How about a Grand Design Solitude 365 or 366DEN model?
Not a traditional bunk house, but is usable as an everyday living space as well.
I like that floor plan. Although it's similar to what I have without bunks of above the sofa. It is also a bit more upscale.
For younger kids I prefer the additional sleeping space. While I do like the floorplan it is a bit more adult oriented. Maybe upscale is the trend.
One thing I like about the midship bunkhouse floor plans is there is only 1 bathroom. I have come to view the added 1/2 bath as overkill.
I don't mind the additional toilet and sink but I despise the additional gray and black tank. The 1/2 bath has its own tanks which have to be dumped and maintained. In the end the additional 1/2 bath is more trouble than its worth do to the additional tanks.
Unless we are on a long trip or have extra people a long I forbid my crew from using the rear bathroom because I don't want to deal with the tank.
Eliminating the 1/2 bath altogether allows for better use of the space. I also feel this way about outdoor kitchens. The outdoor kitchens are convenient however an RV is too small to have/need 2 kitchens. I think the outdoor kitchens should be eliminated and the space utilized in a more efficient manner.
I don't think many people agree with me on the kitchens because they are becoming more popular especially on bunkhouse units.
