01 What makes it unique
The No Boundaries NB18.7 is a nimble, family-friendly bunkhouse that packs full-feature comfort into a 21-foot-8 body with no slide. It pairs a front queen bed for adults with twin bunks for kids or guests, and a full rear-corner bath adds privacy and convenience at the back. The compact, well-organized layout keeps everything in reach, and a standard outdoor kitchen plus a 14-foot electric awning extend living space outside. It is one of the lightest true bunkhouses in the line — family sleeping at a genuinely towable weight.
At 3,988 pounds unloaded and 21 feet 8 inches, the NB18.7 is among the lightest profiled No Boundaries plans and an easy mid-size-SUV or half-ton tow, with a healthy 1,500-pound cargo capacity for a family loading water and gear. Forest River publishes a 5,488-pound GVWR for this plan directly (it equals the 3,988-pound unloaded weight plus the 1,500-pound cargo capacity exactly), so no derivation is needed. It carries balanced 30/30/30-gallon tanks. Standard equipment is the mandatory C-Series package: a 12V refrigerator, an air-fryer microwave, a 15,000-BTU air conditioner, an on-demand tankless water heater, a 200-watt solar panel with a 30-amp controller and inverter prep, a central vacuum, a power tongue jack and all-terrain tires with TPMS.
Construction is the No Boundaries laminate recipe — Azdel composite panels over an aluminum frame, a block-foam-insulated aluminum floor, a sealed and heated underbelly with a radiant foil barrier and 12V tank pads, and a fiberglass front cap with LED lighting — the same construction tier as Forest River’s r·pod and a step above the metal-sided value lines. An optional Beast Mode package adds an independent suspension, 400 watts of solar and a 2,000-watt inverter. For a family that wants real bunks plus a queen, a full bath and a standard outdoor kitchen at the lowest practical tow weight, the NB18.7 is the compact bunkhouse in the line.

03 Forest River No Boundaries floorplan family
Forest River’s No Boundaries (NoBo) is a rugged, adventure-lightweight travel-trailer line built “exceptionally light weight” to tow behind 4- and 6-cylinder vehicles. The NB18.7 on this page is highlighted; the other profiled plans link to their own pages. Profiled here are breadth-spanning floorplans — from the 20-foot front-queen compact to the 33-foot family bunkhouse with rear double bunks — with the rest of the roster catalogued on the line hub and profiled in demand order. Every No Boundaries plan ships with the mandatory C-Series package: a 12V fridge, a 15,000-BTU air conditioner, a tankless water heater, 200 watts of solar, all-terrain tires with TPMS, a standard outdoor kitchen and an electric awning.

Every No Boundaries plan uses superior laminated construction featuring Azdel composite panels over an aluminum frame, with an aluminum-framed floor, block-foam insulation, a sealed and heated underbelly with a radiant foil barrier and 12V tank pads, and a fiberglass front cap with LED lighting — the same construction tier as Forest River’s r·pod, a step above the metal-sided stick-and-tin value lines. The identity is rugged and adventure-focused rather than aerodynamic: every plan ships with the mandatory C-Series package (a 12V refrigerator, an air-fryer microwave, a 15,000-BTU air conditioner, an on-demand tankless water heater, seamless Surf(X) countertops, a 200-watt solar panel with a 30-amp controller and inverter prep, a central vacuum, a power tongue jack, an electric awning with an LED strip, black-glass entry doors, all-terrain tires with TPMS and a standard outdoor kitchen). An optional Beast Mode package adds an independent suspension, a second 200-watt solar panel (400 watts total), a 2,000-watt inverter, a fresh-water filter and a Maxxair vent cover. Lengths, weights and equipment change with options and model year — always confirm against the unit’s own weight sticker. Additional No Boundaries floorplans are catalogued on the line hub.
04 What owners & reviewers report
Real bunks plus a queen in a light, no-slide body
A front queen for adults and dedicated twin bunks for kids fit into a 21-foot-8 body with no slide to deploy — a genuine family layout at one of the lightest weights in the line.
Among the lightest profiled plans
At 3,988 pounds unloaded the NB18.7 tows behind a mid-size SUV, yet still carries a full rear-corner bath, a standard outdoor kitchen and a 1,500-lb cargo capacity.
GVWR is published directly
Forest River lists a 5,488-lb GVWR for this plan (equal to unloaded weight plus cargo capacity), so no derivation is needed — a complete factory weight record.
Twin bunks suit kids more than adults
The bunks are sized for children or smaller guests — a family with teens or a need for adult-size berths should look at the larger double-bunk plans (NB19.3, NB20.3).
Selling price runs below the placard
Dealer MSRP placards run near $48,000 while selling prices commonly land near $30,000 (Beast Mode units run higher); the figure shown is dealer-typical selling and is flagged.
05 How it compares
A 20-foot front-queen couples’ plan with a central kitchen and rear bath — no bunks, for a couple or small family that does not need dedicated kid berths.
A 24-foot-8 Murphy-bed bunkhouse with larger 44x74 double bunks and an exterior Adventure Door — more sleeping capacity and bigger bunks at a higher weight.
A 26-foot Murphy-bed family bunkhouse with a slide and rear double bunks, sleeping eight — a full family coach with much more room at a higher weight.
