You're such a positive person Bryce, thank you for showing us the Tiny Houses around the globe for the rest of us.
Now I know where I’m going to stay if I’m ever visiting Portland.
Krista Parker there's also the Tiny House Hotel, both are great places! 👍
ImDBatty1 thanks for the recommendation!
Krista Parker I could name a few more, really depends on if you want to be in the City or not... 🤔
There's also Mount Hood Tiny House Village, which is more set in nature, it's where Jenna from Tiny House Giant Journey (another UA-camr) lives...
Would love to have you come stay with us!!
I love how much Pam honored her grandad’s memory by building this tiny caboose home! What a great way to show how much those car rides to count the cars and check for a caboose , meant to her.
Dude this host is so good at his job
He's from New Zealand! :-) :-)
Yes, we can feel his enthusiasm, it's contagious!
Yes, he is charming.
UncleMack211 he likes going to the raeroad
@@Vbluevital Indeed, very charming. 😊 And enthusiastic.
What a brilliant idea to give people a taste of tiny house living, before they put the time/financial commitment! Thanks to the Tiny Digs team! This is going to be helpful to so many people.
How I wish I had money. I would try this in a second!
Yesica1993 Me, too! I live in Portland and would love to stay in the Tiny Digs with the bed downstairs (I'm not able to climb). It looks like a fun place especially in the spring or early summer when people might be outside more.

I hope you are able to do it someday.
Sign up for emails from us and watch for sales to come stay at a lower price point in off season or when we do a random special.
Get on our email list and watch for specials and off season sales. We also have gift certificates. Maybe add one to your holiday gift list.
If you don't have money this is even more of a reason to give it a shot
I thought it was a real train car until Bryce got into the tour. It is a tiny house built to look like a caboose and the railroad theme is wonderful. It is an awesome idea.
Thank you! It was a fun one to design and build.
It is a real caboose
Bryce sure is has positive attitude and makes the people feel good about their tiny homes and he brings out all the fine details of their tiny home.
I like watch his tour of tiny homes.
My dad was employed by the Railways in 1900s and used to do a lot of work in the bush. We were little kids and as a family, the train would push our caboose into a siding where we would live for several weeks. This was in Southern Africa and my brother and I were little bush babies. When it was time to go home, a train would come and pick us up and take us back to the station. I have such fond memories of those days!
7:56 I LOVE that white bathroom sink. It looks so NICE.
Had to stop 1/3 in to say how much I LOVE your new production technique of playing the owner's answers, without airing the questions. So professional, and it lets me jump into the "story" as if I were there. Great job.
Hello Belinda how are you doing!!
Tiny Houses always teach us to live and appreciate the little we have,
Infact it reduces greed and encourages living.
This story is so close to home. My father left when I was just 3 years old and looked to my big brother and grandfather to fill in the gaps of a then 70s childhood. Big brother loves trains and would sneekly play on his model train set.
However I would love to live in a disused route number 8 Melborune tram. :)
What a cute tiny. I was recently in Amsterdam and stayed at a converted train hotel one night. There's such a special feeling in unique places like this open to the public. I truly enjoy places like this.
CoolCat Carolena
Did you make a video?
can u share the details of the hotel please. I am visiting amsterdam soon.
CoolCat Carolena cool! Please provide details of this converted train!
hi
I want to meet you
I love the yellow house! (I'm a train fan as well.) The nails/spikes with the numbers are just charming. And the bathroom is to die for. The style of that sink!
If I only had money I'd hire her to design a home for me!
Yesica1993 Yes, love them very much too, also much history that goes along, as have a house called Opals Ghost Train House..very good vibes..whole feel of it all!! Greetings from New Orleans Louisiana peace & Music ☆♡☆OpaL
I was thinking the same thing. I want a sink just like it! My great-grandfather was a big brass with the railroad.
Once we have all our houses built we plan on selling plans. Watch for them in about a year from now. : )
My Father and Uncle were really big into model railroads . This definitely brings back found memories of when I was kid and they loved the trains .
