Before starting to build a tiny home, it is important to actually get a feel for one by taking a tour or staying overnight. Stay in one of their 7 unique tiny homes to better understand your needs and the flow that goes into tiny living.
The Caravan Tiny House Hotel allows you to reserve a Tiny House overnight so you can get an understanding of the homes. They also offer tours in conjunction with some workshops as well as on their own.
The Caravan is in a great area of Portland known for their food carts and restaurants. It is surrounded large walls and a fence that separates it a bit from the area noise. Staying here means you can walk around the vibrant streets and participate in the lively night life. They have bikes available for rent since Portland is such a bike friendly town.
