I found Little Great Cabins just 50 miles from Montreal, PQ make a really nice Tiny House. Bought one to use here in Plattsburgh. One does not need to get their tiny house on the west coast for eastern US and Canada. I think you are being inaccurate in your presentation. Look at http://www.littlegreatcampcabin.com to see their product. It is really warm in the north with only a 8000 BTU Direct Vent Propane unit I got from Northern Tool.
It was recommended by them (they installed it for me) for this unit and is great.

Thanks for listening. I do find your blog interesting.

Hi everyone.
Thanks so much for your interest in our log RV’s.
The photos you see are prototypes we produced a few years ago. Ron Hessel owner of Natural log homes is very busy with full size home construction and has put the log Rv’s on the back burner.
I am the US contact for these units and have decided to produce these log wall trailers here in the US. Most of the interest I get is from the US. I have moved from NB, Canada to Berkeley, CA and have started a construction company here. I have been sucsessful with NWD Construction Inc. and have started production again on these units. The material used is a western white cedar, sub-species of westrn red cedar. Each unit will is built to order and customized to each customers’ needs. The newest unit is a 20′ foot trailer with a 12′ foot cabin and 3′foot bunk over. This unit is kept under 990lbs so a regular half ton truck can pull with a bumper hitch. The market for this is snowmobilers, bikers and people that want a log rv that is easy to move, handels well at highway speeds and corners well. I am creating new floor plans with customers for the “stay away” trailers. These can be built to a turn-key level or as a shell to be out fitted on site by customer or local contractors.
I am offering marine grade appliances and systems that are high quality, safe and efficiant. These trailers can be designed and built to be off the grid by using Solar, generators, wind, rain water harvesting, grey & black water systems etc. These trailers are formaldehyde free and are safe & healthy for living. These trailers are also over 10 times more fire resistant than a conventional RV. The structures will last longer that a life time.

How much is the stay away unit, or the foldup first green house shown? Is there solar heat, bath? kitchen applianced? W/D? I really like the woood stove and how it was installed NICE. Could it be put on a slab? Looking for self-sustainability. How much does it cost to bring to SC?
