Kennebec Timber Framing pavilions combine classic craftsmanship with modern versatility. Each frame is hand-cut in Maine from locally sourced wood, using traditional joinery that showcases the natural strength and beauty of solid timber. Whether you’re creating an inviting outdoor living space, a lakeside retreat, or a custom event pavilion, our pavilions are designed to complement your space and your lifestyle.
The Kennebec Pavilion
Built in Maine
The Kennebec is our flagship timber frame pavilion — a timeless, structural ridge design that blends rugged craftsmanship with refined simplicity. Each frame is hand-cut right here in Maine using locally sourced timbers, ensuring strength, character, and a connection to the landscape that inspires it.
Built to stand the test of time, the Kennebec features traditional joinery and bold proportions that make it equally at home as a backyard gathering space, lakeside shelter, or outdoor kitchen.
Built Your Way
Every Kennebec pavilion can be ordered as a DIY kit, complete with labeled timbers and detailed assembly plans — perfect for those who want to be part of the build.
Prefer to let us handle it? Our experienced crew can deliver and raise your pavilion on-site for a seamless experience.

Why Kennebec Timber Framing
Craftsmanship. Experience. Integrity.
Since 1998, Kennebec Timber Framing has been building handcrafted structures that stand the test of time. With hundreds of frames raised across the lower 48, our work is a reflection of Maine’s deep tradition of honest craftsmanship and respect for the materials we use.
Every Kennebec frame begins with native Maine timber, carefully selected for strength, beauty, and sustainability. Our solar-powered shop allows us to craft each piece with precision while minimizing our environmental impact — proving that traditional methods and modern responsibility can work hand in hand.
From the first cut to the final peg, every detail matters. Our experienced team brings decades of combined knowledge to each project, ensuring your frame is not only structurally sound but a true work of art. At Kennebec, we believe that quality is built, not manufactured, and that the difference is in the details you can see — and the ones you can feel.
Custom Timber Frame Pavilions and Structures
In addition to our signature pavilion kits, we also design and craft custom timber frame structures of all kinds — from porches and outdoor kitchens to stages, event spaces, and one-of-a-kind builds. Whether you’re enhancing your home, business, or community space, we can tailor every detail to your vision, bringing the same craftsmanship and care to projects big or small.
