RVs for Hunters | Truck Campers, Toy Haulers & Base Camps

The Ultimate Hunting Setup: 3 Options

At Leisure Days RV Group, we know every hunt is different. Here is how to choose the right rig for your season:

• The Truck Camper (The Scout): This is the gold standard for solo hunters or pairs. Because the camper sits in the truck bed, your hitch is free.

  • The Advantage: You can tow a utility trailer with your ATV, Side-by-Side, or a boat behind you. Plus, with 4x4 engaged, a truck camper can go anywhere your pickup can go.

• The Toy Hauler (The Lodge): If you have a larger group, this is the mobile lodge.

  • The Advantage: The rear "Garage" is multi-purpose. During the drive, it holds the ATVs. At camp, it becomes a mudroom for wet boots, a hanging area for game (if equipped with heavy-duty anchors), or a sleeping bunk for the crew. The ramp door also makes loading heavy coolers effortless.

• The Rugged Small Trailer (The Bunkhouse): Units like the Jayco Jay Feather Micro are built with higher ground clearance and off-road tires. They fit down narrow trails and provide a warm, hard-sided place to sleep without the bulk of a big fifth wheel.

Critical Features for Late Season

Hunting season often means freezing temperatures. Don't get caught in a summer camper.

• Generator / Solar: You will likely be off-grid. Ensure your unit has an onboard generator (common in Toy Haulers) or a robust solar package to keep the furnace fan running all night.

• Insulation: Look for "Four Season" or "Arctic" packages. You need a Heated and Enclosed Underbelly to prevent your water tank from freezing into a solid block of ice.

• Propane Capacity: Standard 20lb tanks run out fast in November. Look for units with 30lb or 40lb tanks so you don't wake up shivering at 3:00 AM.

Top Models for the Field

• Northern Lite (Truck Campers): Lightweight hard-side or pop-up campers that offer impressive insulation and quick setup times.

• Forest River Geo Pro: Small, solar-equipped, and lifted. These can be towed by mid-size trucks and squeeze into tight tree cover easily.

Ready for Opening Day?

• Measure Your Quad: Before buying a Toy Hauler, measure your ATV's width and height (especially if it has a roll cage). Bring those numbers to the dealership.

• Check the Payload: If buying a Truck Camper, check your truck's yellow door sticker. Wet campers plus gear add up fast—you might need air bags or suspension upgrades.

• Filter for Utility: Use the filters above to find "Toy Haulers" or "Truck Campers" to build your perfect hunting rig.
