Forest River Cedar Creek Silverback 5th Wheel reviews

We decided to pick up the rig in Ohio. We drove from CA and were out in a flash from the dealer. It was truly a shake down trip. Pleasantly, we had very few issues! stuck door, a few minor design issues that made me scratch my head. But overall, this is a great product! The workmanship is, in my opinion, better than average. compared to a pull trailer, this thing pulls like a dream! On long stretches, I sometimes forgot it was back there. We did have one recall where they forgot to put the slide skis on 2 of the 3 slide-outs. That will be handled soon. So, over all, I am very pleased with the decision to go with Cedar Creek. I am not a full timer and we have had it out 4 times since September. I do believe though that this is a great destination trailer. Show less

What an amazing layout. You could seriously full time in this RV. Tons of space. The back room can be used for an office or an extra bedroom. There's even an extra bathroom back. The kitchen is made for a mini chef. Huge fridge and stove makes my wife feel at home. Master bedroom has a king size bed. HUGE closet with enough space for a washer and dryer. Loft is useful for friends that wanted to stay the night. You could use it as storage too. Makes the RV feel bigger and roomier. Cons: The back room would get a little cold at night so we just bought an electric heater. Overall..It's one of the best layouts we've' ever been in. Show less

We are original owners of a 2005. It was perfect to have a separate bunkhouse for our son while he was growing up. We never had a problem with this unit. It served our family very well. Quality was superb, upholstery, appliances all have served us perfectly. Show less

This has been a great coach. We ordered it from the factory and Cedaf Creek was willing to put in the changes we asked for. Towing is a breeze and hook up and unhooking is simple with the 6 point hydraulic system. The coach is 34 feet but feels much Bigger thanks to the opposing slides, the floor space is actually big enough to dance in. The master bed room is real nice sized and the king bed is great. The stackable washer an drier gets rid of the drudge of going to the laundry mat. As for cons . I don't have any. Show less

Bought this RV used at 9 years old. Excellent condition. Only issue at this point was soft rotted wood in the BR slide out, typical leak for this rig. Water invaded through the bottom side trim. I knew this was issue when I bought the RV. A little effort to replace the floor, found the bottom "pan" was cracked once I got to it but FR had the part for $16 shipping. We've enjoyed this RV so far, typical issue of needing 2nd AC unit for hot southern days! Added that unit this summer, was already prewired! ALWAYS have a good charged battery, the slide operation is BR, DR, kitchen and requires a lot of power. Show less

It’s a real good RV. Just a little long for some camp sites. Very comfortable, adequate space in living areas. All appliances work great. Furnace keeps the area warm in 30 degree temperatures. Dual zone air conditioning works well even at St George Island, Fl. Load with your equipment and you’re ready to go. Show less

This is a very open floor plan with a clear and wide view from the living area that lets in a lot of sun light. From the large shower area to the king size bed to the quiet ac, this RV is great for full or part time living or just for a nice getaway. It is such a well built 5th wheel. We have been very pleased. Show less

Owning and using the 2014 Forest River Cedar Creek Silverback has been one of the best decisions we've ever made about RVing. We've made trips from PA to CA and back with ease. The AC did quit on us, but it was under warranty and the manufacturer replaced it quickly. We liked the openness of the floor plan, allowing TV watching and enjoying the coziness of the fireplace from the comfy LazyBoy recliners, the dining chairs, and the couch with a pull-out queen-sized bed (which was also comfortable in itself). The bathroom is small, but we wouldn't trade it for the extra space in the bedroom. You can actually stand up and walk around the queen bed. A walk-in closet covering almost one whole wall has a light inside it and hook-ups for washer and dryer. We did not use the w/d feature ourselves so cannot speak to its use. There is also a smaller tv mounted above the dresser in the bedroom. There are many cupboards and a pantry-pullout with shelving for dishes, food, etc in the main living area. A bonus - a central vacuum system! There is also lots of storage room under the camper itself. We added solar panels to the roof and 4 new batteries for the times we would dry-camp. It has a 65-gallon water tank which came in handy during dry-camping. It also tows easily. All in all, we would recommend this 5th wheel without hesitation. Show less
