01 What makes it unique

The Cherokee Grey Wolf 29NM is a two-room family coach with genuine separation between the adults and the kids. A private front bedroom holds an RV king bed with wardrobes on either side; a separate rear private bunkhouse stacks two single bunks above two sofas with a table that collapses into a double bed; and a walk-through bathroom connects the two, so the bedroom is reachable without crossing the whole trailer. The middle is the living and kitchen area — a large U-shaped dinette and a sofa on the slide, an entertainment center with a fireplace, and a full galley with a pantry — and dual entry doors put one door at the living area and a second at the rear, easing the flow for a big family.

Grey Wolf builds it on a wood-frame body with aluminum sidewall construction, riding on the Cherokee Stable Step, with the widely stocked Black Label trim adding Thermo-Foil Arctic insulation, high-gloss gel-coat sidewalls and frameless tinted automotive glass. Standard equipment includes a 15,000-BTU air conditioner, a 12-volt refrigerator, an air-fryer convection microwave, a tankless water heater, a 15-foot power awning and an outside kitchen with a grill, a mini-fridge and an ice maker. A 52-gallon fresh tank supports family-size water use away from hookups.

At 7,356 pounds dry against an 8,083-pound GVWR it leaves only about 727 pounds of cargo capacity — tight for a nine-sleeper, and the single most important number to respect on this plan: a family that travels with full water, gear and a loaded outside kitchen can reach the GVWR quickly, so deliberate packing and a well-equipped half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck matter here. The factory record does not publish the refrigerator's cubic footage, so it is flagged. For a larger family that wants two separate rooms — a private parents' bedroom and a private kids' bunkhouse — with dual entry at a value-tier price, the 29NM is the Grey Wolf line's two-room family flagship.

Every Cherokee Grey Wolf travel trailer is built on a wood-frame body with aluminum sidewall construction and rides on the Cherokee Stable Step; the Black Label trim adds Thermo-Foil Arctic insulation, gel-coat sidewalls and frameless tinted windows. Lengths, weights and equipment change with options and model year — always confirm against the unit's own weight sticker. Wolf Pup and Wolf Den lightweight spin-offs and the Arctic Wolf fifth wheels are documented separately.

04 What owners & reviewers report

Two separate rooms, parents and kids

A private front king bedroom and a separate rear bunkhouse, joined by a walk-through bath — real separation that open-bunk plans don't give.

Dual entry plus a full outside kitchen

Two entry doors ease the flow for a big family, and the outside kitchen adds a grill, a mini-fridge and an ice maker for cooking out of doors.

Payload is tight — respect the 727 lb

At only ~727 lb of cargo capacity against an 8,083-lb GVWR, full water, gear and a loaded outside kitchen add up fast — weigh it loaded, pack deliberately and tow with a well-equipped truck.

Refrigerator size not published

The factory floorplan record confirms a 12V refrigerator but not its cubic footage; it is shown unverified and excluded from the completeness figure.

Starting MSRP is dealer-dependent

Forest River publishes no single fixed MSRP; advertised US dealer MSRPs cluster around $55,000–58,000 and selling prices run many thousands below. The figure shown is representative and flagged.

05 How it compares

↔ Cross-shop
Cherokee Grey Wolf 29QB

The other 37-foot two-bedroom coach — a separate rear queen bedroom instead of a bunkhouse, a similar length and weight with fewer berths.

↓ Step down
Cherokee Grey Wolf 26KF

The shorter front-kitchen family bunkhouse — lighter and easier to handle, with open bunks rather than a separate bunk room.

↑ Step up
Cherokee Grey Wolf 29TE

The big-bunkhouse flagship with a full outside kitchen — similar length, more open family space, more cargo capacity.
