Floor Plans

I'm looking for some travel trailers under 24 ft with floor plans like the Keystone Springdale 1740RK. Check it our here: https://www.keystonerv.com/product/springdale/comfort-travel-trailers/floorplans/1740RK

I absolutely love that floor plan, but I've read some negative reviews on that particular trailer. Any suggestions?
  • We've been at it for a while. I pulled the trigger on a used 2021 CrossRoads RV Sunset Trail SS185RK. Got a great deal and it's the exact layout I was looking for.

    Is this your first TT? If so, consider a used one.
    Most everyone finds that the way they imagined camping is not at all how they ended up camping. The floor plan that seemed so perfect on paper ended up not being a good fit at all. Perhaps you imagined being all by yourself all alone in the forest but instead use campgrounds or the other way around. Buying a used unit will allow you a trial run so to speak, without breaking the bank if you want to make a change. There is nothing worse than being locked into a unit that is a poor fit for you because of the financials.
  • Thank you for the suggestions. Those look like some great options.
  • Cougar 22RBS is almost identical but quite a bit nicer. Design and build are better also as it is higher up on the Keystone line. Three years and my biggest repair was to replace a bad usb port. Lots better than previous Starcraft and Forest River units.
