Amish-Built Off-Grid Cabin: Deep Woods Delivery, Review & Tips for Buying One

Thinking about buying an Amish-built cabin? In this video, I share our complete experience—from ordering and delivery to the lessons we learned along the way. You’ll watch our custom off-grid cabin being delivered to a remote site on our 60-acre property, including the process of unloading it from the trailer, transferring it to a Mule transporter, and maneuvering it down a winding wooded trail to its final location near the river. I’ll also cover: • Why we chose to buy instead of build our own cabin • The features we included in our custom order • Why we used paver stones instead of a concrete foundation • What went right and what went wrong • The mistake that resulted in our first cabin being returned and rebuilt • Tips for anyone considering an Amish-built cabin Our cabin specifications: • 10’ x 15’ footprint • Covered porch • 8’ side walls • 9’ peak height • 7 double-pane windows • Insulated floor, walls, and ceiling • Tongue-and-groove interior paneling • Vinyl plank flooring • Electrical package for off-grid use • Powered by an EcoFlow Delta 3 battery system Overall, we’re very happy with both the cabin and the builder, but there were a few surprises along the way. Hopefully our experience can help you make better decisions if you’re considering an Amish-built cabin of your own. Future videos will cover our bunk bed build, solar setup, water system, and other upgrades to this off-grid cabin.
