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.

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.
