Mich. Comp. Laws § § 125.2316a
Occupancy of mobile home in seasonal mobile home park.
Operative Text
Sec. 16a. Mobile homes located in a seasonal mobile home park may be occupied on a full-time basis from April 1 to October 31, but shall not be occupied for more than 15 consecutive days in any 30-day period from November 1 to March 31.
Under MCL § 125.2316a, mobile homes situated in a seasonal mobile home park are permitted to be occupied continuously from April 1 through October 31 each year. During the off-season months of November 1 through March 31, however, occupancy is restricted to no more than 15 consecutive days within any rolling 30-day window. This rule draws a clear distinction between the open season, when full-time residency is allowed, and the restricted winter period, when extended stays are not permitted.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of seasonal mobile home parks governed by MCL § 125.2316a should be aware that their park rules and lease agreements may need to reflect the statutory occupancy calendar. During the April 1–October 31 season, full-time occupancy is permissible, but park management generally monitors and documents occupancy patterns from November 1 through March 31 to ensure no resident exceeds 15 consecutive days in any 30-day period. Maintaining clear written records of occupancy and communicating the off-season restrictions to residents in advance are practices consistent with compliance under this provision.

Under MCL § 125.2316a, tenants living in a seasonal mobile home park have a defined right to occupy their home on a full-time basis from April 1 through October 31. From November 1 through March 31, the law limits stays to no more than 15 consecutive days within any 30-day period, which affects how long a tenant may remain at the property during winter months. Tenants who believe this provision is being applied incorrectly or used to improperly restrict their occupancy rights may wish to consult a tenant-rights organization or review the Michigan Mobile Home Commission's resources for guidance.
