Established in 1972 as a builder of lightweight recreational trailers, Scamp started with a 13-foot travel trailer that sold 130 examples during its first year on the market. Scamp fiberglass trailers emerged at an ideal time where a sector of the recreational vehicle marketplace began to desire a product that would enable fuel efficiency and easy towing by almost any capable passenger automobile. Constructing travel trailers as well as 19-foot fifth wheel trailers, Scamp products are well equipped with various amenities including air conditioning and hardwood touches. The Minnesota-based Scamp remains a family-owned business.
