRoads – Zinger ZR292RE and is separated from the rest of the travel trailer by a hallway and the large single bathroom.

This gives the master suite its own sense of privacy. The bathroom shower stall is also large enough and has a deep enough basin to bathe a small child. 

With all the living area, sleeping space, and a kitchen island with room to accommodate chairs, the 2020 CrossRoads – Zinger ZR292RE might be the best travel trailer with a kitchen island for a family with small children.

5. 2021 Grand Design Imagine 3250BH Travel Trailer

• Dry Weight of 8,496 lbs.
• Payload Capacity of 1,699 lbs.

• Total Gray Water Tank Capacity of 90 gallons
• Total Black Water Tank Capacity of 45 gallons
• Sleeps up to 10 people

The 2021 Grand Design – Imagine 3250BH is a large travel trailer with a kitchen island and a ton of sleeping space for a large family that loves to travel together. 

The island in the interior kitchen is large with a large amount of countertop space to layout serving platters or grab-and-go snacks.

The way the open concept living area is laid out makes this travel trailer’s kitchen island the central command center.

The rest of the kitchen is stocked with a ton of storage space. There’s also a three burner stove with a large oven, a microwave, and an 8 cubic foot RV absorption refrigerator.

Not to be left out of the action, the nearby 40-inch flatscreen TV is mounted on a swing arm, that can be turned just enough to be viewed from the kitchen. 

The 2021 Grand Design – Imagine 3250BH also has a great outdoor kitchen.

There’s a modest sink a 4 cubic foot exterior refrigerator, a cooktop range and there’s even an LP quick connect.

This lets you connect your gas grill directly to the RVs own liquid propane system.

6. 2020 Coachmen Freedom Express Liberty Edition 320BHDSLE Travel Trailer

• Dry Weight of 7,952 lbs.
• Payload Capacity of 2,548 lbs.
• Hitch Weight of 879 lbs.
• Total Fresh Water Tank Capacity of 49 gallons
• Total Gray Water Tank Capacity of 66 gallons
• Total Black Water Tank Capacity of 33 gallons
• Sleeps up to 8 people

The 2020 Coachmen – Freedom Express Liberty Edition 320BHDSLE is a travel trailer with a kitchen island that was seemingly designed to accommodate families that need a distinctly separate space for the kids and parents. 

The kitchen island includes a dual basin sink and is perfectly positioned at midship with easy access for everyone. 

The kitchen itself is decked out with a three-burner propane range, a microwave, and a durable RV absorption refrigerator.

The appliances are built into a small slide-out section to help increase the open space. The kitchen island has two basins with countertop space on each side.

This might not seem like a big deal on paper, but this configuration makes it easy to wash, rinse, and dry dishes seamlessly.

It’s not always the case with some of the 2020 Coachmen – Freedom Express Liberty Edition 320BHDSLE’s closest competitors. 

Outside there’s an exterior camp kitchen. It features a small outdoor-grade refrigerator, as well as a cooktop and copious counter space.

This lets you cook outside on hot days to keep from competing with the RV’s interior air conditioner. 

One of the things that helps the 2020 Coachmen – Freedom Express Liberty Edition 320BHDSLE stand apart is that the rear is set up with its own privacy door, bunk beds, a J-Cube sofa with a table, and its own television.

This gives kids, particularly teenagers, their own space to sleep and hang out while letting the adults enjoy the open concept interior of the 2020 Coachmen – Freedom Express Liberty Edition 320BHDSLE.

7. 2021 Jayco Jay Flight 34RSBS Travel Trailer

• Dry Weight of 9,000 lbs.
• Payload Capacity of 2,250 lbs.
• GVWR of 11,250 lbs.
• Hitch Weight of 1,290 lbs.
• Total Fresh Water Tank Capacity of 80 gallons
• Total Gray Water Tank Capacity of 71.5 gallons
• Total Black Water Tank Capacity of 39 gallons

The 2021 Jayco – Jay Flight 34RSBS is one of Jayco’s most popular and versatile travel trailers with a central kitchen island. 

There is a dual basin sink built into the island with large counters on each side for washing and drying dishes or laying out buffet-style family meals.

It’s perfectly positioned for easy sightlines from the theater seating to the entertainment center. 

The front of the 2021 Jayco – Jay Flight 34RSBS features a large master suite with a queen-size bed that’s built into the front’s power-retractable slide out.

The master suite is then separated from the open concept kitchen and living area by a spacious bathroom and a hallway.

Which Is Better A Dual Basin Or Single Basin Sink Kitchen Island?

Most travel trailers with a kitchen island have a sink built into them. This opens up more space in the cooking area, which is nice for when you are preparing meals.

