Scamp 16' Travel Trailer
See reader's comments and experiences at bottom of page

"Lightweight and easy to tow - a small trailer with a lot of options - easily set up with bathroom arrangements"

Roaming Times is the world's #1 RV review site  |   Search the RV reviews  

Important considerations:
Exterior length 16'0", Exterior width 6'8", Exterior height 7'10"
Interior height 6'3", Sleeps 1 to 4
Fiberglass construction, Approx. weight: 1750 lbs
MSRP from $10,995 plus options (3/09)

This is a small trailer with a lot of options. The Scamp 16' provides more counter and storage space than the 13' (see RoTi review here), and the 16' can be easily set up with two bathroom and shower options.
Scamp says "You decide what your camping and traveling needs are, then choose which options you want. There are many optional items to choose from including appliances, layouts, extra lights. Any of the sales staff can help you get your trailer with the items you need"

The picture below shows the available front bunk option (see the floorplans below). A side bathroom option allows the trailer to sleep four people, while a larger front bathroom option replaces the sofa/bunk bed:

Scamp says:

Durable, Lightweight Travel Trailers - Scamp trailers are built to order, lightweight and aerodynamic in design. We’ve been building small travel trailers since 1972 and many are still being enjoyed today. The lightweight, hard shell fiberglass travel trailer design is very durable and easy to tow and maneuver.

Towable by Small Cars - Our small campers are very economical; especially important with today’s high fuel costs. All three size Scamps have been designed to be towed by small cars, SUVs, mini vans, and trucks. The aerodynamic design assures high fuel efficiency and most people can tow the Scamp with a vehicle they already own.

For sale and wanted - see forum below