Only thing missing is the little pot-bellied wood stove. Otherwise so much rail road related detail ! You can't help but love it.
Bryce, has the best channel, and good narrator/host too. I love the beauty of this tiny houses, the facilities also.
Cute. I don’t personally like the couch right opposite the kitchen.. would rather put the door to the side and push the couch into the corner, but understand they wanted it to look like a train with the door in the middle onto the platform. Great work as always Bryce.
One of the most appealing and intriguing Tiny House concepts. The Tiny Digs Hotel should be on everyone's itinerary! (PS The host of Living Big in a Tiny House is a terrific interviewer -- he doesn't intrude with lots of questions and he allows the interviewee to explain everything. (Her own warm personality also helped!)
Love her, her story & family...what an incredible place!
The details and way each one must feel is a really different experience each time!
Just love how they've created such a vibe!
If I did a tiny house, I'd do it like this... the lofts in the typical tiny houses are a bit too tiny for me, but everything else about the tiny house movement is so appealing.
She should invite members of her local city planning and zoning boards to spend a night or two there for free, maybe help them envision tiny house living and get that ball rolling!
Good idea!!!
That might be seen as possibly trying to bribe a city official
Good thought
@@TruckTaxiMoveIt Well if lobbying is legal...
That’d be great if most of these officials actually wanted to make life easier for the general public and not grow their pockets
I Love how she though in “ Organic Coffees & Teas ☕️ “!... Woman of my own heart.💕
Thanks
What a great caboose, and a little touch of what is getting to be really old history now. For anyone to remember they need only go visit.
Love how she says "Ray Road." My dad always dropped his Ls too. haha.
I would love this house for myself,
Love trains ,
One my favorite mystery stories is
Murder On The Oriental Express by Agatha Christie !😁
I love this Tiny House to bits. The care that went into the design and the completed project is just amazing. Just breath-taking.
I just wana squeeze/hug Bryce for some reason. He’s so sweet, genuine and inviting.
No detail was spared! So much character in this one :)
Thanks Jackie!
Welcome Bryce to my home area ! I'm just across the river in Vancouver. This is amazing ! I didn't know Tiny Digs had built a new tiny house. I think this one has to be my favorite. Don't forget there is a tiny home community in Welches Oregon in Mt. Hood area. If you haven't been there I think you will love it ! That's where I use to live...lol Speaking of cabooses, there is a real old red one, on the road to my house, that is being made into a tiny house. It's going to be great I bet. I've always wanted to have a caboose as a guest house. Take care while you are here and enjoy yourself. My best to you and thank you for another wonderful episode of your program.....I love it !
When I saw the yellow tiny house thumbnail, it was a quick choice for me to watch.
“O wow, look at all the yellow in here” - Bryce
Lol yes! 💛
Can we all just collectively proclaim that Bryce is adorable and a wonderful human being & presenter?!!?
Wonderful presenting as always for Bryce, and a wonderful business owner/manager and tiny community advocate. Tiny Digs is on my bucket list and this video moved it toward the top of my list.
Oh, thank you! You made my day!
Hope to see you real soon. Remember to get on our mailing list. tinydigshotel.com
Not much of a train enthusiast but always had a fondness for the caboose
, I love the house 🏠.
My 6 year old daughter, Rucha wrote these comments. She love to watch your channel and want us to move to a tinyhouse
WOW Bryce,,,
This tiny home is completely - Off The Rails ,
Id have to say it was very well engineered ! ! !
That village is so adorable.
Looks like I know where I'm going for my next vacation! This was wonderful! Thank you Bryce for sharing another great video!
That's an interesting idea for a hotel. The caboose is so cute and, I love the yellow. That's one of my favorite colors and would like it in my house. I wish I could have seen the rest of the houses but, I guess I'll have to go there and, stay a night.
Hello Cindy your smile is priceless😊
Love this lady she's so cool!
Thanks!
