OAK CREEK HOMES WINS BIG AT 2025 MANUFACTURED HOUSING AWARDS
Company Recognized Again for Excellence in Single Section Home Design LEAGUE CITY, Texas, May 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Oak Creek Homes has once again earned national recognition, receiving the top award for Manufactured Home Design – Single Section at the 2025 Excellence in Manufactured Housing Awards. The award, hosted by the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI) at Congress & Expo, highlights exceptional work in the manufactured home industry—and this marks the second consecutive year Oak Creek has secured this honor. The winning model, The Tiffany J76K, is the largest singlewide manufactured home in the Diamond Series —measuring 18 feet wide by 76 feet long—and is built at Oak Creek's Fort Worth facility. Designed with feedback from real customers, this 1,330-square-foot ENERGY STAR® certified home blends modern style with affordable luxury. With three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a spacious open layout, The Tiffany makes home ownership more accessible without compromising comfort or design. Among 85 total entries across 17 categories, Oak Creek Homes was also named a finalist in Manufactured Home Design – Multi-section for The Vue S58-68M, and in Small Volume Manufacturer of the Year – Three Plants or Less. These recognitions reinforce the company's innovative work in both single-section and multi-section home design. Building on a Legacy of Award-Winning Designs Oak Creek Homes continues its tradition of design excellence, following up its 2024 recognition as Small Manufacturer of the Year with more national honors. That year, two Smart Cottage models also won top design awards: The Crane for Best Single Section Home, applauded for its durable construction and efficient layout; and The Swan for Best Multi Section Home, noted for its distinctive exterior and light-filled open floor plan. These consecutive wins in 2024 and 2025 reflect Oak Creek's commitment to building stylish, functional homes that meet the evolving needs of modern families. "Being recognized again for The Tiffany shows how listening to our homeowners drives better design," said Dwayne Teeter, CEO at Oak Creek Homes. "We're proud that both our single-section and multi-section homes meet today's real-world needs in affordability, comfort, quality, and energy efficiency." Meeting Modern Needs with Functional, Affordable Homes Oak Creek's singlewide design, The Tiffany, stands out for its thoughtful features—such as stainless steel appliances (now upgraded to LG, America's #1 appliance brand, with new orders), an LED fireplace, a dual-vanity private suite, smart energy-saving materials, and weather-ready construction. The model reflects a shift in how families view manufactured homes—as stylish, efficient spaces designed for everyday living and effortless entertaining, a theme showcased in their fun "Breakfast at Tiffany's" award submission. Equally bold, The Vue reimagines multi-section manufactured housing with a modern, "container-home inspired" exterior and an interior packed with 56 cabinets, large entertainment zones, and smart home integration. Its TEXASIZED durability ensures resilience in harsh weather while offering affordable luxury.
