Take a tour of our little Casita trailer camper as we show you the inside and out. It’s a 2019 Casita Freedom Deluxe 17′ travel trailer that we tow with our Jeep Cherokee – and yes it even comes with a bathroom.
It is basically made up of two shells attached at the center, then attached to a base frame. This virtually eliminates seams/seals, which makes it virtually leakproof, pest-proof, and super easy to maintain.
There is also a 6-gallon water heater and a small storage area for the power cord with enough room to include an extension cord and an adapter in case you don’t park where there is a 30-amp power supply.
Being just 17 in total length, as you would expect, it is pretty compact inside. The living area is less than 14 feet long, and Marc can literally stand in the middle and touch both side walls with his arms outstretched.
At the rear of our camper, there is a bed that could be converted into a dinette area, but we leave it set up as a bed at all times. The interior walls are either fiberglass or carpet-lined for insulation and sound reduction.
On the patio side of the main area, there is a kitchen. It has a 3-way fridge at the bottom, an optional microwave, and storage at the top. It is all built into a fiberglass mold, which makes it really clean-looking and solid.
The Freedom model has two swivel chairs at a small table. The chairs are quite comfy, and the swivel is nice because you feel like you aren’t locked into a small rigid space of other units. But, unlike those models with fixed seats, this dining area will not convert to an extra sleeping area.
