I just finished my build last fall
I just finished my build last fall (I built the Barnhouse Retreat!) and had such a great experience building with my DEN plans. I cannot say enough about Mike and his team. The designs are clean, stylish and efficient and also super easy to revise during the building process. The house turned out so much better than I could have hoped for.
Couldn't love DEN more
We have been really impressed with DEN, ever since we started our first construction project in 2023 with their A-Frame 2.2 model. Since then, we have built two further DEN models and continue to be impressed with the quality of their plans and the ease of dealing with the company. Highly recommend, especially for anyone looking to build a cabin for the first time.
DEN Outdoors three project packages
DEN Outdoors three packages available provide flexible assistance for a building project. Their Planning Package, Building Package, or consideration to use the Prefab Package give great check points to validate time to complete and budget projections.
Practical process and good experience
Beautiful designs, simple, elegant, and thought through. Flexible purchase process too. We switched designs part way through and this was not an issue, because preliminary and final designs are separate. Separating this for purposes of shopping around vs final design are useful for a first time home building experience.
ALL YOU NEED IS DEN Outdoors
The plans were incredibly detailed and provided everything my builder needed. The ongoing customer service from DEN was always responsive and very helpful. The finished product is beautiful!
Mike is so thoughtful
Mike is so thoughtful and the team is a pleasure to work with. We are so excited to bring home to life with the DEN team.
