Set in the Finger Lakes region of New York, Timber Hill Lodge began with a beautiful open setting and a clear vision for a home that would feel connected to the land. The design was shaped around the views, the natural surroundings, and the way the clients wanted to live in the home, with open gathering spaces, warm wood detailing, and a strong indoor-outdoor connection.

As with every Beaver Mountain project, the process involved more than designing a floor plan. From early planning and engineering to material preparation, builder coordination, and construction progress on site, Timber Hill Lodge reflects the careful steps required to bring a custom wood home from concept to reality.

Crafted Before It Reaches the Site

Before construction began on the land, key components of Timber Hill Lodge were prepared through Beaver Mountain’s design, engineering, and manufacturing process. This behind-the-scenes step helps bring clarity and coordination to the build, giving the builder a more organized path once materials arrive on site.

From preframed wall panels to custom wood components and structural details, each piece is prepared as part of a larger plan designed to support the home’s layout, performance, and craftsmanship.

Custom wood components are crafted to support the home’s design and structure.
Preframed wall panels are prepared before arriving on site.
Materials are palletized and protected for delivery to the job site.

From Site to Structure

Timber Hill Lodge began with open Finger Lakes views and moved through each stage of construction with careful planning, engineering, and builder coordination. This stage shows how quickly a well-planned custom home can begin to take shape once the design, engineering, materials, and builder coordination are aligned.
