Anna and Jeff had enjoyed traveling and camping with their respective families growing up, and wanted to share that experience with their own kids. In October 2017 they took the plunge and purchased a bus and began the two-year-long conversion process. After being on the road for a couple of years (and expecting another child!), they decided to do an upgrade which included an incredible loft!
The loft acts as a bedroom for their two oldest kids and a game room. The other three children have bunks on the lower level and there’s a primary bedroom in the back of the rig for mom and dad. In order to feed everyone, they have a large kitchen with a giant farmhouse sink. What do you think of their set-up?

The “Yellowstone Yurt” in Maryland demonstrates how a wooden yurt structure can deliver the comforts of a full home within a distinctive circular footprint. This custom-built dome combines a studio-style main living space with a bathroom addition and outdoor sauna, creating a complete retreat tucked into the forest.
Main Living Space
The primary dome houses all main living functions in an open studio layout:
- Sleeping: Queen bed plus pull-out couch for additional guests
- Kitchen: Full cooking facilities with retro mint green appliances
- Living area: Comfortable seating with forest views
- Heating: Wood-burning stove for cozy warmth
A partial wall provides visual separation between the bedroom and kitchen areas without breaking up the circular flow of the space.

Lilac siding and a bright yellow door make this one of the more cheerful tiny houses we’ve toured, but the interesting part is structural: it has a three-foot slide-out. Slide-outs are common in RVs and rare in tiny houses on wheels, and this one buys back enough width in the middle of the home for a dinette and couch big enough to seat an entire family, which is normally the first thing a THOW floorplan gives up.
The rest of the build is genuinely upscale. A U-shaped kitchen wraps three walls in cabinets, and the bathroom carries a full-sized tub and shower plus a washer/dryer combo. There are two lofts: a main bedroom loft with large windows, and a smaller one that works as a kids’ space or office. It was built RVIA-certified in 2021 with propane, batteries, and water tanks, so it can run off-grid, though it was living hooked up to city services in the LuxTiny community in the White Mountains of Arizona.
Editor’s note: this home was listed at $95K in 2023, with the option to take over the existing community lease or tow it elsewhere, and it is no longer available. We’re keeping the tour up as a reference on slide-outs and community living. For homes on the market now, see below.

Here’s a gorgeous home built by Tru Form Tiny that went looking for a second owner. Originally purchased for $140K in 2021 and later listed pre-owned for around $100K in Bonny Doon, California, it’s a great example of how well these luxury builds hold their value — and how much home you can get by shopping the resale market. If you’re hunting for a used Tru Form today, the builder regularly has pre-owned units available; we’ve rounded up three more recent listings near the bottom of this post.
The house has everything you could want, including a spacious galley kitchen with tons of storage, a cozy living room under a storage loft, and a main loft bedroom with storage stairs. There’s even a full bath/shower in the back of the house with a washer/dryer unit. What do you like most about this one?

Aaron had enjoyed sleeping in his car as a teenager when hanging out with friends, but it took many years and the events of 2020 to finally convince him to try van life. He and his wife were able to go remote with work, so they bought a Ram ProMaster.
The van was beautifully converted, complete with a fixed bed, a kitchen with an oven, and a hidden toilet. He designed the entire build around fitting bikes in the garage, so they can enjoy cycling in all the places they end up.

Karol and Austin are the bubbly and awesome couple who built this beautiful Ram Promaster. On the cusp of buying a home, they chose to jump into van life instead—and created one of the coziest cabin-like conversions we’ve seen.
Karol had wanted a closet and bathroom, and they managed to fit both beautifully. They have a nice projector setup for watching TV and a lovely kitchen with butcher block countertops and a deep sink. The warm wood interior gives the van a true cabin feel that’s hard to find in most conversions.
