As a person trained in Anthropology in another life I found the subject of your site engaging.

I am not a "designer" but I found your general layout appealing - if a bit barebones, but that seems somehow appropriate to the primitive content.

As a Grammar Geek I could not stand to read your content copy. It is full of typos, misspellings, awkward syntax, and many other language problems that make your site appear unprofessional.

Get an overeducated friend to edit it, or put up a Help Wanted post here or on other professional marketplaces (Elance, Guru.com, Craigslist come to mind).

BTW - one major mistake is in your title (and repeated throughout the site) - the word is "Etiquette" - and I'm not sure it has the appropriate meaning you are attempting to convey.

mscreashuns' post reminded me: on the blog there are no links back to the main site. Also typography in the blog is not consistent.

I admire your spirit and some corrections will make it a very nice site.

sounds like mscreashuns is willing to be your "overeducated friend"

I agree that some grammar and spelling corrections are really all this website needs. (And not to plug anything here, but I can help you out with that if you need it. I don't charge anything.)

I think the clean design works perfectly as the bulk of the appeal of your website is the photography anyway. The only thing I don't really understand is the "Blogs" link. All of the content there (in the default Wordpress template - ew) is the same as that on the website. Perhaps if I knew what your intention was with the blog I could understand its existence, but right now it seems a bit pointless to me.

Overall, great work! Feel free to contact me via PM if you want some proofreading help.

Nice easy to navigate site. Clean looking and well spaced out.

Perhaps make the navigation links a "little" bigger, sites often have their banner.logo area far to big, but yours is compact enough to allow for a larger easier to read text in the nav links.

Tha navigation layout is "ok", but I think it would be better if you could somehow seperately group "tipi" and "yurt" links.
With perhaps a sub-title for them both -
"Yurts.. Hire Yurt, Buy Yurt etc"
"Tipis.. Hire Tipi, Buy Tipi etc"

On "Hire a Yurt" page it reads this:

Apart from the fact that you may not have the space to erect a Yurt temporarily or permanently, affordability is another reason to hire a yurt rather than purchasing one outright.

If people didn't have the space to erect a Yurt, temparailry or permamently, then hiring one wouldn't change that fact.
You might want to reconsider wording that to state hiring one is a cheaper alternative if you only want one for a short time etc.
Or perhaps state STORAGE is not always possible so hiring is a good option.

Others have mentioned the grammer and wording could do some work. The site in general is nice, it's easy to read/view and navigate.

Obviously you have yet to write the pages for "Tipis" as they all have the "Lorem ipsum dolor sit ..." on them.

As already mentioned the text needs attention it seems to be comma rich in places apart from that the site looks ok it is an unusual topic best of luck with it.

one more idea:

commonly people spell "tipi" as "teepee" and you would not turn up in a search for that term

I am not suggesting that you change "tipi" but perhaps acknowledge the alternate spelling

I wonder if all the language mistkes have been corrected already, but I have found one article missing (i didn't scrutinize the site closely, just caught some glimpse of it).
I general I found the site rather well-build, with convenient content arrangement and user-friendliness.
