Built different.
Built to last.
When it comes to building a better covered wagon, it’s the details that make the difference. From our proprietary Bonnetgard™ Cover System and solid wood doors to the vented en suite bathroom and climate control integration, each feature is built to support your guests and protect your investment. This is a design built not just for beauty, but for everyday performance — season after season.
The fabric cover is the heart of any covered wagon — and ours is built to outperform the rest. PlainsCraft wagons feature a synthetic marine grade outer fabric engineered to resist mold, mildew, rot, moisture, and UV damage, while minimizing condensation.
Our proprietary Bonnetgard™ Cover System is a five-layer solution essential for lasting performance and guest comfort. It combines weather resistance, noise reduction, and temperature control in a single integrated system.
PlainsCraft was the first to bring a solid wood entry door and full end wall system to the covered wagon market — raising the bar for security, insulation, and guest peace of mind. Every door is built custom in-house and framed in metal to eliminate issues with seasonal expansion or shrinkage.
The result is a door that locks securely, insulates effectively, and delivers the kind of privacy and safety that a zipper door or canvas end wall simply cannot match.
PlainsCraft revolutionized the glamping industry with the first covered wagon featuring an en suite bathroom — and we’ve perfected it through thoughtful design and real-world testing across hundreds of installations.
Each Pioneer Elite Wagon includes a full-sized toilet, shower, and sink with hot water, fully encapsulated within the wagon using waterproof materials and no canvas. The bathroom is independently ventilated to direct moisture and odors outside, ensuring a clean and dry environment guests return for.
No covered wagon is complete without the iconic wooden wheels that once symbolized adventure and resilience. PlainsCraft preserves that legacy by partnering with skilled Amish wheelwrights in Ohio who handcraft each wheel from premium hardwood for long-term durability and visual impact.
These wheels aren’t decorative — they’re a lasting investment in authenticity and guest experience. The kind of detail that guests photograph and remember.
Our exterior porch and stair system is engineered to meet commercial code standards for strength, safety, and everyday functionality. Built at a comfortable angle for easier access and designed for guests of all ages.
Each PlainsCraft wagon begins with hand-selected, premium-grade lumber chosen to meet strict durability standards. Every board goes through a three-coat sealing and staining process — engineered for lasting performance in outdoor hospitality environments.
Every metal component of a PlainsCraft wagon is treated with an industrial-grade powder-coat layer — designed to seal and protect against long-term outdoor exposure. A weatherproof, rust-resistant barrier that stands up to rain, sun, and seasonal wear without chipping or scraping.
Not only does it deliver low-maintenance durability, it enhances the wagon’s pioneer-era aesthetic with a clean, rustic finish that holds up as well as it looks.
At PlainsCraft, we offer more than a well-built wagon. With an interior designer on staff, we can help you create a fully designed guest experience — from a few finishing touches to a complete interior concept tailored to your brand, your property, and your guests.
