Listen Later

The Hershey RV Show 2025 did not disappoint! Known as “America’s Largest RV Show,” it’s the place where manufacturers debut their newest models, campers dream about their next upgrade, and adventurers discover innovative features designed to make camping easier and more fun. Girl Camper founder Janine Pettit walked the show floor and shared her favorite finds for every style of camping.

Why the Hershey RV Show Matters

The Hershey RV Show is more than just a showcase of campers—it’s a chance to see what’s next in the RV industry. Whether you love tiny trailers, adventure vans, or truck campers, you’ll find something that sparks new ideas for your camping lifestyle. This year, Janine highlighted models that stand out for their versatility, smart design, and accessibility.

Blue Compass Aurora

One of the first RVs that caught Janine’s eye was the Aurora, a compact trailer available exclusively at Blue Compass RV. At just 13.5 feet long and a little over 2,600 pounds, it’s lightweight but packed with features:

  • A rear kitchen with a dual-burner stove
  • A full bathroom with shower and toilet
  • Clever dinette-to-bed conversion
  • Gas furnace and electric heating options
  • Perfect for state park camping or light off-grid adventures, the Aurora proves that small campers can still offer big comfort.

    Storyteller Overland Beast Mode 2026

    For those who crave serious adventure, the Beast Mode 2026 from Storyteller Overland was a showstopper. Built on a diesel chassis, it includes:

    • A full enclosed bathroom
    • 37 gallons of fresh water
    • A convertible bed with smart storage below
    • All-electric air conditioning and heating
    • Off-road suspension and 360-degree lighting
    • It’s a true overlander’s dream—ideal for girl campers who want to go farther and stay longer.

      nuCamp Cirrus 620 Truck Camper

      Not every camper wants to tow, and that’s where the Cirrus 620 Truck Camper shines. Weighing just over 1,500 pounds, it fits easily on an F-150 or similar half-ton truck. Inside, it offers:

      • A queen bed
      • A small dinette that converts into an extra bed
      • A hidden swivel toilet
      • A compact kitchen with microwave and fridge
      • Best of all, it allows you to camp without worrying about parking or towing a trailer.

        Jayco Comet Class B Van

        For campers ready to transition from towing to driving, the Jayco Comet Touring Van offers an appealing option. With seating for two, a convertible RV queen bed, and a galley kitchen, it’s practical and road-trip ready. Features include:

        • A cassette toilet and compact shower
        • 18-gallon fresh water tank
        • Swivel passenger seat and dining table
        • Induction cooktop and refrigerator
        • This van makes a great daily driver that doubles as a weekend escape vehicle.

          Final Thoughts

          The Hershey RV Show 2025 was full of inspiration. From lightweight trailers to rugged overland vans, the variety of options proves there’s no wrong way to camp like a girl. Whether you’re dreaming of your first RV or considering a switch to something new, these models offer ideas for every lifestyle.
