Anyway, I have my second Casita and seriously feel that the Casita is far better in construction that the Scamp . (Don t want to hurt anyone s feelings) For one thing, the Casita discount car rental in europe is 100% Fiberglass top and bottom where the Scamp has a Plywood floor. It wouldn discount car rental in europe t be a mistake to get either, in my opinion, but I d go for the Casita if you have a choice. If you are buying new, then the Escape is where I d look first because I think they are the best of the lot and best bang for the buck at this point.
Susan, it really wouldn t matter which trailer any of us like, it depends upon your financial situation, needs and wants. Plus the tow rating for your tug to consider too. There s a recent discount car rental in europe topic on this very discussion. Rather than reiterate the same story, start by clicking here to read: 16 ft scamp vs casita
I have owned both, 16 Scamp, and now a 17 sd casita. If you are picking 16 to 16 , it s a tie, price would be deciding factor. But the 17 SD is roomier and a little more modern. My vote would then go with the 17 SD. For 4 people, discount car rental in europe my opinion, too small! For 2 people very practical. We are now faced with a third person, our granddaughter, and I am scrambling to find something bigger.
Scamp makes their 16 as both a front bathroom model, and a side bathroom model. Normally with fiberglass interior furniture, to get bunk-beds they would be across the front, with the smaller bathroom on the side across from the entry door. However, they are very accommodating when it comes to building their Custom Deluxe version with wood interior, discount car rental in europe and I ll bet that you could get a front bathroom Scamp with side bunk-beds if you ordered one of those. That would probably discount car rental in europe be more expensive, though.
A point not touched upon here is the features � for this discussion let�s use the Casita 16� and the Scamp 16�. The base Casita has more features standard and at the same time it is priced discount car rental in europe higher while the buyer of a new base Scamp will only add optional features that they desire. The buyer of the Scamp can end up with an egg with features customized for their desire, often at a lesser cost than a full-featured Casita.
Now, fast-forward discount car rental in europe a few years when both eggs are put up for sale. The second buyer is more apt to find the features they want in the Casita than in the Scamp that was �customized� for the first buyer.
Someone already pointed out that Casita uses the space where their front bunk/gaucho sofa sits to install a bathroom/washroom, cutting the sleeping space to just two cozy sleepers in the dinette, discount car rental in europe I d like to make some alternate suggestions.
The first is that you consider setting the kids up with a tent! That way you d have sleeping space for as many as you have tents for, and kids can bring a friend along, there ll be privacy for two adults (face the tent flaps outward . . . they won t see the trailer rocking), and still have a toilet/privacy space. And, since te tents don t have to serve as your primary shelter they can be smaller, cheaper, easier to put up dome tents that the kids can retreat to to play games with their friends while the adults relax.
If you want small and do insist on sleeping discount car rental in europe with the little discount car rental in europe angels, perhaps a Casita without a privacy room and one of those pop-up tent enclosures designed for a porta-pot erected just outside would do the job? Otherwise I think only Scamp offers the the options you re asking for. If you re willing to move up in size to one of their 5th wheel units (just 19 long, it s actually a 16 trailer with a 5th wheel loft added to the front of the trailer) you can sleep six. and the loft area can be used as a comfortable playspace discount car rental in europe on rainy days when no one s sleeping discount car rental in europe there.
In my search for an egg, for various reasons I had put the Casita ahead of the Scamp, but was looking at the Escape 17 as well. I jumped on the Escape 19 when it was announced though. I would look at the Escape offerings as well if you are thinking of buying new, they used are quite hard to come by. Your US dollar works in your favour there, though you would have a bit of a travel to pick it up.
To add to Peter s idea. When we had little kids and traveled with a tent trailer, we would always set up a tent, it was a great playhouse for the kids during the day, and when they went to bed it was our place to play. Much more stable then the trailer.
Current Scamp models have OSB flooring with a resin coating on the underside, older ones probably are plywood. There are advantages and disadvantages for both fully enclosed and plain bottom undersides. In the final analysis I think it comes down to personal aesthetics, not one undercarriage approach discount car rental in europe being superior to the other.
