What We Offer

SAGEBRUSH TIPIS are primarily made in the Cheyenne or Sioux style, which have a 3-pole base. I can also make, by request, the Blackfoot or Crow style, which have a 4-pole base (these are priced slightly higher). All Sagebrush Tipis are constructed of durable, premium-grade materials and all stress points are reinforced with leather or extra canvas layers for lasting strength. My experience, skill and attention to detail are hallmarks of the finest quality Tipis available on the market today.

>>>> IN SUMMER 2022, I CELEBRATE 25 YEARS OF TIPI-MAKING!! I'VE BEEN "DOWN-SIZING" ON THE TIPIS IN THE LAST 5 YEARS OR SO. NOWADAYS, I'M FOCUSED ON SIZES 16' AND SMALLER, SO I CAN CONTINUE WORKING WITHOUT INJURY. I'M A GREAT-GRANDMOTHER NOW, AND NOT SO STRONG AS I ONCE WAS. <<<<

These sizes are an average diameter. The Cheyenne and Sioux style Tipis create an egg-shaped area when pitched, so I take the ground measurements from front-to-back and from side-to-side, and average the two. For example: For a “16-foot” Lodge, the front-to-back measures 17.5 feet, and from side-to-side measures 15 feet. I take the average diameter and call this a 16-foot. ***Not all Tipi-makers use this formula....some use only the front-to-back measurement and “round it up”. So the 17.5 feet is rounded up and sold as an “18-foot”, but it would be the same size "footprint" as my 16-foot. When comparison shopping, always ask how the Lodge is measured for size. This sizing difference makes the pricing appear higher for my Tipis. For an accurate comparison, look at the price for the next size larger at another company.

The Full Package and Basic Package are detailed below. The Cover, Liner or Poles can also be ordered separately. (The "Cover Only" option includes Hardware). For those folks wanting to provide their own Poles, Stakes and Lacing Pins, my detailed Instruction Guide gives valuable information about preparing these yourself.

THERE IS A 75% DEPOSIT required to place an order. The remaining balance plus shipping/handling charges must be paid prior to shipment. I accept payment in the form of Cash, Postal Money Order, Personal Check, or PayPal.
