20 Beautiful Boho-Style RV Renovations You Have to See to Believe
One thing Ive noticed in the past when Ive shared pictures of beautifully remodeled RVs is that sometimes people assume actually using a renovated RV would be impractical. For that reason, I want anyone who is thinking about attempting something like this to know that.
The RVs in this article include:
- Brand new RVs
- Vintage trailers
- Giant fifth wheel RVs
- Tiny campers
- Motorhomes
And, the people who own the RVs pictured in this article include:
- People who regularly travel with or in their camper
- People who live in their camper as their primary home
- Families with small children
- People with pets
- People who remodeled their camper on a budget
- People who had no remodeling experience prior to renovating their RV
What Im telling you is, if you want your RV to look Instagram-worthy like the ones pictured in this article,you can! All it takes is a dream and willingness to put in the effort!
And now lets get to the pretty pictures
Restored Vintage Shasta Camper
Many people dream about buying a little camper to live in and travel around doing yoga in beautiful state parks, but Summer and Ryan decided buy a 1969 Shasta camper, leave behind their life in St. Louis, Missouri, and make that dream a reality.

Renovated Keystone Cougar Fifth Wheel
The owners of this RV, full-time RVers Kevin and Mandy, have actually sold it and renovated a beautiful toy hauler which I had the opportunity to tour earlier this year (and which you can, and should, see on their Instagram page!), but I still love the colorful Boho details of their first camper (that cactus wall!!) and had to include it in this list!

1996 Damon Motorhome Makeover
This is of my personal favorite motorhome renovations because of the unique touches like the hand painted compass and the glass tubes of spices in wooden holders on the wall. Looking at the before photos of this 1996 Damon Ultrasport makes the vision this couple had for its potential even more amazing when you see the after photos on Instagram.

2007 Sunset Creek Travel Trailer
One of the first steps for many RVers when renovating is to remove the built-in dining booth, which opens up much more potential for the space. Fresh paint, new furniture, and touches like a colorful rug made this an inviting space for Amy and her two kids to call home during a season of their lives. See photos of this RVs renovation process on Instagram at @lovethetinylife.

1982 Windsor Statesman (Australian)
The space in this Australian caravan is utilized so well, youd never believe this camper (affectionally named Ollie) is just 18 feet long!
