2027 Forest River Arctic Wolf 285OPT

This 2027 Forest River Cherokee Arctic Wolf 285OPT fifth wheel is a family layout in stock now at Couch’s RV Nation. It is on our lot and available for delivery. It was built with the rear bunk room, and the photos show every bunk in place. It also has a second 15K air conditioner in the bedroom.

That is the advantage of buying a unit that already exists. You don’t wait on a factory build or wonder how the options came out. What you see in the photos is the exact Arctic Wolf you would tow home, finished in the Mocha decor.

What is a fifth wheel? It is a towable RV that couples to a hitch in a pickup bed, so part of its weight rides over the truck’s rear axle. On this unit, the raised front section holds the bedroom, and a step leads down to the main living floor.

Walk through it from the front. The queen bedroom has overhead cabinets, a wardrobe and lift-up storage under the bed, and the photos show ceiling vents for that second air conditioner. The bath sits on the roadside with a walk-in shower behind a black-framed glass door. A porcelain toilet, a marble-look vanity top and a skylight finish the room.

The kitchen runs along the curb wall. The photos show an L-shaped sink counter with a workstation sink and a pull-down faucet, a 3-burner range with an oven and an overhead microwave. A tall black 12V refrigerator stands beside light cabinetry with black hardware. Across the aisle, the roadside slide holds a tufted tri-fold sofa and a booth dinette with a table. A TV and an electric fireplace sit in the entertainment center beside the bunk-room door.

People who ask which RV gives the kids their own space usually want a door they can close, and this 285OPT has one. A dark sliding barn door closes off the rear bunk room. Inside are a lower and an upper bunk on one side and a flip-up upper bunk over a booth dinette on the other. A two-door dresser on the rear wall doubles as a TV stand. Count the queen, the sofa, both dinettes and all three bunks, and it sleeps 14. That is room for the whole family, plus cousins.

Outside, an exterior compartment holds a mini fridge over a griddle, so outdoor cooking happens right at the picnic table. That means fewer trips in and out for drinks and utensils. A large pass-through storage bay up front takes the chairs, hoses and gear. The white fiberglass sides carry black and blue graphics.

The manufacturer lists the 285OPT at 34 feet 3 inches long, 96 inches wide and 13 feet 1 inch tall. Published dry weight, the empty unit before water, propane and gear, is 8,578 lbs. Pin weight is 1,570 lbs, and cargo capacity is 2,007 lbs. Tanks hold 70 gallons of gray water and 35 gallons of black. Check your tow vehicle’s ratings, including payload, against the dry weight plus everything you load.

It fits family camping weekends at the lake or the state park, and it makes an affordable way to start camping with a big crew. Because it’s already on the lot, your first trip can be on the calendar soon after delivery.
