Off grid living with jake and nicole4/21/2024 Nicole: The assembly process had its moments. We just knew their helpfulness and professionalism with our situation would carry over into their yurt design! Can you talk about the assembly process and what that’s been like? We loved being able to use the Pacific Yurts 3D Yurt Builder on their website to customize a yurt and see what ours would look like!įinally, of all the companies we looked at, Pacific Yurts was the most helpful and responsive to our questions and our ideas when we communicated with them over email or by phone. We were also impressed by Pacific Yurts’ professional social media pages, which allowed us to see a wide variety of ways their yurts were built and lived in among hundreds of different settings. We kept coming back to their yurts because they looked very clean, resilient, and mindfully designed around the structure’s traditions, but with added modern features. Jake: We researched about 10 other yurt companies before choosing Pacific Yurts. We relished the chance to design our own yurt interior, so we thought a Pacific Yurt would be the perfect dwelling for our move to raw forested property in Canada! What made Pacific Yurts standout over other structures or companies on the market? Many of the families we saw living in Yurts had these amazing living spaces that looked comfortable and quite beautiful. Nicole and I also enjoy watching YouTube videos of families and couples who build and live in unique housing. While in the grasslands of Mongolia, I stayed in a traditional Mongolian Yurt – it was an amazing experience! I remember loving the design and feeling of warmth and comfort that the yurt gave me while I was wrapped in wool blankets safe inside that Mongolian Yurt.
