The Kootenay model is named after a mountain range up in British Columbia. Jon, one of the owner’s of Tru Form Tiny, in the 70’s found himself with a new baby up in BC where the Kootenay mountain range is. Fondness for the beautiful wilderness and the Canadian hospitality, it only seemed right to name one of our tiny models after the Kootenay range!
We offer 3 travel trailer models: Payette, Kootenay, or Verve. The difference between the 3 models are the floor plans including bedrooms, kitchen style, lofts and bathrooms. Still confused? No worries, here’s some information broken down to help!

- Most open layout
- Larger loft

Tiny Living featured a couple of our Kootenay Models on their blog, which includes plenty of pictures to get a better sense of the interior and exterior of these tiny’s.
This 28′ Urban Kootenay has a combination of black standing metal and clear cedar siding that gives it that chic urban look. The owner of this tiny customized it to include a bump out nook, a built in couch, and a XL dormer. Make sure to check out the photos of the “L-shaped” grey quartz peninsula kitchen! This tiny belongs to the Cunningham family, as known as “@threetinyhams” on instagram- go check out their house!
The other tiny home featured is the 28′ Country Kootenay which has a queen bed on the downstairs floor and a king on the upstairs floor. We love the slide out addition at the end of the L-Shaped counter!

Now let’s talk pricing… Kootenay’s start at $75,900 but averages around $80,000-150,000 depending on the add-ons or the tiling, siding and other material you want in the interior/exterior. Now that you have a better idea of the models, you can design your own tiny to get a better idea of how much your customized tiny would cost!
