We are a THOW (tiny house on wheels) community in coastal North Carolina. We are creating a community where you park your THOW in order to live with integrity as neighbor and friend while practicing social and ecological responsibility. We purchased 14 acres of land in 2021 and worked with the county, an engineering office, and a landscape architect specializing in sustainability to develop it. We are open and actively taking reservations. Everyone is invited to explore if this is a place for them to live (with weekly, monthly, and yearly options). We are especially reaching out to neurodiverse or neurodivergent individuals and couples who are looking for a place to belong. We have 19 sites for THOWs – reach out if you have a different kind of home on wheels – with a large community garden, a greenhouse, chickens and other critters, all of which is taken care of by all of us. Ideas for the future include a co-working space for digital nomads, a mushroom barn (the kind you buy at the grocery store), and a workshop. If you bring special skills and interest, the hope is to make room for them. Everyone contributes as they are able. The property is about 15 minutes from the beach and about 10 minutes from shopping and medical facilities. The homes are parked surrounded by trees with some privacy. Follow us on Facebook or sign up on the website for newsletters. Email us to request a reservation agreement, rental information, and other paperwork
Noble Commons is a small community where you bring your THOW (tiny house on wheels) to share a simple life close to nature while having access to modern amenities as needed and desired. We are especially inviting neurodiverse or neurodivergent individuals and couples.
Contact us and explore if we are a good fit. We are currently taking reservations for long-term THOW sites, but are open to weekly and monthly visitors. As we are getting more established, our ability to welcome short-term visitors may change. The earlier you become a part of the process, the more likely we are able to integrate your ideas and suggestions.
There is a home on the property with a guest room that we can make available for people considering joining us. If you have a camper, van, or RV and would like to visit, please reach out.
A few people (not elected by the broader community) make the major decisions.
Generally seek agreement, but have backup methods when consensus isn’t reached.
Power and responsibility are shared relatively equally among members.
We have a tenant association that long-term residents will join.
Members maintain separate personal finances with minimal sharing.
Labor: Yes (1 hrs/week)
The goal is that everyone contributes in some way. We are very aware that those ways will differ. We currently do not offer THOWs for rent.
