Clark Griswold’s house, scaled down and covered in lights, is still a real Department 56 Christmas village piece. And if one tiny house cannot possibly contain the chaos of National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, Cousin Eddie’s RV is part of the collection too.
Start With The Griswold House
The Griswold Holiday House is the centerpiece. Department 56 says its lights can switch between steady and flashing, which is a very Clark Griswold thing for a miniature building to do. It is an older design, introduced in 2013, rather than a brand-new 2026 release.
The house is listed separately from the other figures and buildings. On Department 56’s official page when checked September 25, 2026, the house was listed at $267.50 and available to add to cart; price and stock can change.
Yes, Cousin Eddie’s RV Is A Separate Piece
Department 56’s Cousin Eddie’s RV appears in its official Christmas Vacation village collection, alongside the Griswold house and garage. The collection also has scene-specific accessories, so you can build a display a piece at a time. The RV was listed at $139 on the official collection page when checked September 25, 2026.
The house and RV are sold separately. Check the maker’s current listing before ordering; the original article’s Amazon screenshots and Prime-shipping claims were from 2019, and those details are no longer a reliable guide.
The appeal is how ridiculous the display gets as it grows: one wildly lit house is funny; adding Eddie’s RV makes it a whole scene. Just leave space for the garage if you know you’ll be tempted.
