Popular Fifth Wheel Floor Plans

One of the most beautiful – and perhaps overwhelming – parts of buying a fifth wheel RV is finding the right floorplan. Fifth wheels come in numerous layouts, and you’re bound to find one that fits your personality and needs. Below are just a few fifth wheel floor plan options popular among RVers.

Popular 5th Wheel RV Floor Plans

Because fifth wheels tend to be longer and heavier than some travel trailers, they require a truck with a higher towing capacity. Use our Towing Guide to find out how much your truck can tow before you check out these popular fifth wheel floor plans.

Bunkhouse Fifth Wheels

Big family or RVing in a group? Bunkhouse models feature loads of sleeping spaces to keep everyone comfy. Add slideouts and these models are spacious enough to accommodate multiple people comfortably—even on rainy days.

The Forest River Sabre fifth wheel offers a unique floorplan with a raised bunkhouse area in the rear and ample storage space underneath. That basement storage area is accessible from the fifth wheel’s rear exterior, and there’s also an outdoor kitchen on the passenger side.

Bunk Room Fifth Wheels

Bunk room fifth wheels are also ideal for families or group camping, but they provide a little more privacy than standard bunkhouse models. The bunks are completely separated from the main living and kitchen areas by a door, and some even feature a second dedicated bathroom, so the kids aren’t using your primary bathroom in the middle of the night.

Featured RV – Forest River Wildcat One 36MB

More manufacturers have been rolling out bunk room 5th wheels with the room located in the center of the floorplan. These are classified as “mid bunk fifth wheels,” and the Forest River Wildcat One 36MB is a great option in that category.

• Length: 42’7”
• Dry Weight: 11,538 pounds
• Sleeping Capacity: Up to 8

Forest River’s Wildcat One is new to the scene. It features a centrally-located bunk room with a slide-out, a loft area, and ample storage for all the kid’s belongings. Placing the bunk room in the center of the floorplan frees up the rear for the kitchen, dining, and entertainment rooms.

In that entertainment area, you’ll have a TV, an electric fireplace, theater seating, and a fold-out sofa if you need extra sleeping space. The dinette also converts to a small bed, and the kitchen features a center island to give you plenty of counterspace for meal prep.

Front Living Fifth Wheels

Designed for maximum comfort for a couple the front entertainment option dedicates itself to a spacious living room. Multiple couches and a large screen TV mean these models pretty much come with their own entertainment room or just make for ample space to allow guests to crash, thanks to hide-away beds.

Featured RV – Forest River Cedar Creek 371FL

• Length: 41’11”
• Dry Weight: 16,615 pounds
• Sleeping Capacity: Up to 6

The Cedar Creek fifth wheel from Forest River features an ideal floorplan for hosting guests on your RV travels. The front living area boasts two tri-fold sofas, theater seating, a panoramic front window, and a hidden telescoping TV for watching movies on rainy evenings.

At the back of the unit, the primary bathroom includes his-and-hers sinks and a closet with a washer-dryer prep. In the kitchen, you’ll love the large central island and the options for a second half-bath or a bonus pantry for storing dry goods.

Rear Living Fifth Wheels

Rear living floor plans emphasize living space. Some of these models utilize this plan to offer two separate bathrooms. Dinettes, a large kitchen area, and theatre-style seating make this floorplan popular among those who love cooking delicious camping meals.

Featured RV – Forest River Cardinal Red 29RL

• Length: 34’7”
• Dry Weight: 11,825 pounds
• Sleeping Capacity: Up to 6 adults

The Cardinal Red fifth wheel is also new to Forest River’s lineup. The floorplan looks very similar to the Wildcat One, with the exception of the central bunk room. You’ll still get three slide-outs that vastly expand the rear living area.

That area includes your entertainment center, a spacious kitchen with a central island, theater seating, and a convertible dinette for eating or extra sleeping space. The Red Climate package for this 5th wheel includes a ducted air conditioning system with two 13,500-BTU A/C units and prep for a third, making it ideal for camping in hot and humid climates.

Rear Entertainment Fifth Wheels

These fifth wheel floor plans are built around an entertainment center at the rear of the camper. Spacious couches surround the large-screen TV, making these models ideal for watching the game and keeping the tailgate party going. And with large kitchens that overlook the entertainment area, the snacks are never far out of reach.

Rear Kitchen Fifth Wheels

The chef in your family will love a fifth wheel floor plan with a rear kitchen floorplan. It allows you to concentrate on meal prep and cooking without people walking back and forth through the kitchen.

The entry door will typically be into the living room, but some rear kitchen floorplans offer two doors – one into the living room and one into the kitchen. This makes it easier to prep meals inside and transport them to your campsite’s picnic table.
