- Camp-Inn has been building teardrop trailers for over two decades, which means they know a thing or two about keeping them on the road longer. Designed to last 40-50 years on the road in extreme weather and rough road conditions, these trailers are not your typical teardrop campers. Join us as we explore the secrets behind their exceptional durability and craftsmanship. Plus witness the innovative features and designs that set Camp-Inn apart. From smart storage solutions to eco-friendly materials, these trailers are a true testament to modern engineering and sustainability. Whether you're a seasoned camper or a first-time adventurer, the Camp-Inn Factory Tour will leave you with a newfound understanding of what it takes to protect a teardrop trailer from leaks, vibrations, and the natural process of expansion and contraction at the trailer joints.

I had to pinch myself because I could not believe someone has built such a beautiful work of art. When the RV industry on a racing to see who can make the biggest pile of poop along comes a company that has passion, dignity and self respect. WOW! Bravo fine gentlemen. If you made one the size of my 19” Bambi, my wife and I would be running to knocking at your door.
This company did such a phenomenal job of making every detail count. My absolute favorite part is that they had people with multiple abilities in mind. Acknowledging that those in wheelchairs want to get it in nature tugs at my heartstrings ❤. Thank you for giving us this walk through; I learned so much!
Couldn't agree more!
I just pulled my 550 teardrop for 200 miles and am sitting inside with the door open watching a lovely river float by, watching your video and looking around mine. I've pulled it for 12 years. The term land yacht is true. It's so beautiful inside. The varnished wood has patina to a lovely golden glow.
Craig and Cary have both been involved in keeping my teardrop up to date and graciously handled any repairs needed.
This/these trailers can be bought with extras that could bring it up to a $30, 40. Or 50,000 range. Just depends on the extras you want.
This teardrop has traveled America, been up and down some great and narley roads. Been maulled by bears and their lesser cousin the raccoon. All sorts of bugs and other critters. Lots of weather!: wind, hail, lightening, thunder, snow, and just plain lovely like right this minute as I type.
There were about two choices of teardrop trailers in 2010. I've enjoyed watching Drew's reviews on all the choices now as the one he has in build for his family. I'd probably still choose a campinn.
As always...thanks Drew.
This has to be up there with being one of my favorite comments ever. I can almost smell the location you described. It is comments like these that are most beneficial for the community. It is one thing for me or a manufacturer to talk about a trailer. But hearing from someone who has had theres for 12 years speaks volumes. Thank you so much for sharing this Jenn. You have me excited to get out there. I haven't been in my teardrop for 2 days and I already have itchy feet.
Thanks Drew. Today was a 280 mile easy pull day. Sitting again in the td with the door open, in Eastern Montana looking out at a beauty of a forest. And here is a short raccoons in the rain, forest in Texas story: the raccoons are climbing up the hitch and front bump out, looking down at me through the fantastic fan, then sliding off the galley hatch. Now doesn't every one want a teardrop?
Mauled by bears?

Why do you not insulate your trailers?
Their level of craftsmanship is on another level. It’s like food for the soul.
You described it so well. "Food for the soul."
Looks like something you could park in the back yard and hang out in watching college football. 🏈
Install cable TV, and add a cooler and snacks! 😀
@@JackFalltrades So true! Wait until you see the red trailer I am currently hauling around. When I look at it, I think it would make a great Husker football tailgating trailer.
@@PlayingwithSticksDo they make them in FSU Noles garnet and gold? 😀
Haha! I bet they can.
It’s refreshing to see a company build for longevity and not just nice enough to get you back in a few years for a new product.
If you buy a new trailer you get the benefit of new technologies. And selling your dilapidated old trailer help poor people like me also get to experience camping.
Old stuff has style. I appreciate new campers but my heart belongs to older campers.
I absolutely loved my visit to Camp-Inn. I learned so much. I hope this video gave you a little more insight into the great things they are doing over in Wisconsin. Thanks Craig and Cary for sharing your knowledge with all of us.
What were the likes and dislikes?
Well, the raindrop is clearly the Cadillac of teardrops. I love Camp Inn's dedication to quality.
I have to agree - it's really nice to see that some companies still 'build up to a quality and not down to a price.'
What america needs is a good, solid, affordable aluminum camper shell. tall, and short sizes! not like the cheap older units.
