One Side Mount ATV/RV Combo To Go
Many RVers enjoy riding off-road vehicles. The four wheel ATVs are especially popular and RVers have come up with some great ways to get them to their favorite off-road destinations. Here is an example of the side mount system. 
A metal rack extends across the truck bed and ramps attach to the side. The operator drives the ATV up the ramps onto the back of the truck. Retaining bars block the wheels preventing the ATV from overshooting the truck bed (that would be bad - but admittedly fun to watch). 
If you have a travel trailer and want to take along your ATV this option may be perfect for you. I've also seen two ATVs being carried in this manner. 
The nice thing about this arrangement is most of the dust is blown off your ATV before you get back home. Staying on top of things - Jim Twamley, Professor of RVing

Anyone have any experience towing a trailer for an ATV behind a travel trailer-I know it is legal in most states.

I have 2 ATV's that we would love to be able to take with us camping. Where would I be able to get this toy hauler?

Towing something behind a trailer is not legal in most states!

My husband built an iron frame for our P/U bed to haul 2 ATV's side by side, similar to the one pictured. He had no plans to go by, but is a good welder, so he actually did this on our garage floor. We can now haul our small travel trailer and still have fun on our ATV's. I have pictures and instructions if anyone is interested.

They were NOT doing double towing so why would you say that? When I looked they had the ATV on the tow vehicle and the trailer behind.
