Irontown Modular · Authorized Dealer
Explore Irontown’s nine park models, built in Spanish Fork, Utah. My Cozy Outdoors is your authorized Irontown Modular dealer and direct point of contact from your first question to delivery. Your quote includes free zoning guidance. Irontown is the official seller where a state license applies.
Idaho calls it a park model recreational vehicle. Idaho Code 49-117 defines temporary accommodations for recreational, camping or seasonal use, built on a single chassis, originally mounted on wheels and no more than 400 sq ft in set-up mode. The manufacturer must certify compliance with ANSI A119.5.
Irontown’s nine park models fit that definition. Six are 330 to 398 sq ft, and three are 200 sq ft studios. All are 10 to 14 ft wide and ship on wheels on a single chassis. They have no holding tanks, so your site needs sewer or septic, water and electric hookups.
Some Idaho counties have a written route for living on your own land. Others limit use to recreational stays, construction stays or RV parks. We strongly recommend contacting your local planning or building office. Before ordering, you must confirm zoning, permits, code compliance and any park rules with your local planning/building office and applicable park.
Idaho separates how a park model is built from where you can place and use it. Meeting the state definition does not give you permission to occupy a particular lot. The county and city summaries below reflect rules read in September 2026.
These summaries cover unincorporated land, based on codes read in September 2026. Town names help you locate the area; land inside a city follows city rules. City areas of impact can have different requirements. MCO can share the code sections it found and suggest questions.
| County | Park model on your land | What the local rule says |
|---|---|---|
| Bonner County Sandpoint area, Priest River, Priest Lake, Hope, Sagle | Allowed with conditions | BCRC 12-496 permits RV dwellings in most zones: one below one acre, two on larger lots, with location permits and house setbacks.

| Lemhi County Salmon area, North Fork, Leadore | Allowed with conditions | Development Code 8.3 allows RV living on your land outside Salmon’s city impact area. Beyond six months, requirements include approved septic, a 911 address renewed every six months, a setback plot plan and the solid waste fee. |
| Idaho County Grangeville, Riggins, Kooskia, Elk City | Allowed with conditions | The county has no zoning; subdivision and mobile home ordinances still apply. You need septic approval, a North Central Public Health energizing card before power connection, and state electrical and plumbing permits. City impact areas follow other rules.

| Caribou County Soda Springs, Grays Lake, Bancroft | Allowed with conditions | Sec. 12.12 allows one occupied RV per lot for 120 days per calendar year, or 12 months with a possible one-year extension while building. We read a 2020 copy; confirm current text with county staff. |
| Canyon County rural Nampa and Caldwell area, Middleton | Allowed with conditions | CCZO 07-15-05 includes park models as RVs and allows up to 90 days per calendar year with a temporary use permit from the Director. The county also allows a stay while you build a house. |
| Bear Lake County Fish Haven, St. Charles, Montpelier area | Allowed with conditions | The county allows temporary or intermittent recreational use only, with approved septic for a park model. Dwelling use, renting, skirting and attached decks are barred; tires stay on. A code rewrite is pending; ask county staff about current rules. Source: Bear Lake County Land Use Ordinance (2024) |
| Custer County Stanley, Challis, Mackay | Ask first | Ordinance 2026-05 allows two seasonal/accessory RV dwellings per parcel with zoning certificate, septic approval and address; no renting or attached decks. Its RV definition requires less than 10 body feet in width. Ask how it classifies Irontown’s 10–14 ft models. |
| Blaine County rural Hailey, Bellevue, Ketchum area, Carey | Ask first | BCC 9-3-11 allows 150–400 sq ft tiny homes on wheels beside existing houses, requiring NOAH ANSI+ beyond ANSI A119.5, insulated skirting and site snow-load compliance. Ask about model eligibility. The program expires May 17, 2027 unless renewed. |
| Fremont County Island Park, Ashton, St. Anthony | Ask first | Personal camping on rural lots is permitted without a clear day limit, but RV residence is prohibited. Construction stays need approved septic and are limited to two years. RV parks require five acres and a Class II permit. Source: Fremont County Development Code |
| Boundary County Bonners Ferry, Moyie Springs, Naples | Ask first | The ordinance does not name park models or settle full-time RV living. Private recreational RV use is unregulated, but any residence needs a Residential Placement Permit. Ask county staff how your proposed use is classified. Source: Boundary County Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance |
| Boise County Idaho City, Garden Valley, Crouch, Lowman | Ask first | Ordinance 2024-02 is silent on private-lot RV use and excludes RVs from dwellings. Campgrounds, RV parks, guest ranches and resorts are conditional uses. Ask county staff about your proposed placement. |
| Bonneville County Swan Valley, Irwin, Palisades | Ask first | The code does not address RVs on private lots. Travel trailer parks require at least 2.5 acres in Commercial, MH or R-F zones. Ask county staff how a park model would be treated. Source: Bonneville County Code Chapter 156 (Zoning) |
| Twin Falls County rural Twin Falls, Buhl, Hansen | Ask first | Sec. 8-8-6 allows one occupied travel trailer per lot for 90 days per calendar year. Its definition excludes units needing a special highway permit, which park models need. Ask county staff about classification. |