I’m a journeyman carpenter and I grew up making furniture with my Father. I love what you guys are doing! Very nice work!
Wow, on so many levels. If I ever buy a teardrop... this would be the one! This has so many well thought out aspects, and I love the look.
As a guy who can usually fix pretty much anything around the house with stuff from the junk drawer and a background in commercial refrigeration, I think this is the most beautiful, well thought out and well engineered teardrop anyone could possibly want. The craftsmanship appears to be just amazing and unrivaled.
I watched the tour video that Cosmo Weems made a couple of years ago. While he was a die hard Vestibule owner, I sensed his total appreciation for the Camp Inn. In typical fashion, Cosmo grilled both Cary and Craig over the details of the Camp Inn models. Thank you for providing video. I’ve owned my Camp Inn Ultra 560 for over 3 years as I tow it with my Subaru Outback. I can honestly say there is nothing like it on the rode.
As beautiful as these trailers are and the level of craftsmanship I don’t think the price is all that bad. Thanks for having them give us a tour. Another great informative video Drew ! 👍
I'm right with you there. When I was going through the tour I thought, great trailer, but what is this price going to be? Just like the the High Camp trailer I was surprised this was coming in at the middle to upper lower level of teardrop pricing. Great seeing you on here. I feel so bad. I haven't had a chance to watch any of your videos this summer. We are still in transition mode. It feels like when this all settles down I would have spent the better part of a decade in transition. I am so thankful I have a patient wife. Haha.
@@PlayingwithSticks No worries Drew, I’ve just started fly tying as a way to pass my time while I recover from having Achilles Surgery two weeks ago today. Even being laid up one can only watch so much RUclips. Gonna be a long recovery and at least 2 more weeks not being able to put any weight on that foot. I’ll be happy to get into a walking cast but I’m afraid my kayak fishing season is over until next spring. I’m blessed to also have had a very patient and loving wife for the last 42 years. ✌️
Beautiful trailers, too bad they don't have a stand up option.
I have owned a Campinn 550 and have a 560 on order for a September delivery. Campinn offers many’s options to suit the owners needs. The quality of construction and customer support are amazing.
Thanks for sharing this. We love having owners chime in. That really is what we aim for here in the comment section. To get some owners in who can share their thoughts as well as answer some of the questions that people have regarding the builds and usability.
I own one and can say these trailers are great! I bought mine new in 2018 and have had zero problems with it. The customer service after the purchase is second to none.
Thanks for sharing Bryan! Nothing beats owner feedback on here.
Best looking teardrop trailer i have seen in 52 years ,
I am Scottish and have travelled all over in my wee 2 berth awesome memories .
keep up the good work.
Never overlook the marine industry and gear....one of the harshest environments you can find. These guys are using hard lessons learned by the marine folks and implementing them with good effect on teardrops. One of the things I love about my Kimbo is the marine components they use in it and the inspiration of the design coming from submarines...the Whale hand pump for water...the Dickinson Newport heater/fireplace both are utterly reliable pieces. Thanks for highlighting these guys again Drew...they deserve all the attention and accolades they can get!
I will have to take a closer look at Kimbo's components. The two items you mentioned I have never heard of before. I am going to take that as a good sign of an innovative company.
This is a business that cares about their product and longevity incredible wish I could afford one for my family
As an owner of a fairly large travel trailer with many bells & whistles and a also a hunter who uses a pop-up, I'm thoroughly impressed. It's a pleasure to see good thought, good design, good materials, good workmanship and an overall quality product. Bueno!
I love their level of craftsmanship. Seriously considering one for the future because what I really want doesn't exist. I love the size of the Bend Teardrop 6x12 because we are not small or short people and that bunk is actually realistic for my 5' tall 8 year old and our dog. But the build quality, at least from reviews I have read, leaves a lot to be desired. I wish Camp Inn made a larger model with space for kids that aren't tiny.
I'm always saying, they don't build them like they used to. These guys have taken my statement personal because it looks like they are really building them to last. Bravo.
Great camper, hope they continue manufacturing for another 40 years
That’s what I hope as well. I hope they have predecessors ready to take it over.
Wow! These are works of art. I feel the price is reasonable for this level of craftsmanship.
