We are cabin people forever in our hearts, but now in real life too! We are under contract on a small A-frame-ish cabin nestled in a forest that sits above a sparkling lake. If you have ever spent any time around this blog you know I talk about cabins and cabin vibes a lot. For us, not only are cabins magical little getaway places, but they are beloved, sentimental spaces that on an emotional level DO NOT compare to any other type of man-made structure. I’m sure it sounds hippie-dippie, but these little spaces have become the places where life seems to exist on a more supernatural, chill plane to us. We wanted to have our OWN tiny piece of The Lake. I’ve had a casual Zillow search tuned in for cabins in Western Wisconsin for probably three years now. It was always a someday dream that seemed on the edge of too hard to achieve. Earlier this year we decided that maybe it was time to do an experiment. We slimmed down the budget and started living the day-to-day like we had two mortgages, socking away the money we saved. Too our surprise, we could manage it with a lot more thoughtful spending. This re-evaluation of the budget came at the same time that both Jeff and I began to unplug more often. Mornings before the day starts are spent phoneless, listening to records and chatting about our days before jumping into work. Nights are free of the random screen-thumbing behavior that we’ve been gotten so good at. E-mails can wait. Being in the present has put so much in focus for both of us and hanging with our kids. After lots of serious consideration it came down to our old philosophical friend: YOLO. Having a cabin is something that we’ve wanted so bad, and now have the opportunity to make it happen. We know how to slow down and enjoy what’s happening right in front of us, right now! Could we wait a few years and have a bigger down payment? Prolly. Could we just keep renting cabins and save ourselves the stress? Yeah. BUT, We are cabin people, in our hearts, this is something we’ve dreamed of doing forever. So, just do it already! Then one day in the midst of all this Zen Yolo-gizing, a red A-frame cabin showed up in my feed, and the hunt […]

We’re not sure what it is about fall, but as soon as it hits, this escapism mechanism in our brains just starts screaming, “get me to a cozy cabin!” And as soon as that little alarm goes off, we’re off the races exploring tiny houses, log cabins, cozy cottages and A-frame getaways of every location, size and style. But don’t worry. We won’t keep all the goods to ourselves. Here’s a round-up of all the cushy, comfy, cozy spots we love this year, many that were suggested directly by you, our readers.
