Forest River Rockwood Ultra lite travel trailer exterior
 

The picture above shows the model 2604.  The Rockwood is built with a fully laminated aluminum frame (floor, sidewall, & roof). Insulation factors R-7 side wall, R-12 floor and R-14 roof. 
Forest River says: "When the weekend comes and you're ready for adventure, Rockwood rises to the challenge. Rockwood travel trailers and 5th wheels turn every outing into a party. These fun-inspired units are designed with family-friendly features that make your time together a celebration."

We show 2 pictures of the 2604 interior below.  The first shows the living area looking towards the bedroom. The large slide is shown on the left; this provides a lot of space and a real feeling of spaciousness.  You can see the layout on the floorplans lower down this page.

Forest River have created a wide range of floorplans

for the Rockwood ultra lite travel trailer

The 2304S model (23'8"), one slide (all models have one slide) with a 60x74 flip queen bed. The 2501SS (27'1") has a queen bed and bunk beds. The 2601SS (29'3") has a long slide with a queen bed and a nice bunk arrangement. The 2603 (27'1"), the 2604 and the 2607 (both 29'3") both are without bunks but with a really spacious open arrangement. The 2701 is the longest model at 31'9" with queen bed and bunks and a lot of space taking advantage of the extra length.

witherigwe purchased a 2009 rockwood minilite new from dealer then they went out of business due to fdic closeing the bank they used for floorplaning. so far very happy with the camper. but dont like the smell. it isnt like a new car smell and can't get it to go away used everything under the sun any suggestions?
BrighamWe have the 2007 model Forest River 2502. Real good deal with all the options about $15K. We pull with our Nissan rated at 5000 lbs towing. no problems plenty of power.
pdqAlways nervous buying something new! Just bought the Rockwood mini lite 1809. Our first trailer was a tent trailer (Jayco 806), which had very good ratings. Had only minor issues and overall was an excellent trailer. Hope the 1809 is as good!
Greg HWe have a 2007 Forest River Rockwood Lite. This is our first RV and we've been very happy with it. The bunk beds work fine and it's perfect for a family of 4. No real problems and it tows well. We've had a few minor issues dealt with by the dealer and they are not easy to deal with but Forest River are very helpful when you talk to them. I would certainly buy Forest River again but I would choose a different dealer.
