A look at the 600 square foot small cabin house on the farm. The little get away cabin may be small in size, but it's big in living space!

We all want to own a private space that we can call ours. A place we can call home, a sanctuary where we can find both peace and comfort at the same time. However, with the world’s current situation, not everyone can afford to buy their own property. Thankfully, a family-owned and operated company that’s...

As promised, I am here to share some summer pictures of our family's cabin in the Adirondack Mountains of Upstate NY. This cabin has been in my husband's family since 1984, when his parents bought it with another couple. We purchased it from them last year and have been working on it slowly to make it a place for our children to enjoy with us for many many years to come. I think you can see why we decided to name our cabin Camp Lucky Dog from the picture below! The front porch is always a favorite spot to hang out. Billy recently asked me if I wanted to put a fresh coat of paint on the Adirondack style love seat that has been sitting on the porch since I came here and I said, NO! I love the chippy look of this. I love that it shows the history and all that vintage goodness. And I realized that that's my approach to everything about this cabin. Nothing polished, just a well loved place full of memories. The green pine tree shutters are a new addition to the cabin this year. Billy built them himself and I love how much personality they add. We plan to add a window box to that upper window but we are waiting until we get a fresh coat of brown paint on in the next few weeks before we do that. We also have plans to widen those steps so the door is more centered and update the railing but we are holding off on that until the price of lumber comes back down to a somewhat reasonable price. We added in an island of plants and flowers and a birch tree in memory of my dad. Little did we know when we planted that tree this spring that we would also be saying goodbye to another beloved parent in a few short weeks. Billy lost his mom this May and it's been a profound loss for us all, but especially him. She chose this house because she always wanted a front porch and spent many hours watching the hummingbirds on this porch. I know we will always feel her presence strongly here. We tend to throw ourselves in a project when life gets hard, I guess it's a coping mechanism that has become a go-to of ours through the years. And so we decided to add a new island to the kitchen at the cabin. We had previously had a small, moveable island but it just didn't give us a big enough space to prepare food or a place to gather when the whole family is here. I lamented for weeks over just how big to make it so it didn't overpower the room yet made better use of the space. We gained lots of storage and now our garbage pails are built into the island. I'm very happy with how it turned out and the first weekend that I saw all of our boys and their girlfriends gathered around it, I knew we made the right decision in adding it. The next purchase we are saving up for is a new range. In the meantime, it's fun to shop for one. We are considering either a Z-Line or Ilve 36 inch range in either white or red. We will switch over to a dual fuel range at that point because we prefer cooking on a gas stovetop. We're also enjoying the banquette seating we added last year to the eating area. The advantage of working on a house that we have lived in for years is that we knew which areas needed improvement. Last weekend, this cabin was full of family and friends and we added a leaf to this table to gather as many people around it as we could fit. There's not much else in life that makes me happier. There is a wide hallway that connects the kitchen area to the the family room. The mudroom is a very hard working space in this cabin. It's hard to remember what this corner of the family room looked like before we added this desk and shelves. Finally, our latest project was the addition of this porch swing to the back porch. It's the perfect spot to read or take an afternoon nap. I can't wait to see what it looks like once the leaves begin to change colors in fall. Thanks for stopping by today. It's hard to believe that we only have a few more weeks of summer but I am very much looking forward to fall at the cabin too. One last thing, my husband started an Instagram account where he shares my pictures of the cabin that never make it to my main Instagram page. We'd love to have you follow along at Camp Lucky Dog if you'd like to see more of our projects and adventures at the cabin.

Christina Valencia and Kele Dobrinski are no strangers to a challenge. The Sacramento-based designers of Colossus Mfg have turned countless tired homes into beautiful, modern stunners (including this one right here) — often times with limits like shoddy floor plans and outdated structures stacked against her.Their latest project, a four-bedroom and four-and-a-half bath A-frame tucked in a quiet Tahoe enclave presented plenty of pivots along the way. But, fast-forward eight months from when they started on it and the reinvented space captures the essence of a mountain getaway (coziness with a splash of camp) in the best way possible."We found a rundown, unloved A-frame cabin that hadn’t been updated in decades, it was very dark and fairly non-functional in its original state," Valencia shares with Lonny. "Yet we saw tons of potential for a full overhaul, and the home is located in an insanely gorgeous, tucked-away part of Tahoe near Donner Summit within the lakeside community of Serene Lakes." The project was a major overhaul of the 2,800 square-foot home. Some of the work included restructuring the top floor by adding two main bedrooms with attached bathrooms and an incredible bunk-bed room (which as Valencia puts it, "is perfectly equipped for flashlight storytelling") with a half bath. The original fireplace was taken out and the basement revamped into one epic "kids' cave."And, since we all could use a little escape these days (even if it's just virtual!), the Van Norden Lodge is a very social distance-friendly way to switch up your scene this winter.

Peek inside a log cabin with rustic, up-north flair
Guys! I guess I just took a month of from the blog, whoopsiee. Normally I would feel guilty about that sort of thing, but I don’t, cause I had good reason. I shared with you guys that we were about to buy a cabin two hours from MPLS (aka the Twin Cities) in the heart of western Wisconsin (aka West Wisco). The weeks leading up to the closing were intense to say the least. Emotions were high, and Jeff and I were trying our hardest to keep cool and calm. I think we did a pretty good job of that, but purchasing property of any kind is always such a high stress situation. I was also hoarding a bunch of stuff to bring up to the cabin and making final arrangements. So many little details had to be ironed out, there was just no time for blogging. Besides just moving a bunch of our stuff a long distance, there was tons of work to get at. Let’s start with the furniture. The place came fully furnished, it had been a rental for the last 10 years or so years, and the furniture was just a part of the deal. Unfortunately we had no use for about 3/4 of what we had inherited and it needed to be moved out before we could move in. We had a bunch of days of good weather, and we moved every piece of furniture out into the driveway before we then donated what we could and brought the remainder to the dump. In a mad rush we tore up the carpet which had been harboring a majority of that highly disgusting musty cabin smell. You know that stink that’s so abrasive that it makes you seriously regret your decision for a minute or two? We had the carpet up in no time we estimate around an hour, and were more than happily surprised by the condition of the wood floors underneath. We knew that there were wood floors, but we had no idea what was in store for us as far as their condition goes. We lucked out big time, all these floors need is a good cleaning (still needs to be done) and they will be good to go. What a find! Between pulling up staples we built a sofa, cleaned, built 2 sets of bunk beds, wrestled mattresses, replaced bedding, sweated our […]
