Camp Alcove
Our Camp Alcove was fashioned after traditional Adirondack style lean-to’s. Our lean-to shelter kit includes a generous overhang and a built-in bench for ample seating and camping gear storage.
Are you a Camp Coordinator finding that you need some good old-fashioned shelter for the scouts? Well LOOK NO FURTHER, because we’re upgrading you from sticks and pine limbs you’re used to. This lean-to shed kit design is a classic forest foraging group shelter. Perfect for summer camps, sports fields, bus stops, parks, playgrounds, it would even make a great roadside stand or garden addition. In the Green Mountains, Adirondacks, and other beautiful wood and mountain-scapes, similar structures provide trail side shelter along the famous Long Trail. This alcove’s generous overhang provides extra protection from the elements and sure beats huddling up in the elements with the other boy scouts. This versatile design and rugged frame provide an affordable solution for your shelter needs that will last for years and years to come.
Offered as frame only camp building kits, complete pre-cut kits or step-by-step plans nationwide, our outdoor post and beam outbuilding solutions give you the extra room you need for open sided tool storage or outdoor play. If you live within our Northeast delivery area, consider purchasing a design fully assembled and delivered to your prepared site. Great for camping areas, picnic places, and a backyard hut for sleeping with nature but up off the ground.
An outbuilding gives you a convenient place to store the equipment you need to keep your home’s landscape looking good. Even a small shed has plenty of room for a lawn mower, snowblower, leaf blower or trimmer along with essential garden tools, buckets, and other accessories.
A large storage shed gives you a place to store ladders, carts, and other work equipment in an easily accessible and organized fashion. A large shed can also serve dual purposes, becoming a combined storage shed and workspace for hobbies such as woodworking, pottery or jewelry making.
