Her Old RV Turned Affordable Tiny Dream Home

[@suzannecranford6819]

This RV is awesome. I can see why she fell in love with it. I like her kitchen renovation. She mentioned she wishes the microwave wasn't there. It's easy to remove, and she could have another storage space with just a few minutes of work. Thanks for the tour.

[@TinyHomeTours]

We love her kitchen renovation as well. So glad you enjoyed it! 🤗

[@DebbiePotter-xh7kv]

I would take out the microwave too. It’s an awesome home, I could so live in it.

[@jonclement]

I actually use my microwave more then at home. being 20s away from melted cheese is always a bonus

[@samanthalovelouise]

Removing the microwave would be easy but the amount of storage it would provide wasn’t worth the effort - I still have plenty of storage without it! Additionally I wanted to limit the amount of renovations I did since Lazy Daze is a cherished brand and is no longer manufactured I feel that’s a selling point to have almost all the original component and layout. But it’s a good consideration for the next owner!

[@ARLGD]

That's a great idea! Removing the microwave in the RV would definitely create more storage space. By the way, if you're looking for reliable power backup during your outdoor adventures, I recommend checking out the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series. It has a massive capacity, fast recharging, and even waterproof technology. It could be a valuable addition to your RV setup. Happy camping!

[@hughmyers2072]

I much prefer the older RV's, such as Lazy Days. But it is on a E350, limited to 11500lbs if I remember correctly. With it loaded that full, plus a motorbike on the rear bumper I think you should put it on a scale & verify you have not overloaded your motorhome. Enjoy your full time RV lifestyle, but do it safely.

[@fern_horst]

A 1979 Lazy Daze in this floorplan was my first RV, and I loved it. Samantha's renovations are lovely. She's truly made it a home.

[@BenjamintheTortoise]

I love the retro vibe... It's perfect and cozy! Safe travels, much love 💕😊

[@TinyHomeTours]

Agreed! The retro vibe of the older rigs are delightful. 😊

[@helened6896]

Wonderful home. I was also impressed by this young woman's maturity that came across and her great communication skills. I wish her good success!

[@samanthalovelouise]

Thank you for your kind words - this means a lot to me.

[@donnabacon4681]

OK...Even though I know these are no longer manufactured (😢), I still want one or very similar. On the hunt! LOVE!!!! THIS!! I like the way you "divided" the dining/work area from your bedroom; that is a fab idea!!

[@adventureswithgnomie6553]

Those were built to last and love the way she's making it work for her.

[@denisehutchinson5952]

This is what I'm looking for. I'm 58 and love this setup!

[@Winniebago]

You absolutely cannot beat the character of older vehicles. Parts are actually fairly easy to come by too as long as it's not too exotic

[@samanthalovelouise]

Agreed!

[@anthonyvisor8880]

That RV is a gem!! She has a great personality!!

[@gingerjolley9027]

This is my favorite Lazy Daze layout. Very nice...

[@TinyHomeTours]

It really is a great layout. Functional and homey at the same time!

[@staroceans8677]

LazyDaze are some of the best built RVs, anyone who ever purchases them are always pleased. Nice rig, nice setup. It's really a good situation.

[@milliealford8968]

LOVE this layout better than any other. The panoramic view is awesome.

[@katleman]

Yep, those windows are why I bought the same model.

[@LindaYoshi]

I have a 1996 Lazy Daze that looks just like hers! They could be twins! Lazy Daze are the best and I feel so lucky to have found mine like she did. ❤️

[@thereseshine7506]

Beautiful RV inside and out. I like her outside chair. Wish you all the best future journeys.

[@samanthalovelouise]

It’s the best camp chair I’ve ever sat in!

Beautiful motor home to live in very cozy and organized.

[@laurakramer6425]

I wish I had your adorable vehicle. I've loved the Lazy Daze RVs

[@raylenetatum8185]

Love everything about your home on wheels. Esp. the large windows and keeping your bed made all the time. 🙂 Great job on your build. Wishing you all the best. 💜

[@easteryeko9742]

THE LAYOUT IS AWESOME. I could definitely see how livable this is

[@jessicanick4964]

I have the same model, and fulltime during the winter. I go about three weeks w propane, unless im using the furnace. Im considering removing the microwave and using the space for bottles. I also removed the table, and use a lapboard if i need a desk. I also use the over cab area for storage unless im traveling w someone. Ive replaced the carpet w vinyl plank flooring, which i love. Next step is to replace the cab carpet w rubber matting. I have 140 watts of solar which is sufficient for me. My shower also rarely gets used, and stores my SUP board and other miscellaneous things. Congrats!

[@malikaeastonAllahfirstanfamily]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home, it’s very spacious love your kitchen and full size bathroom. Lot’s of storage. Keep enjoying life .

[@deladyakarobin4777]

I love her RV, it is so cozy.. I love the way she has done the back end... table/work area on one side and bed on the other.. I am with her in regards to above the cab, instead of a bed, have more storage... I also agree with the microwave... if she removes it she could have more storage.. which is done easily enough, just pull it out and unplug it. I could see myself in that rv... a bigger sink would be nice for sure.

[@camillaholst7321]

Beautiful RV, lovely vibe and a cool attitude. Thx for sharing. Safe travels ❤

[@Healthylivingwithwendi]

I bought a 99 30’ IB version. I love the color and your rig. I really wanted that color but ended up with the brown. They are great rigs and well made!

