After Hurricane Katrina, more than 20,000 campers and trailers were sent to the Gulf Coast. FEMA has been providing emergency housing, but it was meant to be temporary. This time the areas affected and the amount of damage meant it was going to take longer …
The measurements are specific now, so we can be more confident about furniture plans. This lets you know exactly how much space there is and specifically where the windows and doors are. The electric plan lets you know where the outlets and switches are. The …
We got the first copy of the blueprints to go over! So exciting! This is the elevations, the plans for what the outside of the cabin will look like. The first thing that jumps out at me is that the windows don’t line up. This …
I qualify for a FHA First Time Home Buyers loan. I found a trailer I can afford. What repairs need be made so that it will pass the appraisal? It is a single-wide trailer with an addition permanently set up on land that comes with …
Westwood Cabins makes four models. Each model can be arranged in a lot of different ways. When we toured, most of the cabins we saw left the ceiling high and vaulted. But you can have a lower ceiling in some areas to add a loft. …

Westwood cabins finishes the interior walls and ceiling with Johnson Pine pre-finished lumber. Johnson Pine makes “easy interlocking tongue and groove boards” with a hard finish already applied to all sides. The boards fit together top and bottom and at the ends, so there are …
We really like two plans from Westwood Cabins in South Carolina. Both have one bedroom, one bathroom and a really good kitchen.
We looked over a lot of photos on the Westwood Cabins website gallery and their Facebook page to get an idea how these will really look.
This floor plan has the biggest closet, a walk-in closet with room for a stacked washer and dryer. The bathroom has two sinks. That matters to some people. I’d rather have the counterspace. There is a small linen closet.
I like the high open ceiling. They used some open shelving. I prefer closed cabinets to hide the clutter.
This could be the bedroom.
This shows the whole wall and the hallway. The could be wide enough to use as another room.
Here is the washer and dryer stacked in the master closet.
There is a pocket door from the bedroom to the closet. This leaves wall space for a TV.
This plan has a bigger kitchen and a laundry room. The closet isn’t as big, but it’s not as tiny as a lot of the closets I’m seeing in pre-fab cabins.
I really do love this kitchen.
The island adds a lot of counter space and we won’t need a table.
This isn’t actually the laundry room on the plan, but it would be similar.
The bedroom is small. The space goes to the laundry room. The closet gets bi-fold doors.
So, I think it is between these two plans. Or a variation of the two.
Whatever we do, we are going to add a nice big porch.
