This luxury tiny home was built by Newhouse Micro Homes and spent several years earning its keep as an Airbnb in East Kootenay, British Columbia — which is the most useful thing about it. A home that has run as a vacation rental has been stress-tested by strangers, and the design choices that survived that are the ones worth copying.
The U-shaped kitchen is the centerpiece, wrapping three walls in counter and cabinet space so two people can work without collisions. The bathroom carries a proper tub with a tiled shower surround, a residential toilet and vanity, and a washer/dryer unit. A thin electric fireplace sits under the wall-mounted TV, the couch converts to a second bed, and the loft bedroom is ringed with windows.
Editor’s note: this home was listed at $80K (land not included) in 2023 and is no longer available. We’ve kept the tour up as a reference on rental-proven tiny house design. Current listings are below.

Steve, Erin and their four children made a major lifestyle change after their oldest son asked if his dad didn’t love him because he was always working at the family business. They purchased a camper to spend weekends together and went some place local every single weekend! When they saw families in Florida living full-time in their RVs, they decided, why not them.
Now they have an epic toy hauler with a huge bunk room for the kids that includes their own private bathroom and plenty of space for all their toys and treasures! They even fenced in the garage door, so the kids can have a safe outdoor area to play. Enjoy the tour below.

Elizabeth suggested vanlife to Destiny as a joke, but before they knew it, the couple was leaving regular 9-5 city life behind and jumping into converting a van. Neither of them had a lot of experience, but you’d never know looking at their gorgeous home on wheels.
I love that they chose a round table-top — even though it takes up space, there are no sharp edges to bump into. They also put an oven in their van, which is on the rarer side. They also fit a fixed bed and a couch inside — so spacious!

Steve & Barbara were reaching retirement and figuring out their next step. Eventually, they settled on bus life and spent a year looking at buses. When they came across this 2007 Thomas C2 Skoolie that had only 30K miles on it, they decided to spend the $9K on it and get to work on the conversion.
The conversion is quite spectacular — with reclaimed granite countertops, a comfortable bathroom, and a cozy back bedroom. They have an excellent hand-designed front couch that turns into a second bed. What’s your favorite part of the bus?

This awesome couple has grown children and a teenager still at home, and they were ready for a big change! They got work as KOA Camp Hosts and decided to sell everything and convert a school bus into their tiny home. Because their home sold so quickly, they ended up staying with family for a bit while finishing up the conversion.
They have a teen-sized bunk room, a cozy primary bedroom, and a big kitchen with “normal” sized appliances. Two large couches welcome you when you walk in. What do you think of their conversion?

Johnny’s van life began in 2019 in a VW Bus which he loved, but ultimately he wanted some more space. So he upgraded to a Ford Transit with an incredible convertible system that can be set up in a number of wild combinations (bed, desk, dinette, and more!).
He does have a storage unit where he keeps his seasonal toys, so he only carries the adventure gear he needs for the season at hand. That’s a great option for an outdoor enthusiast like Johnny! What do you think of his rig?
