Knotty Pine Cabins is an Edmonton, Alberta-based company focused on creating weather-ready camping trailers that are compact but efficiently designed to be easily movable. The Glamper trailer appears as a nondescript trailer when stored, but will open to reveal a mini cabin that can be ready for use in just 10-minutes upon arrival at a campsite or destination. The Glamper features walls made with Douglas fir wood that has been paired with a water-repellent exterior finish to ensure it will withstand years of use.
The Glamper from Knotty Pine Cabins is built on an aluminum trailer that will offer enhanced rigidity without increasing weight too much. The trailer starts at $10,994 with options for Small and Large available.
