Teardrop Trailers for Sale in Barrie & Oro-Medonte

For the adventurer who values simplicity, mobility, and off-road capability, Bella Vista RV Centre offers an exciting lineup of Teardrop Trailers. Located on Highway 11 in Oro-Medonte, just minutes north of Barrie, we are Simcoe County's headquarters for the "Micro-Camper" movement. Teardrop trailers harken back to a classic era of camping but have been reinvented with modern materials and rugged suspensions for the 21st-century explorer. If you want to escape the crowded campgrounds and head deep into the crown land of Northern Ontario without dragging a massive RV behind you, a Teardrop is your ticket to freedom.

We specialize in high-quality, lightweight brands like Bontrager Outdoors and Braxton Creek. These units are distinctively designed with an aerodynamic profile that creates minimal wind drag, making them towable by almost any vehicle, from a Subaru Outback to a Jeep Wrangler. Whether you are a solo traveler looking for a "hard-sided tent" or a couple seeking a basecamp for hiking and kayaking, our inventory offers the perfect blend of rugged utility and cozy comfort.

Why Buy a Teardrop Trailer from Bella Vista RV?

Teardrop trailers are unique machines that often feature specialized components like off-road axles, solar power systems, and 12-volt refrigerators. At Bella Vista RV, our team understands the "Overland" lifestyle. When you buy from us in Oro-Medonte, you aren't just getting a trailer; you are getting a team that can help you outfit your rig for off-grid success. We inspect every seal and system to ensure your unit is water-tight and ready for the backroads. Plus, our location on the gateway to Muskoka means you can pick up your trailer and be at your campsite in under an hour.

Shop by Adventure-Ready Features

Don't let the small size fool you; these trailers are packed with features. When browsing our Teardrop inventory, pay attention to the layout differences.

Rear Galley Kitchens: classic teardrop designs feature a hatch in the back that opens to reveal a full outdoor kitchen, keeping cooking smells out of your sleeping quarters.
Off-Road Packages: Look for models like the Bontrager Radical series, which come equipped with aggressive all-terrain tires and lifted suspensions for clearing rocks and roots on logging roads.
Interior Headroom: While traditional teardrops are for sleeping only, modern "Squaredrop" models like the Bushwhacker Plus offer enough headroom to stand up, along with small wet baths for total independence.

The Boondocking & Overland Advantage

Teardrop trailers are the undisputed kings of Boondocking (camping without hookups). Their small footprint allows you to squeeze into tight fishing spots or secluded clearings that Class A motorhomes could never dream of reaching. Because they have small interiors to heat and cool, they are incredibly energy-efficient. A small solar panel setup is often all you need to keep your lights and fans running indefinitely, allowing you to stay off the grid for days or weeks at a time.

Towing Guides: The "Tow With Anything" Class

The single biggest advantage of a Teardrop trailer is weight.

Under 1,500 lbs: Many of our Bontrager Compact models weigh less than 1,500 lbs fully loaded. This puts them within the towing capacity of many sedans, hatchbacks, and compact crossovers.
Fuel Economy: The teardrop shape is the most aerodynamic design in the RV industry. You will barely notice a drop in your fuel economy compared to towing a boxy travel trailer.
Easy Storage: A Teardrop trailer fits easily in a single car garage, saving you thousands of dollars in storage fees over the life of the trailer.

Frequently Asked Questions About Teardrop Trailers

Do Teardrop trailers have bathrooms? Classic teardrops do not; they are strictly sleeping pods with an outdoor kitchen. However, "Maxi-Teardrops" (like the Braxton Creek Bushwhacker Plus) have evolved to include a small wet bath (shower/toilet combo) inside. Check the specific floorplan details on our listings to see which amenities are included.

Are they warm enough for shoulder seasons? Yes. Because the interior volume is so small, body heat alone warms them up significantly. Most of our models also come equipped with furnaces or heat pumps that can make the interior toasty warm in minutes, even on freezing October nights.

Can I cook inside a Teardrop trailer? In a traditional teardrop (like the Bontrager Compact), cooking is done outside in the rear galley hatch. This is a feature, not a bug—it keeps your sleeping area clean and grease-free. In larger "Standy" models, you may find a small 2-burner stove inside for making coffee or soup on a rainy morning.
