Frequently-Asked Questions About Bunkhouse RVs

If you’re interested in a recreational vehicle that offers a unique sleeping arrangement, a bunkhouse RV might be the perfect option for you. Bunkhouses are great for families and big groups of travelers. Below, we’ve answered some of the most frequently asked questions people tend to have about bunkhouses so that you can decide if they will meet your needs.

So, What’s a Bunkhouse?

A bunkhouse RV is any recreational vehicle that contains at least one set of bunkheads. Bunkhouses might be travel trailers or motorhomes, small or large, but typically, they are towable RVs.

What Does a Bunkhouse Layout Look Like?

Usually, the bunkhouse trailer will have its living space (kitchen, living room) in the middle of the trailer, with a standard bedroom at one end, and then a set or more of bunk beds at the other end. Kids and teenagers like this layout because it gives them their own space that’s separate from the parents, and sets of bunks are more private than sleeping on modular furniture in the living room.

Who Sleeps on the Bunks?

The bunks in a bunkhouse will be large enough to accommodate adults, but the overhead clearance on the top bunk will be minimal, so shorter adults may fit there better. The standard twin mattresses also tend to be more comfortable for children than adults, but anyone could sleep there if they wanted.
