01 What makes it unique
The Hideout 230BH is a front-queen bunkhouse with rear double-over-double bunks, a booth dinette and a jackknife sofa — a 27-foot travel trailer aimed at families who want maximum sleeping space at the lowest dual-axle weight. It sleeps up to nine with double-over-double rear bunks, a convertible booth dinette and a jackknife sofa, while the walkaround front queen keeps the parents separate; a 10.7-cubic-foot 12-volt refrigerator and an air-fryer convection microwave are unusual at this price.
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 4,776 pounds dry against a 6,500-pound GVWR it leaves 1,724 pounds of cargo capacity, and the dry tongue weight is 625 pounds. A 10.7 cu ft refrigerator and 15K BTU air conditioning round out the equipment.
A figure worth stating plainly: Dry weight (4,776 lb shipping) and the carrying capacity (1,724 lb) are Keystone-published; GVWR is their sum, 6,500 lb, a round manufacturer figure, and Camping World corroborates the 4,776-lb dry. MSRP is shown dealer-quoted: Camping World lists $30,310 while other dealers list roughly $36,150 to $36,830, so no single published base price is asserted. At 4,776 pounds it is the lightest profiled dual-axle Hideout. 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 families who want maximum sleeping space at the lowest dual-axle weight, the 230BH is a well-targeted pick within the Keystone value stack.

03 The Hideout floorplan family
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.

Figures for profiled plans are verified against RVUSA structured spec records (2026); dry weight and MSRP, where RVUSA omits them, are from Keystone factory listings and dealers, with GVWR derived as dry plus payload and flagged where the dry figure is a near-variant. Options affect final weights — always confirm against the unit's own weight sticker.
04 What owners & reviewers report
Front-queen bunkhouse
A front-queen double-over-double bunkhouse at a genuinely light dry weight: a walkaround queen up front, four bunks at the rear and a 10.7-cubic-foot fridge in under 28 feet, with the line's roomiest sleeping count.
Built for families who want maximum sleeping space at the lowest dual-axle weight
It sleeps up to nine with double-over-double rear bunks, a convertible booth dinette and a jackknife sofa, while the walkaround front queen keeps the parents separate; a 10.7-cubic-foot 12-volt refrigerator and an air-fryer convection microwave are unusual at this price.
Verify the loaded tongue weight before you tow
Keystone publishes tongue weight as a pre-production dry estimate; real loaded tongue weight runs higher and lands on the tow vehicle's payload. Weigh the loaded trailer and check it against your truck's rating before relying on the brochure figure.
On the weight figures
Dry weight (4,776 lb shipping) and the carrying capacity (1,724 lb) are Keystone-published; GVWR is their sum, 6,500 lb, a round manufacturer figure, and Camping World corroborates the 4,776-lb dry. MSRP is shown dealer-quoted: Camping World lists $30,310 while other dealers list roughly $36,150 to $36,830, so no single published base price is asserted. At 4,776 pounds it is the lightest profiled dual-axle Hideout.
05 How it compares
The larger front-bedroom bunkhouse — a roomier layout and a bigger pantry, heavier and longer.
A steel-framed family bunkhouse — a bigger payload and a U-dinette, similar family sleeping.
An ultra-lite front-bedroom bunkhouse — comparable weight on a laminated build.
