I will be doing something similar this summer. What type of wood are you using for the walls? I enclosed my patio last year and used tin and cedar fence pickets for walls. I thought it turned out pretty good, however is was a small area. My cabin will be similar style as yours Barn shape however my front door will be on one end with a covered porch. Yours is looking good.

Anyway thought I would post some pics from start to finish. These pics are old and I will put some new ones next weekend. Almost have all the electrical roughed in and will be framing on the bedroom and bathroom next. Also will have a small deck on the front and a 12x32 covered deck on the back and an additional uncovered 10x32 extending out from that. Already have water and electricity and a 20 foot storage container. Will be really nice when done and can"t wait to finish it up finally.
I take it that it is 32' long
How wide is it?
What are the dimensions of your loft area?

Apologies I didn’t see my post from yesterday.... I thought it didn’t post. Anyway, thanks and will be looking for the new pics

There was also a thread recently about a guy selling his place by rocksprings and he had a decent solar pannel and rain water catch system built. He might have some decent ideas too.

Well finally figured out how to add pics from my phone only took me 6 months. Been doing tons of work out at the place. Mostly clearing cedar and improving water pipes and blinds and tripods. Worked on putting up one of the half walls for one side of the loft today. Just need to find some wider trim for the top and the sides of the opening. My son has been helping out a ton since he is home from college because of the virus crap. He was able to get a cow elk last week with his bow which was awesome and also a ton of work! Lol.
