Our Owner’s Association defined Class A in the traditional sense as motor homes and converted buses with a flat front (not a truck, van or semi-front end).

Additionally, Class A motorcoaches must be a minimum of 28 feet in length and be no older than ten years of age.

MotorCoach Resort Lake Erie Shores will utilize talented designers to put into place the best ideas of each new lot owner as they design the interiors. Customization will be fun with such a flexible platform to work with. Building out the bungalow and lot all at once will be a good opportunity for a perfect indoor/outdoor balance.

The general layout of the lot including brick paver pad color, the bungalow location and exterior finish will need to be determined so the shell can be built. Beyond this the unit can remain unfinished on the interior until final plans for layout can be accomplished. Basic landscaping will be required at the time the bungalow is constructed.

All of the lots at MotorCoach Resort Lake Erie Shores have been and will continue to be open all year for enjoyment. Both with and without coaches, there are residents who enjoy their lots every month of the year. Bungalows offer additional conditioned space that often leads to additional visits by lot owners.