I completely agree. For the craftsmanship and longevity anyone would be hard pressed to find a trailer at a better price.
As a 560 owner I can attest to the quality of a Camp-Inn. You cannot go wrong with one. And what the video didn't cover is that the customer service provided by these guys is absolutely second to none. It's great to know you can call Cary any time and get help with anything involving you trailer. Super product and super great people to deal with.
Great point on the customer service. We cover that quite a bit in the next video. The Camp-Inn rally really opened my eyes. When I meet a teardrop owner they typically talk about the trailer. Camp-Inn owners talk about Craig and Cary.
That’s good to know. Costumer Service can make or break a company.
This is a dream I'll never own. My father built fibreglass boats and designed and prototyped the hulls and deck's. I was fortunate enough to be taught how to design and install all the interior. Y'all are 👌👌 excellent. Now at 65 and retired from the service I just can't swing it. Great job and video. Thank you
Very cool going through the building process. They look really good. Glad to hear that someone is attempting to make a trailer that will last many, many years. The price was high, but not as high as I expected.
Glad you appreciated it. Like you, I really appreciate seeing a builder take pride in his work and ensure the end user has something that will last.
Hi Drew... so glad to see you show the road toad abode at the end... as I think you know, that is what I got from Camp Inn June a year ago... and absolutely love it... well built, Craig has been very receptive when I had questions.. even gave me a booklet with the wiring diagram, and edited version as I had extra outlets put in... for those who are looking for well made less expensive camper from this quality company maybe look at the road toad... mine has solar panels up top, rain sensored maxx fan, roof bars, is hot red (adorbs), battery is up front so I can use and charge my jackeries in the back when traveling...my plan is to go off grid and I have been told with the jackeries and built in panels I should have no problem... I am single solo senior and feel very safe in my abode...you mentioned you have a red td.. is it the abode?? thanks again for highlighting this company... they treat you right and want their customers to be happy...
These type of comments are gold. Thank you so much for sharing this. It really is the customers that set Camp-Inn apart. May was just telling me they have an almost cult like following. In a good way. Haha. It is so true! The red teardrop is a Bean. It is taking the place of our trailer until we can figure out how to get it road legal. Baby steps.
These are amazingly gorgeous, like tiny yachts on wheels! You've introduced me to a whole new world. Thanks for the tour!
Glad you enjoyed the tour. I have heard other people describe these as yachts on wheels. I think I will start using that phrase. I like it!
@@PlayingwithSticks awesome! That's the only other place I've seen such quality.
@@suzannecranford6819 I have noticed the three best traditional teardrop manufacturers all have taken inspirations from the sailing and boat community.
@@PlayingwithSticksI've heard of old school Cadillac land yachts, Drew. These are beautiful camp yachts 😊 With the stainless steel cladding, this would look awesome behind a Cybertruck! Thanks for the factory tour, that's one impressive shop
@@PlayingwithSticks and they should. The marine industry has had centuries of practice and knows its stuff!
Very well made and in my neck of the woods. Great product guys. Thanks 😊
Always fun to know there are great teardrops in your home state. When Valiant first started in Alaska I was really excited to know we had a quality trailer that could be picked up locally.
All the way down in Western Australia....what a beautifully built product with so much pride and thought put into every detail. This company will become the Airstream of the teardrop industry. Would love to have one parked in my farm shed for weekend's away.....
‘Simply Stunning Standard’ that puts Standard Standards to Shame. Awesome!!
Seriously impressed with the technical designs they implemented in this camping trailer. Truly a cut above everyone else IMO.
I completey agree.
That's awesome how this camper is made for people In wheelchairs! Not top many manufacturers think of people who are disabled to do certain activities or things in life generally
Nothing like the beauty and warmth of wood, they are gorgeous, wonderful craftsmanship!!!❤❤❤❤
As always, it's great to see Craig and Cary. Legends. I loved their shop years ago when I shot the documentary and I love it now too. The CNC has changed that part of their shop. Also good to hear the update on the customer who lives in his trailer. Amazing.
If you haven't seen the documentary yet, here is the link overlandtrailer.com/learn/teardrop-trailers-documentary/ You used to have to pay for this, but Mark has made it free for anyone to view. It is really neat to see the history on teardrop trailers and be inspired by some of the folks Mark met along his journey. In one section of the movie Mark stops in Necedah to visit Cary Winch. Which is one of the men you saw in this video today.
