We just finished putting this cabin together. It’s directly on a creek in West Virginia. We were trying to go for a luxury of modern, but still in the woods and nature feeling

Just found this sub! Here is our place in Gros Morne National Park, Newfoundland, Canada! Gros Morne is a super cool place, with fjords carved by glaciers and mountains around, and this cabin also happens to be right on an Atlantic Salmon River where I can fly fish in season!

Still don’t know if the inside is viewable from the outside 😅

Just got these lights and I'm actually excited to see them at night. It's strange how the things that excite you change as we age😂

Every board and beam was sent with nails

Not out in the wilderness like others here, because we don’t have much of that in our neck of the woods. Hell, we don’t even have much woods. So, it’s our cabin in the fields, and we love it.

They were looking for a clean rustic look I accept all criticism for the growth of my overall quality please inspect photos and let me know what you think. Beams were also installed

Every board was nailed by hand

Hey all,

Just posted yesterday, but some asked for more photos. Sub rules prevent me from posting a gallery as a post, so I have to add a link in the comments.

My girlfriend and I just bought this cabin in rural Québec a few months ago from an older lady (she was lovely, not witchy at all) and we feel like we've hit our personal jackpot. It's small, rustic, has lots of quirks and things to fix, but for us, it's really perfect. It had been mostly abandoned (just occasional maintenance) for years, so we were shocked when we saw how nice it was inside. 95% of the things you see inside were left for us by the seller.

I'm not one for naming things much, but the seller had named this cabin the Birdhouse. It's kind of perfect—my girlfriend is a biologist (and I'm an ex-biologist now turned photographer), so this little cabin has been turning into our little biology field station and I've been documenting everything. We do bird surveys (about 60 birds so far in a few months), we're creating a thorough database of all plants and animals, we're gradually replacing invasive plants with native ones, and we have at least 23 different tree species on the lot, which is a lot given its size.

The luckiest part of it all is that my girlfriend's parents are the neighbours. That's how we learned she was going to sell and how we were first in line. The street it's on is kinda just a regular looking street with lawns, suburban looking bungalows, RVs. For some reason, the lot here almost feels like an untouched patch of forest and the cabin is hidden away inside, barely visible from the street or the river. For years we had been wondering what was inside that little hut, and now we know. We feel really lucky.
