Under 24 ft with slide that sleeps 4?

how could your design work? you need to stretch that trailer out to accommadate the bed/dinette interference when closed.

I'm assuming it would be a Murphy bed.

Yep- the murphy bed would have to be up for the slide to come in. I didn't post it here- but it's completely a pipe dream and doesn't take into account the wheel wells anywhere or anything like that.

The camper would be quite crowded with the bed down, but seems like it could be livable with the bed up for such a small package.

I just think the whole thing would be heckishly heavy. I've got a 3500 DRW for my fifth wheel, but wanted a small "camping camper" to use fit places that I can't take my big camper or when I want a more "rustic" experience.

One option a dealer mentioned to me for those floorplans that have a deep slide is to just throw a camping mattress on the floor for the 4th person.

Not sure what your tow vehicle is... But what about an Outback Terrain 210trs? Well under 24 ft total, with a king bed slide, and bunks. No side slide so it's narrower than some, but with the rear slide it makes up for in it length. Also a small outside cook top and sink is standard.

Thanks, missed that one. None in stock around here it appears but I'll have to look around.

My tow vehicle is a 2011 Dodge Durango Hemi.

No worries!

Just slightly over the 24 foot mark also look at the outdoorrvmfg.com they have a couple that may suit your needs.

Forgot about them, glad to see they are still around. The only ones that really sleep 4 adults though are 27 ft or so; the others have either a dinette that's too narrow or a sofa that's too short. Which is the norm. Thanks though.

We just had 4 adults in it last weekend. Worked great. Overall length is 24 feet. Dinette in the slide. Full size queen up front, two bunks in the back, and a dinette that converts to a small bed.

I do not see any place for clothes or towels. Where does that foresome camp?

Plenty of storage over, under and alongside the queen bed, and under the lower bunk in addition to the cabinets over and under the counter.

Could always use more though.

We had a Jayco 24RKS that had a small couch slide that would sleep 4. 2 on the queen bed, one on the couch and one on the dinette.

Unfortunately the real length of that is approaching 28 ft. Many more options once you get over 25/26 ft or so.

Shopping this same floorplan. Curious to see what other options pop up here.

I've been in that Vibe, and it was a bit strange to me. It has a slide, but that does nothing to increase walking space. It still feels cramped, and you have to climb through the dinette to get to the bunks.
