This a micro A-frame cabin you can rent in Spain.

Outside, you’ll notice a pine paneled house sitting in a garden with a little red table and chair set. Between a couple trees off to the side of the house hangs a hammock for an outdoor sleeping experience.

When you go inside, you’ll find the same pine paneling and one full-size bed. If you wanted to, you can rent this micro cabin in Spain for only $18 a night. Please enjoy, learn more, and re-share below. Thank you!

It’s been a while since I’ve gotten to share an amazing Tiny A-frame Cabin like this one in the Redwoods of Cazadero, California.

I absolutely love A-frame cabins (especially this one). This cabin isn’t exactly tiny and I don’t know the exact dimensions but it’s definitely pretty small. And it’s just cool, right?

I think it’d be awesome to live in this little cabin. And you can still enjoy many of the benefits of a tiny house with a cabin of this size because it’s still really small. So take the virtual tour below and let me know what you think about it in the comments. Thank you!

I’ve been wanting to share these little A-frame cabins with you on the sunshine coast of British Columbia for quite a while now.

They’re submitted anonymously from one of our wonderful readers and are on a property with a total of 5 A-frame cabins.

The one I’m showing you here has recently been renovated with a little bit of paint. Soon, the kitchen will be modernized.

And since the owner/dweller is getting a little bit too old for stairs, they’re planning on building an extension for a bedroom so they don’t have to crawl into bed anymore using a ladder. I hope you enjoy this small A-frame cabin and that it inspires you towards the right size home for you. As always, feel free to re-share using the share buttons below if you want to and share your thoughts about it in the comments too.

Had to show you Deek’s recent $1200 DIY A-frame micro cabin that transforms. I think it’s an amazing design and he had Joe Everson of Tiny Happy Homes (formerly Tennessee Tiny Homes) build it for him.

Also soon if you’re interested you’ll be able to get the design directly from Deek over at his siteRelaxShacks.com. The coolest part about this A-frame cabin is that it’s really tiny, cheap to build, but it also transforms (in good weather).

Here’s a simple and relatively tiny A-frame cabin in the woods. It was built in 1968 in the woods of Dorrington, California.

Once you go inside you’ll see it has a classic firewood stove made out of cast iron. A simple staircase system takes you upstairs to the bedroom and loft hangout with balcony.

This is a Reader Submitted Guest Post – Share Your Small House Story Too

Hi Alex,

My partner and I bought this small house as a second home in early 2012, as a retreat from our lives in the “biggish” city of Durham, NC.

The house, located in Blowing Rock, NC (just 3 hours from our primary home) was built as part of a “future” 21 unit vacation rental community.
