When it comes to RV living, few topics spark as much passion as the great bed debate.

After all, your bed isn’t just a place to sleep—it’s your sanctuary after a long day of adventure, your fortress against campground chaos, and sometimes, the only thing standing between you and a grumpy spouse at 6 AM.

That’s why we asked our readers in our newsletter:

“What kind of bed setup do you prefer in your RV?”

The responses were loud, clear, and—let’s be honest—a little predictable.

If you missed this poll, don’t worry! Make sure you’re subscribed and vote next time so your preferences can help shape future results (and so we can finally get some love for bunk beds).

The Results Are In: Royalty Wins, Bunks Get the Snub

The people have spoken, and they’ve spoken in favor of luxury.

  • A whopping 64% of voters crowned the King Bed as their RV sleep setup of choice.
  • While 36% settled (literally) for the Queen Bed.
  • As for Bunk Beds and Convertible Dinettes? Well, they got a big, fat 0%—ouch.

It seems RVers would rather perform a three-point turn in a Walmart parking lot than give up their spacious sleeping quarters.

Why King Beds Rule the Road

Let’s be real: If you’re going to live the RV life, you might as well do it like royalty. King beds offer sprawling space for starfish sleeping, midnight snack stashes, and the occasional argument over who stole the covers. Plus, after a day of hiking, kayaking, or just trying to back into a campsite without yelling, you deserve a bed that doesn’t make you feel like you’re sleeping in a shoebox.

Queen Beds: The Practical (But Slightly Resented) Runner-Up

The 36% who voted for Queen beds are clearly the responsible ones. They understand that RVs require some level of compromise—like sacrificing a few inches of mattress real estate for extra storage or, you know, being able to walk to the bathroom without performing a gymnastics routine. But let’s be honest: No one loves a Queen bed. They tolerate it, like slow Wi-Fi or the sound of your neighbor’s generator at 5 AM.

Bunk Beds & Dinettes: The Unwanted Stepchildren of RV Sleeping

The fact that 0% of voters chose bunk beds or convertible dinettes speaks volumes. Bunk beds? Too much “summer camp nostalgia.” Convertible dinettes? Too much “I woke up with a table leg in my rib.” It seems RVers would rather sleep on a pile of dirty laundry than deal with the hassle of transforming their dining area into a bed every night. And honestly? We get it.

Final Thoughts: Why the King Reigns Supreme

So why did the King bed dominate the poll? Simple: Comfort trumps convenience in the RV world. When you’re on the road, your bed is your only constant—your home within a home.

And if given the choice between a luxurious sleep haven and a space-saving setup that feels like a glorified air mattress, RVers will choose the King every time. (Sorry, bunk beds. Maybe next life.)