Though the type of sink in the RV’s kitchen island can be a factor when it comes time to wash up afterward.

A dual basin sink is more convenient for washing a small number of dishes and rinsing them before drying.

You can’t really do this efficiently with a single basin sink. If you do happen to fall in love with a travel trailer that has a single basin sink in the kitchen island, you might want to ask the dealer about installing an optional dishwasher. 

Does An Open Concept Limit Sleeping Space?

A lot of the travel trailers with a kitchen island use an open concept floorplan that combines the living room and kitchen into one large living area.

This open concept great room is especially handy for the person cooking meals as they don’t feel left out of the group.

The tradeoff with this open concept floor plan is that you lose some of the private sleeping space that other layouts have.

Kids and guests end up sleeping on a couch in the living room, rather than having something that feels like a private bedroom.

Though there are a few travel trailers with a kitchen island that make it a point to provide a separate private sleeping space.

The contemporary RV marketplace is rife with travel trailers that feature an island in the kitchen.

This makes it easier than ever to find the best travel trailer with a kitchen island that meets your family’s needs and travel preferences. 

If you have a large family, or your teenagers need their own space in the RV, then the 2020 Coachmen – Freedom Express Liberty Edition 320BHDSLE might be the best travel trailer with a kitchen island for you.

The separate bunk room with a couch, TV, and a closing door gives kids their own space to hang out and play games.

The master suite in the front with its own TV gives the adults plenty of distance and their own entertainment space. 

If you like to boondock off the grid, without having to run for fresh water or emptying the wastewater tanks at a dump station, then the 2020 Jayco – Eagle HT 280RSOK might just be the best travel trailer with a kitchen island to meet your needs.

Not only does it have large tanks, but the open concept interior is rife with the comfort features you need when you are truly roughing it. 

If you happen to have a foodie in your family who has a high-end kitchen and outdoor cooking demands, then the 2021 Keystone – Outback 330RL might be the best travel trailer with a kitchen island on this list.

Not only does it have a decked-out interior kitchen, but it also has a fully functional outdoor kitchen with gas hookups.

It’s a great option for hot days when you don’t want meal prep competing with the RV’s air conditioning. 

Whatever your family’s travel needs and preferences happen to be, chances are the best travel trailer with a kitchen island to meet your demands, can be found somewhere on this list.

6 Bunkhouse Fifth Wheel With Outside Kitchen

Although owning an RV can sand the rough edges off the camping experience, we still enjoy spending as much time as possible in the great outdoors. Whenever possible, we prefer to cook most of our meals outside, reserving the indoor kitchen facilities for cold or rainy days.

Having a kitchen setup outside the camper offers more opportunities for variety in terms of the meals we’re able to prepare. It’s a great compromise, which is why we’ve put together this list of bunkhouse fifth wheel travel trailers with outside kitchens.

Table of Contents

Why Have an Outside Kitchen?

When you have outdoor cooking appliances, you can cook just about anything you want for any meal–all while enjoying the beauty of nature. In short, you’re able to combine convenience with ruggedness, which is pretty much what RVing is all about.

There are other practical benefits to having an outdoor kitchen as well. If you’re traveling with small children, you can keep an eye on them as they romp in the woods or strike up friendships with other travelers. There’s no need to pop in and out of the camper to check on dinner, because you have everything you need outdoors.

Remember that not all outdoor kitchens are created equally. Some might consist of a simple gas grill setup, while others go the whole hog with a fridge, sink, stovetop, and microwave. For your convenience, we’ve included details about the outdoor appliances in our spec tables for each model.

About Bunkhouse Fifth Wheels

Every unit on our list contains a bunk area in addition to the master bedroom. This makes them a good choice if you have teenagers or pre-teens in your party, since it gives everyone more space.

Also, note that these are all fifth wheel trailers. They’re configured in a way that makes them incompatible with certain towing vehicles. Make sure your truck has the proper hitch setup before investing in one of these models.

6 Bunkhouse Fifth Wheel Travel Trailers with Outside Kitchen

Crossroads cruiser aire caf31bh.

The Cruiser Aire CAF31BH from CrossRoads has a cozy setup that still manages to give everyone plenty of privacy. As far at the outdoor facilities are concerned, we actually prefer this setup to the indoor version in terms of location as well as convenience. In addition to the sink and stovetop, you’ll get a sizable fridge for storing vegetables.

The main living area is centrally located, with a U-shaped dinette and comfortable couch as well as an entertainment center. To the front of the trailer is the master suite, consisting of a queen bed, closet, overhead storage, and its own bathroom. In our opinion, the extra bathroom alone would make this unit worthy of consideration, especially since the only way to access it is through the bedroom.

