I’m looking at getting a new house and kinda like the Ridgeline houses. Was looking for some reviews from owners/users of either the wheel house models or the skid house model.
What I’m looking for:
I’m looking for an aluminum framed skid house or possibly wheel house. The house will be primarily used on lake of the woods where I have a cabin so I’m not looking for sleeper/rv style house. I want to get just the shell and then finish the inside as I want. Looking at either 8×12 or the 6.5×14 plus v.i have a track truck so I’m not limited to roads. 90% of the time a skid house would be just fine but there are the times I would like to be able to bring the house to friends lake places or have the ability to use it for a night or two at hunting camp or eelpout fest.
If I do go with the wheelhouse I like the design of the axel system, no winches no motors nothing really to break. I have learned over the years that if something can break or go wrong it will happen when your 20 miles off shore and it’s dark and cold. So I figure the less things to break the better. I would have skis for the house when pulling it on the lake which is nice for cross country travel as it gets the house up off the snow whereas the skid house can tend to drag when getting off trails.
If anyone would care to chime In and share their thoughts that would be great!
