Community type: An RV park or resort that welcomes tiny homes on wheels and park models on long-term or seasonal sites.

The Retreat at Hickory Hills is a 300-acre Owen County resort on US 231 near Quincy with two private lakes, a disc golf course, on-site dining, and a text-first concierge for seasonal and monthly contracts. The operator welcomes BYO park models and destination tiny homes alongside turnkey cabin inventory—positioned as southern Indiana's flagship seasonal resort pad program rather than a dense urban RV row.

Community lots, backyard ADUs, and raw land each follow different rules. We run a parcel-specific review—zoning, setbacks, utilities, flood exposure, and the dwelling-vs-RV path—before you buy land or order a unit.
