Wheelhaus Wedge Is A Different Kind of Park Model Home

There's so much more to prefab than just the building; there is also the site and the community. Wheelhaus is an attempt to bring good design to the trailer park.

They are designed to go into a new breed of trailer parks that are well designed, greener, and attract a different audience. The green RV park is a great model for significantly increasing density, sharing resources and common facilities and costs, while owning only the 400 square feet of RPT. It makes tremendous sense.

Unless the prefab world solves the problem of site and community it will never go anywhere.
