I was looking at the Ford Transit Connect earlier because I’ve been seeing them around town lately and thought, man these would be perfect coupled up with a teardrop trailer!
So I went on a search to see if anyone out there has posted their Transit + Teardrop Trailer pictures. I didn’t get an exact match but it led me to some other cool (and unique) finds.
Did you know the Transit Connect packs the same cargo room as a pick up truck? You can really fit quite a lot in there and when you add a teardrop you can see how this can be a really fun way to adventure.
But anyway, let me show you what I did find…
A super tiny teardrop trailer with one of the world’s smallest cars along with a tiny house in the background.

Unique teardrop tiny houses… yeah, that’s the best I could come up with to describe this mini cabin.
It’s meant for camping but it has a comfortable king size bunk bed, plenty of storage, and a beautiful interior. The window is positioned on the ceiling to bring in light and breeze.
They call it the E-den. It’s even got a covered front porch and has an easy BBQ set up (part of the canvas opens up for ventilation).
Everything is fully insulated and the windows are double glazed. This is awesome!
Inside it’s 11′ by 6’9″ and 6’9″ high
Outside 14′ by 8′ and 9′ high
Deck is 14′ by 7′
The designer/builders, Timber Tradesmen, are marketing these to property owners who can rent them out to campers.

I know the title seems crazy, but it’s true…
This is a tiny house where half of it is under water.
And it’s in the shores of Lake Malaren in Sweden. And actually, it’s an Inn called Utter Inn.
It’s like a garden shed with solar panels floating in the middle of the lake that packs a kitchen, dining area, outdoor deck, and an underwater bedroom that is submerged 10 feet. It even has windows down there so you can see the water life!
How cool is this??
When you stay at the Inn you are brought there by boat (of course) from the port of Vasteras and then you are in private solitude armed with a row boat and a telephone. Rates are around $160 per night in US dollars.
Here’s a little excerpt from someone who has actually stayed there.
We had an enchanting getaway at the Utter Inn, a tiny little red house plopped in the middle of a lake outside Stockholm. Staff drove us out to our little villa on a high speed inflatable, and left us with plenty of fresh water and a plentiful breakfast. Conditions are camp-like (propane stove, latrine) but the experience was unforgettable. You open a hatch and climb down a ladder to your sleeping quarters, (two twin beds) and on all four walls are panorama windows allowing you to see the little fishies outside your submerged bedroom. Incredible! They also provided us with a raft, where we rowed to our own little island. The Utter Inn is the brainchild of an artist who also has a tree house inn called the Woodpecker, and is planning a little red Swedish house on the moon! ~ Trip Advisor

This is Pat’s original cob house (not his current residence) — a few days ago he shared his story with us — click here to read it. He also has built teardrop trailers, which you’ll learn about on that page.
Over the years he has built more than 25 cob structures. I’ve seen only seen pictures but I can tell you they’re all beautiful and one of a kind. One day I’ll make it up to one of his workshops to get first hand experience.
So let me show you some pictures of his first one — it’s a 240 square foot tiny cob home.
Man, I love these!
After you check out these pictures, I’ll send you over to Cob Works so you can visit Pat and the rest of the crew.
