Van Conversions With Showers: Luxury Meets Adventure on the Road

At The Vansmith, we believe adventure shouldn't come at the cost of comfort. That’s why we build van conversion showers that give you the freedom to rinse off a muddy trail or kickstart your day with a warm, private shower - no matter where you are.

 

Based in Boulder, Colorado, we’ve been crafting custom van conversions since 2016. As outdoor adventurers ourselves - skiers, bikers, hikers, and climbers - we know that a hot shower isn’t just a luxury; it’s essential. Whether you're exploring mountain backroads or living on the road full-time, a well-designed van life shower can make all the difference.

Van Conversions with Showers Crafted by The Vansmith

Our shower systems aren’t just upgrades—they’re hard-working essentials that keep you clean, comfortable, and truly self-sufficient on the road. You’ve got three practical options:

 

  • 1. Fully-Enclosed Interior Shower

A sealed stall that delivers real at-home privacy and hot-water comfort. It does eat floor space, so choose this only if a daily private shower is non-negotiable for you.

  • 2. Convertible Bench Shower

By day it’s a padded bench; when you need it, the seat lifts and panels snap into place to form a watertight cubicle. Shower, fold it away, and reclaim the living area—ideal when every square inch counts.

  • 3. Rear-Door Exterior Shower (Propane-Heated)

Mounts at the back doors with a curtain for semi-privacy. It frees up cabin space and works great in fair weather, but expect to stow it for winter travel.

 

Not everyone needs an onboard shower—some clients prefer campground facilities or gym passes and spend the saved space and water capacity on gear or batteries instead. Whatever your priorities, we’ll build the layout that makes the most of every inch.

 

Why Choose a Camper Van Conversion Shower?

  • Clean up after hiking, biking, skiing, or climbing
  • Travel self-sufficiently without relying on campgrounds
  • Enjoy privacy, comfort, and convenience on the road
  • Extend off-grid adventures with confidence

Built for the Road - and Built to Last

A proper van conversion shower isn’t just about plumbing. It requires deep experience with space-saving design, system integration, and durable materials that can handle thousands of miles.


Every build we do starts with a deep understanding of your needs, and ends with a van that feels like home - because it is.
