Each teardrop has a story
Whether it be the company that carefully handcrafted them, the dealership that helped them find their forever home, or the family that picked it out and made the teardrop their own. Unlike many other trailer styles and RVs, teardrop campers are built, as orders come in.
The fabulous thing is that they aren’t mass produced, which makes them unique in design and style.
Gnome Homes pride themselves in building quality and durable teardrops for adventurers to create their own teardrop stories.
A Little About Gnome Homes
In 2016, Gnome Homes was founded by Cees, a Dutch craftsman who migrated over to Canada. Along with the help of his friend Eric, Cees launched into creating a name and business for himself to share the joy of modern camping with others.
After the build of a couple of prototypes, Gnome Homes was created and thrown into the world of teardrop trailers. Cees builds his teardrops with the same care and craftsmanship that he did with kitchen cabinets, years before his new company took off.
He never imagined that his love for the outdoors and camping would lead him to a purpose of providing others the same adventure opportunities. Not only do they build each teardrop by hand, but they show their clientele the process. Every step of the way. Having started in the business, solely because other companies did not mass produce teardrop trailers, Cees now realizes that is the magic behind these tiny campers.
They are individuals and deserve their own story. Let’s meet the Gnome Home models…
Gnome On A Budget
This Gnome is created for those that need a basic teardrop to fit their needs. It is the most cost effective model, and although held to the same business standards, it just isn’t as “fancy”.
That is perfect for the minimalist! This model is made from the same galvanized steel as other teardrops in the fleet, and features the following: Baltic Birch cabinets, charge controller with fuse and breaker panel, battery, multi speed fan with thermostat and rain sensor, USB charger and 12v outlets, your choice of square of round plate fenders, white steel rims, and radial tires.
Of course, if you are looking to customize with additional amenities, there is always the option to do so! We will look at those features later on.
The Backcountry GOB
The Backcountry GOB is a more rugged version of the traditional Gnome On A Budget. It does include a 4” lift kit for clearance in off road terrain. It also boasts larger tires and durable rims for all travels. It is the more affordable option to the larger off-road Yukon model.
It contains all features of GOB and is just perfect for those that need a basic option!
The Cruiser
The Cruiser is a teardrop that will leave heads turning your way along your travels!
It is stylish and will hold everything you need to be able to take to the road for a quick getaway or extended trip. It contains similar features to the GOB with the addition of: a 6” queen RV mattress and vintage exterior fender lights. The galley is a gorgeous space with many cubby holes for cargo and countertops to make meal prep work a breeze.
Upgrades can be made to the cabinetry and amenities added for your convenience.
The Wanderer
This particular model was designed to spend as much time on country backroads as it was the highways.
The Wanderer is a sturdy teardrop that was designed with higher ground clearance and durable tire and axle package. It has everything The Cruiser has, plus square checker plate fenders and additional electrical outlets. Customization is always available on The Wanderer.
The Yukon
The Yukon is the all terrain, rugged model of the Gnome fleet. It boasts of 23” ground clearance and extremely solid tires, along with axle less suspension and an off-road coupler. The Yukon has an electric brake system, LED lights through the camper, welded fenders with clearance lighting, aluminum rims, a travel basket, and a checker plate rock guard on the front of the trailer.
A truly road worth teardrop, no matter which roads you choose to go down!
