Utah is home to some of the world’s most amazing camping locations – Moab, Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park to name just a few.
If you’re planning your own Utah adventure, you’re probably asking, “Which RV is best for camping in Utah?”
We get asked this question a lot at Bish’s RV. We know finding the right camper at the right price can be hard. That’s why we created our own line of low-priced high-quality RVs – Go Play travel trailers.
After only 5 months of sales, Go Play ranks in the Top 3 highest-selling camper brands of 2023 in Utah and is the #1 fastest-growing RV brand in the state.
This article will cover the rapid rise of Go Play RVs in Utah and help you decide if a Go Play travel trailer is the right choice for your next camping expedition.

What makes Go Play travel trailers different?
Let’s be honest – there’s nothing that much physically different about Go Play travel trailers than most other mid-tier travel trailers.
They are stick and tin conventional travel trailers, they come with solar power as a standard feature and they don’t offer any optional add-ons.
What separates Go Plays is their price. Compared to similar travel trailers, Go Plays cost 1,000s less than their competitors.

Why do Go Play RVs Cost less than Similar RVs?
If you’re like me, you can’t stand when you buy a box of crackers only to see that it’s less than ½ full when you open it.
Just a year ago, that same-sized box came with way more crackers than it does now.
The cracker-makers are giving you less crackers for the same price as last year so you don’t have to shell out more money to buy crackers – but they don’t shrink the size of the box so it’s not obvious you’re actually getting less.
They are giving you less so you don’t have to pay more.
Some RV makers are doing the same thing with their campers– it’s called de-contenting.
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:
THERE IS NO DE-CONTENTING WITH GO PLAY RVS!
None! Zero! Zilch! No De-Contenting!
Go Play travel trailers have all the must-have camping features. We didn’t get rid of anything. You get it all – but you pay less.
How is that possible? Let me tell you another story…
The Go Play Story
This story doesn’t have a lot of numbers in it. It’s about an RV company (Bish’s RV) who wanted to provide their customers with low-priced high-quality RVs– but we didn’t want to de-content and take away essential features just to lower our prices.
After a lot of research – and some trial and error – we found we could cut prices BIGTIME if we did 3 things:
1. Cut out the Middle Men
2. Simplify Options
3. Streamline the Production Process
By doing these 3 things, and learning to do them really well, we found we could build amazing travel trailers with price tags that are 1000s of dollars less than similar mid-tier travel trailers.
