Destination trailers have a reputation for being massive in size, making them a challenge to tow but extremely spacious and plush. But the Forest River Cherokee Timberwolf 20OG breaks that stereotype to a degree, offering a smaller model that still offers plenty of room and lots of amenities. Don’t get us wrong, this is still an RV that is designed to stay in one place most of the time, but as you’ll see in the video above, it is also more approachable than some of the other options in this fast-growing space.

So, just how “small” is the Cherokee Timberwolf 20OG? It measures 35′ 8″ end to end and has a GVWR of 11,275 lbs. Those are still respectable numbers, of course, but much smaller than most other destination trailers on the market. But as noted above, the rig doesn’t lack for space. In addition to the primary bedroom—which features a king-size bed—this unit has not one, but two lofted sleeping areas. The largest of those is located up a flight of stairs and has a queen bed and a fireplace, plus additional room for twin mattress. The second loft is above the outdoor porch in the rear, with space for an additional guest.
Other stand-out features include a high-top table with free-standing chairs, a comfy hide-a-bed couch, and a bathroom with a porcelain toilet that is separate from the residential-size shower. The kitchen includes a three-burner stove, a 21″ oven, microwave, an enormous refrigerator, and an undermount stainless steel sink. The trailer is also quipped with a dishwasher and a washer/dryer combo unit.

As you watch the video walk-through of this RV, there are a couple of things to note. First, there is a lot of onboard storage with cabinets, wardrobes, a linen closet, and a pantry. Also, it is important to recognize that this destination trailer doesn’t have any slide-outs. That further reduces the amount of floor space compared to other models, but also helps keep weight to a minimum and eliminates the worry of a slide failure or having to do regular slide maintenance.
Despite being smaller and lacking slides, the Timberwolf 20OG still feels open and expansive. Large windows, a tall ceiling, and a 96″ exterior width help the trailer to feel more like a vacation cottage rather than an RV. And thanks to the rear porch and outdoor-powered awnings, the living space extends nicely to the outdoor, too. And if you’re not bringing your entire crew, the lofted space can be used in more versatile ways, such as storage compartments or a game room, giving the rig an even more homey feel.
