We offer two yurt models. Our Basic Yurt is handmade using store-bought lumber for the frame, including the roof rafters. The Eco-Yurt is made using sustainably-harvested local lumber for the frame and hand-peeled lodgepole pine roof rafters. Please see our Eco-yurt page for a complete explanation.

Hands on living experience has taught us the necessity of two features we have made standard in our shelters that other companies call “extras”. One is a door awning. An unprotected door is a door that is vulnerable to the elements, causing complications from swelling and water/ice damage. The other is standard 7’ 2” wall height. This feature allows you to have a standard 80” tall door, better window placement, and makes a roomier structure.
