What is a Tent Trailer?

A tent trailer is simply a compact bumper pull trailer that expands into a tent. It’s small enough by design to be pulled by nearly all vehicle types and can be easily placed out of the way when it’s not being used.

Why Choose a Tent Trailer?

The great thing about tent trailers is that they are compact, easy to use, and versatile enough to be taken to any campsite. If you like exploring off-grid locations, tent trailers can handle rougher terrain and are compact enough to navigate through narrow roadways. They’re also great because they still provide sheltered sleeping quarters but off the ground, unlike a traditional tent. 

Who Would Enjoy a Tent Trailer?

When you think of tent trailers, you definitely won’t think of many amenities. Some tent trailers may have a table and two or three spaces for sleeping mats, but you won’t see kitchens or restrooms in these layouts. 

Tent trailers are best for individuals who enjoy low-maintenance camping and travel. They can be perfect for campsites that offer shower houses and other amenities or great for anyone who likes to “rough it.” If you’re someone who wants the option to turn on the heat or air conditioning and make a quick meal in the microwave at the campsite, a tent trailer may not be for you.
