What They’re Saying

Hi! I want to thank you for your design of the VERMONT COTTAGE. We really enjoy the coziness and comfort of the rustic looking cabin. We have had soooo many compliments on this simple design. It is really befitting to have something like this out at the lake. My wife and I completed the project with our own two hands and we just love it! Again thank you very much, it was well worth.

Everything went very well with both deliveries this week and I was highly impressed with how Petr and the other guy (did not get his name, unfortunately) worked. I was not expecting the ramp with the woodshed/storage shed and was pleasantly surprised to see it. Thanks for adding it. It certainly shows the extra lengths you go to. Very much appreciated. I'm very happy with both buildings.

It was a pleasure doing business with you and I hope to again some day.

Best wishes for a good summer.
