#1. Forest River Wildcat Fifth Wheel
Keeping It Simple!
View All Forest River Wildcat Fifth Wheel Floorplans!
| No. of Floorplans | Unloaded Weight | Sleeps | Length |
|---|---|---|---|
| 23 | 7466-13170 lbs | 4-10 | 31-42 feet |
Why we recommend the Forest River Wildcat fifth wheel: Given that it has 24 floorplans, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the Wildcat, which is already a great fifth wheel, is also one of the best fifth wheels RVs with bunk beds as well. It can hold a maximum of 10 people in the Wilcat 28BH floorplan, but you could also go for the Wildcat 38MBX if you’re looking for something smaller. It’s also smaller and lighter than some other fifth wheels, making it great if your towing vehicle isn’t suited for heavier fifth wheels.
Heading on to the features, it has all the luxuries of a camper, as a fifth wheel well should, such as reclining theater seating and large LED TVs in the living room. On the outside, it sports custom accented front caps for a sleek look and some exterior features such as awning and outdoor speakers. You can also take it up a notch through the list of available options, which we recommend talking a look at in detail on the RV page!
Key Features:
- 23 different floor plans available
- Residential brushed chrome door and drawer hardware
- Large sofa with residential hide-a-bed sleeper
- Residential tile pattern shower surround
- Aerodynamic custom accented painted front cap
- Dual marine-grade outside stereo speakers

#2. KZ Durango 1500 Fifth Wheel
KZs Finest Lightweight Fifth Wheel!
View All KZ Durango 1500 Fifth Wheel Floorplans!
| No. of Floorplans | Unloaded Weight | Sleeps | Length |
|---|---|---|---|
| 11 | 7620-9430 lbs | 5-10 | 28-35 feet |
Why we recommend KZ Durango 1500 fifth wheel: While 7620 lbs might not sound light by any stretch of imagination, it would seem like it when you would look at other fifth wheels that start with 10,000 lbs dry weight. The Durango 1500, on the other hand, manages to add a good chunk of bunkhouse floorplans such as the Durango 1500 D280BHS and the Durango 1500 D292BHT, with its footprint ranging between 28 and 35 feet.
Tailgators will find the Durango 1500 quite appealing since it has all the writing for an exterior TV and has outside speakers too. Its equally good in terms of indoor features, where you’ll notice a full sized refrigerator, a deluxe sleeper sofa, pullout pantry and a faux vinyl ceiling. Similar to our previous choice it has a ton of different upgrades available: convection microwave, standalone DVD player, freestanding table and rear observation camera, to name a few. In a nutshell, the Durango 1500 is definitely a top choice for fifth wheel RVs with bunk beds.
Key Features:
- 12 different floor plans available!
- 100% exterior LED running lights and taillights
- Outside speakers and pre-wired for exterior TV
- 8 Cubic foot double-door refrigerator
- 4-inch high-density foam cushions on all booth dinettes

#3. Keystone Hideout Fifth Wheel
Spacious Camping Personified!
View All Keystone Hideout Fifth Wheel Floorplans!
| No. of Floorplans | Unloaded Weight | Sleeps | Length |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | 7745-9635 lbs | 6-10 | 30-36 feet |
Why we recommend the Keystone Hideout fifth wheel: The fifth wheel version of Keystone’s hideout is a bit different yet similar to its travel trailer version. Different in the sense that it features lesser number of floorplans and obviously more features since it’s a fifth wheel, but similar because its equally loved by users and critics in the fifth wheel world for its top notch quality and features. We recommend taking a look at the Hideout 295BHS and the Hideout 308BHDS.
Keystone’s attention to details is clear with the Hideout once you’ll notice that it has taken care of storage for those opting for a shorter fifth wheels and, of course, all of the luxuries regardless of which floorplan you choose. We liked that it had taken care of safety particularly well since (can’t be too safe, right?). Furthermore, it has a few options such as a free-standing dinette and a spare tire, making the Hideout another great choice!
Key Features:
- 10 different floor plans available
- Lighted adjustable power awning
- Full-strutted storage under master bed
- Interior surround sound speakers
- Seamless one-piece full walk-on roof
- Prepped for backup camera

5 Floorplans. Same Luxury.
View All Palomino Puma Fifth Wheel Floorplans!
| No. of Floorplans | Unloaded Weight | Sleeps | Length |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | 5322-8795 lbs | 4-10 | 27-34 feet |
Why we recommend the Palomino Puma fifth wheel: Palomino’s fifth wheel version of the Puma is a fifth wheel with, frankly, so many floorplans available that ones who didn’t make a checklist for buying their fifth wheel will find themselves confused because they’re all so good. From the 29 feet Puma 259RBSS to the 38 feet Puma 295BHSS, they’re all great and, of course, feature a lot of other bunkhouse floorplans too!
On the inside, the 80-inch height will allow people to comfortably stay and enjoy the luxuries it has to offer whether its cozying up on the sofa near the fireplace and watching some TV or cooking in the kitchen with its decorative splashboard, 3 burner cooktop and 6-feet double door refrigerator which can be upgraded to a 11 feet variant, as can its other aspects through a list of different options available. A few of them include but are not limited to an upgraded Serta® mattress, bike rack and roof ladder.
Key Features:
- 5 different floor plans
- 14-inch deep overhead cabinets in super-slide models
- Evergreen high density foam mattress
- Suburban 3-burner, high output range

One of the Cozier Fifth Wheels Out There!
View All Heartland Sundance Fifth Wheel Floorplans!
| No. of Floorplans | Unloaded Weight | Sleeps | Length |
|---|---|---|---|
| 11 | 8307-12896 lbs | 2-9 | 30-42 feet |
Why we recommend Heartland Sundance fifth wheel: The Sundance is another fifth wheel that isn’t oblivious to our other top fives. With its versatility both in terms of sleeping capacities and length, it’s likely you’ll find the perfect floorplan for you with the Sundance or, at least, somewhere pretty close. For bunkhouses in particular, the Sundance 297QB and the Sundance 3710MB are pretty great choices.
The Sundance is segregated into two variants: the mid profile and the high profile ones. There are bunkhouse floorplans in both variants and we’ll focus on the ones that are common in both of them. For starters, they have slam latch baggage doors, painted fiberglass front cap and solar prep. On the inside, both of them have 8 cubic feet refrigerators, universal docking stations and tri-fold sleeper sofas. Both can be upgraded to a 15,000 BTU air conditioner over the traditional 13,500 BTU one too.
Key Features:
- 11 different floor plans available
- Painted fiberglass front cap
- 8 cubic feet stainless steel refrigerator
- 30-inch OTR microwave
- Tri-fold sofa bed
- Back-up camera prep
