I am sure there are forums on here already discussing this but I've tried wording it every which way and couldn't find them!

I am trading my bumper pull in this weekend for a 3 horse weekender (gooseneck). They are hooking up the A/C unit for us before we pick it up. The weekender is already carpeted and insulated (just have to put up some paneling). Other than that, its bare bones!

I would like to add to the trailer myself, but wanted to reach out to see what others have done that they found handy before doing so.

This trailer does have a rear tack so I am planning on keeping my tack back there. I am not planning on doing shower/toilet, just a cowboy shower in the horse area most likely.

If you have any ideas or have tackled your own yourself, I would love to hear what did and didn't work for you, pictures always a plus!

TIA!!

We finished ours out. I will have to take pics for you if you want. I have a closet, boot box for storage, fridge and microwave with a tiny counter space and cabinets. I live in it about 2 weeks year. Great for one person, tight for 2 but it is doable. We have taken it camping. We took it to the beach this year. I have a cowboy shower with a hot water heater in tack compartment.

That would be great! That's pretty much what I'm wanting, definitely want to get the most storage space possible.

This page is GREAT for ideas. Plus most of the people are very knowledgeable. I'll be redoing mine this winter!

My dad did the inside of mine. The only thing that he had done was the AC install.

What we would have done differently was to put insulation on the neck of the trailer rather than just carpet.
