Secluded off-grid cabin

We are Jim and Lisa. It took us over ten years to build the cabin. We did most of the work ourselves buying materials and equipment as the budget allowed. The idea was always simple living, independence from the grid, and affordability. The defining ethic was always: "this is camping!" We often get asked: when are you going to get AC or city water? Our answer is "never." So our guests are those who want peace and quiet, and who want to experience the reality of limited resource usage: solar-powered electricity, rainwater, wood heat. Yes we do use propane gas from a tank to run the refrigerator, but it uses only a tiny amount. The propane kitchen stove is built for off-grid use and uses a 9-volt battery for ignition. The commode flushes with rainwater. After some time at the cabin, when you get back to civilization, you really have a feeling for the vast resources we use on the grid. So if you are up for it, we'd love to have you out for a stay. Everyone says they wish they could stay for a week. Come out and vanish for a while.

Quiet. Private. In the forest. Natural unspoiled setting.
