2026 Hideout22MLS

The Hideout 22MLS is a front private king bedroom with a rear kitchen, theater seating and a tri-fold sleeper sofa — a 26-foot travel trailer aimed at couples who want a real king bed in a short, light trailer. A king bed with under-bed storage anchors the front, a waterfall kitchen sink and extra-tall overhead cabinets sit at the rear, and theater seating plus a tri-fold sleeper sofa and a laundry chute round out a couples-first layout that still sleeps six.

It carries the Hideout dual-axle build — laminated filon sidewalls on a powder-coated steel frame, a walkable roof and an enclosed underbelly, on tandem axles. At 5,477 pounds dry against a 7,500-pound GVWR it leaves 2,023 pounds of cargo capacity, and the dry tongue weight is 665 pounds. A 10 cu ft refrigerator and 15K BTU air conditioning round out the equipment.

A figure worth stating plainly: Dry weight (5,477 lb shipping) and the carrying capacity (2,023 lb) are Keystone-published; GVWR is their sum, 7,500 lb, a round manufacturer figure. The standard-features list notes an optional 54-gallon fresh tank, but the published spec field of 46 gallons is used here as the canonical capacity. MSRP is shown dealer-quoted, as Keystone's floorplan page omits a base price. As with every lightweight trailer, the published tongue weight is a pre-production dry estimate — once water, gear and passengers are aboard, real loaded tongue weight runs higher and lands on the tow vehicle's payload, so weigh the loaded trailer and match it to your truck honestly before relying on the brochure number. For couples who want a real king bed in a short, light trailer, the 22MLS is a well-targeted pick within the Keystone value stack.

Keystone's Hideout covers a dual-axle family line and a lighter single-axle line (filed by RVUSA as Hideout Mini, marketed for 2026 as Hideout Sport) for SUV towing. The plan on this page is highlighted; each profiled plan links to its own page. The full Hideout catalog runs to dozens of floorplans — the highest-demand layouts are detailed here and the rest are catalogued on the Hideout hub.

This floorplan carries its water comfortably. A full 46-gallon fresh tank is roughly 19% of the 2,023-pound cargo capacity, leaving the 22MLS with a usable gear budget even when you tow full.

The published dry tongue weight of 665 pounds is 12% of the 5,477-pound dry weight, which sits inside the 10–15% band usually quoted for stable towing. It is still a dry figure: loading the front pass-through and the fresh tank both push it up.

Nothing above changes the ceiling. Loaded to its 7,500-pound GVWR the 22MLS is towing 2,023 pounds more than its 5,477-pound dry figure, and that is the number your vehicle has to be rated for — not the brochure weight.

Tank balance is generous here: 46 gallons of fresh against 39 grey and 39 black, so waste capacity keeps pace with supply and the fresh tank is the constraint that ends a dry stay.

Ranked by GVWR, the 22MLS sits 8 of 10 in the Hideout line: 7,500 pounds against a line that runs from 4,350 to 7,700 pounds. That position is the useful thing to know, because the plans immediately either side of it are the real alternatives.

Either side of it in the same line: Hideout 212RKS matches it exactly at 7,500 lb GVWR; and Hideout 25RDS is 100 pounds heavier at 7,600 lb GVWR.

1 other Hideout plan shares this floorplan’s 7,500 lb GVWR, so the ranking above separates plans that tow to the same ceiling. On a shared chassis the figure that actually differs between them is cargo capacity and where the weight sits, not the rating.

Against the 22MLS: the Coachmen Freedom Express Ultra Lite 245RKS is 2 ft longer and sleeps 2 fewer; the Jay Feather 22BH is 3 ft longer and sleeps 1 more; the Jay Flight 236TH is 2 ft longer and sleeps 2 fewer. Those are differences in the published numbers only — what they cost, how they are built and how they live are separate questions each of those pages answers on its own terms.

Those are the nearest travel trailers from other lines by weight — one per line, picked by proximity on that figure and nothing else. They are listed so the same tow vehicle can be checked against real alternatives, not because they are equivalent inside; layout, build and price diverge sharply across that group.

For scale, the Hideout floorplans profiled here run 3,020 to 6,205 pounds dry and 20 to 31 feet of exterior length across 10 plans. Where a floorplan falls in that spread usually says more about which vehicle can tow it, and which site it fits, than the layout name does.

Every profiled floorplan in this line, with the full weight table, is on the Hideout line hub.

This catalog tracks 18 specification fields per floorplan. Named sources publish 15 of them for the 22MLS. The rest are not shown, because the alternative is reading a figure across from a sibling floorplan or from what the segment usually does — and a number nobody published is worth less than an admitted gap.

Not published for this floorplan: exterior width, interior height, tire specification. If you find one of these in a manufacturer document for this plan, it belongs on this page.

The completeness figure at the foot of this page (88%) measures the same thing on the full field set: it is a measurement of how much this floorplan’s manufacturer publishes, not of how much research went into the page.

How every figure here was sourced and checked is set out on the methodology page.
