The Key West

The Key West is a 640-square-foot park model — still 1 bedroom and 1 bath, still ANSI A119.5 certified, still road-legal as a recreational vehicle. But the extra 240 square feet over our 399-sqft platform changes everything about how it lives.

The defining feature is the central cathedral ceiling — a true peaked vault running the long axis of the home with a black-bladed ceiling fan at the apex. Combined with banks of paired transom windows on both side walls (rare on park models — most builders shortcut these), the great room reads as a real loft rather than a stretched RV interior.

The kitchen anchors one end with a peninsula breakfast bar topped in white quartz. Honey-maple shaker cabinets — warmer than the white-shaker palette in our other park models — pair with stone-look subway tile backsplash and black appliances (French-door fridge, over-range microwave, electric range). A single large-basin stainless sink sits under a small window in the back kitchen wall.

Built-in entertainment console runs along the opposite wall: floating shelves above, lower cabinets in the same honey-maple, and a black stone-look countertop spanning the length. It’s the kind of feature most park models leave to aftermarket — included here as standard millwork.

Floors are distressed wood-grain LVP in a gray-brown finish. Walls are warm greige. Mini-split HVAC, recessed lighting throughout, modern fan-light combination at the cathedral peak.

Exterior is the most contemporary look in our park-model lineup: charcoal-and-black vertical metal-look panels with cedar-grain accent inset around the porch and rear gable. Sharp gabled roof in matte black. Front-facing covered porch with horizontal stainless cable railings — a premium detail you don’t see on entry park models. Black-metal exterior stair to the porch.

ANSI A119.5 certified. Starting at $54,899 with a 5% deposit. Financing from 5.57% APR over 15 years, no minimum credit score. Factory build window 10–14 weeks. Free delivery and set within 1,000 miles of Smithville, TX.

If the Hayden and Cedar Ridge are starter park models, the Key West is the premium version — 60% more square footage and a meaningful upgrade in window glass, cabinet quality, and exterior cladding.
