Meet Clayton Sacramento: New Homes for Oakhurst, CA

11/9/2026

If you're planning a new home on a lot in Oakhurst, Coarsegold, Bass Lake or elsewhere in the Madera County foothills, it helps to know who actually builds it. At Yosemite Homes, the new homes we sell come from Clayton Sacramento, a Clayton home building facility. This post introduces the factory, the two series Oakhurst buyers ask about most, and the questions to ask about any factory-built home before you order one for a mountain lot.

Who is Clayton Sacramento?

Clayton says it has more than 22,000 team members across the country. Clayton Sacramento is the Clayton facility that builds the homes Yosemite Homes sells, including the Carmel and Tempo series you'll see on our site.

Clayton builds its manufactured homes in climate-controlled facilities, which it says gives more control over build timelines and conditions. Clayton also says its homes are inspected before they leave the building facility, and its facilities hold ISO 14001:2015 environmental certification.

For a foothill buyer, a home built indoors means construction isn't waiting on weather at your site. The home arrives in sections, ready to be set on your land.

The federal standard behind the build

Homes built as manufactured homes follow the federal HUD Code. HUD's Office of Manufactured Housing Programs enforces those construction and safety standards, oversees installation standards and runs a dispute resolution program. HUD authorizes a certification label for each section of a home that meets the code. When you tour a home, ask which standard it's built to and, for a HUD Code home, where those labels are.

The Carmel series: smaller homes, simple living

The Carmel series covers compact homes that work well as a full-time place for one or two people, a downsizing move, or a second home on family land. Current posted prices on our site:

• Carmel 12441B: 1 bedroom, 1 bath, 521 sq ft, $91,900
• Carmel 13441B: 1 bedroom, 1 bath, 579 sq ft, $95,900
• Carmel 13482C: 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, 632 sq ft, $100,900
• Carmel 15602A: 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, 900 sq ft, $129,900

Smaller footprints can make a difference on a sloped or tight Oakhurst lot, where there's only so much flat ground to work with.

The Tempo series: room for a family

If you need more space, the Tempo series is worth a look. The Sequence has 4 bedrooms and 2 baths in 1,735 sq ft, 26'4" x 66', listed at $172,900. The Rising Sun is a 2-bedroom, 2-bath home with 1,041 sq ft in a 24' x 44' footprint.

We also have a Clayton Sacramento home in inventory: the Fairpoint 27543F, a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with 1,458 sq ft, 27' x 54', listed at $171,900 at our Jamestown location. It's been one of the most popular homes on our site.

Getting a factory-built home up the hill

The question we hear most from mountain buyers isn't about the factory. It's whether the home can reach their property. As one Yosemite Homes customer wrote: "We were worried that they wouldn't be able to get our home to our property, but they brought it up the hill seamlessly."

Every lot is different. Before you order, plan for road access for the delivery, the foundation, utilities, septic and any grading. Check with Madera County about what's required for your parcel. If you want to adjust the layout, ask early. Another customer wrote that the team "helped me make changes to the floorplan and customize the home."

Questions to ask about any factory-built home

Which plant built this home? Is it built to the HUD Code or to modular code? What does the manufacturer's warranty cover, and who handles service? What changes can I make to the floor plan when I order? How will the home be delivered to my lot, and who handles setup?
