When it comes to fifth wheels, the word luxury becomes the norm as all of these have all the bells and whistles that is expected due to their higher price tags in comparison to other RVs. However, today we will be looking at the best among the best, and bringing you the top 5 best luxury fifth wheels out there!
What puts an RV on the list: Finding luxury fifth wheels becomes quite a task once you realize that all of them have something distinctly good about them. However, the ones that were the best in our opinion were the ones with a featureset that is too good to be true, have the features one would definitely look for in a luxury fifth wheel, and ones that have a good average of critic and user reviews.
The Top 5 Best Luxury Fifth Wheels:
- Grand Design Solitude Fifth Wheel
- DRV Luxury Suites Mobile Suites Fifth Wheel
- Redwood RV Redwood Fifth Wheel
- Forest River Cardinal Fifth Wheel
- Jayco North Point Fifth Wheel
#1. Grand Design Solitude Fifth Wheel
Puts the ‘Grand’ in Grandeur
View All Grand Design Solitude Fifth Wheel Floorplans!
No. of Floorplans | Unloaded Weight | Sleeps | Length |
---|---|---|---|
21 | 12100-14200 lbs | 4-6 | 34-42 feet |
Why we recommend the Grand Design Solitude fifth wheel: Grand Design’s collection isn’t chocked full of fifth wheels, but most of them are good enough, like the Grand Design solitude which has 21 floorplans that cover a narrow range of 12100 to 14200 pounds but that makes all of them quite durable. They’re also roomy since the maximum sleeping capacity is 6 people on a 42-feet floorplan!
Now onto the good stuff. The Solitude has it all: The oversized kitchen pantry and the dishwasher prep for those on cooking duty or the furnace and double tri-fold sofas if you’re planning on enjoying a cup of coffee and reading a book. The list doesn’t end there, as with all of its features that also have a ton of options to add and upgrade its features to truly make this luxury fifth wheel your own! Take a look at the Solitude 300GK and the Solitude 379FLS!
Key Features:
- 21 different floor plans available
- Oversized kitchen pantry
- Dishwasher prep on certain floorplans
- Tri-fold hide-a-bed sofa (double sofas on certain floorplans)

No. of Floorplans | Unloaded Weight | Sleeps | Length |
---|---|---|---|
20 | 13800-19800 lbs | 4-6 | 34-44 feet |
Why we recommend DRV Luxury Suites Mobile Suites fifth wheel: DRV Luxury Suites definitely lived upto its name due to its collection of some of the finest luxury RVs out there. It’s a safe bet when one considers that its mobile suites is an excellent choice for this list due to its sheer number of floorplans and length although it still doesn’t have a ton of versatility on the weight and capacity side similar to the solitude. We recommend checking out the Mobile Suites 32RS3 and the Mobile Suites 43 Atlanta.
Feature-wise, one look at key features below or a full gander on the main page (link above) and it’s clear that this is a luxury RV you just cannot overlook in your options. Every aspect of the travel trailer from the kitchen to the bedroom is just full of useful and luxurious features which can be improved upon with its extensive list of options such as a wifi ranger wireless router, an LED TV on the outside and a few interior and cabinetry decor options as well!
Key Features:
- 20 different floor plans available!
- Frameless thermopane windows
- Full underbed storage
- Décor options
- Soft-touch vinyl ceiling, including interior slide-out ceilings
- Frameless tinted safety glass windows

No. of Floorplans | Unloaded Weight | Sleeps | Length |
---|---|---|---|
18 | 13482-14938 lbs | 4-6 | 36-41 feet |
Why we recommend the Redwood RV Redwood fifth wheel: As mentioned above, Redwood has only ever made one RV so far, and it has rocked the markets, to say the least. The Redwood has been an absolute favorite of both users and critics with its stylish exterior and luxurious interior, more on that below. It’s not very different from any other fifth wheel choices here: 18 floorplans which roughly weigh between 13,000 and 14,000 pounds and a maximum sleeping capacity of 6 people. Our personal favorite are the Redwood 340RL and the Redwood 388ES!
Outside, you’ll notice the sleek look with some of the features that can be quite useful if you’re into spending time outside such as the carefree electric awning and the exterior docking station with all the hookups. Of course, if you prefer to spend some time indoors it will get quite comfortable and grand thanks to the sheer design and convenience features added ranging from USB ports to the in-command automation system. Top all of that with a few optional expansions, and you have a pretty sweet rig on your hands that is definitely an awesome choice when it comes to luxury fifth wheels!
Key Features:
- 18 different floor plans available
- Shower skylight
- In-command automation system
- i-cool gel foam king mattress
- USB ports through out unit
- Day/night roller shades

#4. Forest River Cardinal Fifth Wheel
Suitable For Beginners, A Treat For Modders!

No. of Floorplans | Unloaded Weight | Sleeps | Length |
---|---|---|---|
7 | 12201-14446 lbs | 4-6 | 34-41 feet |
Why we recommend the Forest River Cardinal fifth wheel: Amongst the myriad of different fifth wheels that Forest River has, we found the Caridinal to be one of the best brands when it comes to luxury fifth wheels. It’s not very different from the other choices with slight lack of floorplans but is otherwise the same as the Solitude and the Mobile Suites. We recommend checking out these floorplans: Cardinal 3250RL and Cardinal 3825FL.
As far as features go, we were quite impressed with what this fifth wheel can provide despite its comparatively low price tag. Apart from the features you can see below, there are lots of others which are worth noting such as the crown molding cabinet accents and the full height hanging warderobe. And, of course, you can improve on these as well through options such an extra dinette chair or a dishwasher. In other words, the Cardinal is a fifth wheel you should absolutely consider as a good candidate or at least a reference of a good luxury fifth wheel when purchasing a new one!
Key Features:
- 7 different floor plans
- Beauflor® linoleum flooring
- King Bed, premium, innerspring mattress
- Wired and framed for second and third A/C
- Three seat leather rear sofa with hide-a-bed
- 52-inch TV in living area and 32-inch TV in bedroom

No. of Floorplans | Unloaded Weight | Sleeps | Length |
---|---|---|---|
9 | 12405-14200 lbs | 4-9 | 38-43 feet |
Why we recommend Jayco North Point fifth wheel: The Jayco North Point is not only a good luxury fifth wheel, it’s also a great overall fifth wheel brand as we have featured it on a few of our other top 5 lists as well. Once again there isn’t a huge difference in weights amongst individual floorplans but the something like the North Point 375BHS is a solid choice if you have more people tagging along. Of course, it also has floorplans like the North Point 381DLQS which don’t have a lot of sleeping capacity but are still wider than 40 feet making it quite comfortable!
As we’ve mentioned before, the North Point has a lot of things that makes it a more of a multi-purpose travel trailer than anything else. Tailgating? It has marine grade speakers and outside grill prep. Comfort and luxury? The hardwood fascia and walk-in closet (amongst other features) will let you live easy. Unsatisfied? It has tons of options for further improvement such as adding a second and even a third AC! All in all, the North Point is one of the best luxury fifth wheels out there!
Key Features:
- 9 different floor plans available
- Wide-stance front landing gear
- Stor-Galore pass-through basement storage
- Dual exterior marine-grade speakers
- Minimum 40,000-BTU furnace
- Outside grill prep
