The Li'l Stardust is named after the famed Stardust |
|
By mid-morning in the spring and summer, the sun begins to peek through her neighbor's trees, illuminating her from the east.
|
|
Next to this beautiful little retro camper sits the party barn, |

A shot taken by the light of the morning sun (bright, but not the brightest part of the day). |
|
Heavy woods from the east provide shade |
|
Lovely custom upholstery, curtains, and pillows are showcased in this darling little hideaway.
|
|
Breakfast anyone? On the table rests a vintage, 1950s toaster.
|
|
Stardust is outfitted with era-appropriate vintage Igloo products. They are a perfect color match!
|
|
If one is musically inclined, miniature (but real!) instruments stand at the ready.
|
|
Interesting vintage items appear as well, such as this genuine mid-60s Nauga!
|
|
The galley kitchen features a modern microwave oven and a three-burner gas stove.
|
|
She is all set up for "military" showers! And yes, that is a functioning toilet.
|
|
The dinette table lowers, the seat cushions fit neatly on top, and a double bed appears! Fresh, clean linens, pillows, blankets, and a comforter are stored away too, to make that bed super comfy.
|
|
A little tiki bar is super-convenient for fun photo-ops! It is attached to the party barn, and visible from the front window of the camper.
|
|
An icebox and fridge complete the galley.
|
|
A vintage-style coffee maker (which happens to make very good coffee!)...
|
|
A little light reading in the magazine rack (Time, July 16, 1961), adorned by the S found in the Shasta logo...
|
|
Reminders of the long-gone Stardust Casino and Hotel add interest to the camper's decor.
|
|
Custom cherry pillows complete the vintage feel found in The Li'l Stardust.
|
|
It is most appropriate to decorate a retro camper with vintage findings.
|
|
The view from the dinette, looking out at the party barn and tiki bar.
|
|
The woods provide some natural privacy and act as a sound baffle.
|
|
Tiki lights, a fire pit, loungers, an oak tree, and a tall Georgia pine all are found behind the trailer, and next to the fabulous tiki bar.
|
|
Who wouldn't have a great time sipping MaiTais next to this?? And those tikis light up at night too!
|
|
Just add marshmallows!
|
|
A new view of the tiki bar, now with a stone base.
|
|
Life is good with your favorite tiki gods.
|
|
These super comfy hammock swings take advantage of the natural, subtle sway of the oak branch that supports them.
|
|
Come on in and have a seat!
|
|
A view of the back of the lovely Stardust, and towards the owner's home.
|
|
What a view!
|
|
If one doesn't care to make up the bed to dine, one might like to enjoy their morning orange juice at the wrought iron table instead.
|
|
We thought of everything. Open up your Coca-Cola (or your beer) right here!
|
|
Good morning, sunshine! Night or day, everything is fabulously color coordinated.
|
|
If you have had too much sun, or Margaritas, we wouldn't want you to trip over the tie-lines that support the awning. These pennants will help!
|
|
|
|
She's so homey!
|
|
Tiki chimes clink in the slight Georgia breeze. The tiki theme is borrowed from the tiki bar, and very era-appropriate. |
|
A Shasta Airflyte wouldn't be complete without her fabulous wings!
|
|
The homeowner's back yard is 1/4 of an acre, room to spread out.
|
|
A charming on-location spot for film and photography.
|
|
The neighbors are quiet. The occasional (spayed or neutered) feral cat slinks by on the wood fence sometimes, though.
|

|
Here is an out-of-frame area for equipment, or other needs.
|
|
Looking to the right of the property.
|
|
Low noise levels are noted in the area, but this is mostly attributed to the natural surroundings.

|
|
Even her running lights can be illuminated for unique evening shots. String lights sparkle underneath.
|
|
The area behind the camper can be lit by means of string lights, the fire pit, and with the lights over the bar.
|
|
Isn't she stunning, sitting there on her white marble gravel bed?? She is especially pretty when the summer fireflies flit around the property.
|

Come to see us near Atlanta, Georgia!
