Our Favorite Affordable RVs in 2025
Travel trailers are the most budget-friendly RVs on the market, making them an ideal choice for new RV families, couples, and solo travelers. Some even offer surprisingly luxurious amenities and slide-outs that expand the living space. These are our favorite affordable RVs in 2025 to help you start making memories by the campfire.
Keystone Coleman 27B
Specs
- Length: 31’11”
- Dry Weight: 6,108 pounds
- Cargo Capacity: 1,892 pounds
- Sleeping Capacity: Up to 10
Featuring a large slide-out in the living area with a sofa and a booth dinette, the Keystone Coleman 27B has a spacious interior. There’s great flow from the L-shaped kitchen to the dining and living area, and the corner pantry provides excellent storage for a family camping trip.
The rear of this RV camper has four bunk beds and a wardrobe, providing a private space for kids that also accommodates their clothes and toys. The front bedroom has a queen bed, side wardrobes, and overhead storage compartments.
One of the best features of the Coleman 27B is the outdoor storage. There are two pass through storage bays that provide excellent space for fishing poles, camping chairs, a portable fire pit, and campfire accessories. There’s also a 16-foot powered awning with LED lights for plenty of shade and protection from light rain.
Jayco Jay Flight SLX 260BH
Specs
- Length: 29’6”
- Dry Weight: 4,716 pounds
- Cargo Capacity: 1,785 pounds
- Sleeping Capacity: Up to 10
The Jayco Jay Flight SLX 260BH has no slide-outs, but it does feature corner double-over-double bunk beds. Even though it’s not the quad style of the Coleman 27B, the sleeping capacity is the because the bunk beds are so much larger. There’s a good storage area underneath the bottom bunk for bins of clothes and toys.
There’s a small kitchen with all the essentials across from the campside booth dinette. The dining table offers great views, and a jackknife sofa provides additional sleeping space if needed.
The front bedroom has a queen bed, side wardrobes, and overhead storage. It’s separated from the rest of the camper with an accordion door. Overall, the Jayco Jay Flight SLX 260BH has everything a family needs for a comfortable camping trip at a budget-friendly price.
Forest River Campsite Reserve 26CJ
Specs
- Length: 32’9”
- Dry Weight: 6,421 pounds
- Cargo Capacity: 1,253 pounds
- Sleeping Capacity: Up to 10
The Forest River Campsite Reserve 26CJ has a large slide-out with a booth dinette and a sofa, creating a spacious living area. It also features corner double-over-double bunk beds with storage underneath. I love the second entry into the rear corner bath because it makes it easy to clean up after a long day of hiking and exploring. You don’t have to walk through the camper to get to the sink.
The L-shaped kitchen flows well into the dining area, and a corner entertainment center sits directly across from the sofa for optimal viewing. There’s also hidden storage behind the TV. The front bedroom has a king bed, a single wardrobe, and overhead storage compartments.
One significant drawback of the Campsite Reserve 26CJ is the low cargo carrying capacity. Compared to the other travel trailers on this list, it’s significantly lower. Be careful when loading this camper so you don’t exceed its gross vehicle weight rating.
Forest River Ozark 2300RB
Specs
- Length: 28’7”
- Dry Weight: 5,134 pounds
- Cargo Capacity: 2,456 pounds
- Sleeping Capacity: Up to 4
This affordable RV might not sleep as many as others, but it offers a spacious interior and versatility. I love the Forest River Ozark 2300RB’s signature feature: the L-shaped lounger. This offers additional sleeping space, a comfortable place to watch a movie, and an inside dining location if you don’t want to use the campground’s outdoor picnic table.
The kitchen offers ample counterspace for a trailer this size, and there’s a floor-to-ceiling pantry closet to store snacks, cereals, and canned goods. The bathroom stretches across the entire rear wall, so it’s nice and spacious. Finally, the front bedroom has a king bed with side wardrobes and overhead storage.
There aren’t any slide-outs in the Ozark 2300RB, and it only sleeps 2-4 people. But if you’re looking for a travel trailer that won’t break the bank and offers all the essentials for a weekend camping trip, it’s one of the best affordable RVs in 2025.

