Lazy Days is located on the north side of the McKenzie Hwy at 52511 McKenzie River Hwy. The park was completely destroyed in the Holiday Farm fire in the fall of 2020 and Homes for Good is completely rebuilding the park to provide 20 spaces for modular and an additional 10 spaces for park model RVs as well a community building, playground, and other amenities. Modular homes include DHP heating/air conditioning unit and offer energy efficient appliances. Modular homes also feature in-unit laundry, and the property has laundry facilities in the community room for Park Model RVs. Each resident’s driveway includes off-street parking spaces for up to 3 vehicles.
Homes for Good is working closely with OHCS, Lane County, and assigned case managers to work with individuals and families that were displaced by the Holiday Farm Fire to connect them to this housing opportunity. The project will address inequitable access to high quality housing in low-income rural communities and community revitalization post disaster.
Applications will be prioritized based on OHCS funding requirements:
- Priority 1: Previous residents of Lazy Days
- Priority 2: Impacted households who owned and lost their manufactured home from the 2020 Labor Day Fires. Must have been the owner-occupant of the disaster damaged property in an impacted manufactured housing park at the time of disaster and the damaged property must have been the applicant’s primary residence at the time of the disaster.
- Priority 3: Impacted households who owned and lost their primary residence from the 2020 Labor Day Fires if the applicant lost their home, but didn’t own the land or if they owned the land and it is now unbuildable.
- Priority 4: Impacted households who were renting and lost their primary residence for the 2020 Labor Day Fires. Impacted renters would move into the park as renters and Homes for Good can work with residents to move towards home ownership over time.
- Priority 5: Renters without a verified housing loss, but who were renting in the impacted county at the time of the disaster and were affected by the destabilization of the affordable rental housing market as a result of the disaster.
