Flagstaff 228BHSE*

(with no interior shower)

(2016-2023; shower version here)

(2016 model year shown --[why an older model?])

Wheel-well note: as with all 228 variants (and several others like the 206ST, 206STSE, and the 207), part of the wheel-well protrudes into the dinette leg-room space. This is covered by a wood box. In the 228BHSE it looks like this:

Highlights

The dinette and gaucho area together help with meals and game time!
A full walkway from end to end makes getting to the beds easy

Comparable Models

228BHSE with shower - Same basic layout but but with a shower/cassette toilet in the front door-side corner instead of a storage cabinet. Hot water and exterior shower standard.
206STSE - One size smaller in the Sports Enthusiast series, it has a 10' box with a storage trunk on the front.

The non-Sports-Enthusiast predecessor of the 228BHSE was the 228BH.

Please note: this is a "brochure page" intended to provide information about a particular model Flagstaff offers--it does not necessarily mean we have this model in stock. Any pictures on brochure pages represent a given model's design but do not necessarily depict an individual camper available for sale and may contain optional equipment. Please see "Features" (above) for included equipment and please check New Campers In Stock for our current inventory.Thank you!

Weights and capacities are estimates and may vary based on how individual campers are outfitted. In Flagstaff's brochure they note: "The load capacity of your unit is designated by weight, not by volume, so you cannot necessarily use all available space when loading your unit."

*In 2024, the interior shower became standard on the 228BHSE. Because Flagstaff considered this an option and not a separate model, they simply made the shower standard while retaining the "228BHSE" name. We used two different model pages for the 228BHSE and the 228BHSE with shower because that's a rather major difference between the two.

To help people using Forest River's website we've adopted their nomenclature for this model. So the 228BHSE with the interior shower that Forest River calls the "228BHSE" is on the 228BHSE model page since it is the only 228BHSE available now, though we still clarify by adding "(with interior shower)" to the title. The information for the "228BHSE" with NO interior shower is on this page.