Thanks Drew! Actually both of those legends were part of the visit. My favorite part is when Craig crawls up onto the top bunk. ha ha @@PlayingwithSticks
@OverlandTrailer sounds like I need to watch it again. I completely forgot Craig was in it.
Ha ha. Yup. Star of the Bunk!@@PlayingwithSticks
These highly crafted trailers are just heart tuggers.
So nice to see someone still thinking about innovation and quality
This is the one trailer that feels on par with my Bean. So beautiful and well designed.
We agree with you there. It is those small details that Bean and Camp-Inn excel at.
This is the Rolls Royce of teardrop trailers. Beautiful.
It truly is
The words "No more Beyond" come to mine when viewing the build and design quality. Excellence at a fair price. These are heirloom creations handed down generation to generation.
I have had mine since 2005 and it’s an amazing camper.
❤
These trailers are slick and someone has thought of and included it all.. You are a great speaker who holds our attention but it helps to have a great product to sell! Bravo..💙🇺🇸💙 Thank You..
If they made a steel caged, Mad Max, non-electric, grid-down, Kevlar lined, combat hardened version, I’d consider buying one.
Love the camp inn, it is now my dream camper
Beautiful !!
Great video! The company looks organize and they know what they are doing.
During the edit the organization really stood out to me. What an efficient and clean faciltiy.
These are works of art
Love these!!!
Especially being handicapped accessible!!!
Those are supercool. Love the vintage wood and interior aesthetics. High quality indeed.
Thanks again Drew to you and your lovely family, and for all your dedicating your life to exucating others about tear-drops, square drops, and the new off road rigs.
Yes the CampInn is one of those rare "middle segment" rigs that can go just about anywhere an AWD or 4x4 can go, its true you would need an articulating hitch for the really rugged long trips or real overlanding.
But frankly, with the exception of a few, thats not the sweet spot for the CampInn.
Think of it a a baby Airstream with better quality build...its more like "glamping".
My god is that impressive. They *really* thought of everything
Very impressed!
Drew, Maya's comment on the cult-like loyalty to CampInn is spot on.
Here is one comment from the "Unofficial CampInn" forum website:
"Thanks Van and Terri for the update.
Drew does such a nice job on these industry reviews, always good natured and fair without "pitching" his favorite in comparison too much,
unlike too many other youtubers who are apparently shilling a product for compensation, which is not inherently "bad", just not useful for me.
Drew really does his homework, and lives the life. That insight is rare and highly useful.
Obtw, Reading all the comments I found this link to a cool documentary Drew provided, too, that I believe Craig stars in...
Teardrop Trailers Documentary - Overland Teardrop Trailer
Imho:
CampInns are a paean to the creative art of the original teardrops, with current gen Maker's best of tech and craftsmanship.
Rolling works of practical art.
And like a small wooden boat, they can transport you to new and wondrous places...with soul."
I really appreciate you sharing this. This made my day!
Works of Art
I am right with you there. It truly is.
Old world craftsmanship with a new world twist very nice👍🏻
I stopped in the shop as I was passing through Wisconsin. The level these guys are on are above everyone else. I really want to place an order on a 560. Lot’s going on cross the fingers hopefully sooner than later.
Yes, they really are setting the bar.
WOW, We always love watching your videos! Think I'm more into buying, I don't see myself being able to build one.
Brilliant!
Those look so cozy.
Thank you for another great video. Been watching and following for years and you've even inspired me to start my own channel!
Love the craftsmanship and attention to detail. They’re really nice.
Yes, the attention to detail is what really has me praising this trailer when talking to friends and family. Good seeing you!
Since buying a home dream is dead for most average Americans, this might be the next step to living in America.. a trailer.
Or you can just get a job.
@@SoloHiker1 you're a genius, I can't believe nobody ever thought of that before, thank you, thank you so much.
Boats too!
@@SoloHiker1
Very obvious why you’re “Solo”!! 🤮
@SoloHiker1 not everyone got an inheritance, some of us got nothing.
This is amazing to see the level of pride and craftsmanship built into these.
I will never buy a piece of crap mass produced trailer, but i would buy one of these.
