Keystone Classics Collection
In 2024, Keystone introduced its “Classics Collection,” a lineup that includes new models from several known RV lines, including Hideout, Springdale, Bullet, Passport, Arcadia, and Cougar Sport.
These Classics Collection RVs are budget-friendly versions of existing campers. By removing certain extras, Keystone made these RVs more lightweight while still offering many modern conveniences. We will indicate in the lists below which RVs are designated as “Classics”.
Let’s explore the various Keystone RV lines by RV type, starting with Keystone travel trailers.
Keystone Travel Trailers
There are seven brands of Keystone travel trailers, comprising over 200 floorplans. These range from more affordable entry-level, single-axle travel trailers to some of the most luxurious travel trailers on the market.
Let’s start with their more affordable lines and working up to their luxury units. First up, Keystone Hideout.
Keystone Hideout
One of Keystone’s most popular brands, Hideout offers three models and 53 floorplans. From small, lightweight couples campers to family-friendly bunkhouses, you’ll find an expansive selection of affordable travel trailers. The Classics Collection models from Hideout make great entry-level options.

With three models comprising 26 floorplans, the Passport line is worth investigating if you’re looking for something towable that doesn’t skimp on features and amenities.

Keystone Fifth Wheels
Keystone’s fifth wheels are some of their most iconic towables, with the Montana line leading the pack. There are five distinct lines of fifth wheels, not including their toy hauler versions. Their fifth wheels are designated “luxury” or “premium”.
Luxury fifth wheels often come at a higher price, but that means more amenities and features. Meanwhile, premium units may weigh less, are smaller in size, and have fewer features, but are more moderately priced. Let’s kick things off with the Cougar.
Cougar
Like their travel trailer counterparts, Cougar fifth wheels are some of the most popular and beloved among RVers. Across their three segments and 21 floorplans, you get a great selection of sizes and options in towability, starting with the Cougar Sport. Notably, Keystone Cougar lines are equipped with Lippert’s anti-lock braking system. And if you haven’t seen it yet, check out the new Cougar Midnight Edition!

Keystone Toy Haulers
You get a serious selection of toy haulers from Keystone, with options for travel trailers and fifth wheels. Like their fifth wheels, Keystone designates their toy hauler lines as “Luxury” or “Premium,” but there’s some crossover.
In general, luxury toy haulers offer high-end amenities and features while maintaining plenty of hauling functionality. Premium lines include travel trailer toy haulers and the Carbon and Impact fifth wheels. Raptor and Fuzion share many similarities, so shopping across their lineups comes down to preferences like floorplans, feature packages, and color schemes.
Raptor Toy Haulers

Keystone Destination Trailers
For more stationary RV living, Keystone has four unique destination trailer RV lines. While the unique and shorter Springdale and Hideout hybrids are expansions on their respective travel trailer lines, Residence and Retreat are traditional destination trailer exclusives.
Springdale & Hideout
Coming in at just 38 feet with a travel-friendly 11-foot, 3-inch height, the Springdale and Hideout destination trailers are better suited for travel. But once you arrive at the destination, you’ll enjoy expansive space and plenty of sleeping capacity, with the lowest capable of sleeping up to eight campers. These destination trailers also boast a more robust axle construction.
Residence & Retreat
For the closest thing you can get to residential living in an RV, check out the Keystone Residence and Retreat floorplans. These options for seasonal RVing and ultimate comfort come with conventional construction or smooth-sided laminate exteriors. Both the Residence and Retreat boast slideouts on every primary bedroom.
