Windish RV Center Longmont has announced a significant price reduction on a used 2017 Forest River Cherokee Grey Wolf 17BHSE travel trailer, now listed at $10,980—a $7,000 discount from its original MSRP of $17,980. The move underscores the dealership's focus on making family camping more accessible as demand for affordable recreational vehicles remains strong in Colorado. With its bunkhouse layout and manageable size, the Cherokee Grey Wolf 17BHSE represents a practical entry point for families seeking to explore the state's outdoor attractions without incurring the cost of a larger fifth wheel or motorhome.
The featured trailer, a 23-foot bunkhouse model, sleeps up to seven people and offers a dry weight of 4,122 pounds, making it towable by many half-ton pickups and SUVs. Its dedicated bunkhouse provides children or guests with separate sleeping quarters, while the main living area remains distinct. Key specifications include a 46-gallon fresh-water tank, 38-gallon gray-water tank, 28-gallon black-water tank, three-burner range, microwave, refrigerator, patio awning, outside storage, and solar preparation and wiring. The gross vehicle weight rating is 7,539 pounds, though actual towing suitability depends on the tow vehicle and payload. Buyers should also account for passengers, cargo, water, and propane, which can increase travel weight, and compare hitch ratings before hitting the road.
For shoppers researching Cherokee camping trailers, this listing provides a concrete example of what the brand offers in the used market. Windish RV Center maintains an RV specials section with sale-priced inventory, though availability and pricing can change as inventory turns over. The dealership operates sales locations in Longmont, Lakewood, and Colorado Springs, plus Airstream of Colorado as a separate location. Its inventory spans travel trailers, fifth wheels, toy haulers, and motorized RVs, giving buyers a wide range of options. For those comparing RV dealers in CO, the proximity of a service center can be a deciding factor. Windish RV's Longmont sales lot is at 10300 E I-25 Frontage Road, with a separate parts and service facility at 10571 W I-25 Frontage Road, supporting routine maintenance such as coach work, bodywork, hitch and wiring work, and accessory installation.
Denver-area shoppers can also visit the Lakewood location, which serves as an RV store in Denver offering towable inventory. Comparing available units between Longmont and Lakewood can help buyers find the right floor plan and price. Carolyn Windish Irwin, Owner of Windish RV Center, emphasized the importance of matching an RV to a family's specific needs: “Families have different travel plans, tow vehicles, budgets, and space requirements. Comparing layout, weight, capacity, and intended use helps shoppers choose an RV.” That advice is particularly relevant for bunkhouse travel trailers, which can provide extra beds without the bulk of a larger rig, and for a 23-foot trailer that may fit campground sites with length limits. Tank capacities, exterior storage, and solar preparation further influence how a trailer performs on extended trips.
Founded in 1965, Windish RV Center is a family-owned Colorado dealership representing manufacturers such as Airstream, Forest River, Grand Design, Jayco, nuCamp, and Keystone. The company has received the Top 50 RV Business Dealer Award, recognizing its operations, customer service, and professionalism. For families considering a used bunkhouse trailer, the reduced-price Cherokee at Windish RV Center Longmont offers a timely opportunity to enter RV ownership at a lower cost, though buyers should act promptly given that inventory and pricing are subject to change.
