At the 2026 Florida RV SuperShow, Isaac from Where RV Going? walked through a brand-new trailer from a first-time manufacturer, Awaken RV (see video at bottom of article).
The MorningStar is a 23 ft. 11 in. travel trailer with a full fiberglass body and a bright, modern interior that doesn’t feel like a white box. For shoppers tired of leaks, rot, and wall issues, this one is meant to change the conversation.
Awaken RV is based in Apple Creek, Ohio. Scott, who toured the unit with Isaac, said the company is built by RV veterans. He brings about 15 years of experience in teardrops and truck campers, and that background shows up in the layout and the European-leaning style choices.
This MorningStar is the first production unit, and the company kicked things off late last year. The idea was simple: the fiberglass trailer space felt a bit stuck, so Awaken RV tried to bring many of the best ideas into one model.
Awaken RV MorningStar specs at a glance
- Length: 23 ft. 11 in.
- Weight: 5,300 lbs. (dual-axle)
- Power: 30-amp service
- Construction: double-hull fiberglass body
- Starting price is posted as $88,900
Exterior
Storage starts strong with large baggage compartments, including a huge upper drawer area. One side houses the electrical backbone: a Battle Born Gamechanger battery and a MultiPlus 3000. On the roof, it includes 500 watts of solar, plus a port for portable panels for people who like to park in the shade and place panels in the sun.
Up front, the trailer uses a Gen-Y coupler and rides on a Gen-Y all-aluminum chassis. The standard axle is a Dexter rubber torsion axle. An independent suspension option is available, and Scott noted it’s the only paid option, adding weight and cost.
Along the sides, there are seven acrylic insulated windows, all opening, with screens and shades. Utility hookups are kept tidy, including a Nautilus water management system and a dedicated bay for outdoor shower, city water, black tank flush, and winterization.
Around back, a custom bumper stores water hoses, an observation camera comes standard, and there’s a 500 lb.-rated receiver for carrying items like e-bikes.
Interior
The first thing noticed inside is the floor. It’s a luxury woven vinyl mat that sits on a fiberglass floor, so it can be lifted to clean. The interior mixes white surfaces with real wood cabinetry to keep it warm. Ceiling height is about 6 ft. 8 in., and lighting can shift between cool, warm, and colored modes.
The kitchen is sized like Awaken RV expects people to actually cook in it. It includes a large multi-function sink, a three-burner cooktop, and a microwave, air fryer, and convection oven combo.
The fridge and freezer are up at a normal height, so nobody has to crouch to see what’s inside. Overhead cabinets run along both sides, stopping where the fridge and wardrobe take over.
The dinette table can be recessed and converted into a bed. The table can also swivel, which helps when people want to work, eat, or slide in and out.
The front bedroom comes with two twin beds, plus a large wardrobe and a lower cubby. There’s also an option for an east to west queen on a versatile system, described as almost like a chaise lounge. Curved front windows bring in lots of daylight for stargazing.
The bathroom is a full dry bath with a vessel sink, porcelain toilet, a window, and storage. It also includes a seat and extra space behind the door.
- Fresh: 38 gallons
- Gray: 32 gallons
- Black: 18 gallons
This trailer, while brand new, is already in production. Buyers can place a deposit and get in the queue, with spring delivery mentioned. Awaken RV also has dealer partners across the country.

Very nice, pricey?
Beautiful and so easy to clean everywhere. Only window seals to worry about for water intrusion. Love the innovation. I do wonder how the fiberglass wall will do next to the hot cook top burner…. Seems a barrier might be in order. Overall Nice, albeit expensive – but expensive to make and with quality too!
