The Self-Sufficient Hunting Camp: how does it work?

As hunting season approaches, the enthusiasm of hunting enthusiasts soars. They imagine their perfect retreat: a cozy forest camp where modernity flirts with tradition. Such a retreat is a self-contained chalet nestled in the tranquility of nature, a place where the wood-burning stove warms and comforts after a long day in the woods. At Lëxi Chalet, we're dedicated to creating self-contained hunting camps that embody this rustic dream with a modern twist.

The soul of the chalet: the wood-burning stove

In the design of our self-contained chalets, the wood-burning stove plays a crucial role. It provides a reliable and robust source of heat, essential for cold nights in remote areas. Designed for ease of use and low maintenance, the wood stove is an indispensable asset to any hunting or forestry camp, adding to the overall functionality of the cottage while contributing to its warm atmosphere.

Energy autonomy: a high-performance hybrid system

To ensure complete self-sufficiency, our chalets combine the efficiency of solar panels with the reliability of propane and the tradition of the wood-burning stove. This hybrid system not only reduces the forest camp's energy footprint, but also guarantees comfort and complete energy independence. Solar power supplies modern necessities, while propane secures the operation of essential appliances, and wood provides comforting warmth.

Water management

Water management in a self-contained chalet is a fundamental aspect of comfort and practicality when staying in remote areas. Our cottages are equipped with systems designed for maximum autonomy, even outside traditional networks. We integrate solutions such as water tanks for all daily necessities. The cottages also include water heating infrastructures, essential for cooking, cleaning and, of course, enjoying a comforting shower after a long day of hunting or exploring.

Dry toilets: a water-saving solution

In a self-contained chalet, optimizing water use is of paramount importance, especially for toilets, which are a key point in water resource management. That's why we offer dry toilets as an efficient, environmentally-friendly solution. These facilities require no water to operate, making them ideal for remote sites where access to water may be limited. Dry toilets are a hygienic, hassle-free option, perfectly suited to cottages used as hunting or forestry camps, where sustainability and self-sufficiency are priorities.

Customization: Create Your Ideal Hunting Camp

We understand that every hunter has a unique vision of his or her ideal camp. That's why we offer a wide range of customization options. From the design of the structure to the selection of interior finishes, our customers are actively involved in creating their forest living space. The possibilities are endless, so that the forest camp reflects the personality and needs of its owner.

Anti-vermin screening: a must for the hunting camp

Protecting your cottage from wildlife intrusion is a crucial aspect, especially in remote hunting areas. To prepare for any eventuality, we incorporate an effective preventive measure: a sturdy anti-vermin wire mesh installed under the cottage structure. This wire mesh is designed to prevent small animals such as mice, rats, groundhogs and other pests from entering the cottage from below. By creating this barrier, we provide additional protection that maintains the integrity and cleanliness of the chalet. This preventive approach is particularly important for hunting and forestry camps, where proximity to nature increases the chances of visits from these small intruders. The pest-proof mesh is carefully installed, covering the entire underside of the cottage, and securely fastened to resist weathering and intrusion attempts.

Sustainability: Hunting Camps Built to Last

Using sustainable materials is another pillar of our philosophy. We choose weather- and pest-resistant treated woods, superior insulation and engineered wood exterior finishes designed to withstand the elements. Our hunting camps are built to withstand the seasons and the years.

Our commitment goes beyond simply building cottages. We offer a complete experience, from site selection to final delivery of the hunting camp. Our team accompanies each customer throughout the entire process, guaranteeing total satisfaction and unrivalled peace of mind.
