Roaming Times thinks the Heartland North Trail is a terrific travel trailer and with a wide variety of lengths and floorplans to choose from, there is something for most families.  We show typical interior pictures below. 
  
  

 

The picture above shows looking from front to rear and the picture below is from rear to front.:

 
  
"Wide open, spacious floorplans are the norm in the NORTH TRAIL line of ultra light weight towables. While large kitchen slide-outs like this are typically reserved for coaches costing thousands more, this NORTH TRAIL model provides a truly wide-open feel, as well as large base cabinet and overhead storage, over-sized windows and a sofa and dinette that both convert into beds for additional sleeping capacity."
   

 

"This bedroom is typical of most NORTH TRAIL units, featuring a large queen bed, an abundance of overhead cabinets, matching shirt closets, nightstands, and two windows for great ventilation.":

 

"NORTH TRAIL ultra lightweight towables are designed with young families in mind! Just take a look at this model with a convenient dinette built right in the bunkhouse area, as well as an entertainment center, large base cabinet storage for clothes and games and more. The dinette makes into a bed for added sleeping space.":

 

Just some of the standard interior features of the Heartland North Trail: Radius Counter Tops, Monitor Panel in Bathroom, Cable TV Prep, Dual Ducted 13.5 A/C, 12V, AM/FM CD Player,
Raised Panel Overhead Cabinets Doors, Steel Ball-Bearing Drawer Guides - Full Extension, Hi-Rise Kitchen Faucet, Half-Time Convection Oven with Microwave, 9,000 BTU 3-Burner Cooktop, Residential Quality Linoleum Flooring, Power Range Hood w/Light, Double Door Refer, Acrylic Sink, Tub Surround with Built-in Shelves, Hardwood Medicine Cabinet, Foot Flush Toilet, 74" Queen Bed

EricI just bought a 2011 28 BRS. There are no speakers for the stereo in the bedroom and they somehow bypassed the tv speakers with the stereo so it's hard to watch DVD's in bedroom with no sound. Tires are poor quality, beware of blowouts. Cannot hook satellite to cable tv outlet at back of trailer,the outlet is for cable only. If you remove the 12V outlet under the tv and unhook the cable tv coax from the assembly and hook it directly to the tv it will work. Why? Why? Why? I would love to hear the explanation for that. Also the couch should have been hemmed on the bottom as threads keep pulling off the bottom skirting. Otherwise I love the trailer!
SteveI have a 21 foot North Trail. The microwave is not installed very securely. I had to redo the installation to keep it from bouncing out of its mount. Additionaly the rubber lips on the slide out leak occasionally.
RODi am getting ready to purchse the 29BHSS. Can anyone tell me about the quality of this trailer
Don & ErickaI would like to purchase a North Trail but the 280BH is just too long. Does anyone know if the 21FBS is available with the ramp door and fold up bed. I would buy it today if it were available. If you have any info I would appreciate an e-mail at ericka@amassoc.net
freerI just towed home our new 28 ft North Trail with a baic 1/2 ton and could not believe it. It towed better than our 2006 2200LB Bantam flier.Awsome trailer!
USAWe can't wait for our new TT to arrive from the factory- I can not believe all the benefits to owning a North Trail- upscale RVing with low scale pricing! Thank you North Trail
archbarbWe purchased the 2009 26rks for all of the great storage and private bedroom. We looked at many other brands, but the storage, 2" walls, enclosed underbelly, and not having to trade up to 3/4 ton truck sold us. Great product!!!!!
bbWe are the proud new owners of a Heartland 21fbs. We believe you won't find a higher quality ultralite on the market.
djWe looked at the 28RLS at a show last month. We were very impressed with the quality and the fact that it is an ultralite means we can move into a quality 28' without changing tow vehicles.
Ros KI think this is a great RV. I like the ultralite aspect and I particularly like the ramp door access with the 280BH. After reading this I went to a dealer in Durango, CO and looked at what they had. We currently have a Keystone but need something with more facilities for our needs. We need to look at more but the North Trail looks real good.
