How It Works
From your first click to move-in day, our process is designed to be simple, clear, and customized to you.
Cabins Built for Life—Delivered in Just a Few Steps
At Ethos, we limit our builds to small seasonal batches. That means more care in production, faster delivery times, and a personalized journey from start to finish.
Whether you're building a weekend retreat, an off-grid home, or an income-generating rental, our team will guide you every step of the way.

The Ethos Journey
Reserve
Secure your place in our next build batch with a refundable deposit. Reservations are limited and prioritized by order received.
Design + Customize
Our team helps tailor your Ethos cabin to your vision—selecting finishes, upgrades, off-grid packages, and any regional considerations.
Site Review + Permitting
We help you confirm site access and prep requirements. If permitting is needed, we’ll guide you through it or connect you with a local expert.
Build
We construct your cabin at our Idaho factory using steel framing, SIPs, and high-performance finishes. You’ll receive updates as key milestones are hit.
Delivery + Set
Your completed cabin is delivered via flatbed and craned onto your prepared foundation. Our team oversees final install and utility hookups.
