About this RV

This R-Pod model 179 is highlighted by a rear kitchen, and large slide out u-shaped dinette. This Forests River travel trailer sleeps three or four when converting the dinette to sleeping space along with the queen size bed up front. As you step inside you will find a pantry to your immediate right for storage needs, and to your left there is a two burner cook-top, a single sink, and plenty of counter space. You will also find ample storage with lower cupboards and drawers. The refrigerator is straight in through the entry door within the slide out that also features a 75" x 45" u-shaped dinette. Along the curb side you will find a convenient wet bath featuring a toilet, shower, and corner sink. There is a wardrobe for clothing storage just outside the bathroom along the curb side between the bath and the front queen size bed. At night sleep comfortable and awaken refreshed for a brand new day. There is a spot for a TV to be added if you like, plus so much more! On the outside there is storage in the front along the curb side beneath the bed for all of your outdoor camping gear as well.
