Bunk room travel trailers offer comfortable sleeping space for large families, and many include residential amenities that make it easy to prepare meals and relax after adventurous days. So if you imagine traveling the country with your family, skipping expensive hotel rooms, and enjoying the best RV campgrounds, a travel trailer with a bunk room might be your family’s dream RV!
If you’ve never heard of a travel trailer with a separate bunk room, you’re in the right place. Let’s learn more about this RV type and explore 10 of our favorite travel trailer floor plans with a bunk room!
What Is a Travel Trailer with a Bunk Room?
A travel trailer with a bunk room is a towable RV that offers enhanced sleeping arrangements, especially for families. While there are many travel trailers with bunk beds, those with dedicated bunk rooms stand out for their added privacy. Travel trailer bunk rooms are fully enclosed with a door, much like a private bedroom. Inside, you’ll almost always find sleeping space. But many bunk rooms include storage, a work desk, convertible sofas, and even small dinettes, making them extremely versatile for kids or guests.
The travel trailers below feature rear bunk room floor plans, providing optimal separation between the primary bedroom and the bunk area. If you’re searching for a bunk room at the center or front of the layout, you’ll likely need to explore mid bunk fifth wheels or front bunkhouse 5th wheels.

What Campers Have 4 Bunks?
The majority of campers with bunk rooms sleep four people. This can vary between four single bunks, two single bunks, and a queen, and two to three bunks with a convertible sofa or dinette. Families of six may find campers with the four single, permanent bunks the most convenient for avoiding daily setup and breakdown. Two examples include the Bullet Crossfire 2870QB or the Passport 282QB.
Is There a Camper That Sleeps 10 or More People?
The Jay Flight 3301BTS sleeps 12 people, which is impressive for a travel trailer under 40 feet. Plenty of other campers also accommodate 10 or more, including several in this article:
What Size Sheets for Trailer Bunks?
The correct sheet size for travel trailer bunks depends on the size of the bunks themselves. Regular queen sheets work for the few bunk rooms with lower queen beds. Most bunk room twin-sized mattresses use twin sheets, but the fitted sheet may not fit the height of the mattress.
Personally, we use two top sheets on our bunk mattresses, which we find easier to tuck under. Looking for another option? There are numerous replacement bunk mattresses with a more standard height. This is a great option for lower bunks with plenty of head space.
