The Entire 2021 Winnebago Minnie Winnie Line (with Video Tours)
RVs come in many styles and sizes, from a compact van to a motorhome the size of a small house. But, the Class C RV is the famous middle child. And the Winnebago Minnie Winnie is said to offer the best balance of amenities and value in the industry.
Today, we’ll look at this well-known Class C RV to see what makes the Minnie Winnie so popular. We’re sharing the details, with video tours, of the entire line.
Let’s dig in!
What Is a Winnebago Minnie Winnie RV?
The Winnebago Minnie Winnie family of RVs falls into the popular category of Class C RVs. These are known to offer much more space than their Class B siblings. On the other hand, they maintain a significantly smaller footprint than the Class A motorhomes.
The classic cab-over bunk readily identifies the Class C middle child of RVs, and the Minnie Winnie is no exception.
Winnebago’s Minnie Winnie has long been the go-to RV for many travelers who embrace its legendary construction, value, and design. Read on to find out why.
The History of Winnebago Minnie Winnie
Winnebago was founded in 1958 as a maker of motorhomes. Then in 1973, they introduced the Minnie Winnie to their line. Built on the Dodge B-series van chassis, the first Minnie Winnie was about 19 ½ feet long. Over the years, Winnebago added longer models of the Minnie Winnie to the line. And today, they offer six versions, all of which are built on either the Ford E350 or E450 chassis.
Winnebago designed the Minnie Winnie with families in mind, so all versions can comfortably sleep at least four people. Incredibly, some floorplans can sleep up to eight people.
Known for its open floor plans, the Minnie Winnie Class C is a comfortable option for families of all sizes. All of the Minnie Winnie floor plans offer a rear bedroom and a cab-over bunk. While some offer an additional sofa bed or bunk beds!
Let’s have a look at each Minnie Winnie model as we continue our investigation into one of the most popular motorhomes ever made.
Minnie Winnie Class C RV Floorplans
22M
We begin with a look at the Minnie Winnie 22M, one of the shortest of the current Minnie Winnie line.
This is Winnebago’s smallest RV that includes a slide-out. Even so, the 22M offers sleeping space for up to six people (5 most comfortably) in three separate areas! These include the overhead bunk, the U-shaped dinette/sleeper, and a walk-around queen bed located at the rear of the motorhome.
Winnebago’s classic U-shaped lounge area serves as comfortable dining, gaming, or workspace. Furthermore, the 22M offers a full kitchen area, plenty of storage, and a full bath with a 23” x 34” shower at the rear of the RV.
The Minnie Winnie 22M is 24’5” in length, 8’6” wide, has an interior height of 6’10” for you tall folks, and an exterior height of 10’11”. Watch that fast-food drive-thru! It has a gross weight of 12,500 pounds and a hitch weight of 7500 pounds.

This model doesn’t use a slide-out. However, it still has a full-time queen bed in the rear, the over-head bunk, and a U-shaped dinette/sleeper. Like the 22M, the 22R’s lounge area serves as a work, play, or dining area, and it offers a full kitchen, ample storage, plus a full bath with the same 23” x 34” shower.

Thank You Kyle & Olivia for doing this extensive (with the videos) review of Winnebago’s entire iconic Class C lineup! Could you do others like Coachmen lineup, etc.? The great thing about the Minnie Winnie/Spirit is the fiberglass roofs and Azdel sidewalls! The other thing is that ALL Minnie Winnies/Spirits come with the new Ford V8 premium chassis! One caution for new people, the 22M and 26T have foldup beds, and if you haven’t slept on one, you may not like it. We bought an RV with one and got rid of it a year later because that fold always prevented us from having a good sleep. Corner beds are better, but they really are only great for one person sleeping. If you want to get a true unfolded walkaround bed under 30′ you need to check out the Coachmen 26QB. It is true that the plastic toilets and sinks in the bathrooms are bad, but at least for about $300 w/installation you can get a porcelain toilet. Overall, the 22R is maybe one of the best single person RV’s! For a couple, I might also want to check out the Coachmen mentioned above.
