This is the best small cabin setup I have seen on youtube so far and proof that you do'nt have to live' primitive.Very well thought out,and taking advantage of all the technology available today that enables a person to live comfortably.The workmanship in the contruction is also excellent.Very well done,an excellent job.

I've been a builder for many years and have seen quite a fair bit of sheds. The plans in ryan's package kzread.infoUgkxB7IXYxLzb_Ichhe45zM3Im5xfEiSp9vB have some of the nicest looking sheds i've seen in a while.

Great job! I live this way in rural Western Pennsylvania. One tip to avoid building codes and regulations: buy the land and build on it with cash and don't tell anyone it is your permanent dwelling. Don't ask. Don't tell.

The septic test holes are complete & permit for septic is approved and on file at county office. A nice driveway has been put in and around nice big tree. I need the north and west property fence put in. So I am working to complete the vision of a 16 x 24 ft cabin into which to live. So Cheryl, don,t give up...i am here to encourage you to move forward to a place in the woods or just outside of a town...my place is a 7 miles ride from Town...I just want to encourage you to keep moving forward for that cabin...it is attainable..My water tank will be a 2600 gal underground tank for 1100 dollars.. just remember, one step at a time..

Great cabin. Even better property! We used a very similar shower setup on a property my brother owned in northern Minnesota. Spent a lot of weekends there and having a hot shower certainly made things more comfortable.

Awesome, simple, and all the comforts a simple life needs! Bravo!

Nice little set up. I lived that way in Alaska for a few years. I had a bigger cabin but hauled water and heated with wood. I just used a bucket of warm water and a margarine tub for my shower scoop and pour. Soap down and rinse. It’s amazing how little water a person needs to bath when you haul water😊 There is a book about Dick Proenneke’s cabin in Alaska. One Man’s Wilderness.

Your down-to-earth, honest approach is so refreshing. I enjoyed your cabin tour very much. I especially liked how you set up the shower. A person would have to be able to lift 17 lbs. of water overhead to make it work (no shoulder/rotator cuff problems), but otherwise, it seems like a simple, efficient set up. I was impressed by the Jotul's ability to keep the cabin warm in subzero weather. I grew up in a home with a Jotul. I loved that little stove.

I do not know the perfect solution for the shower if you have worked hard all youre life lifting that 5 gallon jug will not get it see rotator cups? or cuffs? RV water pumps is probably the answer that being said it could also run the kitchen sink faucet while you are at it and a on demand water heater also on propane as the man said youre not running that 24 7 for 1 guy to shower and do a couple dishes so 20 or so ft of sched 40 PVC running into that French drain he described should work out if you own the property make it 40 ft long that finished flooring impressed me mine would have been 3/4 t &g subfloor !! again the finished product is nice carry on and act accordingly

Absolutely is a must for escaping this twisted world we live in !

Projector to 42" screen for work, movies etc. It projects anything from my phone. 2 beds. And I even have a motor that makes it so I can drive my cabin all over. It's called a Toyota Dolphin. It was always my dream growing up. Now it's my home.
