It’s a great question and one we hear often. The truth, is the only thing we share with traditional yurts is the round shape. Freedom Yurt-Cabin Kits are fundamentally different, offering code-compliant structural engineering and energy code-compliant performance of a permanent structure. Why Freedom Yurt-Cabin Kits Stand Apart:

• Not a traditional soft-sided yurt: No fabric, No lattice; our system is a true hard-sided structure built for long-term durability.
• Built for real-world conditions: Featuring true R-value insulation (not reflective barrier insulation), minimum 115 mph wind rating, engineered snow-load capacities that meet or exceed most building code requirements; offering a true 4-season yurt structure.
• Engineered, prefabricated structure: Every Freedom Yurt-Cabin is a fully engineered, prefabricated Yurt-Cabin kit, designed for efficient installation and high performance.
• Integrated construction system: Includes an engineered floor system, solid insulated walls, and an open wooden cathedral ceiling that is fully insulated.
• Freedom Yurt-Cabin kits deliver the uniqueness of a yurt with the strength, safety, and energy efficiency of a fully engineered, code-compliant round structure, creating one of the most durable and premium hard-sided yurts available today.

Our hard-sided Yurt-Cabins are engineered to the 2021 International Building Code (IBC) standards, ensuring structural integrity in all 4-seasons.

This is a great question, and one that doesn’t have a simple answer. Companies usually respond with vague statements like “a long time” or “forever if you take care of it.” We prefer to give a more clear and honest explanation. Our hard-sided Yurt-Cabin kits have been in use around the world since 2014, with many being lived in full-time. The true life span of your cabin depends on a couple key factors:

• Material quality: Our premium yurt kits are built with 4-season, long-lasting materials. Including: pressure-treated structural lumber, galvanized metals, fiberglass doors, dual-pane glass windows, to Douglas Fir rafters with a commercial-grade roof cover membrane. Every component has been chosen intentionally for strength, stability, and durability.
• Maintenance performed: Like any well-built wood structure, basic upkeep, such as staining, sealing, and routine inspections, helps your cabin stay weather-tight and strong. With simple periodic maintenance, your Yurt-Cabin is designed to last many decades.

We’ve chosen a PVC-woven membrane roof cover because it delivers long-lasting durability and is easier to repair or replace. The PVC-woven membrane is especially resourceful in remote locations where traditional roofing materials may be harder to access. The membrane also helps regulate interior temperatures in both hot and cold climates, allowing your Yurt-Cabin to function as a true 4-season yurt structure.
