1. The Little Owl Cabin at Mt. Rainier
Space Stats: 5 guests, 2 bedrooms, 4 beds, 1.5 baths
If you’re dreaming of a night in an enchanted forest, The Little Owl Cabin is about as close as you’ll ever get! The A-frame backs the breathtaking Mt. Rainier National Park. You can enjoy a view of the woods from the upstairs balcony, or even more enticingly, outside in the cedar soaking hot tub. Mid-century modern vibes radiate throughout the living room and kitchen, and string lights hang over the back deck providing just the right about of whimsy.
2. The Lodge at Ski Mountain
Space Stats: 4 guests, 2 bedrooms 1.5 baths
Just outside downtown Gatlinburg this cabin is located in the winding hills of the Smoky Mountains. Housed within a cabin community, it’s just one of many A-frames in the area. Rich wood walls and flannel print bedding provide a country lodge feel. The living room is wide open with exposed wooden beams. A loft bedroom upstairs with a private bath is the perfect backdrop for string lights. If that isn’t enough to win your cabin heart, the large outdoor deck with hot tub is sure to seal the deal.
3. Nostalgic River A-Frame
Space Stats: 4 guests, 2 bedrooms, 2 beds, 1 bath
This cabin was the chance to reclaim a piece of the owner's history and return to her origins by purchasing the A-frame cabin perched along the Sturgeon River’s banks. The interior of the cabin is a style I describe as Elevated Hygge. It is a masterful combination of coziness and sophistication. The wall of the cabin facing the river is made from a grid of glass panes, inviting the outdoors in and framing breathtaking vistas of the river. For A-frame lovers, this cabin is nothing short of a nostalgic dream come true.
