The RV has come a long way since its humble beginnings back in 1910 at Madison Square Garden. Back then, the RV wasn’t much more than a bed, toilet, and sink on wheels. Today, RVs can be just as spacious and comfortable as a house!
RVs come in all shapes and sizes, from compact hybrids to luxurious Class A motorhomes and everything in between. So, it’s no surprise that one of the most common questions we get about our RVs is about finding the right size.
Sleeping Space
The first thing we consider when determining the correct RV size for a family is sleeping space. If there’s not enough space for the whole family to sleep, then they’re going to have a pretty miserable experience. This is why we always want to know how many people will be staying in each RV.
Living Space
Sleeping isn’t the only thing people do in an RV. When you’re using an RV as a temporary housing solution, you’ll also be spending time inside the RV completing the activities of daily life such as cooking, helping kids with homework, and enjoying a glass of wine on the couch after a hard day’s work.
To determine the amount of living space a family of four will need, it helps to know the ages of the family members and any accommodations that they may need. For example, an adult family member in a wheelchair will need more space than an infant. We work closely with potential customers to learn as much as possible about the people who will be living in our RV rental solutions. This is why we consistently deliver excellent products and services for our customers, so they can pay it forward to their own.
Ideal RV Size for a Family of 4
25 – 40 feet long
It will depend on many factors inside the RV, such as hidden furniture or storage, to determine the ideal RV size for a family. However, 25 to 40 feet in length seems to be the sweet spot for a family of 4.
Modern RV manufacturers are making their designs increasingly compact, giving them space to add new features. As this practice grows, the ideal RV size for a family of 4 will likely shrink.
