A 1960 Holiday House Head Turner

Some vintage trailers don’t just show up—they arrive with presence. This 17-foot Holiday House is one of those rare rigs that sparks conversations everywhere it goes, not because it’s flashy, but because it feels right. From the moment you step inside, it’s clear why Holiday House trailers have such a devoted following.

The wrap-around front window fills the interior with natural light, instantly making the space feel far larger than its footprint suggests. Combined with the aluminum and light wood interior paneling, the trailer has an open, airy feel that’s both inviting and timeless. It’s a layout that works beautifully whether you’re settling in for a weekend getaway or a longer stay on the road.

Dig a little deeper, and the story becomes even more impressive. According to a detailed notebook of restoration photos, this 1960 Holiday House was completely rebuilt from the frame up in 2009. It was custom-built for a car collector who had his heart set on owning a Holiday House, but struggled to find a salvageable original. The result is a thoughtfully rebuilt example of the Model 17—the final model introduced just before Holiday House ended production—making it one of the rarest of the breed.

Inside, the trailer balances vintage charm with practical comfort. There’s a full-size bed with storage tucked underneath, a convertible dinette, and a wet bath with shower. Stainless sinks in both the vanity and galley add durability and style, while smart upgrades over the years have made the trailer easy to live with and tow. From modern climate control to updated mechanicals, everything has been carefully maintained without losing the spirit of the original design.

Every few years, many vintage trailer owners come across “the one” that pulls at their heartstrings and sends them looking for a new caretaker for their current rig. This Holiday House feels like that kind of trailer—the kind that becomes the next love story for someone ready to hit the road in something truly special.
