While the “tiny house movement” might be relatively new, the concept of small homes has been around since the beginning of time. This 100+-year-old cabin in Alberta is one of those historic tiny homes, originally built for fur trading in the area near Ghost Lake.
It’s been upgraded with electricity and modern plumbing, and a wood stove provides heat on snowy evenings. There’s a sink and toilet inside the cabin, and a shower and laundry at a nearby building. A kitchenette allows you to cook simple meals during your stay.
