Depends on what the "Queen" size is really called. A regular or standard queen is 60 X 80 inches, short queen is 60 X 75 inches, and the three-quarter queen is 48 X 75 inches. All are found in RV's. You could call Heartland and ask.
Looks like a 74 inch queen. The review is on the 2017, but I don't think the dimensions have changed. See: https://www.trailerlife.com/rv-gear/rv-news/at-home-in-the-heartland/

One thing I've learned about RVs is there is no standard mattress sizing. My first camper had a king label, and if we slept sideways, stacked front to rear, it'd fit three people. As I need frequent pee breaks I slept on the outside; my bride had to crawl over me to get in/out. The third position didn't get mattress access (poor Sassy, my boxer). Besides its' orientation it was comfortable.
My second unit was labeled a Queen; I suspect it was designed for very little people; side to side it was - at best - snug, however front to rear it was too short for both of us (5'6"). For one person, sleeping diagonally, it was comfortable.
Learning from those two experiences it became one of our shopping points with our next unit. We're now both quite happy with our Bighorn mattress (a modified king), both in comfort and actual size.

If your wanting to replace the mattress, I suggest getting a memory foam mattress. Wal-Mart has them in stock and their 8" thick. Amazon has an 11" version that is real comfy for about the same price. Zinus is the maker. The cloth cover will come off of them and exposes the foam portion. I cut both of mine to fit with a long serrated knife. Bought a mattress cover and it works like a dream! hope this helps out....
