Kline's Resort
Community type: A manufactured-home or park-model land-lease community, often 55+/active-adult, that accommodates tiny living.
Kline's Resort is a long-running lakefront resort community on Klinger Lake offering park-model and cottage living with a marina, beach, and clubhouse. Owners place park models on leased lots, making it a seasonal lakefront community for small-footprint homes rather than a THOW village.
