Are you trying to find the perfect travel trailer but feel overwhelmed with all of the options out there? We felt the same way! When we purchased our first 28′ travel trailer in 2020, we thought we knew exactly what we needed and wanted and were confident with our purchase. What we DIDN’T know at the time was that we would be LIVING in it 13 months later!!! It was our home on the road for 8 months, and we needed that time to learn what was important to us in a rig as new full-time RVers. We recently purchased a new home on wheels, and we’re excited to share it with you! This is a review of our 2022 Grand Design Imagine 2670MK travel trailer!

Key Takeaway
Overall, we are thrilled with and highly recommend the Grand Design Imagine 2670MK travel trailer. The cons are minimal in comparison to all of the great features of this rig.
Why should you listen to us?
When we were researching RVs, we repeatedly heard variations of, “Your first RV will not be your forever RV.” We had a hard time believing that because we really felt we had found the perfect travel trailer for us. We loved our 2020 Forest River 28′ Wildwood X-Lite 24RLXL travel trailer and did several road trips the first year we had it. One of our favorite trips was to Florida in January 2021 for 10 days to celebrate our 10-year anniversary (we’re simple like that!). If someone would have told us that it would become our HOME just 3 months later, we would’ve said they were crazy!
We lived full time in the Wildwood for 8 months before we purchased our 2022 Grand Design. The Wildwood was a good starter travel trailer. It taught us a lot about our needs and desires as new full-time RVers, and we will highlight many of them throughout this post. We are excited to give you a full review of our 2022 Grand Design Imagine 2670MK travel trailer!

