The Surveyor 221ST makes a compelling case for expandable trailers by combining genuine livability with a compact footprint. The barreled ceiling stretches to 82.5 inches, so it doesn't feel like a tent inside, and the residential Queen bed, ducted heating, and fiberglass shower push it well past "camping trailer" territory. A heated and fully enclosed underbelly means the Surveyor 221ST handles shoulder-season trips without babying, and the extra-large pass-through storage earns its keep on longer hauls. Forest River's Surveyor line has a reputation for solid value and good towing manners, and most owners find it a practical, capable unit after minor warranty fixes in the first season.
Other expandable trailers floor plans (around 22 ft 7 in), similar in size and price to the Surveyor 221ST.
