Are you a Tiny House dreamer located on the east coast? If so, mark your calendars for this extra-special Tiny House road trip tour, featuring two Tumbleweed Tiny House RVs! The road trip officially kicked off this past weekend at the New York Auto Show, but don’t worry if you missed the first stop. There will be more chances to tour these tinies throughout the summer.
“Everyone has been really excited to tour a Tiny House RV at the New York Auto Show.” Annie Colletti, from Thousand Trails, told us. “Most had never been inside one before.”
The two Tumbleweeds embarking on the Tiny House road trip tour are named Henry and Clara. Below is a little information about their designs.
Henry
Henry is a Tumbleweed Linden (an archived design). He features cedar siding, a full porch, and a dark metal roof. His aesthetic is sleek and contemporary. His big brother, “Atticus,” is located at the Tiny House Hotel in Welches, Oregon. You can clearly see the resemblance!
Clara
Clara is a Tumbleweed Elm. Her siding has been painted a beautiful blue. She features a full porch, as well as a sleek silver metal roof. She resembles her big sisters: “Zoe” and “Rose,” two Tumbleweeds already available for rent in Welches, Oregon, and Valley Verde, Arizona, respectively.

The Next Stop on Henry and Clara’s Tiny House Road trip:
Henry and Clara have packed their bags and started making their way to the next destination. If you’d like to tour these tinies, come to their open house event at Circle M Campground in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, on Saturday, May 20, from 10am – 6pm and Sunday, May 21, from 12pm – 4pm.

ok, I know these homes must be doing hot water on demand…I know thats what I would be doing…seen some in some of these, so I do have a question for these builders…how can you figure out what brand or size of heater to get? Is it going according to length of trailer its on, or amount of people useing it, of course if you rent them out, I am stumped on how to figure that out! Can you tell me how to figure it out…2 people all the time, more if company visits, plus portable washer in it, Can you help? oh, 25 to 30 foot home.
Hi — Could you please let us know where they will go on tour next? I’m in Jersey, all of 114 miles east of Lancaster, PA, and would much rather not drive this distance if they’ll be coming further east next. Thanks!
Hi Ana!
Thanks for your question. For a complete list of tour locations you can check out their site here: http://petiteretreats.com/tinyhouse_roadtrip.

I would love to attend one of these shows but there are never any close. When will you come to the Kansas City area?
Hi Sandra,
Thanks for your question. As of right now, this is only an East Coast tour starting in New York. You can follow their Facebook Page to see when there may be a tour in your area. We will also, of course, let our subscribers know when there are tours in their area too.
I would love to attend this event and spend the night in one of these homes from sat to sun to see if it is right for me
Consider Las Vegas,Nevada for the next road trip… Local and tourists love it….BIG HIT
We toured these houses today in Lancaster PA, it was so nice to explore these awesome tiny houses! We were even given some goodies by Petite Retreat when we got to the info booth! Everyone in attendance seemed to be enjoying the tours.
