My son is 21 now and built himself a cabin like this when he was 19, only his has a bathroom. Paid for it all, and his Dad helped him build. He still lives there and really likes it. It's affordable, too.

Skirting does make it much warmer. I lived in a trailer home for a time that'd originally didn't have it, and when I added it, it made a HUGE difference. Only catch is you'll likely have animals tearing into it for the warmth, so I'd use some kind of metal version. Definitely want to use foam board as well to insulate it.

The fact you have trees all around you for firewood for the wood stove. The inside i love. Futon couch that pulls out to a bed. The coffee table your wife built herself fantastic!!! The gas stove as a backup. The kitchen. Using a hot water pot since you have snow and a creek or lake around in summer!!! Water goes through the sink into bucket smart!!! Stove runs on propane and not electricity. Love the loft!!! Extra bed for friend dog. Love you have a generator and an electrician for a friend!!!! Great that you and your wife enjoy cabin life with an outhouse, sauna, woodhouse and a toolshed!!!

Really looking forward to the next video you referenced, "how I built the cabin". Also a deep dive into the outbuildings would be great! the sauna construction, and dealing long term with the moisture generated. Even the outhouse, and the expected longevity before the need to relocate. I know from experience that there's more to it than simply digging a hole and building a structure over it. The melt is coming soon enough, and I'm sure that will bring even more un-expected content that we can look forward to.

We bought blueprints that include windows up high. I was thinking to leave those out. Thanks to your comment about lighting, I will use the windows. Also, I love your kitchen sink setup. We will also have a dry cabin, so this pot setup will be perfect! Our home will be a little bigger because we are going full-time off-grid. Yours is a great model though!