| Franklin County Preston area | RV parks and resorts only | Sec. 153.123 requires ten acres for seasonal RV parks and campgrounds, operating April through October. Attached additions are barred. |
City limits matter. Sandpoint’s rules differ sharply from unincorporated Bonner County, and Boise’s tiny-home-on-wheels provision excludes RVs as written. An opening for a tiny home does not automatically cover an ANSI A119.5 park model.
| City | Park model on your land | What the local rule says |
|---|---|---|
| Boise | Ask first | City Code 11-03-03.2.P allows backyard tiny homes on wheels under certification and site conditions, but excludes RVs. The city classifies park models as RVs, so a standard ANSI A119.5 model does not qualify as written. Ask a planner in writing. |
| Hailey | Ask first | Chapter 17.08D allows one 100–400 sq ft tiny home on wheels behind a single-family house, with NOAH+ certification or approved inspection, local snow-load compliance, skirting, anchoring and city utilities. Stays must be at least 31 days. Ask about model eligibility. |

| Moscow | Allowed with conditions | The city defines park models by ANSI A119.5 and allows year-round RV park stays with full hookups. Private-lot use needs a 60-day permit, once yearly. We read an archived copy; confirm current text with city staff. Source: Moscow City Code (Title 6, Trailer Homes and RV Parks) |
| Meridian | RV parks and resorts only | Section 11-3A-20 bars RVs, park trailers and mobile tiny houses as residences outside approved RV parks. An approved park is required. |

If you own a resort, RV park or campground, plan for sewer or septic, water and electric at each park model site. New RV parks need conditional or special use permits almost everywhere in Idaho. Local stay limits vary, including seasonal spaces in Kootenai County and 180 days in Nampa. If you lease lots to customers who own their units, Idaho Code 55-2003 counts a park model as a home under the Manufactured Home Residency Act; review that chapter with your lawyer. Explore Park model cabins for resorts and campgrounds.
Among the Idaho counties we read, Bonner and Lemhi have written routes to live in a park model on your own land, Idaho County has no zoning, and Gem allows permitted residency for up to two years. Each has conditions. Most others allow only seasonal or recreational stays, a stay while you build, or RV parks. Around Boise and Coeur d’Alene, the county codes point park models to RV parks. Among the other counties we read, Madison, Cassia and Owyhee point RVs to RV parks; Shoshone, Benewah, Clearwater and Adams are silent, so ask first; Nez Perce allows 60 days yearly with notice.

