Keystone Montana High Country 305RL reviews

Our Dissatisfaction Is Not With The People But With The Product. We Purchased A 2024 Keystone Montana And For A Few Days We Loved It…. We’ve Had It Appox 5 Months And I Think The Repair Man Should Just Move In. Awnings Wouldn't Work, Had Them Fixed Now One Awning Wont Work Because The Motor Is Shot ! We’ve Only Used The Awning A Few Times. One Of The Faucets In The Two Sink Bathroom Had To Be Replaced And Now The Other One Needs Replacing. The Ice Maker Hose Leaked And Was Fixed. The Black Water Tanks Were Hooked Up Backwards And Had That Fixed. The Brand New Fridge Stopped Working And The Motherboard Is On Order. The Microwave Vent Leaked And We’ve Had Lakes Under Our Stove And Into Our Kitchen. Today They Sealed The Vent Hopefully No Permanent Damage Is Done. The Furniture Is The Same Brand As Our Last Trailer A 2019 Grand Design But Is Of Lesser Quality. Hidabeds Are Vertually Useless And Already The Controls On The Recliners Are Malfunctioning. The Motor On The Tv To Make It Rise Up From The Counter Has Sounded Like Its On Its Last Leg Since We Got It. To Say The Least We Are Not “Happy Campers” Show less

This RV is easy to live in. Roomy Floorplan. Large size refrigerator, easily holds a week's worth of groceries. Large shower, and lots of storage for supplies. We spent 4 months in this camper for 3 winters and never felt claustrophobic. Show less

My wife and I bought this RV new, 7 long, long, long years ago. On our first trip, in the boondocks of NE BC, a slide out cable snapped. Our dining and relaxing areas were now useless. The only good thing, is that a few stout lads were able to help me push it back into the house, so that we could continue our trip. Turns out that the "factory technicians": had misaligned the mounting holes, so the awkward tension on the "brand new cable" was so great that it snapped. We have ornamental trim in the unit. Big heavy, luxurious looking pieces. On the same trip, when we opened the door, one of the pieces had broken loose, and fallen onto the dining table (which we couldn't use, and the recliners, which we couldn't use). So, I laid the piece on those two, and waited to get back home so that I could drill some holes, and use 2.5" wood screws to hold it in place. Oh, yes, I forgot to mention, the "staples" that were supposed to hold it in place missed the mark by 50%, and they were only 1/2 inch long anyways. The spare tire rack, under chassis - great idea. Except, the receiving nut was never welded to the carrier, so that when it came to change a tire, my wife had to grovel in the mud holding a wrench on the bolt, so that I could put a socket on said nut. Not cool. Why: well because it's never a sun shiny day, when a fellow gets a flat. Then the electrics went. 2 dealerships couldn't figure it out, my buddy an electrician was stymied, and then I found the GOD OF RV ELECTRICS, and $500 later, it was fixed. Then, the other slide in the living area went askew. Tore up a frame stud, tore up the sliding plate under the slide, so to make a long story short $6500 later, I got it back. The dealership is fantastic. The product? I rue the day that I bought it. One final thought, I only illustrated the highlights. There were many more. Stay away from Montana. Show less

I have loved living in this RV for the last 2 years. I have renovated it and really made it my own. It is bright and airy. Fresh feel. Large windows, great views. I love the totally separate bathroom and bedroom. I could easily have someone stay in the main living area and I stayed in the bedroom with total privacy. The shower is a great size for an RV.

The Montana is the poorest quality workmanship of any rv we have ever owned. We decided to go “new” so we wouldn’t have issues every time we decided to take it out. Big mistake! More issues with this rv than even the 12 year old one we traded in. The dealership has gone out of their way to try to take care of all of the issues that Montana has created. Show less

Just spent my life savings. To live full time in this R.V. I am so disappointed.It is the biggest piece of junk I have ever seen.And the dealership is seems to be the exact same. It's absolutely amazing Keystone can produce a product like this and can still stay in business!!!! Show less

This fifth wheel has two vent covers in the wall of the bonus room that are just big holes out to the storage compartment. There are no screens or vent pipes on them. The bugs,the heat, the cold, smells and noise all come in. The couch that pulls out to a bed is so uncomfortable.The frame has bars that are under your ribs and hips. Making it impossible to be comfortable. Once the bed is in place there is no way to use the cabinet at the end of the bed. You can't open the bottom door or access the cubby below. The door to the room can barley be opened all the way because of the bed being out. The noises from outside are heard as if there are no walls seperating. The trim molding in most areas are falling off. There are what looks like smears all over the walls and ceiling. Looks like adhesive. The pantry light comes on at random times. The ladder to gain access to the "bunk" area is very dangerous. Our children have fallen numerous times. The rungs are round and feet slip off easily. It is unbelievably painful to climb up. This so called bunk is so low that it is uncomfortable to be up there. The mattresses that come with are horrible. Show less

We purchased our 2019 Montana High Country at the end of 2019. We previously had a travel trailer but had chosen to upgrade to a larger camper. We liked the layout, set up and roominess of our camper. With the camper, we purchased a Pullrite hitch designed for shorter bed trucks. Just off the lot, it was obvious that the hitch wasn't properly set up and adjusted due to the amount of chunking we experienced on the ride home (a relatively simple fix if the unit had been test driven-Camping World). The longer we owned the camper, the more issues we found with construction and set up. The first obvious discrepancy was the auto level which was out of level by nearly 8 inches. A camper that is not level will have issues with slides going in and out and refrigerator doors closing properly. After resolving the hitch adjustment and auto level issues, our next issue was the auto recliners not being properly fastened to the subfloor. After fastening down the recliners with the proper number of fasteners to the subfloor, our next issue was a leak in the main air-conditioning unit as well as leaks through the air-conditioning unit during heavy rains. This was a large inconvenience for guests who slept on the foldout bed. The foldout bed when extended does not sit in a level manner resulting in guests having to sleep with their feet against the back of the couch. The next issue we had with our camper was with the slide cable system. We have 3 slides all of which had cables that were improperly adjusted. The largest slide had cables so tight that the motor was working against the cables in both directions. The kitchen slide cables were loose and canted resulting in improper operation as well. We are still contending with a refrigerator door system that does not close securely each and every time resulting in rising temperatures. We have dealt with accessories which are poorly assembled and put together. We have reassembled each and every window blind in the camper as well as re-sewed comforters due to improper stitching and assembly. Each time we arrive at our destination, there is sawdust on the sinks and floors due to improper cleanup of the HVAC ducting at the factory. Understanding that things loosen during travel time, we have had leaks under the kitchen sink due to improperly tightened sink drain plumbing joints. The table chairs had joints which were only pressed together with no glue applied to the joints requiring additional work to reassemble the chairs. The Montana High Country is not for the faint of heart. Be prepared to either do a lot of maintenance and repairs as an owner or not have your fifth wheel when you want it because it is still in the shop for miscellaneous repairs. Show less

Nice looking trailer, went full time for nearly three years, maybe thats the problem. Under warranty the gears and motor on dinette slide, fan motor, toilet parts, and water leaks, also card for the furnace ( I paid that or wait 2 weeks on the road for warranty to send one). Year two water heater repairs, axle alinement, toilet parts, furniture repairs. Year 3 sink hardware, door hardware, fan card and microwave. Year 4 is starting broken welds in the wall around the dinette slide and the ceiling fan quit. We had a 2010 Cougar and decided to upgrade when I retired, I did not know that Keystone and it's vender decided that quality was not important anymore. Show less
