Canmore Cabin Kits
Inspired by the Canadian Rockies – at home anywhere.The Canmore cabin design’s name comes from the settlement in Canada’s breathtakingly beautiful Rocky Mountains. Its style is evocative of the cabins built by the area’s first pioneering settlers. The overhanging roof provides protection from the weather while adding rustic character. The loft provides loads of storage space and sleeping room. The cedar porch needs nothing more than a rocking chair and a good book to achieve perfection.
