RV life is growing increasingly popular, with many people opting to drop off the grid and spend more time out in nature. Whether you want to transition to full-time RV living or go camping every once in a while, choosing the best camper can be challenging — especially when you’re on a budget.

Fortunately, you still have some great options. Here are a few of the best RVs for under $10,000.

Lightweight: Forest River Flagstaff E-Pro

If you’re on the hunt for a lightweight camper, it’s hard to go wrong with the Forest River Flagstaff E-Pro travel trailer. It weighs slightly less than 3,000 pounds and starts at $9,995. The Forest River Flagstaff sleeps two to four people and ranges in length from 11 to 21 feet. 

You have seven layouts to choose from, but only four cost less than $10,000. That’s still plenty of options, particularly because this camper offers many enticing features. They include roof and ground solar pre-wire, external speakers, and a WiFi ranger.

Vintage: Riverside Retro

Campers can be pretty utilitarian, but that doesn’t mean they have to sacrifice charm. Starting at $9,500, the Riverside Retro travel trailer captures early campers‘ vintage vibes. There are a whopping 18 floor plans to choose from, giving you plenty of options to design yours just the way you like it.

Depending upon the floor plan, the camper weighs 1,937 to 6,100 pounds and can sleep two to six people. Features include spacious cabinets, aluminum cage construction, and radius windows and doors. You can also choose from many add-on features, such as a birch interior, an exterior grill, and a power awning.

Minimalist: Oregon Trailer Do-Drop

If you want something a little simpler (and more affordable), consider the Oregon Trailer Do-Drop. This teardrop camper starts at $6,150 and weighs 550 to 700 pounds when unloaded. There’s only one floor plan, and it’s fairly small, sleeping one or two people.

Camper Report calls this trailer “very sleek and aesthetically pleasing.” It’s available in widths of either 3.5 or 4 feet, and you can customize it for paved or off-road travel. This is an excellent option if you want a no-frills, lightweight trailer.

Luxurious: BCT Moab Gobi Trailer

But if you prefer frills, don’t worry. The BCT Moab Gobi Trailer starts at $7,995 and comes “packed with essential equipment that you won’t find in just any trailer.” This 13.8-footer long sleeps one to three people.

It boasts an exterior kitchen with a dual-burner camp stove and a fully functional sink. Reviewers also found the sleeping area incredibly comfortable. And they praised the spacious interior, featuring several wood storage cabinets. 

If you want to go off-roading, you’re in luck. This camper comes with off-road tires and an electric brake system. Other features include a 20-pound propane tank, an outdoor shower, a 24-gallon freshwater tank, and an electrical system with LED lighting.

Campers can get pretty expensive, but you still have options when you’re on a budget. Whether you’re looking for a bare-bones RV or something a little more stylish and fun, you can find the perfect one for you if you know where to look. Once you customize an RV to your liking, you’ll be ready to head out into the great outdoors.
