2026 Jayco Jay Feather Air SL 17BHSL

The 2026 Jayco Jay Feather Air SL 17BHSL is the perfect lightweight bunkhouse travel trailer for families, first-time RV owners, and outdoor enthusiasts looking for a compact camper that delivers big value. Designed to be easily towed by many SUVs and midsize trucks, this versatile floorplan combines comfortable sleeping accommodations, modern conveniences, and Jayco's renowned quality construction into an affordable, adventure-ready package.

With an overall length of just over 21 feet and an unloaded vehicle weight of approximately 2,885 pounds, the 17BHSL is built for campers who want the freedom to travel without the challenges of towing a larger trailer. Despite its compact size, the thoughtfully designed interior offers sleeping accommodations for up to six people, making it an outstanding choice for families ready to make lasting camping memories.

Lightweight and Easy to Tow

The Jay Feather Air SL series was engineered to provide exceptional towability while maintaining the comfort and durability campers expect from Jayco. Its lightweight design allows more flexibility when selecting a tow vehicle while also making maneuvering and campsite setup easier.

Whether you're heading to the lake for the weekend, exploring state parks, or planning a cross-country road trip, the 17BHSL offers a stress-free towing experience that helps you spend more time enjoying your destination.

Family-Friendly Bunkhouse Floorplan

The 17BHSL is designed with family camping in mind. The front queen bed provides a comfortable sleeping area for parents, while the rear bunk beds offer dedicated sleeping space for children or guests. A convertible dinette creates additional sleeping accommodations when needed, allowing the trailer to comfortably sleep up to six campers. (Moto Sport de la Capitale)