I'm so glad you got to show off Tiny Digs, it's such a great concept and great place to stay! It's a real way for people to try out tiny house living, if you can afford to stay a couple days! 🤑
Much love to Portland and Tiny Digs! 🖤
I'm all about keeping things weird (so I'll be moving out of Salem sooner or later)! 🤣
Great story behind Arthur, a little light (yellow) for me, but it's still great!
Miss you and Rasa, I hope we can catch up again soon!
🖤🦇
Dr. Sir Francis R I do have the mesh, but I'm not sure if I can afford to have it removed, here in the States, it's not just a "I hurt, fix me", it's a fill out a ton of paperwork and pay out the equivalency of a decent used car... I want to have it removed, they had to stitch in about the diameter of a softball up for me using the mesh...
Dr. Sir Francis R I'll look into it my next day off, that I'm not working or tutoring!
I appreciate you my friend!
Tiny Digs! I'll be visiting soon! What a great opportunity to experiment with tiny living and experiencing multiple building space styles. Thank you!
Except... $175 for each night in each of several tiny homes makes for an expensive experiment.
Great, love it. I understand the cost is high due to labor and materials. Puts it into perspective. I remember about 15 years ago a friend of us bought a whole rail carriage in New Zealand and had it placed onto a 2 acre property near Orewa for under $6000 , I thought that was a lot at the time, ha,ha.. There is a great (original) train carriage motel in Ohakune NZ, stayed there, the kids loved it! Good luck to the Digs motel, wonderful idea!
It's just like a gypsy caravan from a fantasy novel or RPG. Something like Fable. I LOVE it!
Such a cool concept. Would be great to experience.
This channel is just amazing 💛
Absolutely wonderful! This lady has taken Tiny Homes to a new level! I loved seeing all the unique features in the caboose, the thoughts and ideas it took to create a space like this is truly marvelous. It will be so great when Govts around the world see the benefits in building smaller, economical and environment friendly homes for the people. Not everyone can afford a huge 3 bedroom house with all the extras, some people like myself would rather a small home, like a tiny house to feel comfortable and to allow the magic to flow.
Thank you Rach!

Now I've seen it all. Imagine living in a caboose. Cute 😊
Arthur is awesome! So is his owner!
🌼🌕🌟🌝⭐️🌞☀️⚡️🌙🌻🌔
Thank you!
Solid train of thought.
i'll leave.
please leave
Your comment seriously CRACKED ME UP!
I saw myself in asituation where I say something, it doesn't sound as smart aloud as it did in my head, the room goes quiet, everyone looks at me, my face grows hot, I turn and go.
You're definitely on the right track
I hope this doesn't become a platform for bad puns
I shall try and keep track of the comments in this thread
I absolutely adore this tiny caboose ♥ My main change would be a raspberry red instead of the black simply because I love that combination of striking yellow and subtle cheery red. I think it would feel more intimate/homey and less industrial with that colour scheme. I do get why they chose black and it looks great. This would just be my own personal change ^_-
I think this is my favourite tiny house so far. Of course there are things that I would do differently, but the caboose theme really appeals to me. Maybe my grandfathers obsession with trains has rubbed off on me.
12:19 Awww One of them is a barn! :)
Check under our name- Tiny Digs on UA-cam and you'll find a couple videos of the Barn also. : )
Fabulous
I am so claustrophobic! The loft bedroom would send me over the edge!
Isn’t it amazing what human imagination & ingenuity can create. Personally I’m bloody hopeless, my wife pays professional decorators, plumbers & carpenters etc.
A great interview, really impressed by all of it.🇬🇧 hi from over here👍😎
If it was close to my place I would love to visit and try every houses. What a brilliant idea to let people know how to live in tiny house and which one best for them. So many inspirations. But I really wish you would make a video about other house. I'm interested to the red one.
Search UA-cam there are more videos on us. Enjoy!
I'd love to visit each one of them; they are so pretty!!
I hope these are still standing with all the trouble in portland. Or rolled out to safer places! My prayers are with you!
Thay lady is do lovely🌻. Love what she's done with the little tiny house community. Wonderful idea. Wishing her the very best in her business💞🌻🌞🎶!!!
