The Shasta: A Cabin-Style Tiny House with a Main-Floor Bedroom by Spindrift Homes

The Shasta is the most cabin-like model from Spindrift Homes in Bend, Oregon, and it is built for people who want a tiny house that actually lives like a small home. At 26 feet long and a full 10 feet wide, it skips the climb-up loft as the main bedroom in favor of a real main-floor bedroom, then adds the things that make a cabin feel like a cabin: cedar siding, a dormer roof, a wood-burning stove, two sets of French doors, and a proper soaking tub. A guest loft sits above for visitors. It is offered fully furnished for $135,000. Here is the full tour.

Cabin Charm, Modern Comfort

Step through the French doors and the Shasta feels immediately warm. Natural cedar and hemlock wood trim frame white shiplap walls, a vaulted ceiling with an exposed beam draws the eye up, and a wall of windows, including a graceful arched window, fills the home with light. A white Classic refrigerator and a light-oak staircase anchor one side, the kitchen runs along the other, and the whole space reads as a bright, connected cabin rather than a cramped trailer.

A Living Room Built Around a Wood Stove

The living area is the heart of the Shasta. A real wood-burning stove tucks into the corner for off-grid heat and serious cabin atmosphere, paired with a built-in storage daybed dressed in blue cushions and floral pillows. The arched window above and the big windows alongside make it the kind of spot you settle into with a book and do not leave, and the curved bottom steps of the oak staircase add a soft, custom touch.

The Kitchen

The kitchen makes the most of the extra width with a butcher block peninsula that includes a fold-up extension for more counter or dining space. A propane gas range with a hood, a deep farmhouse sink, custom soft-close cabinetry, and open shelving all sit against a beautiful patterned tile backsplash. Just beyond, a barn door slides open to the main-floor bedroom.

A Storage Staircase and Guest Loft

The oak staircase is a piece of furniture in its own right, with cubbies and soft-close cabinets built into every inch beneath it and the refrigerator tucked neatly alongside. It leads up to a guest loft edged with an oak guardrail, an open, airy perch for visitors that looks down over the kitchen and living space below.

A Main-Floor Bedroom

This is the Shasta’s signature feature. Rather than making you climb a ladder to bed, it puts a real bedroom on the main floor, with a queen bed framed by integrated nightstands, storage cubbies, and book-and-plant shelves. A clerestory window and wall sconces make it feel calm and cabin-like, and a private set of French doors opens the room right out to the landscape.

A Bathroom With a Real Soaking Tub

The bathroom is a genuine surprise at this size. A wood vanity with a vessel sink and an illuminated mirror sits over deep blue tile flooring, and the star is a full soaking tub with a shower combo wrapped in gorgeous blue-and-white patterned tile. There is even a window in the surround, and Spindrift offers a flush or composting toilet depending on how you plan to live.

What Makes the Shasta Special

  • A real main-floor bedroom. No ladder, no climbing into a loft to sleep, just a proper bedroom on the ground floor with the loft saved for guests.
  • It feels like a cabin. Cedar siding, a dormer roof, exposed beams, and a wood-burning stove give it a warmth most tiny houses cannot match.
  • An actual soaking tub. A full tub-and-shower combo wrapped in custom tile is a rare luxury at 26 feet.
  • The extra width earns its keep. Ten feet makes room for a peninsula kitchen, a real bedroom, and a true bathroom all at once.
  • Sustainable and custom. Like every Spindrift build, it uses nontoxic, largely reclaimed materials, plants 104 trees per home, and can be tailored to your finishes.
