The Best Camper Trailers

A camping trailer should always suit the needs of the owner. Portability and accessibility are important factors in the makeup of a good camping trailer. Camping trailers are often referred to as pop-ups, folding trailers or tent trailers because the base is aluminum and the sides and top are generally canvas that can be folded into the base. Camping trailers are lightweight and can be hauled behind cars, trucks or sports utility vehicles and used in a variety of settings. Most campers choose a trailer that they feel comfortable in and that fits their personality and lifestyle as they travel from location to location.

Clipper Sport by Coachman

Coachman has been serving outdoor enthusiasts since 1964. One camping trailer that offers an array of options at an affordable price is the Clipper Sport. Built with a Dura Tuff roof, this camper is designed to stand the test of time and the harsh elements of nature. A kitchen with a stovetop and small refrigerator in a modular wood cabinet setting becomes the focal point and center of the trailer. Linoleum flooring makes cleanup a breeze. E-Z Glide roll-out bunks sleep up to six people. The seamless outside of this camping trailer offers an attractive and contemporary appearance. An optional furnace will keep you warm on cool nights. Starting at $5,648, the Clipper Sport offers affordability.

Baja by Jayco

The Baja offers a sleek design and plenty of options for a camping trailer. Starting at $20,853, this may be a pricey camping trailer, but its amenities are similar to a traditional pull-behind trailer. This camper has a small pull-out area that features a dinette and booth, while extra-large pull-out beds offer spacious bedding options. A shower and cassette toilet give you the privacy you need when you are away from home. Double propane and extra water tanks assure that you will be set for a lengthy stay at your destination. A kitchen with a sink, stovetop and refrigerator allows you to entertain with ease.

Centennial by Starcraft

Starcraft is renowned for its camping trailers and portability. The Centennial sleeps up to eight adults in a contemporary setting. Fitted with privacy curtains, lights and bed mat heaters, the Centennial caters to its guests. Large counter space and eating areas make entertaining easy. The roof vent makes days and evenings cooler during hot summer months. And there is a small bath and shower with this model, so you get the most out of your camping experience. There is also an optional customer convenience package that includes a water purifier, music sound system and awning. Prices start at $9,500.
