Rear Corner Bed- bothersome?

Had corner bed. I sleep alone. Never again.

We are getting to the point where we can spend more time traveling, but by the same token these old bones don't work as they used to. We wanted a walk around bed and a full time eating area in the shortest vehicle possible. As others have said, selecting an RV is a compromise. We selected the Phoenix Cruiser 2100. Sure the sofa has to unfold and the bed made when setting up camp, but with the help of a home made (DW is a retired seemstress) Travasak, it's a breeze. And at 21 foot it's not much longer than our B. Works for us, but not for every one I know, as we tend to be touring campers/RVers rather than destinationers. Got the constant itch for the road.
And oh yeah no corner bed in the 2100.

If you use an RV for occasional camping for a week or two, you may be reasonably happy with marginal sleeping accomodations provided you don't have serious knee problems, etc. Best sleeping solution is a rear bedroom/RV queen bed with access on both sides or twin beds which rules out very short rigs. Joint health can change with aging or suddenly with injuries. Try climbing up and down a ladder and simulate sleeping in the overhead or on convertible dinette or jacknife couch before deciding on length and sleeping setup.

Our first TT had a rear three quarter corner bed, I slept next to the wall. It was cold and whenever I rolled over I would hit the wall and window. I learned to use a sleeping bag on cold nights to keep warm.

Getting up in the night wasn't too bad. She would usually wake me up when she got up and I would get up too, so I didn't have to crawl over her.

I guess it wasn't too bad since we survived two trips to the west coast from Vermont, one of them to Alaska.

All our RVs since have had walk around queen beds, much better sleeping.

Only you can determine if it will work. Practice in a unit you are considering. Our smallish TT not only has a corner bed, but a bunk and cupboard completely over the wall side making it almost cave like and partly over the inside area. My DW told me straight out "you get the wall" It doesn't bother me. I occasionally climb over if I have to use the bathroom or one of the kids needs something. I am 40, I don't mind climbing over and DW sleeps through it mostly. A TT with a walk around bed and room for 5 would require a lager TT than we have and compromises we did not want to make. I also don't mind changing the sheets, and we do like sheets and blankets on our bed. The kids loft beds at home are MUCH more of a pain!

Doesn't bother us at all. We modified linen to fit it just like we modify all kinds of other stuff (including the RV).

We bought a travel trailer with that corner bed configuration before we knew better. We put up with it for 2 seasons and then sold it for a model that had a walk-around bed.

Getting older, we both get up at night to hit the bathroom and climbing over each other was a task. I would NEVER purchase any kind of unit that had that corner bed if two people had to sleep in it.

Gee...we find the corner bed in our Prism just fine. Easier to make up than the bed in our previous Roadtrek, plus it is longer, which my legs appreciate. Guess to each their own! ST

We have a TT w/ a front bed that covers the width of the trailer. So you have to climb over the inside person. It will be the last trailer with a bed like that!

We hated the corner bed when we were young. It was a pain in the middle of the night and a double pain to make up in the morning. Now that we're older, we won't even consider a floor plan with a corner bed. Nuff said.
