About Us
Turtle Tuff Shelters began in 2005 with a desire to design and build a light weight, portable, strong, low-cost, quality geodesic dome shelter. The geodesic dome is the lightest frame structure for its weight in existence. We have selected cover and floor material that will resist UV rays, high winds, rain and snow, for many years.
The Turtle Tuff is not a tent, but a very strong home away from home. It can be used in an emergency (earthquake, hurricane, etc.) to relocate to a safe area and with a few hours set up, have a safe dwelling for the family in any weather.
We look forward to providing you with this great shelter for years to come!
Available with the following components
- Strong, light-weight geodesic frame (hubs hold 300+ lbs.)
- Space age, light-weight, High R value insulation kit
- Heavy duty, puncture/tear-resistant cover and floor
- Wood stove ready
- Instructions and photos for easy assembly
Customer Testimonials
"I researched many types of shelters before deciding on the Turtle Tuff. The unique features of the Turtle Tuff, such as its geodesic design give it more room and less weight than any other shelter or tent. It is comparable in strength to a Yurt, but much more portable and easy to set up. In addition, the low cost, with extras such as the solar light and wood stove were very appealing."