[@theroaminggnomad]

Love this rig. So much natural light, beautiful & functional.

[@angeladawn805]

This is a gorgeous, well cared for rig. Love it😊

[@highlightoftheday7058]

It's a lovely rig. Plenty of room. Nicely done out.

[@lynnecahill2859]

Very cool RV and I love her simplicity and at the same time being just as cute as a button! I wish her and her furbaby safe and happy travels! No doubt you will figure it out! 🥰🥰🥰🐾🥰

[@samanthalovelouise]

Thanks Lynne!

[@JohnS-zq8ks]

What a great rig! Wonderful design with all the glass. Might be chilly in winter, but for what it is, a spectacular example of good, classic design and appointments.

[@dmwi1549]

Lazy Daze is a very nice coach built in California. I’ve always appreciated their quality and design.

[@rosamiller2393]

Hi. U can use microwave as storage 😊

[@petertarantelli]

Love the “rear lounge” set up, those windows all around are amazing!

[@samanthalovelouise]

They are swoon-worthy ❤

[@petertarantelli]

@@samanthalovelouise I started RV shopping when I saw them!

[@katleman]

It’s known as the Twin King (TK), those windows are why I bought one two years ago

[@kimhorton6109]

Gosh, that’s nice. Very pretty on the ground. I’m glad she liked the colors, they rock.

[@carlostavares5548]

Très beau camping car vintage 👍👍👍

[@harriethunter8910]

Love the video. Lovely companion as well. Warm greetings from Australia and safe and enjoyable travels. Looking forward to your next video.

[@Dingle1234]

Gorgeous layout! I wonder if the grey upholstery was original. It's a retro design that fit's today's style.

[@emerald4660]

That's a beautiful rv I would love it

You are just gorgeous - thanks for sharing your cozy mobile home with us - Enjoy the road !!

I love that RV the layout of it is awesome Id love to have that one

[@shabbirjdana]

Its really big and awesome rv.i like to travel with you some day.👍👍👍

[@jamespaul2587]

Great set up. You might want to replace the microwave with a convection toaster oven, which will use less energy than the large oven

[@Ramblingon12]

I love your rig.

[@jasonfitzpatrick414]

Nice view out the back. I'm glad the RV is in good shape for you.

[@Asha-ww9ct]

Love that you made use of everything and that it all has a purpose

[@denisephillips9269]

Soooo much room!, nice rig. Can see why you like it. Love your furry roommate❤, scooter too. Curious to know what type of work you do remotely?....good luck, enjoy, safe travels.

[@samanthalovelouise]

I work as a design manager at a software company!

[@cynfll]

I can definitely relate! I have a '98 Lazy Daze, same floor plan and absolutely love it. I have been slowly making it my own and plan to travel at least 8 mo out of the year when I retire soon. Really like the way you have it set up. Is that the original table? Also where do you store your bicycle? On the same rack as the scooter? Have fun out there. These rigs are one the best made ones out there and there are tons of owners who are very helpful if needed. Take Care Lou!

[@samanthalovelouise]

Thank you! I enjoy this rig as well. There’s such a charm to it. I store my bike in the over cab bed area. It fits well when I take the tire off.

[@latterdaycovenantliving]

You could always unplug the microwave and still use it for storage

[@Bambi-xg3kr]

Beautiful camper - lovely doggo.

[@TinyHomeTours]

Agreed on both counts! 💖

[@cherylfightmaster1130]

AWESOME RV this is what I want, or something similar 😊thanks

[@marieneu264]

Super cute! What a deal as well!!!

[@alphpup3281]

I love your RV! I have a 2001 Lazy Daze Twin King, and have been all over in it. I recently inherited a dog, about the same size as yours, and I am not sure how he will react to traveling, Where do you keep your dog while traveling, and do you use a crate? How has it worked out?

[@samanthalovelouise]

Unfortunately she gets uneasy when we drive so we only do a couple hours at a time and wears a seatbelt! She’s never been crate trained and has her own space under the table where her bed is. She loves it

[@HighCountryRambler]

I'm with you on the microwave. My generator hardly ever works, since all I do is boon-docking it never gets used. It's just plugged into the wall behind, like any other wall outlet. Not having a oven really chaps my rear, what were they thinking? Great video.

[@GasStop]

Awesome video, we love it! Stay safe out there!

[@bee-anca236]

Wow this rig is gorg!

[@Darkangel-A-c8z]

Love it ❤, wishing I took my drivers licence now. I wish it was more popular here in the UK, it's difficult to drive around and stay in places unless you're hooked up, a bit better in the rest of Europe though

[@chicochemarcus2741]

Nice rig and you are very pretty ,good luck n b safe🎉

[@richj120952]

If you don't use the Microwave Oven, then it can be used for storage, as is! It is not a wasted space, unless you want it to be.

[@ThatGirlLib]

Most people who have microwaves and don’t use it for that end up keeping dry goods or any food that attract mice tucked away in there. My parent RV my mom put paper plates and plastic wrap/ziplock bags in theirs.

Such a shame Lazy Daze went out of business.

[@alexo3709]

She doesn't often use the shower, but she's been full time for a couple of months? I don't understand

[@TinyHomeTours]

Oftentimes nomads find it easier to grab showers in gyms or other public facilities to save on water use and propane/electricity in their rigs. :)
