Can tipis be left up year-round?

Absolutely. Our Timberline Cover is your best choice if you are planning on making your tipi a permanent structure. It is flame retardant, cotton/poly blend with an acrylic coating for durability and ease of cleaning. After your tipi has been up for a few months, go inside and push out all of the poles except for the tripod poles. This will keep your tipi cover tight and prevent flapping and wear in the wind.

If you do not plan to enjoy your tipi year-round, we do recommend removing the cover in the winter (poles can remain standing). Store it clean, dry, and away from rodents.
