Park Models, What Are They?
Created: 7/29/2008
We Now Sell Park Models!
What is a Park Model?
The Park Models we sell are basically manufactured homes that have a living space of less than 400 square feet. Park models are classified as a travel trailer (RV) which is regulated by the Dept of Transportation and the state departments of motor vehicles (DMV). The technical difference between a park model and a travel trailer is the lack of any holding tanks on the park model. They are intended to be placed solely at a site with hook-ups for sewer and water.

Is a Park Model right for you?
Park models are increasing in popularity for seasonal resort RV communities and vacation properties. Although they can be a quick and affordable housing solution for many property owners, and skip a number of permits and fees, you should always check with your county or city as to the codes and standards for the use of an RV.

Park Models are cottages with peaked roofs that sit on a chassis and are typically placed on rented, leased or purchased sites in campgrounds or RV resorts and used as weekend retreats or vacation cottages. Park models can also be placed in RV sections of mobile home parks or on private property and used as a part-time residence, subject to local zoning ordinances.
Typically upscale in appearance, park models are available in many styles with residential cabinets and full size appliances. Park models offer many options including bay windows and lofts.

Why are Park Models gaining in popularity?
Rising fuel costs may be partly responsible for increased park model demand, but other factors are also the relative affordability of park models compared to RV's, as well as the increasing good looks of park model units.
