Building the House

 Instead of doing a build on site, we selected a manufactured modular home. The company, Karolena Homes, was based in Okanagan Falls. Between signing on and delivery on site Karolena was bought out by Horizon North, a prefab work camp and commercial residential modular home company. Horizon North was subsequently bought out by Dexterra. We very much enjoyed the Horizon North project management crew who worked with us up to and after site installation.

We visited the manufacturing plant in Okanagan several times. Following are images from the factory floor, the second showing our two unites side by side.

Preparing the on Bowen involved creating our own driveway and clearing the site to build the foundation.