The only thing I didnt like about the video was that they didnt show all the tiny houses :(
There are other videos that show the others.
The rest are on the Tiny House, Big Journey channel. .
@@cobizinc , thanks for the information!
Yessss wanted to see all😭😭
Go to the hotel website, they have virtual tours for all the lovely tiny houses ;-)
What a cute tiny house! I love the concept of a community along with the hotel aspect. I hope more of these crop up throughout the U.S. so I can try one for myself. Thanks for the video Bryce! Got anything coming up in the Midwest? :-)
I love the bathroom sink! and so much else about this caboose house...
this is soooo beautiful!!!! would love to stay here one day
If you're a fan of the Big Bang Theory, you know Dr. Sheldon Cooper will love this tiny house.
absolutely!!!
love love love it!! the colour isn't overwhelming at all, but warm and welcoming. Love all the little lamps and maps and hooks and what-not. Love that bathroom sink and the kitchen sink...it looks so comfy and inviting. Thank you for this great video!
Thanks!
This is definitely one of my favourites so far! I could see myself living in something very similar to this!
Nice Theme with Lotts of History + all the Personal touches using Custom Decoration!!
I think a tiny house neighborhood would be good for Detroit. Great for the low-income community, cheap to keep it up, and builds a better sense of community.
already is, but no reason there can't be more! detroit.curbed.com/2017/5/24/15686640/tiny-home-detroit-photos
Done Dennison well crap. Starting to rethink my moving to Chicago.
Nathan Hovey Houses are $1 in Detroit
I've not seen anything like that. I live pretty close to Detroit. I imagine if that's the case that there are some huge property taxes that would need to be paid.
Nathan Hovey actually I think I've heard of the $1 buildings and I don't think it's so much property tax as these are abandoned in seriously run-down buildings that would need serious TLC but don't quote me on that I could be wrong
Aw we don't get to see them all 😕 sad I was hoping to see them all
***La caboose est magnifique .. Yellow feels summer crips clean .. Love that home ***
What a Great way to honor not just ur Grandfather,but to honor so much in such tha Tiniest BIGGEST WAYS!!!
Thank u......for being u.
U have a new sub here, not because of tha tiny homes but because of ur thoughts in honor and ur grandfather. My Grandfather was my real Father in my Eyes and a Great man.
Some 30 years ago, US railroads began phasing out cabooses in favor of "EOT" (End Of Train) electronic monitoring devices. The railroads wanted to get rid of them and you could buy a real caboose for just a few thousand dollars. Many people did, and converted them into cabins, cottages, motels, and "Tiny Houses" (long before the term was invented). Unfortunately, moving a large, 30 ton rail vehicle like a caboose requires the use of a huge crane and low-boy semi trailer. So relocating a caboose can cost several times more than what you paid to buy it. Surviving cabooses have since become rare, as reflected in their much higher current asking prices. If you want one, a reproduction caboose is the way to go!
Video starts at 3:00
My hubby and I would love to stay in the caboose. We remember them on trains. You did an amazing build
Hello Dawn how are you doing!!
I love her 💖💖 I love the idea of the village and the experience. The yellow caboos is adorable and a great design
There will be videos showing the other tiny houses, right?!?
Another great video. How do you find these treasures? I know some would be easy but others, not so. So thank you for taking us along on your journey, Bryce.
Not so long ago I saw a wagon like that and this is pretty much what I dreamed of doing with it.... If I ever have some money to spare I will absolutely build a tiny house like that!!!!
What a fantastic caboose, but also the idea of a hotel! Fantastic
Early commenter squad woohoo!! I love the caboose, it's so cute, and I've always loved trains since I was little and the caboose was my favorite so this is very nostalgic for me. Very nice hotel.
Hello Areya how are you doing!!
very nice! nevertheless too expensive for me as I would have to book a flight from germany first.....
I love that caboose house! Lots of neat ideas in that build!
