7 Tips to Host Guests Overnight in Your Park Model Homes
Living in a compact place is figuring out how to be comfortable with Park Model Homes. If you are new to compact living, this may seem to be a problem, but you will quickly learn that it is much simpler than you think.
Another factor that may surprise you is how well a compact house can accommodate visitors. In this piece, we’ll provide you some pointers for having overnight guests from family or friends.
1. Select a plan that provides visitors with their own room or loft.
If you do not yet possess a Park model homes, you may begin by preparing ahead of time while selecting your layout. If you know you’ll be having visitors over often, it’s a good idea to choose a floor plan that is well-suited to that purpose.
We propose that you choose a floor plan that includes a downstairs bedroom as well as an upper flex area in the loft. This way, instead of having your visitors sleep in the living room, you can offer them either the bedroom or the loft.
When selecting floor plan modification choices, keep privacy in mind in both scenarios. Consider how you want to separate the loft from the rest of your living area in particular.
Instead of an open railing, we recommend opting with a closed wall barrier like this one in our Liberty model.
Take note of how much more private the loft is. When friends come around, curtains or screens over the windows may provide even more seclusion. You may then draw them apart again if you want a clear view of the loft and shared spaces.
2. Think about adaptable furniture.
In certain cases, having a separate room for visitors may not be possible (say, perhaps, if you have children and need both the downstairs bedroom and the loft to yourselves).
In such cases, you should make use of adaptable furniture. In your park model house, a huge sofa bed in the living room may provide a nice place for your visitors to sleep.

3. Make sure you have enough storage space for your visitors’ items.
When your visitors come to visit you, they will bring more than just themselves; they will also bring baggage.
Make sure you have a handy place for them to put stuff, particularly if they are visiting for an extended period of time. Clear up some cabinets or cubbies ahead of time for them so they can get their items out of the way.
4. Always declutter before entertaining visitors.
Clutter is easy to accumulate in a small place. It may go unnoticed by you, but your visitors may notice. Clear out counters and other surfaces, and double-check that everything is in its proper position before inviting your friends over.

5. Purchase a simple privacy screen.
If you intend to have frequent visitors, an inside privacy screen might be a very handy buy for a park model house. As previously said, if your visitors will be staying upstairs, it may be useful to divide off your loft area. However, it is much more important if they will be sleeping in the living room.
However, even if there is a privacy screen, people sleeping in the living room may not feel comfortable changing there. As a result, it is essential that you have decluttered the bathroom so that they have enough space to change.
6. Make cooking simple.
Even if you have a large kitchen like this one in our Champion Athens – APH 518, there are times when there are too many chefs in the kitchen.
To avoid a dish pile-up, ingredients scattered about, and elbows colliding as you and your guests attempt to cook dinner at the same time, devise easy solutions.
That might imply preparing ahead of time so that reheating food is quick and straightforward. It might also mean stocking up on snacks or items that don’t need much preparation.
Another alternative is to dine out often and save your leftovers.
7. Make use of your outside areas.
Another suggestion for making cooking simpler when you have visitors around is to do it outside. Consider installing a barbeque in your backyard. Get some patio chairs and enjoy entertaining outside in the fresh air. For such situations, several of our park model house styles offer wide porches.
