Upgrade Options: For added flexibility, you can upgrade the Big Bertha Cabin to include 1.5 or 2 bathrooms for an additional fee.
Construction & Insulation:
Walls: Constructed from treated Southern Yellow Pine, 4 in x 6 in solid timber, providing robust durability.
Insulation: Standard R19 insulation in the ceiling, with optional upgrades to R30 for colder climates like Colorado (additional fee applies).
Chinking: We use Log Jam (Perma-Chink) to seal the timber, accommodating wood expansion and contraction through the seasons for optimal efficiency.
Material Upgrades:
Cedar: Upgrade to a fully cedar cabin for a 25% upcharge.
Eastern White Pine: Upgrade to Eastern White Pine for a 20% upcharge.
Transport & Setup:
Hinge System: The cabin’s porch and roof feature a hinge system for easy transportation. Upon delivery, both the porch and roof will need to be reassembled on-site, a process that typically takes 1 to 2 full days.
Shipping & Setup Fees: The base model pricing includes shipping and setup. Please note that prices for appliances, heating, cooling, and electric packages are separate.
Foundations: If you would like your cabin installed on a block crawlspace or basement foundation, you will need to pay for and arrange a crane to hoist the cabin onto the foundation. Additionally, there will be extra setup fees for our team to remain on-site during this assembly process.
Additional Features:
Electrical Package: 200 amp or 100 amp options available for $10,000.
Plumbing Package: Includes installation of tubs, toilets, sinks, and rough plumbing for $10,000.
Heating & Cooling: Mini-split systems available upon request for an additional fee.
Foundation: Requires a 6-inch slab with rebar; slab length and width dimensions will be determined for you based on what size cabin you purchase from us. Alternatively, save on costs with 2-foot runners placed 10 feet off-center to match the cabin’s wooden runners.

Roof: Made from 26-gauge metal with a choice of 12 colors; matching shutters are available. You can pick any color roof you want.
Windows: Double-pane with Argon gas, designed for easy cleaning and all-season durability.
Porch Swing: One swing included; additional swings available for $375 each.
