Be the envy of the campground with this totally cool retro-style camper! All the character of yesteryear with all the conveniences of today :)Travel in style and convenience with this surprisingly spacious 19’ pull-behind camper. The pull-out dinette and small wet-bath increase the interior space.Interior cooking facilities include a 3 burner propane cooktop, double sink, microwave and refrigerator/freezer. We have fully outfitted it with a great selection of cookware including a number of pots & skillets, cooking utensils, hot pads, dish soap, dish sponge, hand soap, colander, measuring cups, can opener, lighter, wine opener, eating utensils, cups, plates, glasses, mugs, wine glasses, individual coffee pot, toaster, microwave soup mug/cooker, cooking oil, cooking spray, a small selection of seasonings, grilling utensils, coffee, tea, sugar, powdered creamer, and a number of other odds & ends.The camper sleeps 2 in a comfortable memory foam queen size bed complete with all linens and pillows. The dinette folds down into a short twin bed (3’ wide by 5’ long—about a foot shorter than a standard twin bed). The dinette provides sleeping for one child or a short adult.Why haul everything but kitchen sink with some RV rentals? Ours is stocked & ready to go! We even provide extras like board games, marshmallow roasting sticks, rechargeable flashlight, linens (sheets, towels, bath mat, pillows), two lawn chairs, and whatever else we can think of that you might need. No need to bring a U-Haul load of stuff for the family vacation! Just pack clothes & food and you’re off on the adventure :)A little word on the wet-bath—when we say “itty-bitty”, that’s as in Really itty-bitty! The toilet is standard size, but you ain’t gonna’ want to read the Sunday paper in there or anything—know what I mean? There is a shower over the toilet and it provides nice hot water for a shower in a pinch, but you’re probably going to want to shower in the campground bathhouse if you prefer more that one and a half square feet of shower space :-)The camper is not pet-friendly due to the leather dinette. Pet claws will scratch the leather. Mo exceptions. No smoking inside the camper or within 25 feet of the camper. Please don’t bring smoky clothing inside the camper either as the smell cannot be removed easily.The camper has heat & air conditioning.**What about camping off-grid or in non-electric campgrounds?
Great question. In case you didn’t know, most national park campgrounds do not have electric or sewer hookups. There are also numerous primitive sites in the Cherokee National Forest in the Monroe County area. Many features in the camper can be used off-grid. There is a 40-gal fresh water tank and smaller black water & grey water tanks. We have a portable black-water tank to haul and dump waste water at a campground dump site if you are camping more than a couple of days & need to dump those tanks. The water pump is battery operated and the water heater runs on propane so you can take brief hot showers off-grid. The stove is propane so works fine, but the microwave, coffee pot & toaster require electric connections. There is a pour-over coffee maker & tea pot. The air-conditioner & vent fans require electric (small bath vent fan does run on DC). A portable 12-volt DC fan is located in the storage bay. It provides some air movement, but is fair useful to pull in cool air at night. The fridge & freezer can be operated on propane. The heater is propane but the heater fan requires battery or electricity. It will work for a while on a fully-charged battery, but typically runs down the battery after about 3-5 hours so the heat is no longer available then. We suggest you bring heavier sleeping bags if you plan to camp off-grid in colder seasons. There are two 12-volt DC outlets to charge your cell phone or run other 12 volt accessories you wish to bring. However, there is no cell service anywhere inside the national park anyway. It is possible to run one Cpap machine for about 5 hours or so with a fully charged camper battery and our 400-watt pure sine-wave inverter (provides by request). Ask us about specifics if you need this capability. The battery can be recharged by plugging into a car or truck’s trailer light outlet (if you have the correct one to match our camper). We have been able to recharge the RV battery by running our truck about 30 minutes on idle. We don’t have a generator, but if you have one you could use it to recharge the battery. We’ve tried recharging with the built-in Zamp solar port but have never had much success. Also, solar power is fairly useless in most area campgrounds because they’re almost all very well shaded.
We offer delivery & setup for $100 (round-trip) within Blount County, TN. There are a number of nice campgrounds in Townsend, TN which is just outside the Cades Cove area of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. The Cades Cove Campground and Tremont Campgrounds inside the national park are in Blount County. The Abrams Creek Campground in the national park is about a mile from us but only permits tents and campers under 13’ in length so we can’t take the camper there unfortunately.Delivery to Sevier County (Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge area and several national park campgrounds are in Sevier), Knox County (Knoxville), Loudon County (Loudon & Lenoir City) or Monroe County (Vonore, Madisonville area) is by request and ranges from $150-$200 depending on the location.In most cases we prefer to deliver the camper, but we would consider renting the camper for you to haul for longer trips. Please message before booking a vacation outside the listed counties or if you would like to haul the camper on your own. (Too heavy for minivans or sedans, requires a truck or an SUV with hauling package and installed trailer brakes.)***Camper delivery & pickup available Mon thru Sat***
If your vacation begins or ends on Sunday, please book the campsite an extra night so we could deliver or pickup on Saturday or Monday.
We are unable to provide pick-up or delivery on Sundays because Ben is a pastor and we do not have enough time, even in the afternoon, to deliver or pick it up. There are no exceptions.
