I have a 2007 Coachmen (different model). My water pump used to be REALLY loud - to the point I was embarrassed having to run water at night for fear we were waking the campground! I have a similar rear corner bed layout in the back, and the pump is accessed by removing the lower drawer in the cupboards just forward of the bathroom. I'm guessing you've already looked there if you have a similar drawer, but thought I'd offer the suggestion.
I got pipe insulation (the foam stuff that has tape pre-stuck to the seam) and slid it as far along the pipes as I could from my access at the pump to eliminate the pipes vibrating against things. It helped, but ultimately putting a new quieter pump (one with a variable speed motor) helped even more. Now the old pump is onboard as an emergency backup (to be replaced ASAP if ever needed).