Exterior Features
The exterior features abound on this travel trailer! Here are our top 5 favorites!
- Ample drop frame, front pass-thru storage with motion sensor entry and pass-thru lighting. In our Wildwood, the front pass-thru storage was also our under-the-bed storage so this separate, additional storage in the Grand Design is something we are very thankful for!
- Walk-on roof with 165W roof-mounted solar panel that powers your refrigerator while driving
- Outdoor kitchen with griddle and small refrigerator: We love that we can have water and snacks in this little fridge on travel days since we can’t access the kitchen when the slides are in.
- SolidStep Entry: The lever adjustment vs the pin on the extendable legs of these steps is a much appreciated step up for us (no pun intended!)!
- Four-season protection package that includes a heated and enclosed underbelly with suspended tanks, a designated heat duct to the subfloor (so nice to wake up to warm floors!), a double-insulated roof and front cap, and so much more! We didn’t have this on our first rig, and we ended up in unexpected weather situations with frozen lines and tanks! This should be a priority if you think there’s even the slightest possibility you may become a full-time RVer!
Kitchen Features
The kitchen in our former rig was very small, and storage was also an issue since we didn’t have much of it. We had 2 small drawers in the entire rig, and the food storage area was limited to the cabinets above the couch. It was also inconvenient accessing totes that were kept under the dinette area that held pans and small kitchen appliances. The kitchen in our Grand Design Imagine 2670MK is AMAZING! Our list of things we love in the kitchen is long, but these are our top 5 most appreciated features!
- Do you see all of this counter space??? We love having room to comfortably prep and serve meals!
- The island is a dream to have! It not only looks good and adds to the coziness of the rig, but it also provides such a great additional work area with even better storage underneath! It is the perfect place for our Berkey water filtration system, too!
- Speaking of the island, it also has a deep-seated stainless steel sink with a residential pull-down sprayer faucet. We didn’t have either of these in our former rig, and there were so many times we both said we wished we had a sprayer on our faucet. We use it all the time!
- The amount of cabinet and drawer space is amazing! We have maximized the space so we actually have extra room right now which is such a pleasant surprise for us!
- In addition to all of the wonderful storage in the kitchen, there is even more storage under each of the dinette seating areas!
Living Room (Can we call it that?) Features
Yes! 🙂 Since these rigs are home for us, we refer to each area in the RV as we would in a sticks and bricks. We continue to compare the features in this rig to our former Wildwood X-Lite but that’s a good thing! We learned a lot from having that as our first travel trailer, and it is all important information to consider when purchasing a rig. The Wildwood had a jackknife sofa when we purchased it, and no matter how hard we tried, it was not comfortable at all for sitting or for sleeping. We found ourselves sitting in the dinette booth to relax every evening which was not exactly comfortable either. We eventually replaced the jackknife sofa with a DIY desk area that worked much better for us. The living room in our new Grand Design is perfect for the two of us, although in full transparency, if I (Laurie) could have my way, there would be another couch for guests. Since the desk area was a priority for us, we knew we had to sacrifice the additional couch. One other important thing to note is that the opposing slides, the large panoramic windows, and the radius ceiling with 81″ of headroom make this living area feel so spacious! Let’s talk about some of our favorite features of the living room!
- Thanks to the opposing slides, there is enough floor space to unroll a yoga/exercise mat and comfortably complete workouts! A bonus feature here is that the AC vent is right above this area which really helps during workouts!
- The theater seating recliners are SO comfortable, and we really enjoy the seat heaters! The center console provides the perfect amount of storage for remotes and phone charging cords.
- Who doesn’t love a televator? The 40″ high definition, LED, telescoping TV is such a great feature for us since we don’t watch a lot of TV. We utilize the space to the fullest (meaning my plant collection lives there!) when the TV is down, but we do enjoy watching an episode or two together every once in awhile!
- The 5,000 BTU fireplace can heat the entire living area when temps outside get chilly! In addition to being functional, it is also such a cozy luxury to have in an RV. There are 2 great little cabinets on each side of the fireplace that provide the perfect space for book storage or DVDs (does anyone even own DVDs anymore? We do!).
- This might not be a priority for some, but since this RV is our home, blank wall space of any size was an exciting thing. The living area has an entire wall from floor to ceiling that has provided such a fun opportunity for decorating!
Bathroom Features
Here we go comparing again! The bathroom in our Wildwood was actually bigger than what we have in the Grand Design. It had a walk-thru bath with a lot of storage which felt so spacious and also provided the opportunity to close off the door to the living area, giving you a master bed/bath feel (RV style, of course). I (Laurie) really loved that bathroom! The bathroom in the Grand Design is definitely much smaller, but the overall upgrade has absolutely been worth the tradeoff. There is one thing we aren’t crazy about with this bathroom. The sliding door does not offer total privacy like an actual hinged door would. If you’re standing on the one side of the bed, you can totally see the toilet area. This may not bother some, but we thought we would mention it so you can be aware of it. We DO have things we like about this bathroom, though, so let’s talk about those now!
- The 30″ x 36″ residential shower has a skylight, and the shower itself feel spacious.
- Good storage for a small space: The medicine cabinet provides a great amount of storage, and there is an additional cabinet above the toilet as well. There is also storage under the sink, and while it isn’t much, there’s enough room for a couple of cleaning supplies and packages of toilet paper which is perfect!
- The linen “closet” is actually what I would describe more as a linen tower or linen cubbies. I wasn’t so sure about these at first as I didn’t feel they would provide much useable storage, but they’ve actually worked really well for us. I also found plants that add life to the small bathroom and fill the cubby openings perfectly to hide what’s behind them.
Bedroom Features
We really like the bedroom in our Grand Design! We’re simple people and don’t need a big bedroom since we spend our waking hours in the living area of the rig. In our opinion, this bedroom provides the perfect amount of space. It has a 60″ x 80″ queen bed with a solid sliding bedroom door. You have enough room to get dressed and to comfortably walk around the bed. Here are a few of our favorite things!
- We are thrilled with the storage in the bedroom! We have our own mini closets on each side of the bed along with two drawers PLUS additional cabinet storage above the bed!
- There is also oversized storage under the bed with a sliding cargo tray!
- There are cubbies on each side of the bed with USB charging stations and 110v outlets!
- In addition to all of the storage mentioned above, at the foot of the bed, there is a bigger closet (half length) with 2 large drawers below it!
Why did we chose the Grand Design Imagine 2670MK?
The first time we saw the Imagine 2670MK floorplan online, we were so excited to see an RV with all of the features we dreamed of in ONE rig! We were so used to looking at the options and feeling disappointed that we would need to sacrifice features on our dream list. When we saw the 2670MK in person, it was everything we were hoping for and more! The quality of Grand Design RVs is just as their website states, head and shoulders above other brands. We know this to be true from our own experience of owning another brand. The construction of Grand Design rigs is in a class of its own! Last but certainly not least, we have not met one Grand Design owner that has been unhappy with their RV! We have heard many times that their customer service is what really sets them apart! When we read, “We strive for nothing less than customers for life,” we knew we wanted to be part of the Grand Design family, and we are so, so proud to call our 2670MK our home!

Grand Design Imagine 2670MK Review Conclusion
The Grand Design Imagine 2670MK has been an excellent model for us as full-time RVers. The fabulous kitchen with ample storage, the cozy and comfortable living area, a bedroom with a queen-sized bed and closets and drawers galore, and ultimately, enough room for each of us to have our own space, means this floor plan is a perfect fit for us.