Well done👍
This is quality construction..... impressive.
looks great. Quality and good price.
Id love the experience of an adventure in one of these and witness all the thought you amazing guys have put into this. The composit transition was meant to be im thrilled when people put these materials to this type of use
The inside of these are amazing. it reminds me of a captains quarters on a ship
The kitchen alone is worth a serious look at this camper - beautiful setup!
Yes, it really is beautiful.
really amazing guys , looks marine quality !!
What a great design!!
Thanks Drew! I love this camper trailer! It reminds me a lot of a Vestibule! I love the interior and galley! Very well thought out and looks to be high quality.
Hi Brad! Thank you so much for the coffee money. We have a local roaster going out of business. So we just bought a couple of bags from him knowing he will no longer be in business. Sad, but good for him and his wife. They are retiring and just looking to slow down life a bit. This trailer does have some Vistabule like traits doesnt it? I love saying trailers that are essentially pieces of art.
Glad you and May are enjoying a nice cup of coffee on me! This trailer has such a nice home like feeling to it. I think I would change the stove and fridge setup in the galley if it were me but the overall feel of this trailer is top notch!
If I can remember, I am going to add this comment to my cons section. I agree with you. It is clean and tidy, but in practice I think there would be better options.@@jgrant4520
Wow, those are really nice and sensibly priced!
This is the one i’m saving for!
Really great build, and the price is great for the fact you can have it for years!
I frigging love this!!
Impressive built for such a reasonable price in these times. That double bunk bed is so ingenious
Well engineered rather than over engineered, stunning trailer
Just gorgeous!
It really does look like a period piece doesn't it?
Nice video Drew. I was hoping you'd get a CampInn review done. They are a very talented/thoughtful manufacturer. If i wasn't a DIYer I'd definitly be looking at the CampInn.
Picked up my 550 5 weeks ago. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations. Welcome to the club!
wow these are so nice!
They look like good quality.
I grew up in that town. I'm glad they are still in business. We currently have a Runaway 4x8, but I would love to upgrade to the 560 with the Bunkbed in the future.
Love Runaway. But I could see how the 560 would be a great trailer as well.
Hi- That was an awesome video. For me if I was in the market for a trailer, this factory would be the first on my list to travel to. I was highly impressed. And comparably speaking I thought they had the best price for what you are getting. Just my take. Thanks for taking your time in producing these wonderful videos. Have a beautiful day!! Illinois, USA
Glad you enjoyed this. And you made a really great remark here. I think everyone should start their search at a company like this. It really helps you have the right eyes when visiting other manufacturers. When I first got into this I thought I knew what I was looking for. But boy was I wrong. Once I saw it done right, inferior trailer building practices were much easier to spot.
I’m a self confessed perfectionist. Mind blown!
Nice! Love it.
The Rolls Royce of Campers. These are exquisite and beautiful.
That is a great description.
Man, these look fantastic! With the quality of build, I thought they would be much more expensive too.
We had similar thoughts in terms of pricing.
It would look so cool to use that trailer as the wheelhouse of a mini fishing trawler.
CANADA 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 🍁 = LOVE'S U GUY'S ❤❤
Love it!
nice looking unit.
Really interesting and fun. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it! You are most welcome.
Very nice!
I checked the website and shocked how reasonable they are prices are unreal considering quality. I will start saving!
Love hearing that!
i like this company's product.
Love the detailed video….bet the other manufactures wont do that. Product look’s superior!
Sooo nice! I want.
Quality quality quality
Works of art guys! Kudos. I may be a future customer
Top quality--beautiful. Like owning the best sailboat on the water. Amazing and wonderful customer service. Tried and true camper built for action.
You described this trailer perfectly!
You run a tight ship, gentlemen. More than impressive design. Good on ya, mates!
Wow, wow, wow!! I was expecting $40K plus, which I would be willing to pay.
Thanks for bringing them to our attention. You’ve got me 🤔!!
YES!!!! Love introducing great trailers to the community.
Wow! What a beautiful trailer! 😮
It truly is. I have been fortunate to walkthrough at least 15 of these in campgrounds across the country. Each one is so unique in the way folks decorate them and create their outdoor living room.
@@PlayingwithSticks I was thinking how nice my ship's bell clock would look on the wall! 😀
Nice!VERY!!!
