50 Of The Most Beautiful Cabins Around The World That Are Perfect For Running Away From Everyday Problems
No internet. No neighbors. Just miles and miles of trees, hills, and lakes. Sounds so relaxing, doesn't it? We all sometimes need to unwind, and nature can provide the perfect environment for it. Peaceful yet engaging. All you need is a place to sleep. Sure, a tent might do but if you own a patch of land, why not put a cabin on it?
If you're up for the challenge or simply want to drool at gorgeous places from around the world, then this subreddit is what you need. Created in 2012, this online community unites 321k people, and has plenty of dreamy woodsy abodes for every taste; big or small, luxurious or simple, it's there.
Here are some of the all-time most-upvoted ones.

I’ve Wanted To Build A Cottage In The Woods For Years, And Today My Dream Was Finally Met
Erin B 2 years ago
This is a resort in Crowsnest Pass, Alberta Canada. Google "charmed resorts" and you will see more of these beautiful cabins!
Load More Replies...Recently, cabins have been increasingly more important to people. Take Getaway for example. It's a mini-vacation concept that has grown in the past six years from a few tiny rental cabins outside of Boston to 581 custom-built cabins sprinkled across 15 locations in the United States. And over the past year, Getaway's cabins have been nearly 100% occupied.
"We created a business that is socially distant for a different reason, which is to give people the time and space to disconnect and recharge," Jon Staff, Getaway's founder and CEO, told CNN Travel. "But the fact of the matter is, when we picked our heads up from the craziness [of locking down] it was like, 'oh look, our business is cabins in the woods, 100 to 250 feet apart from any other cabin in the woods, there's no check-in desk, there's no bar, there's no restaurant, there's no group fire pit.'"
There's nothing you don't need.

It is like Baba Yaga's "walking house", with the trees looking sort of like legs. Also just the creepy old stone cottage vibe
Load More Replies...
Unlike at hotels, where operators are "agnostic" about how guests spend their time, Staff said, "we care very much about how you spend your time, and hopefully it's doing nothing". Or getting back in touch with your partner or your kids, staring into the campfire, or simply hiking.
"Getaway has always been about disconnecting from technology and disconnecting from being scheduled and disconnecting from commitments that are scheduled at least by the hour and maybe by the 15 minutes," Staff said.
Judging by pics, so are the cabins featured in this subreddit.

Cabin Located On A Beach In Northern Norway
A B C 4 years ago
Uh, I've seen that one, it was featured in EOFT a couple of years ago. It was built by two surfers who think that Norway's waves IN FEBRUARY are the best ever, so they went there, built the cabin from driftwood and lived in it for a couple of weeks, each day deciding if they'd go out surfing or collect driftwood for their campfire. Also, they collected washed up garbage, I think it was 5 tons (yes, five friggin' metric tons) over the course of some weeks. The garbage disposal service they collaborated with had to get a helicopter to collect it due to it being so remote and so much. It was an awesome feature.

No one around to protect your privacy from and at night the forest is dark enough so you don't need to shade your windows to fall asleep. I wouldn't use any curtains either as this way it's so much closer to nature and you might see some nice animals before you fall asleep :)

Why all the down votes to a reasonable question by Thomas? The definition of bonfire suggests it's open air but not contained, 'loose' piles of logs, gathered autumn leaves, campfires, etc. Also sometimes celebratory - Guy Fawkes etc. Maybe fire pit fires are just 'fire'?

Fire Watch Cabin
Sunshine Sunshine 4 years ago (edited)
Not sure if I don't understand your comment or you don't understand the picture. Fire watch cabins are always built in woody surroundings where a fire might occur giving the watchers a chance to inform the proper respondents in time. Over the years a number have been decommissioned and possibly repurposed. I assume the above is an example of a repurposed cabin.