Southeast Idaho is inside the included delivery miles. Delivery includes the first 250 miles from the Spanish Fork factory, then $12.75 per mile. Examples within those miles include Preston, Fish Haven, Montpelier, Pocatello and Soda Springs. Choose your nearest town and model in the page calculator.
Estimate only. Designer Series starting price. Pilot cars, setting the unit, site work, permits and tax are not included.
Approximate road distances include Idaho Falls at 263 miles, Twin Falls at 269, Boise at 390 and Sandpoint at 784. Boise is about 140 miles beyond the included distance, for about $1,800 in delivery. Sandpoint delivery is about $6,800.
Irontown’s nine park models travel as oversize loads. The carrier gets the Idaho Transportation Department permit under IDAPA 39.03.01. Loads over 12 ft wide travel in daylight; over 13 ft, weekday commuter hours are barred. Red-coded routes stop travel at 2 p.m. Friday and prohibit weekend travel. The permit sets pilot car needs by route and width. Pilot cars cost extra; setting the unit is quoted separately.
Idaho sales or use tax is 6% of the price; the manufactured-home reduction does not apply. Your quote shows whether tax is collected with the sale or paid at titling. Title within 30 days of delivery at your county assessor’s motor vehicle office, with the manufacturer’s certificate of origin, bill of sale and VIN inspection; ask that office what it needs. RV registration carries a yearly fee of $8.50 on the first $1,000 of market value plus $5 per additional $1,000. RV-registered units are exempt from property tax under Idaho Code 63-602J. A unit permanently attached to a foundation or with an attached building addition cannot register as an RV and is assessed as personal property instead.
Schedule a factory visit in Spanish Fork, Utah, where Irontown builds its park models. The factory is about an hour south of Salt Lake City International Airport, about three and a half hours from Pocatello, or six hours from Boise.
It depends on the county. Bonner permits RV dwelling units under local conditions, and Lemhi allows full-time use with additional requirements after six months. Idaho County has no zoning but requires health and utility approvals. Gem’s residency permit is limited to one year with one possible extension. Valley’s code does not settle year-round use.
A park model is not an ADU under Idaho Code 67-6541. Boise’s separate tiny-home-on-wheels provision excludes RVs, and the city lists park models as RVs. A standard ANSI A119.5 park model does not qualify as written. Ask a city planner in writing about your proposed unit.
Rental permission is local. Bonner County allows a yearly vacation rental permit for an RV dwelling connected to septic or sewer under BCRC 12-484. Teton, Bear Lake, Custer and Kootenai counties bar the rental uses described above. In Valley County, renting makes the lot an RV park requiring a conditional use permit.
Ask the county for your site’s required snow load and MCO for the model’s roof rating. Valley County design loads are 120 to 150 pounds per sq ft. Blaine County and Hailey require their tiny-home-on-wheels units to meet site snow loads. Bonner County allows an RV dwelling under a snow roof.
Yes. Idaho Code 49-117 has no minimum size, only a 400 sq ft maximum. The studios fit the state park model definition. A bathroom, kitchenette and deck are optional. Blaine County and Hailey have separate tiny-home-on-wheels certification and site requirements; size alone does not establish eligibility.
Your unit ships on wheels on a single chassis. Wheels, skirting and decks depend on county and park rules. Valley requires wheels and road licensing for its private-lot allowance. Gem requires skirting, while Bear Lake bars skirting and attached decks. Bonner allows a snow roof.
Idaho sales or use tax is 6%. Title the unit at your county assessor’s motor vehicle office within 30 days of delivery. Bring the manufacturer’s certificate of origin, bill of sale and VIN inspection; ask the office about its requirements. RV registration has a yearly value-based fee. Foundation attachment or building additions change registration and property-tax treatment.
Delivery includes the first 250 miles from Spanish Fork, then $12.75 per mile. Southeast Idaho destinations such as Pocatello are within the included miles. The carrier obtains the oversize permit; route and width affect timing and pilot cars. Pilot cars cost extra, and setting the unit is quoted separately.
This is a plain-language summary of rules as we read them in September 2026, not legal advice or an approval. Rules change, and your local planning or building office decides how its rules apply. You are responsible for confirming zoning, permits and code compliance, obtaining any required permits, and confirming any park requirements with the park before ordering.

Customer Reviews

LOVE this suana. Maya and Norse Steam Team were amazing to work with!

A sauna turns your garden into a spa oasis. We debated it for a while, but after renovating our house, we pulled the trigger and bought a sauna from Norse Steam and Maya. She was always super responsive and helpful throughout the process. Don't kid yourself, getting a really nice sauna is not that easy. Sizing and heating need to be figured out, as does the building, but we have always had a helpful partner on our side. She never upsold us on anything we didn't need, and we got some nice freebies when the sauna was delivered. And now we can really enjoy every moment in our garden.

I'm really happy with my sauna purchase. Maya gave above and beyond excellent customer service. She wasn't pushy and gave impressive followup after the delivery to make sure everything was just right.

I enjoy my FD2 Sauna with Red Light, Infrared and radiant heat. Use it 5x a week and my post workout soreness is minimal and sleep great. Maya at Norse Steam was excellent to work with.
got amazing support for all my questions, fast delivery, and the team even reached out to me after to make sure everything was in order. perfect experience. highly recommended.

We purchased the 3-person sauna for our outdoor garden. We chose the cube sauna for the aesthetic and could not be happier.
I assembled by myself except for the 2 large panels (requires a few people). Instructions were good - took me two partial Saturdays to complete and a few hours to unpack and organize in advance of assembly. Had my elec. add a NEMA enclosure on the back for the controller and power for lights and a 2nd panel for the wireless control.
Customer service was excellent
They really went above and beyond to get my sauna up and running. I would really recommend them for any of your needs.

Awesome Sauna and Awesome Company and Experience purchasing it from Maya!
After much research I chose the Finnmark FD-2 and it has met and exceeded all my expectations! Easy to assemble and it functions great - just as advertised. I highly recommend it for home use!

