Good day all,
Has anyone found a source for fitted sheets for the odd size and shape of Country Coach King and Queen mattresses?

Look in the RV and marine magazines, in the back small ads. I know there are marine companies that specialize in doing just that. Also custom size mattresses.

I've found that fitted sheets (queen) that are elasticized all the way around will fit these odd mattresses OK. (I got some Hotel Brand at Macy's that have been very good.) The key is elastic ALL the way around...not just corners. In lieu of that, I sewed elastic all the way around some sheets when we first started out and that worked too.

I agree the elastic all the way around on the sheets really helps - we also put a three inch thick memory foam topper on the mattress before then the mat. pad then the sheets - theses took up the additional slack and the wife is thrilled with the extra cushion they provide. Bought our sheets, foam pad and mat, pad at Costco but I am sure you can good quality ones at a number of stores.

We found fitted sheets for our Inspires' queen sized bed at Camping World. Fit perfectly.

I found that sheets for the Intrigue's California Queen are NOT sold in retail stores. They've never even heard of this relatively new size. Apparently, they can only be purchased on the WEB. They are more commonly called California Olympic Queen size. I don't remember the exact measurements, but they are in between the regular King and Queen measurements. Just measure your bed and search on California Queen or Olympic.
Bed Bath and Beyond was the only name I recognized as far as the retailers advertising on the WEB. Just based on personal preferences for color and fabric, I bought my sheets from an unknown WEB retailer for about $90 and a mattress pad from Bed Bath and Beyond for about $70 or 80. Not cheap, but they aren't sold in the discount stores or even in the better retail stores. I checked Penney Catalog, WMT, Macy's, and several others.
I am happy with my purchases.

Hi, we also purchased the linens for the Olympic Queen in our new CC online. I went to www.ebayexpress.com (http://www.ebayexpress.com/) and found them from sheetsrus. They are very nice quality and we are very happy with them. We also ordered a mattress cover and pillow covers that were made by Simmons from a vendor on ebayexpress, also happy with the items. There is also an Egyptian Cotton vendor that has very good quality products, more expensive but much higher thread count. All we purchased is 100% cotton.

Standard house bed sizes are as follows:
Double 54 x 80
Queen 60 x 80
Expanded Queen 66 x 80
There are 2 King sizes I believe they are 72 x 86 or 76 x 80 one is called California King
Motorhome mattresses and boat mattresses are usually odd sized to fit the area.
