Sunset Park RV Lightweight Travel Trailers for Sale

Sunset Park RV was founded in 2007 in Shipshewana, Indiana by Merle Schmucker, and it is one of the smaller, more hands-on builders in the towable business — nearly its entire workforce comes from the local Amish community, and it builds in low volume compared with the Thor and Forest River giants. The whole lineup is towable and unusually light: the SunRay teardrops and mini trailers all come in under about 2,400 pounds and well under 17 feet, light enough to tow honestly behind a midsize SUV, crossover, or even some four-cylinder cars, while the Sun Lite line stretches the same idea into livable single-axle trailers — bunkhouse, rear-bath, Murphy-bed, and toy-hauler plans — that still stay under roughly 3,500 pounds. A retro-flavored Sun Lite LTD line adds front-kitchen and dinette layouts with a vintage look. The honest appeal is real: these are simple, walkable-roof, aluminum-sided trailers that tow easily and cost far less than the typical travel trailer, and owners consistently praise the towing, the value, and the personal feel of a small builder. The honest caveat is just as real: the review base is thin (only about 15 owner reviews across the whole brand on RV Insider), build quality is the soft spot, and there are scattered but serious reports of water intrusion, trim falling off, and at least one axle failure, plus warranty and customer-service complaints that come with a tiny company. Below is a current towable range with real specs, real floor plans, and a candid read on what owners praise and what they warn about — so you can shop a Sunset Park trailer for sale knowing exactly what you are getting.

Here's the part the lot won't tell you: the best Sunset deals are usually two to four years old. Let the first owner eat the steep early depreciation, then buy a trailer that's already been shaken down, with the bugs sorted and the records to prove it. That's exactly the kind of unit our RV buyer's agents hunt for, and we run an independent inspection on every one before you wire a dollar. Already own one and ready to move on? We'll list and sell it through our RV broker service for the retail number it's worth — not the wholesale gutting a dealer offers on trade.
