Extremely livable RV with beautiful modern interior. Great kitchen space, full sized fridge, ice maker, dishwasher (disclaimer - we did have some challenges with this!), terrific for relaxing in the two recliners or large pullout couch, "fireplace" kicked out some seriuos heat, king sized bed, bright bathroom. We needed something to live in while our cabin was being built, and this was awesome. I don't have towing experience so we had this delivered to our prepared pad - I applaud anyone who can tow this thing! Show less

Poorest quality control I’ve ever seen. Bedroom deadbolt didn’t line up with the hole in the door frame. Two huge holes on both sides of the slide with the refrigerator/stove when the slide is retracted. The floor actually fell off the slide with the recliners. Zero response from manufacturer for warranty on a brand new 2022 park model. Show less

We bought this RV for use on our lake property while our cabin was being built. It has only been moved a few miles to storage for the winter. Towing requires at least a 3/4-ton truck. I purchased a 1-ton Silverado. Towing is pretty easy. We love this RV. The King bed in the master bedroom is comfortable. Our guests have said the Queen hide-a-bed couch if also good. The loft is great for kids. There is plenty of storage for clothes. The pantry has plenty of room. We used the fireplace in the spring and fall to take the chill off. It has two air conditioners that work well in the summer. The gas heaters kept the RV plenty warm in the Fall. It needs to be Winterized when the temperature falls below freezing for an extended period of time The water heater is a bit small so you have to be thoughtful when taking showers. The full size refrigerator and stove/oven work as expected. The microwave also works just fine. From a quality perspective it is your typical RV. Everything is designed to keep things light. The appliances are not name brand, look like the private label types you see at a Best Buy. However everything works just fine. Leveling the unit is important to allow for the extensions to function properly. There is no evidence of leaking. I would recommend this unit. Show less

Love the floor plan, the nice king size bed, the island kitchen with full size refrigerator built in vacuum. Great stereo system with outdoor speakers, honestly can’t complain!! Wouldn’t change anything about it. Show less

Received my trailer May 2021, upon inspection door jams scuffed up, actually chunks taken out. Hooked it up, hot water flow at a minimum in the kitchen sink, (talked to plumber in the family said probably a kink in the line) counter top has scuff marks that will not come out. bathroom faucet only goes on hot or warm, handle will not go on cold, crack on bathroom sink, chip in shower wall..shower doors make horrible loud noise opening and closing. Bedroom, pistons on bed let go when I was trying to put items under for storage. Got out just in time. That heavy bed would have broke my back. Although dealership is trying to be helpful it’s 4 months and still waiting for issues to be resolved. I did contact Forest River over these issues and poor workmanship. They could care less. We do like the trailer, but dissatisfied with quality considering they are $86,000.00. Show less

Forest River Cottage CCK40 bought 1/5/21 paid in full Has major issues that the Forest River and the dealership refuse to correct It is now 21 days later and no one will resolve these defects After paying $3,000 to deliver the trailet it arrived with a scrape down the side from road debris Even though the dealer was pd $3K they said the accident is mine and for me to resolve The transport will not get back to us #2 the trailer was delivered without a power cord we had to stay in a motel another night We had to go out and buy another cord and pay for another night at the motel These were never paid to us #3 The refrigerator came with a broken cover inside the door after 3 days the ice maker stopped working it just leaks water inside the tray which freezes into one big block of ice Now out to buy ice trays I have spent hrs and days trying to deal with Forest River, the dealer, Best Buy and the Geeks No one is in at these companies or I am put in touch with someone else who is told the story again because the original person is not there 4# There is trim off the bathroom door was not hung properly, the windows are so hard to open it takes two of us to open one window I still have not received the Title because the dealer sent it to my other home and no one was there to accept I have no idea where it is so I can not finish registering this trailer There are other issues but these are the main ones I give Forest River a review of from 1 to 10 a 2 If I know a company owned by Warren Buffett would be run so unprofessionally and uncaring to their customers I would have never bought a Forest River Destination Trailer from them Show less

Our first year was enjoyable except for faulty instillation or our washer causing flooding and the DVD player died after using it about 5 times. This year not so good The Original connection hose to the washer Was faulty and lasted one season so another flood, the ice maker died after one season and the worst part is the AC died totally after the cooling fluid leaked out. I’m almost afraid of what’s next. Can we bring manufacturing back to North America. I would rather pay more for products that last. Some of the problems were fixed under warranty but we are left with water stained carpet and suffering temps of 32 degrees Celsius or 90 degrees Fahrenheit Trailer Quality is low and ACs not available for replacement because of COVID. I could add more but what’s the point. TJ Show less

I love this unit. As soon as we looked at it we knew this was perfect The lazy boy sofa and recliners are very comfortable The full kitchen size refrigerator is needed as we have this on a seasonal site The amount of kitchen cabinets are unbelievable for a camper In the bedroom there is so much storage I don’t even have 1/2 of them filled Washer dryer hook ups are great Large gray and black water tanks Power awning so easy just a push of a button. Many windows across the whole front front. The day/night shades are a must Very easy exterior maintenance, nice smooth fiberglass I can’t think of anything else I would want or need in a camper Show less

My wife and I have owned three class A RV's in the past. Our 2017 Cedar Creek Hathaway Cottage,40 CRS, exceeds our expectations in the areas of comfort and quality incorporated into its design. We live in this unit six months each year and have had little to no problems with it. It provides all of the modern conveniences of our Florida home including top notch accessories. The floor plan is designed so that everything is easily accessible, is roomy and provides 8 ft high ceilings. We love the unit. Show less