Recently purchased the Finnmark one person after much research. Extremely happy with it and the ordering process. Maya was very responsive and helpful during the process and keeping us updated while we waited for shipment. There were several places I could have ordered this, but i chose Norse Steam based on the communication and customer service which was fantastic. The shipment was also excellent. The setup was pretty seamless for two people - but the best part is the sauna experience 10/10

Maya is amazing - super helpful and responsive. Looked at many stores, these guys have the best prices and service. Highly recommend

Norse Steam, and specifically Maya, were extremely helpful as I was making the decision for our Sauna. I was able to get all of the necessary details to make a decision as construction was happening in my backyard to make space for it.
We absolutely love the CL7G. It is extremely comfortable for 6 people (can fit more less comfortably). The Thermory Spruce and Aspen in the interior smells great. The lighting is lovely. We paired the CL7G with the Harvia Spirit 10.5kw.

Had great experience shopping at Norse Steam for the new heater. They had very good deal, with rocks. Customer service was good, and responded very fast with my questions. Received the heater, and it looks good, and the quality seem to be great. Will install soon, and am very excited to start experiencing sauna the way it ment to be

thanks Norse Steam for flawless transaction - I got instant replies on my questions, received competitive price on the wood stove and got it delivered within two weeks!
Can highly recommend Norse Steam for others.

I got the Norse Steam SaunaLife wood-fired hot tub, the S4N model, and its been seriously great. It heats up quicker than I expected, usually around an hour and a half, and once its hot, it stays that way for a good long while. The wood-fired system is simple to use, and honestly kind of fun.
The tub itself feels solid and well put together. The thermo-spruce exterior looks beautiful in person, and the fiberglass interior is smooth, deep, and easy to clean. Its the kind of setup that just works without a bunch of fuss, which I really appreciate.
Also, the team at Norse Steam was genuinely great to work with. Super helpful, quick to respond, and made the process really easy from start to finish. It felt like they actually cared that I was happy with it. The tub has totally become a go-to way to unwind, and I wouldnt change a thing.
This is a terrific stove from Harvia and is top quality, as youd expect from a reputable brand thats been in the sauna business for so long. Doing business with Norse Steam was also a pleasure. The order was processed quickly, communications from the company kept me up to date with processing and shipping, and everything arrived in perfect condition. Even scheduling the freight delivery for the stove and stones was a piece of cake. Everything went very smoothly and I will surely do business with them again in the future. Thanks for making it so easy

Maya was so knowledgeable and responsive. She helped me understand the product options and found a fantastic solution that fit our needs. Her follow through was very helpful and made us comfortable with our decision. We are extremely happy with the end result!

I recently purchased the Harvia Club sauna equipment, and I am thoroughly impressed with both the product and the customer service experience. The heaters robust performance and durable stainless steel construction make it ideal for larger sauna spaces, providing consistent heat and a relaxing environment. Its compatibility with advanced controls ensures a personalized sauna experience every time.
The customer service team was exceptional, prompt, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the purchase process. They ensured smooth delivery and provided clear guidance on installation and operation. Overall, I highly recommend Harvia Club for anyone seeking premium-quality sauna equipment backed by excellent support!

Great experience purchasing Finnmark FD-2 from Norse Steam. Good communication and easy to assemble. Temperature increases quickly (30 minutes or less to 140) and maintains well. So far this has been a great purchase.

We purchased the Finnmark SD-1 sauna. Maya was extremely helpful with the purchase. We had an issue with the sauna not reaching the maximum temperature, and Maya connected us with the appropriate technician that explained how to correct the issue. The sauna now heats to the maximum temperature (170 degrees) in less than an hour, and it is a great unit. We are very happy with it, and we would definitely purchase from NorseSteam if we needed any other items.

I recently purchased a sauna from Norse Steam, and I couldn't be more impressed with the entire experience. From start to finish, their customer service was exceptional, and Maya deserves special recognition for her outstanding support!
Maya was incredibly knowledgeable and patient, answering all my questions about the sauna features, installation process, and maintenance. She went above and beyond to ensure I selected the perfect model for my home. Even after the purchase, Maya followed up to make sure everything was running smoothly and that I was satisfied with my sauna.
The sauna itself is top-notch beautifully designed, durable, and easy to use. It's clear that Norse Steam takes pride in the quality of their products and their commitment to customer satisfaction.
If you're considering a sauna, I wholeheartedly recommend Norse Steam. With their excellent customer service and high-quality products, you're in great hands. Thank you, Maya, and the entire Norse Steam team for a fantastic experience!
