Thinking about rolling into tiny living in Colorado? You can, but with a few rules to keep in mind. Tiny Homes on Wheels (THOWs) are typically treated like RVs, which means you’ll find them welcome in RV parks, campgrounds, and mobile home communities rather than on private land full-time. Some areas, like Walsenburg and parts of El Paso County, are more open to THOWs, but for year-round living on your own property, a foundation-built tiny home that follows the IRC Appendix Q is usually the smoother path.

Step into the Rockwood model and see how cozy design meets rugged functionality, perfect for everything from snowy Rocky Mountain mornings to sunny afternoons on the Front Range.

Park model homes are built to thrive in Colorado’s high country, with durable construction and insulation that handle snowy evenings, crisp alpine mornings, and everything in between.
Outdoor Living
Living tiny in Colorado means waking up right where the action is. Skiing fresh powder, biking rugged trails, hiking scenic peaks, or casting a line in alpine streams. Embrace the outdoor lifestyle.
Eco-Friendly Living
In a state known for sustainability, park models make sense. Their smaller footprint reduces energy use, conserves resources, and pairs perfectly with solar or off-grid upgrades.
Community & Lifestyle
From lively ski towns to quiet valleys, Colorado offers countless places for park models. Each has its own unique charm, rich culture, and the laid-back, refreshing vibe of mountain living.

Yes, tiny houses are legal in Colorado, but the details shift depending on where and how you set them up. Foundation-built tiny homes that meet IRC Appendix Q can be permitted across the state, whether you’re in the high country near Breckenridge, the forests around Durango, or the wide-open plains of the Eastern Slope. Tiny Homes on Wheels (THOWs) are typically classified as RVs, so they’re most often placed in RV parks or mobile-home zones, especially in mountain resort areas or along the Front Range. Thanks to HB 22-1242, some inspected and utility-ready THOWs may even qualify as permanent residences, making it easier to live tiny in Colorado’s diverse landscapes.
Wendy’s Village in Colorado Springs uses tiny homes to create affordable housing for local educators.
No, park model tiny homes are not classified as mobile homes in Colorado. Built to RV standards (ANSI A119.5) and limited to 399 sq. ft., they’re legally treated as recreational vehicles rather than HUD-code manufactured housing.
This means they’re typically allowed in RV parks, campgrounds, or similar zones, though in some cases, placing a park model on a permanent foundation may allow it to be used more like a traditional home under local building codes.

Ideal Locations for Your Park Model Tiny Homes in Colorado
From the peaks of the Rockies to the wide-open plains, Colorado offers endless settings for park model tiny homes. Whether you’re drawn to mountain adventure, small-town charm, or vibrant city life, there’s a spot here to match your vision.
Front Range (Denver, Boulder, Colorado Springs): If you want the convenience of city amenities with quick access to outdoor recreation, the Front Range is a great fit. RV resorts and communities in this region are popular for long-term stays, and strong rental demand makes it an appealing investment.
Mountain Towns (Breckenridge, Estes Park, Durango): For those who dream of alpine living, Colorado’s mountain towns offer stunning views, ski slopes, and a steady flow of visitors. Park models here work well for both full-time living and vacation rentals.
Western Slope (Grand Junction, Glenwood Springs, Montrose): Known for its vineyards, rivers, and warmer climate, the Western Slope is a relaxed alternative to the high country. RV-friendly communities in this region make it easy to settle into a slower pace of life.
San Luis Valley & Southern Colorado: If wide-open landscapes and affordability are top priorities, the San Luis Valley delivers. With its flat terrain, big skies, and proximity to the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, it’s an ideal place for a quiet park model setup.
