After 21 years of seasonal camping in various travel trailers, Scott and Nancy Kargas were ready for a change. They had grown tired of dealing with poorly constructed travel trailers that required excessive maintenance or expensive repairs. When they discovered Excelsior Homes’ park models, they knew they had found the solution they were looking for.
A Long-Lasting Investment
Scott and Nancy were drawn to park models for their durability and home-like features. Unlike traditional campers, their new park model features solid construction, with a shingled roof, standard siding, and windows built to last. “We wanted something that felt more like a home and less like just a place to sleep,” says Scott. “Our park model is exactly that—it’s so comfortable that it’s almost hard to leave when the weekend is done.”
Must-Have Features in their Highland Park Model Home
The Kargas had a clear vision of what they needed in their park model. They were tired of worrying about leaks, rodent entry, thin walls, low ceilings, single-pane windows that were hard to open, and dated panelboard walls. With the new Highland Park models, available at Excelsior Homes, all their concerns were addressed with its solid, modern construction. The high ceilings, standard-sized appliances, and the option to paint the sheetrock walls made it feel like a true home away from home.
A Stress-Free Buying Experience & Seasoned Advice
When it came to purchasing their park model, Scott and Nancy chose Excelsior Homes because of the excellent customer service. “They listened to what we were looking for with no pressure,” Nancy shares. Their new park model home was delivered to their chosen site, and is ready to welcome friends and family!
For those considering a park model, the Kargas have some sage advice: “Investigate the different layouts available and walk through the models, even if it means visiting another dealer.” Reflecting on their 20 years of seasonal camping, they emphasize the importance of investing in quality from the start and offer this advice to others considering upgrading to a newer park model. “For the money we spent upgrading our other campers over the years, we could have saved by buying a quality park model years ago.”
