As I all ways do - I recommend a 24 footer T.T.
Depends on what you mean by "a 24 footer" ... if that's box length then I'd say no, it's still too long, but you mean coupler to bumper then I'd agree. Our previous KZ Spree 240BH-LX was a "24 footer" that measured 26' 9" coupler to bumper and although I always managed to get it on a site a number of times it did take some deft maneuvering get it there. It's not so much the size of the site but the access to it, sometimes being quite tight because of the campsite road itself, trees, bushes, inappropriately placed campsite posts, etc, etc, which restricted turning the truck as I was backing in exactly as I would have preferred. In those instances a shorter trailer would have unquestionably been easier and at those times I would have preferred our trailer was no more than 25' overall. As it is, our current trailer is just 22' 6" coupler to bumper and I've yet to have difficulty placing it anywhere I want, regardless of the site access. Others may not mind having to fiddle & fool around getting a longer trailer on-site but I just want to back in and be done with it - a shorter trailer does that for me. It also allows us to rent campsites sight unseen and without reservations if we prefer as I know our shorter trailer will always easily fit. :B
