Devotees of The Sims 4 have an uncanny knack for voicing their desires.
We never hold back when it comes to expressing what we crave for in the game.
Not too long ago, the game lacked official bunk beds in any shape or form. But that didn’t stop players from whipping them up on their own.
When there’s a will, there’s a way. And if you’ve ever tried to house more than four youngsters in one room without using cheats, the need for bunk beds becomes painfully apparent.
It’s a tough existence, attempting to squeeze four rugrats into a single sleeping space.
But with Custom Content (CC), nothing is beyond reach. Whether you’re after some stunning new hues, or a bed that defies convention, your fellow Sims enthusiasts have got your back.
1. Tiny Living Bunk Beds
Take a Peek at This CC for Tiny Living Bunk Beds
When the Tiny Living Stuff pack was first released, bunk beds were nowhere to be found.
I adore this pack and all that it offers, but I couldn’t help but wonder why such a basic necessity was left out. After all, many real-life owners of tiny homes use them.
Thankfully, bunk beds were later included in the base game, so we can’t really complain about that, can we? Especially when it’s free.
But one amazing creator, MadameRia, took it upon themselves to bring the awesome furniture style from the Tiny Living pack to life with their own epic bunk bed creation. And the best part? It’s compatible with the base game!
Now everyone can revel in the joys of pseudo-retro fun!
With separate bed frames and mattresses, you have complete control over the combinations. This means you can match any wooden frame with any mattress swatch you desire.
If you’re looking for a lower frame and mattress combo, however, you’ll need the mother pack, Tiny Living Stuff.
Either way, these bunk beds offer more storage space, including where your Sim children will be snoozing at night.
2. Vintage Bunk Bed Recolors
Take a Look at This CC for Vintage Bunk Bed Recolors
Although they were only recently added to the game, bunk beds are far from a new concept in real life.
In fact, they date all the way back to the Medieval era and have been utilized in everything from Navy ships to children’s bedrooms.
Let’s face it, it’s not easy to fit multiple people into one space and still provide everyone with their own bed that doesn’t touch any others. But with these options, we Simmers can make it work.
And now, even those who prefer a more vintage gameplay experience have more choices available to them.
This particular creator specializes in vintage content and has taken the base game bunk beds and given them a delightful quilt and rustic wood frame makeover.

In fact, this incredible set allows you to fully maximize all the benefits of having a bunk bed and customize every aspect of it.
You’ll be able to seamlessly integrate this into any room because the ladder is a separate decorative piece that can be placed on either side. The series includes options for single, double, and toddler beds.
If you opt for a loft bed with just one bunk up top, you can make the most of the space below with the mini desk and chair set or the dresser.
4. Parenthood Bunk Beds

Bunk beds should have been a no-brainer addition to Parenthood pack.
Managing children is definitely easier when you have bunk beds in both real life and the game.
Luckily, there are CC creators like Illogical Sims who have come to our rescue.
Their loft bed CC is a perfect fit for Parenthood.
You can snap the bottom bunk into place, which makes it easy to use and manage.
The frame and top bunk come in the original Parenthood swatches, which look great for this particular design. Plus, the basic and modern style of these beds make them an excellent addition to any Sim’s bedroom.
5. Functional Toddler Bunk Bed
Take a look at this must-have CC for all parents and their toddlers!
This bunk bed is the ultimate trifecta of functionality, style, and fun. It features a secure stairway to the top bunk, plus storage cubbies and a shelf beside the bottom bed. It’s like a dream bedroom setup for kids!
But it’s not just about looks. This bunk bed is also highly practical. You have the flexibility to change the design of the stairs and use the bottom space for other furniture or toys.
And let’s not forget about those storage cubbies! They offer 6 slots for you to decorate and clutter as you please, making it easy to keep your toddler’s room organized and stylish.
6. University Life Bunk Beds
Explore These University Life Bunk Beds CC
The Sims 3 may have been the game that introduced bunk beds, but it was during the University Life expansion that they were made available.
While I understand the reasoning behind this choice, I still can’t help but feel that Generations would have benefited greatly from having them too.
But that’s water under the bridge now. The Sims 4 has made bunk beds a free addition to the game, which is a nice touch.
Despite being a conversion of content that’s over eight years old, these bunk beds from The Sims 3 hold up incredibly well. They look like they were made specifically for The Sims 4, with no discernible flaws or issues.
It’s amazing to think that while we’ve made strides forward in both society and as Simmers, toddlers in The Sims 3 are still younger than this content.
The design of these bunk beds is simple, with wood frames that would be expected in a university setting. The solid swatches for the blankets also add a touch of sophistication to the overall look.
If you’re a fan of The Sims 3 or just appreciate the classic design of these bunk beds, they’re definitely worth checking out in The Sims 4.
7. Little One Dresser With Fake Bunk Bed
Take a look at this amazing CC set! It offers a unique and creative way to incorporate a bunk bed into your Sim child’s bedroom.
This set includes a tall dresser with a charming retro vibe, topped off with a faux bunk bed. This is perfect for anyone who wants the look of a bunk bed without the risk of their Sims climbing up to sleep in it.
There’s no ladder to climb up to the top, but the faux bunk bed still offers some functional benefits. It has several slots that you can use to place toys, pillows, or other decor items to really complete the look.
Overall, this set is a fantastic addition to any child’s bedroom in The Sims 4. It’s cute, functional, and provides a great way to add a touch of uniqueness to your Sim’s living space.
8. Functional Triple Bunk Beds
Behold, the ultimate solution for parents of multiple children who share a bedroom: a triple bunk bed. Yes, you read that correctly. Thanks to the creative mind of Necrodog, you can now fit three beds in the space of one.
While there may be some slight bugs with the official bunk bed update, this CC set is both functional and decorative, making it a valuable addition to any Sim household.
You have two options with this set: the first is a stack of three beds, which is pretty self-explanatory. This setup is perfect for lining up the kids against one wall, making it easier to keep track of who’s getting up in the middle of the night.
The second option is a traditional bunk bed with a third bed in the middle, creating an L-shape. This unique design adds an extra element of fun and creativity to your Sim’s bedroom.
9. Mod Pod Bunk Bed (Separated)

MadameRia has transformed the basic Mod Pod bunk beds by separating the frames and mattresses, allowing you to add your personal touch and create a unique style. With a total of 50 swatches, including 17 original ones and 33 additional ones, you can create a personalized bedding set for your Sims.
The additional swatches continue the simple, affordable-looking theme of the original with solid colors, plaid, and stripes. You can now add individualism to your Sims’ bedrooms by moving away from the base game swatches we’ve been using for so long.
With this CC, your Sims can sleep in style and comfort while expressing their unique personalities.
