If you are interested in a small travel trailer, we recommend considering an A-frame camper. These small campers are a great option if you’re on a budget but don’t want to sacrifice quality.
A-frame campers (also called A-frame travel trailers) are comfortable to travel in and have a wide range of sizes — ranging from models that sleep just two people, to the larger models that can sleep a family of four.
A-frame travel trailers’ smaller size also makes it easier to set up while camping. This small footprint also comes in handy at home when you’re storing the camper.
Whatever your reason is for being interested in an A-frame trailer, take a look at these brands below to get an idea of what might be best for you!
If you are looking for an A-frame camper, Forest River has a couple of different options to check out. All of their different campers offer the necessities, like a kitchen, sleeping and dining area, and bathroom.
Rockwood Hard Side Series: A122
This is going to be your most basic a-frame camper from Forest River. It includes all of the necessities that I mentioned above, as well as a cabinet, exterior storage, and a gas grill. Camping World of Richmond has generously created a video review of this camper:
Along with the A122, two additional models offer more perks
Rockwood Hard Side High Wall Series
As the name suggests, the walls of this a-frame camper are going to be a bit taller, which is important to keep in mind when towing. This model is similar to the Hard Side Series, although it offers a bit more space and more exterior storage:
Rockwood A192HW
This is the most basic model of the Hard Side High Wall series. It offers a flip-up bed with storage, kitchen, dinette, cabinet, and external storage in the front of the trailer. Along with the A192HW model, there are 4 additional models with more perks.

Aliner offers up a very wide range of options when it comes to A-frames. You can easily find budget-friendly options that only provide the essentials or the more luxurious models that offer a lot of space and amenities. Aliner is widely considered one of the best in the A-frame industry and is known for high-quality building materials and comfortable interiors.

Summary
Whatever your reason for buying an A-frame camper, there are some great options out there. They are easy on your budget but still offer great quality on the road. Their smaller size makes them easy to set up when you are ready to camp and easy to disassemble when you head home.
An A-frame trailer is also much easier to store and maintain than its larger RV counterparts.
