It’s finally time to share a few pics of the inside of our Oliver Travel Trailer! Last September I posted, Why we chose the Oliver Trailer — and I kind of left you hanging. Sorry about that…
Oliver Trailer Tour
In short, we picked up our trailer in October of last year… and we call him Ollie. We took one trip, then he went into storage for the winter months. Womp womp womp. Since then, a few more trips to Branson have taken place.
Certainly, these trips to Branson have been called ‘practice trips.’ Haha. They allowed us to figure out what we need for functionality and gave the dogs some time to adjust to a much smaller space. The first trip (or two), were NOT easy. Why? First of all, we were not prepared and the dogs were terribly restless.
However, we’ve come along way, friends! Our latest trip was a week long and it went FANTASTIC. Having a crate for Parker to sleep in at night was just what the doctor ordered. Steve and I both worked comfortably, we cooked/barbecued and realized that we’re officially ready to hit the road. We’ll be going West after I’ve fully recovered from my upcoming surgery and our scheduled visit to St. John’s, Newfoundland in July.
Oliver Travel Trailers are the best
travel trailers on the market so that you can
explore the world and do it in all four seasons!
Let me first give you this disclaimer — the interior of the Ollie is light and bright! Sooooo, photographing it isn’t exactly easy. Nevertheless, you’re going to get a peek into our tiny home away from home, on wheels. We absolutely LOVE our Oliver Travel Trailer…. as do many others. Ollie has been the talk of a few campgrounds we’ve visited already (wink-wink).
Sleeping Area
Let’s start in the back of the trailer — where the beds are. Yes, I said beds (with an ‘s’). This isn’t a permanent housing situation, so we chose to go with twin beds, allowing for more walking room and not having to set up and tear down a bed every day.
The night stand and drawer were a selling feature too. In addition, mounting the TV from the ceiling provides storage and versatility.
We also had a laguna table installed (not pictured, but the stand and tabletop is inserted into that metal bracket between the beds). This provides an additional work space that can be set up (aside from the dinette area). Since Parker likes to be close to mama, this will most likely be the spot I will work from (when necessary).
The Oliver Travel Trailer is a brand of
high quality fiberglass travel trailers
manufactured and headquartered
in Hohenwald, Tennessee.
The bedding is from the Opal House Collection at Target and the navy throw blankets are from Amazon.
Kitchenette
The kitchenette and pantry are between the bed area and the dinette. The kitchenette is on one side with a couple of propane burners, a refrigerator and microwave. In addition, the drawers provide so much great storage — and they’re so sleek looking!
And across from it is the pantry area.
I think it’s a decent size pantry for two! And this paper towel/towel holder I found at Target works PERFECT over the cabinet door.
Dinette
And the dinette is perfect for Steve and I to dine at and/or work at. On the other hand, the dinette can be turned into another twin bed, perfect for a third guest.
Bathroom
The bathroom is at the other end of the Oliver Travel Trailer. Having a wet bath is perfection. We haven’t showered in it yet, but it’s a decent size bathroom and I love knowing that I don’t have to use campsite facilities if I don’t want to…. and I really don’t want to (haha).
To the right of the bathroom is our one and only closet. I’ve gotten very creative in there for storing our Swiffer, shoes and so much more!
And that’s it! Honestly, these pictures don’t do it justice. However, it does give you an idea of how beautiful these trailers really are. We couldn’t be happier with this purchase.

Wow! Beautiful trailer Kelly! I am sure you guys will enjoy it to the fullest! My eyes popped too though when I saw you’ll be making a trip to my Province of Newfoundland and Labrador in July! We don’t live in St. John’s, but we will be there some time in July to go wedding dress shopping with our daughter! It’s a beautiful Province and I hope you have a great trip and the weather is agreeable.
Kelly Rowe says
Hi Lisa! Thanks so much for checking out the trailer. My husband was born and raised in St. John’s, so this will be our second visit since we’ve been married. It is sooooo beautiful. I’m excited to go back and have my camera in tow. Here’s the post from out first visit: https://livelaughrowe.com/the-beautiful-province-of-newfoundland/ It’s a small-small world… HUGS!
Lisa says
Hi Kelly, thanks for sharing your pictures of your visit to Newfoundland and Labrador. You certainly captured some of the beautiful essence of our Province. I live in the Labrador portion of our Province but have been to St. John’s and other parts of the Island many times. I am glad you had a chance to visit again. It’s lovely that you have some personal ties that gives you many reasons to return! :). By the way, I love your blog and all your projects. Your creativity is amazing. I am wanting to try some DIY items for our daughter’s wedding next summer, but don’t have the courage to know where to start…haha. Wish I was half as talented as you are! Take care

Hi Kelly,
These are great pics! We are looking in buying an Oliver and wondered what you tow yours with. Have you gotten very much use out of it? Any regrets? Any insight would be so helpful.
Marie says
Hi! We put money down on an Oliver! I’m wondering what color counter top , upholstery and floor you picked. They look great!
Kelly Rowe says
Hi Marie! Congratulations. Our countertops are the Fiber-Granite Tahoe (Grey), the flooring Step-Up Knox 890, and our upholstery is Tuxedo Gray IN109. Since we’ve had ours a few years, the options may have changed a bit. Definitely ask them if they have those or what they have that might be similar. So excited for you.
Julie McCollough says
You mentioned getting a crate for your fur baby. I was wondering what size and where you put it. Thanks!
Karen says
Hi Kelly – It’s now June 28, 2021 and I just came across your post as I was looking for discussions about bedding for Oliver trailers. We pick up our Legacy Elite II next month and are very excited! But also very confused about appropriate bedding. We’ve seen lots of talk about specialty mattress pads and sheets made specifically for the twin beds in the Oliver, but wonder if regular standard twin size bedding would also work OK. Would much rather not have to get custom-made bedding if at all possible, given the price, which is also increased by shipping and exchange, since we live in Ontario, Canada. You mention that your bedding came from Target, which tells me you went with standard bedding. Two years later, are you still happy that you went that route? Thanks so much, and btw, your Ollie looks terrific!
Kelly Rowe says
Hi Karen! Congrats on your purchase of the Legacy Elite II. Our bedding is regular standard twin-size bedding. We just tuck more of the comforter under the bed on the backside — but it totally works and I wouldn’t recommend getting anything custom-made bedding. Of course, that’s my opinion; however, I didn’t know they made custom bedding for our mattresses. Even if I did, I wouldn’t make that investment and we love our bedding, no regrets. The one and only thing I hate about the beds is how heavy the custom mattresses are… I have a bad shoulder, so making the beds is quite a workout. Getting old problems. Haha.
