Just trying to figure out what to do about hanging towels in the bathroom.Only wall is behind the toilet and the width is less than 16 inches.Have thought about cutting down a standard 18 inch towel bar to fit but don't like the idea of hanging over the john.I did buy a spring shower curtain rod to put in the shower. This works okay but I have to take wife's towel down to shower.Biggest dislike about this trailer is the size of the bathroom and lack of places to put a towel rack in that is out of the way.Any suggestions would be appreciated.Thanks

Over the door hooksExample of one

We put one of these over the toilet: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Better-Homes-and-Gardens-Wall-Shelf-Oil-Rubbed-Bronze/15752096?findingMethod=Recommendation:wm:RecentlyViewedItemsWe use it to place folded towels and wash clothes on the shelves and hang a damp one from the round bar on the bottom. It matched the fixtures as well

In our 26lrss I bought a dbl towel rack, attached it to a piece of oak plywood that I edge finished, stained and sprayed with clear lacquer, then attached the whole thing to the wall with molly bolts. I had to cut the bars on the rack shorter to make it fit better. Also you will need a piece of something soft on the end of the towel rack so that when you open the right side medicine cabinet the mirror won't hit the rack and crack. I just used a round felt pad and stuck it on the bar end. There's only one stud on that wall and it's in the middle.

Thanks for the tips. Appreciate it.

We had the same trailer layout in a 2007 Jayco 28RLS but had more room in the bathroom.

The 2013 Heartland 26LRS is the same trailer but I think they made the bedroom larger and the bathroom a bit smaller.

Don't let those numbers fool you, both trailers are 30' 2" inches bumper to bumper.

Both trailers are great but the Heartland followed us around the country. First saw it at an RV Show in Daytona, then at a dealership in NH and finally succumbed at Camping World in Nashville.

We have only used it a few times but hope to get it on the road in August and also try a bit of camping near home.

Again, thanks for the tips. Happy Camping

We tried the over the door bracket, with hooks and just did not like how the towel hang (and fall off). So we went wth actual towel bars fro Home Depot (Pegasus).