The bunk area is located in the rear and includes a trundle bed, a flip-up bunk, and a wardrobe/bunk combination. The main bathroom is configured so that it’s easily accessible from both the living area and the bunk room. Since the sofa and dinette can be converted to sleeping space as well, this rig has a total capacity of 12.

Manufacturers Website

Forest River Sandpiper 369SAQB

The Forest River Sandpiper 369SAQB is an enormous RV that feels more like a city apartment than a camper. With two bathrooms, a sizable overhead fan, and four slideouts, it makes excellent use of its 41-foot-plus length.

In the master bedroom, you’ll find a queen bed, which can be converted to a king upon request. The head of the bed is located in a small slideout to help maximize the space. On the other side of the door is the main bath, which includes a walk-in shower with a seat. This makes it a great pick for elderly travelers.

When you descend the steps, you enter the main living space, with its convertible sofa, dinette set, entertainment center, and electric fireplace. The bunk space takes up residence in the rear and offers a tri-fold sofa in addition to twin bunks in the passenger-side slideout.

Outdoor facilities include a refrigerator, sink, microwave, and plenty of overhead storage. There’s also a nifty gas grill setup located just off the bumper of the rig.

Forest River Wildwood Heritage Glen 310BHI

Forest River has many solid offerings in its lineup. The Wildwood Heritage Glen 310BHI is another fine example that combines class with convenience, particularly with the outdoor bar setup.

At just 9088 pounds, this is one of the most lightweight trailers in this category. The rear bunk area is configured so that the kids can trade ghost stories across the room at night, while the master bedroom takes up residence toward the front. Our one nitpick is that the only bathroom is too far away from the rear, although it’s very convenient for whomever is sleeping in the main bedroom.

The entertainment center can be viewed from either the theater seating or the snug dinette set. A center island gives you plenty of room for food prep, and we love the walk-in chef’s pantry. However, the outdoor facilities are just as inviting. When the passenger-side slideout is engaged, the bar area has an exceptionally cozy vibe.

Jayco Eagle 347BHOK

Travelers should note that the Jayco Eagle 347BHOK sleeps just 6 people, so it’s one of the smaller units listed here. Assuming that’s not a deal-breaker for you, we would recommend giving this unit a closer look.

The master suite includes a queen bed and plenty of wardrobe space, and it’s in close proximity to the main bathroom. This forward-facing segment is located in the upper portion of the rig, so it’s especially private.

The rear bunk area should entice teens who want to spend most of their time away from the adults, and it comes with its own bathroom. Be aware, though, that this bath consists only of a toilet and sink with no shower.

Twin recliners offer the perfect spot for viewing the fireplace and entertainment center. The indoor appliances are more than adequate, but we prefer to take advantage of the outdoor grill area, which also comes with a fridge and an optional TV feature.

Keystone Hideout 30BHKSWE

The airy, open floor plan of the Keystone Hideout 30BHKSWE is the first thing that we noticed upon stepping inside. With this much available floor space, it’s hard to believe that this unit is capable of sleeping 10 people.

The front-facing master bedroom contains only a queen bed and a pair of closets, as well as overhead storage. Steps away is the unit’s only bathroom, which offers a corner stall shower. The entertainment center is cleverly installed on the outer bathroom wall, making it easy to see from every spot in the living area.

A dinette table and foldout sofa can be converted to offer more sleeping space. The rear bunk beds are also wider than most, measuring 52 by 74 inches. It would be possible to pack four kids into this area, assuming they don’t mind sharing beds.

The outdoor facilities make the same economical use of space, with a three-burner range in addition to an 8-cubic foot refrigerator. The nearby awning offers shade and a hint of privacy, which is another nice touch.

Heartland Sundance 3600QB

With the Sundance 3600QB , Heartland offers a functional camper that encourages campers to go outdoors and play. The interior isn’t as luxurious as some of the competition, but it holds up to 11 people, making it an appealing choice for large and adventurous groups.

The rear bunk space consists of a hideaway sofa and flip-up bunk on the driver’s side, with another set of bunks in the opposite slide-out. This area also has its own bathroom facilities. The front-facing master bedroom leads to the second bath, which is the only one with its own shower, but these facilities can also be accessed from the hallway.

The living area is centrally located and offers plenty of space to relax, as well as a double sink and wraparound counter. The outdoor cooking facilities are situated on the outer side of the passenger-side slideout and are fairly basic, but this ties in well with the overall theme of the Sundance camper.

In Conclusion

We’ve found that having outdoor cooking facilities contributes immeasurably to the sense of well-being we feel when we’re on the road. After all, we enjoy camping mainly because we love getting back to nature. Why should we spend all of our time hiding indoors when there’s so much to explore on the other side?

Best of luck, and happy camping!