Top Affordable Small RVs
If you’re looking for smaller, budget-friendly travel trailers, we have a few good options ranging from 20’5” to 21’5” long. These RV campers won’t offer the same interior space, but they have all the necessities to enjoy a comfortable camping trip.
These small RVs are also easier to tow since they’re lightweight. If you’re looking for an RV trailer you can possibly tow with an SUV, check out these affordable small RVs.
Keystone Coleman 17R and 17B
17R Specs
- Length: 20’8”
- Dry Weight: 3,094 pounds
- Cargo Capacity: 1,266 pounds
- Sleeping Capacity: Up to 4
17B Specs
- Length: 20’5”
- Dry Weight: 3,088 pounds
- Cargo Capacity: 902 pounds
- Sleeping Capacity: Up to 6
Keystone has taken over the recognizable Coleman brand for 2025 with some smart innovations like an actual propane furnace in place of an electric fireplace and higher ceilings for additional headroom for taller campers. The 17B and 17R are the most compact and most affordable Coleman travel trailers.
The Coleman 17B is a family-friendly bunkhouse travel trailer with a smaller rear bathroom to make space for corner bunk beds. The Coleman 17R is designed for RV couples with a rear bathroom floor plan and a north-south bed at the front. Both feature a queen-sized primary bed, but the 17B turns that bed 90 degrees.
The central living area of the 17B has a booth dinette on the camp side and a galley kitchen across from it. The 17R has a booth dinette on the opposite side with a galley kitchen on the camp side. Both campers have an 8-foot awning and a front pass through storage compartment.
Keystone Springdale Classic 1750RD
Specs
- Length: 20’11”
- Dry Weight: 3,135 pounds
- Cargo Capacity: 1,265 pounds
- Sleeping Capacity: Up to 4
The Springdale Classic 1750RD is another affordable small RV with a bathroom by Keystone. It’s a few inches longer than the Coleman models and boasts a huge U-shaped rear dinette. This floorplan is ideal for four people who can comfortably sit and eat together. The dinette can also be converted to another sleeping space should you need more than the queen bed for a weekend.
The central living area has a pantry and overhead storage. The kitchen countertop sits against the camp side, providing good views while you’re preparing meals or washing dishes. While this is a smaller travel trailer, the Springdale Classic 1750RD still has a two-burner cooktop, a 3.3-cubic-foot 12V refrigerator, and a microwave.
Jayco Jay Flight SLX 160LK
Specs
- Length: 21’5”
- Dry Weight: 3,455 pounds
- Cargo Capacity: 1,245 pounds
- Sleeping Capacity: Up to 4
Finally, the Jayco Jay Flight SLX line offers another affordable RV in the 160LK model. This is the longest of our small RVs, but it still remains under 5,000 pounds fully loaded. The Jay Flight SLX 160LK features a slide-out with a sofa that doubles as dining seating. The removable table can be used for meals and then stored away to create a spacious living area in this camper under 22 feet.
This rear bath travel trailer‘s bathroom stretches along the entire back wall, making it more spacious than some of the other RVs. The L-shaped kitchen sits along the camp side wall and also provides more space than most smaller campers. A queen bed sits east-to-west in the front of the travel trailer.

Pick for the Best Affordable RVs to Live In
If you’re a full-time RVer who needs more amenities because you’re not just camping in your home on wheels but living in it, there are surprisingly many affordable RVs to live in. They are considerably larger and heavier than the other affordable travel trailers we’ve mentioned, so make sure you have a proper vehicle for towing.
Forest River Campsite Reserve 39GB
Specs
- Length: 40’7”
- Dry Weight: 8,919 pounds
- Cargo Capacity: 4,336 pounds
- Sleeping Capacity: Up to 10
For full-timers, the Forest River Campsite Reserve 39GB‘s 4,336-pound cargo carrying capacity is a huge plus. This 40-footer offers a unique floor plan with front bunk beds and a rear primary bedroom. The bunk room has good storage for kid clothes and toys, and the rear bedroom also has overhead storage and a wardrobe.
The central living area features an entertainment center with hidden shelves behind it. There’s also a fireplace to stay warm on chilly winter nights while watching a Christmas movie with the family. A huge slide-out has a sofa and U-shaped dinette, providing plenty of seating for a full-timing family. Finally, the L-shaped kitchen offers good counterspace for meal prep and kitchen appliance storage.
Heartland Eddie Bauer 34BHS
Specs
- Length: 38’5”
- Dry Weight: 8,824 pounds
- Cargo Capacity: 2,446 pounds
- Sleeping Capacity: Up to 8
Because the Heartland Eddie Bauer 34BHS has three slide-outs, it offers a roomy interior for full-time families. The rear bunk room, which has one of the slide-outs, has three bunk beds and a sofa. Younger kids will love having an open floor to spread out and play.
The central living area has a second slide-out, which has a booth dinette and a sofa. One drawback to this floor plan is the small kitchen. For a full-time family, there is relatively limited counterspace compared to other affordable RVs for full-time living. However, there is a pantry closet and overhead storage.
I love the extra half bath in the Eddie Bauer 34BHS travel trailer. It’s next to the bunk room and has a second entry door, making it easy for kids to run to the bathroom at night and wash up after playing outside. Finally, the front bedroom has a queen bed in a slide-out, a dresser, a wardrobe closet, and washer and dryer connections.
Jayco Jay Flight SLX 321BDS
Specs
- Length: 36’4”
- Dry Weight: 7,600 pounds
- Cargo Capacity: 1,700 pounds
- Sleeping Capacity: Up to 10
The Jayco Jay Flight 321BDS also offers a spacious interior with a slide-out in the bunk room and a slide-out in the living area. The rear of this travel trailer is similar to the Eddie Bauer 34BHS, with three bunk beds and a sofa. However, this bunk room travel trailer doesn’t have a half bath. Instead, a full bathroom has a second entry door next to the bunk room.
Like the 34BHS, the Jay Flight 321BDS doesn’t have much kitchen space for full-time RVers, but it does offer good storage solutions throughout. The sofa lifts up to reveal open storage space, the kitchen is loaded with cabinets and drawers, and there’s even a dedicated shoe cubby beneath the entertainment center.
The slide-out in the living area has a huge U-shaped dinette and a sofa, and an entertainment center separates the front bedroom from the rest of the trailer. The bedroom has a queen bed, side wardrobes, and overhead storage. Unlike the 34BHS, this RV doesn’t have washer and dryer connections.

Which of these affordable RVs is your favorite? Let us know in the comments!
Why were none of the Sun Lite campers by Sunset Park RV mentioned at all? They’re a smaller manufacturer, but from what I’ve seen they’re fairly decent quality, and very affordable. My wife and I are getting a 2025 Sun Lite 19RB LTD this coming spring.
Great question Rich!
I’m actually a former Sunlite Classic owner myself and that 18RD floor plan was a great first towable camper for me. The main reason is what we don’t actively stock as many models from Sunset Park RV as you’ll find on our lots from these other manufacturers. But anyone interested can search available Sunlite inventory here: https://rv.campingworld.com/searchresults?brand=sun%20lite&make=sunset%20park%20rv
