Refuge 480 Floor Plan
Customize your Refuge 480 with a range of available options to match your camping style. Add a lift kit for increased ground clearance on rugged backroads, a 270-degree awning for generous outdoor shade, roof racks for kayaks, bikes, or extra gear, and an exterior folding table for convenient meal prep and outdoor dining. Extend your camping season with an available furnace, and maximize your carrying capacity with a rear cargo hitch for bikes, coolers, or additional camping equipment.
