2026 Springdale286BHU

The Springdale 286BHU is a bunkhouse with a U-shaped dinette and an outside kitchen — a 33-foot travel trailer aimed at families who want a steel-framed bunkhouse with a big cargo margin. Its 2,775-pound payload (on heavier axles) is among the largest in the value stack, valuable when a full family loads up.

It carries Springdale's value build — a powder-coated I-beam steel frame with stamped cross-members and outriggers, laminated sidewalls and a walkable roof membrane, with a 15,000-BTU ducted air conditioner standard, on tandem axles. At 6,825 pounds dry against a 9,600-pound GVWR it leaves 2,775 pounds of cargo capacity, and the dry tongue weight is 870 pounds. A 10 cu ft refrigerator and 15K BTU air conditioning round out the equipment.

A figure worth stating plainly: MSRP is not published on RVUSA for this plan; dry weight (6,825 lb) is from RVingPlanet and reconciles with the large RVUSA cargo capacity (GVWR 9,600). 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 a steel-framed bunkhouse with a big cargo margin, the 286BHU is a well-targeted pick within the Keystone value stack.

Keystone's Springdale is a broad lightweight line built on a powder-coated I-beam steel frame with a 15,000-BTU ducted air conditioner standard.
