Cozy and Quiet Tiny Cottage on a Farm Surrounded by Mountains

Escape the Ordinary with a Cozy Cabin Retreat

When you're looking for a vacation to get away from it all sometimes a hotel just won't cut it. That's when you head to a cozy self-contained cabin like this one on a 5-acre farm close to Pemberton, British Columbia. The tiny cottage is perfect for a weekend getaway or a longer retreat if needed. It has everything you'd need to be comfortable, yet it has that rustic cabin appeal which is perfect for disconnecting from the busy, fast-paced world. Surrounded by mountains, there's hardly anywhere better to go for some rest and relaxation. The little cottage is sided with red wood siding and surrounded by a little garden with a deck on one side as well. Inside, the small cottage is cozy and warm with plywood lining the walls creating that cozy wood cabin feel. They also installed hardwood floors in the living room and tile in the dining area. In the front of the home is a nice little living room with a small TV for watching movies. The space is about 200 square feet with a small loft, so it's perfect for 2 people but no more than 4 people. There is a futon sofa in the living room to sleep more guests, but the main sleeping area is in the loft with a queen sized bed. It would be okay for a family with one or two small children, but probably no more than two adults would be comfortable in this space. In the main living area is the kitchenette as well which has an apartment sized fridge, a toaster oven and a hot plate. There is also a BBQ out on the deck as well. The indoor bathroom has a shower, a sink and a flush toilet, so for those who don't like having to use the outhouse when you're staying at a cabin, this would be perfect.

Smart Space Utilization for Maximum Comfort

It's also nice to see the small cottage and how they make great use of the space they have. There is lots of storage placed high up which is great for books and other objects. There is also storage above the kitchen cabinets as well which is nice. Then, just beyond the kitchenette is a little dining area for two people and a built-in bench seat to sit by the window and read. Then, a ladder can be pulled down from the ceiling to access the loft sleeping space up above. The loft space is quite small though, so if people are not into sleeping in smaller spaces, there is also the day bed on the main floor which can be slept in as well. Plus the little window in the loft helps to make it feel more spacious while providing some nice fresh air and views.

Disconnect and Reconnect with Nature

There is no cell phone service in the area, but there is access to Wifi, but it's via satellite, so it's not always the most reliable internet either. Great for those who really want to disconnect, but probably not great for people who are working while staying there. The property itself is gorgeous with weeping willow trees and lots of lush grass and greenery. It's also close to different lakes, bicycle trails, hiking trails and more. The property is shared with the owners and other guests since they have another home that's available to rent out as well. A small cottage like this would be the perfect size for anyone to build and use as a recreational cabin. Or, to use as they have as a rental property on their land since people are always looking for new and fun vacation ideas like this instead of a typical stay at a hotel.
