Jayco Eagle or Outdoor Rv Creekside

We are wanting to upgrade from our Jayco Jayflight 27BH. The Jayco has been trouble free for the 9 years we have owned it. We are interested in the 28 BHBE Jayco floorplan and want fiberglass purely for looks. This has made the Jayco Eagle 28BHBE the front runner for our upgrade. However, I have always been intrigued by the reputation of Artic Fox and have discovered the Outdoor Rv Creekside 27BH. I understand there is a connection between Outdoor Rv and Artic Fox. There are some features of the Creekside that I really like that are not on the Eagle. However, Outdoor Rv is a newer company and my previous Jayco experience was solid. I feel like flipping a coin......Any thoughts to help my decision.
Thanks.
  • We've had our Eagle going on 4 years now and have loved it. We've never had any issues with it, and now that it's 6 years old it still looks great.

    I've never had an Artic Fox, but from what I've read on this site they are very nice units.

    I don't think you would go wrong either way.
  • We've had our Jayco new since 2008 and haven't had any problems. With that being said, I'm wanting to buy an Artic Fox. Even though the owners of Arctic own Outdoor RV, the Outdoor RV is not the same in terms of insulation and 4 season capabilities. In my opinion, your choice should be between Arctic Fox and Jayco. Jayco's reputation is good and their trailers are of good quality. The two year warranty is also a big deal in my opinion. Let us know what you decide. These RVs depreciate in value so much that we are thinking about keeping our Jayco and buying an Arctic Fox.
  • We are on our second Jayco, both have been good solid products.

    Jayco has been building RVs for a long time, is still family owned and stands behind their products with a solid 2 year warranty.
  • I think they're surprisingly similar construction-wise.

    I do have a Creekside and think that Outdoors RV did a very, very solid job of building the trailer and paid careful attention to detail. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it or purchase another one.
