Obviously it’s tough knowing none of us will be going on vacation for a bit, but we can still daydream, right? The Agua Norte Cabin (@auganorteme on Instagram) has to make it on your bucket list. This 16’x’20’ spot sits just 4 miles from Grand Marias, Minnesota with absolutely breathtaking views of Lake Superior.

The owners of the cabin logged, sawed and treated the white pine lumber themselves, and it includes a magical loft bedroom with a giant skylight perfect for star-gazing. Did I mention this cabin has a sauna?

Tiny homes come in all shapes and sizes, but sometimes the best way to describe one is “cute.” This is a tiny and adorable cottage in the Asheville Forest.

Outside, you’ll notice a small rectangular home with light green clapboards. Two windows flank the tan front door that hides beneath a dormer on the front porch area. Off to the side of the home is a fenced-in deck for outdoor eating and relaxing. The house sits among the trees as a cozy retreat from the world.

When you go inside, you’ll find the quaint kitchen with open-face cabinets, a small stove with an oven and a full-sized microwave, fridge, and dishwasher. A small dinette sits in the middle of the hardwood floors. The living space includes two comfortable chairs for relaxing and the bathroom is fully equipped with a tub/shower, toilet, and washer and dryer. The master bedroom has the same beautiful hardwood floors and a large bed.

This is a tiny cottage in Portland, Oregon with a fun, contemporary shape and feel.

You can’t help but notice the bright purple clapboards that encapsulate the house. A slanted, shed-style roof gives the home a unique roof line, and the large front windows provide plenty of natural light. The beautiful wooden deck gives you extra living space outdoors.

When you go inside, you’ll find knotty pine floors and ceilings with a large paneled accent wall in the living space. A bright blue sectional couch sits in the living room and the L-shaped kitchen lies in the opposite corner. It has open shelving for plates, dishes, and food as well as an oven, dishwasher, full fridge and freezer, and microwave. On the other side of the house is the bedroom with a queen bed and more sitting chairs. The bathroom even has a cool claw-foot tub where you can soak after a long day of travel and/or exploration!