My father has always loved trains, and instilled a love of them in me as well - the caboose was always my favourite part. Definitely an incentive to cross a border and a continent to spend a night or a few in that cozy house... although Dad might find it a bit too bright to sleep in ;)
Hello Anne how are you doing!!
Rayroad
John Hill every time she said it I took a shot. Just kidding. :)
Beth Ann 😁 you must be wasted by now!
Yeah, Im 3 sheets to the wind by now! LOL
I heard rareroad
Tg I'm not the only one.
R A Y R O A D
Ray Road!!! haha
balls Totally bothered me when she kept mispronouncing that!
WAAAAAAT??
I feel that the people behind this channel are living in mobile tiny houses themselves, and just move their entire house(s) to new locations, when visiting other tiny houses.
An amazing home inside a train caboose! Perfect 😍
Awesome idea and a great tour but anybody else feel like $165 a night is a pretty hefty price?
Tiffany Lyn it's pretty ridiculous, not to mention the cost to buy one from them? $65000 is insane
Tiffany Lyn ,Yes, way too much for me. But I'd love to have the experience as I would LOVE to build my own tiny home. My fiance is a general contractor and certified in plumbing and electric, and my dad taught me all kinds of building when I was growing up, so I'd love to build it ourselves! I have the house and layout all picked out! The only thing holding me back is money! As always!
Kim Bradford well if your both working get a mortgage?
Tiffany Lyn way too expensive. She should charge 59 a night or something. Then it would be full all the time. During the summer make it 89 or something and during the lomg weekends. 169 is just greedy.
Tiffany Lyn when you can rent a regular 40 foot park model at a park that has all sorts of things to do i know this o e it has golf, swimming, water park, ect. For 600 a whole week and you get a golf cart included to travel around in. Now thats decent! 840 a week is crazy for this.....maybe because its a special raeroad design :)
I like tiny houses, but I feel this is like a trailer park with a fancy name.
Scott Fossil the reason they are often built in trailers is to get around the laws, is tiny house hotel probably is 'legally' a trailer park, but the idea is one day they can legally be built on the ground with no trailer chassis underneath
Scott Fossil it could be
This is my favorite. Love the caboose!!!❤️❤️
I’m researching places to staycation for Mother’s Day 2021 and appreciate the view inside this one. Tiny Digs has even more houses now, Bryce, so you should come back to Portland!
Cabooses? Surely cabeese, if gooses are geese. Also if mouses are mice, aren't houses hice?
Alec Denholm
Ha! Makes logical sense to me!
Actually, the plural for caboose is cabooses. Look it up. Nobody ever said the English language is logical!
I'm sure they were just joking.
_Cabooses?_
No, Cabooxen!
You could write Dr. Seuss books :)
Take a drink every time she says "Ray road" 😕
Yellow is so positive & joyful color in this project, I'm in love with it :)
I imagine this can be built anywhere you would like.....Love this
70k for such a tiny thing and 160 for just one night,
hell with those prices you could go to a very good hotel or buy a cheap house
eberbacher007
You'd be paying for the experience and the location. Living in a box truck would be much cheaper.
on blacktop with no grass/landscaping. ugh.
sophie morrison yes I think I’d at least put a little garden in the centre with chairs around it. That would make all the difference.
did they run out of funds for the added touches? i would drive right past it.
I believe it was a city requirement. For whatever reason they had to keep it all black top. It was a parking lot and they had to keep it zoned as such. Something like that.
that's unfortunate. the model was fairly decent.
Yes, I agree. There's no privacy at all either. Even if they have to have the hard standing, some careful planting in containers could provide a little privacy. I love the idea of trying out different styles or being able to view them. At the moment, TBH it looks a bit like a nicely done sales forecourt. The tiny houses are beautifully done and the basic idea is fantastic.
Love the caboose and ALL the little houses there. So creative!!
This is one of my favourites of all the Tiny House videos I have seen... (and I have seen a lot of them)... It is just a very beautiful design and so many fun items in it... Perfect for a Hotel visit... not practical to live in though...
