ModelTown's take

Each model has a clear base price, but freight, taxes and options are extra

Tiny Mountain Houses, based in Salem, Oregon, has hand-crafted 500+ tiny homes over 20+ years with a commitment to close customer collaboration. Their design range spans rustic to modern aesthetics, enabling buyers to choose looks matching their vision rather than accepting standard templates. Each home is built with attention to customization and detail. Tiny Mountain appeals to buyers in the Pacific Northwest and beyond who value artisan quality, design flexibility, and a builder who listens to individual preferences. They're particularly strong for buyers seeking deeply customized homes and those prioritizing the relationship-building aspect of the building process.

Worth exploring if

  • You want a tiny home on wheels built to RV codes. Tiny Mountain Houses says its homes are RV certified, which it says helps with lenders.
  • You want to pick your options. The company offers custom-built or off-the-shelf designs, and its model pages list options like ductless heating and cooling and quartz counters.
  • You can visit Oregon. The company has a showroom in Salem, with tours by appointment only.

Clarify before committing

  • The freight cost. Prices leave out freight and taxes, and the site doesn't publish delivery rates. Get a freight quote to your address before you compare prices.
  • Which RV code your model is built to. The FAQ says wider or taller homes are park models under a different code and may need pilot cars. That affects transport and where the home can sit.
  • The build time and deposit. The site doesn't say how long a build takes or what deposit is due.

Beyond the listing

Built to RV codes, not house codes

Tiny Mountain Houses says all its homes are built to the ANSI/NFPA 1192 travel trailer code or the 1195 park model code. Its FAQ says homes up to 8 feet 6 inches wide fit the travel trailer rules. Wider or taller homes are park models and may need pilot cars or special transport. The company says it handles permits and routing for those moves. Ask which code your model uses.

What the warranty covers

Tiny Mountain Houses says it covers craftsmanship for one year from purchase and will repair or replace defects. Appliances and fixtures carry their own makers' warranties. The FAQ says the metal roof and standard siding carry 40-year manufacturer warranties. It also says extended warranties of up to 7 years are available. Ask what an extended warranty costs and who backs it.

Financing as an RV

The company suggests an RV loan, often from a local credit union, and says its national RV certification helps with lenders. Lenders want a purchase agreement that shows the total cost. Tiny Mountain Houses says it can issue a purchase order once your final price is set. The site doesn't mention in-house financing, so line up your lender early.
