Lil Snoozy

Have you looked at Casita? They are well built - we looked at them before buying ours and decided we wanted a little bigger.

check out their 16 footer (IIR) with a side table with two chairs and a larger dinette in the back that you could make up into a bed and leave it made up.

I fully understand your dislike for hotel rooms. However, one thing they do bring to the equation is a bathroom. I would think for $20k you could find a small TT with a bath.

I know a few people with Snoozy trailers and they seemed to like them. I've been inside about 3 different ones. The jacknife sofa was comfortable and the layout works well. Some owners have remarked about condensation on the walls in cold weather, and that's probably the worst thing I have heard.

I have an empty one (no interior) for hauling around the books and gift items I sell. The frame and shell seem plenty sturdy. I backed into something and broke out some of the outer fiberglass near the corner, but it didn't penetrate all the way through and a canned fiberglass repair kit put it right again. I was unhappy in the first season with the fact that they provided a wider than normal (8.5') axle on mine, but I guess it was just because they didn't have a way of knowing how top heavy I might load it and they wanted to make it extra stable; they don't do that with the travel trailers.

Check out the FiberglassRV forum for more comments from owners. A couple of the members there have traveled pretty extensively with theirs already.

For that kind of money, these at least have a bathroom www.eggcamper.com

I agree with the disdain for motels. Which is why winter here sucks....

huag,
The Lil Snoozy has a bathroom about the same size as the Egg. The difference is the LS uses a cassette toilet with a 4.5 gallon tote instead of a black tank.

I've had both porta-potti and black tank (a couple of each), and I now prefer the porta potti for its convenience of being able to empty it just about anywhere (cassette would work the same).

The sliding door on the Lil Snoozy's wet bath is pretty nifty.

For what they want for that, you can find a REAL nice lightweight TT for the same price or lower if used.

The big problem I see is there is NO propane to that TT.

They show it using one of those little generators. So you would have to use the gen to heat your water?
Biggest problem there is the limited hours you can run a gen in a CG and that many CG's do no allow them at all. And those little gens are 'loud'.

IMHO too high priced for what it is and would put a lot of limitations on your camping.

We are purchasing this for specific use and do not plan on boon docking. We both like the idea of being all electric and if you are plugged in why do you need propane or a generator, though we may carry one for backup. It also appears to be much stronger than your traditional sticks and staples trailer. No floor to rot and the wood structures appear to be glued and screwed in to place from the pictures I have seen. Did I mention the queen bed? We are hoping to drive to the factory in the next few days or weeks to see one first hand.
Rockhill, there is an old saying in the automotive performance industry, "Fast, cheap or good. You only get two".
