A cabin like that and the aroma of bacon cooking, must be heaven!
Would love an in-depth review of what all you did when you built. I’d love to have a small house like this.

I agree 100%! those stairs rock! and the design is one of it's own. Thank you. I'm ready to build a place of my own. So some of these ideas will be very helpful.

I'd love it but I want something elder friendly in my future, but as a 23 year old I'd love this!
16' by 20', wow, looks small from outside, but big from inside. Complete with standing height loft. Imagine spending winter there, under warm cozy cabin while blizzard is raging.
Love it!!! Bigger is not always better.✌🏻

@@mondavou9408 I just said it. Facts!
That's gorgeous. I could live in it year round. Just the right size. I grew up in an 11 room house with 5 garages and let me tell you, you spent your whole weekend just cleaning it. I'll never live in something that big again. This is all you NEED . (There's a difference between wanting and needing. Too many people must have their "wants". Not me. Just give me my needs).
SIR,YOU GOT A VERY COZY,WARM BEAUTIFUL HOME!! YOU ARE A BLESSED MAN!!
It's a perfect house cabin for Alaska, love it. Tons of character and perfect size for heating efficiency in winter. We built our offgrid log cabin started in mid 1980s from 100% trees we felled, debarked by hand, and prepped and built DIY entirely. We use propane lighting and cooking. Wood stove with big long chimney for heating the vaulted ceiling half of our cabin. Large windows and big deck. We love it. Thinking about buying land in Alaska and building cabin again.
Both the truck cabin and house cabin are perfect! Your living my dream!
The birdies were a nice surprise 👍 😊

Love the two loft dwellers💕
This is exactly the layout i want for my dream home!!
Me and the wife lived in one of these when we were first married. It didn’t have the loft like yours, it was just a bigger single story. We loved that place so much.
Oh my. Can you imagine being in Alaska and stepping into that gorgeous cabin and smelling backon cooking and hot ☕️ coffee?! Let's go now.
Wow. U got that huge 5g tower right out the guest bedroom window. That's an eye sore in your great view. The cabin is top notch regardless. Nice work Sir

Atta boy Timmy!!! You flew through that house like you were in a hurry or something 🤣
Outside of the white door everything is perfect.
Good job, wood burning stove for artic weather would be the only thing I would change. Well done!
Beautiful job! The vaulted ceiling gives it the feeling of being much bigger. Loved all the Tongue 'n Groove and the spiral staircase! Outstanding!
This guy is cool, what builder, his voice says it all, happiness. Thank you.
Wow, what a great home. I’ll bet it is so comfortable especially at the end of the day.
nice and bacon makes every thing better,
This would be absolute perfection for me and my 15 year old boy. Lovely house in a beautiful setting. What more could you want.
Im building a 16x24 currently, luckily i only need one bed which will be in the loft leaving all of the floor area for my living spaces!! This is a beaut, you did well with the spacing you had!!
Well laid out. Good use of space. Lots of windows, so plenty of light. Open feeling in the main room. Stand loft is nice. Plenty of storage in the mud room and garage. Deck looked like a fair sized outdoor space. Sweet spot.
Borat in the artic entry: "wow wow wee wow king in the castle, king in the castle"
I'm impressed, I love it, it'd be perfect, it works!
Alaska sounds absolutely dreamy! Imagine stepping into that cozy cabin after a long day in the crisp Alaskan air The smell of bacon cooking and hot coffee would be pure heaven! Let's book a trip ASAP! ✈️ ☕️
Gonna grow from our no build suv home to a tiny home on wheels one day, love the video
Woo-hoo!! I'm all caught up on your videos after watching from your very first one!! Beautiful house man!

Man like I say you are living your best life. I wish I had both of those the truck cabin and the house cabin
The birds are just chillin 😎
16 by 12 is bigger than my partner's house living room in London, in. house that many in London would envy. great design, all the right and views.
I had love birds the same color of yours, Cassie and Otis,, they were my really good babies I could walk all around the house with them on my shoulders … good on you love your cabin mine is not much bigger than yours and I love it!!!! It’s fun
Livin the dream! I wish I could talk my wife into this lifestyle
You’re living my dream. You even have birds. Although, I thinks I’d want some sort of bigger bird
Spiral staircase is awesome. Saves so much room.
That’s beautiful!! Love the birds :) Noice job!!!
That's a nice place!! Luv the birdies!! So cute! U have the life!!!❤😊
That is beautiful, man! I would love to have something like that out in the woods where it's dark enough to see the sky! I do love me some good stars!
Love 💕 ❤️ 💘 💖 Your lil house, Be Proud it's all any body needs.
My bedroom is 16x20. If you can’t build out, build up. Nice job, looks great.
You are such a talented guy. I have loved touring Alaska with you❤
Truly nothing like living in a structure that you built with your own hands.
Absolutely beautiful, compact perfection!
Really cute!!! All you need.
Dude, you’re cabin is amazing. Why would you ever leave?
All that space, and you have a washer and dryer combo! Lol
Beautiful wood work. VERY nice!!
Beautiful house, love your parakeets! ♥️🏡💯👍♥️
That mud room is a catastrophe bruh 😂 but once you venture past it 😍🤩🤗❤️
I like how you down play by saying how small or tiny the space is. Truth is that cabin is beautiful and perfect cozy size. Very nice. Beautiful views for sure! I could imagine sitting listening to the tweets upstairs, sipping coffee and looking out the window to such a spectacular view. All the while smelling bacon cooking. That's what dreams are made of.

I'm next door in the Yukon, checking out your cabin, getting ideas for my own build.
Love your house man. Perfect size. Great job.
You're a great craftsmanship buddy
I love your life/way of living…you’re living my dream ❤❤❤
Seeing this brought out my need to clean and organize. It's nice, btw!
So funny the progression from vankife to offgrid dwelling of some sort. Im purchasing land myself after a year of vanlife to convert a shed 🙂
We built an off grid 16x30 cabin in rural Quebec. It was awesome!! Love yours!!!!!

Start reading everything you can. Keep a notebook of titles and page #s of things that strike you with knowledge, ideas you might use, kinds of systems( solar, where, cooling, heating, electrical and solar, so you can remind yourself where you saw things. Use social media to contact and network with carpenters, electricians, tech guys mechanical/automotive guys. Volunteer to assist people living their dreams. Learn local codes, permits required etc. Start stockpiling materials, etc. Learn how to troubleshoot.. enjoy your dreams, work for it, then live your best life!!!😅😅😅

Looks really nice , bet that view looks awesome with the winter snow
This man after recording the cabin tour: ''Oh shuuut, my bacon!''
That's an awesome cabin dude perfect size.
Yeah I would just call it a house and stay in it love the idea of it being built on top of a garage
I’m in ANCHORAGE with my Lovebird. We drove up (relocated) from Seattle in July (2023). Noticed you also have a lovebird, Right on!!
That is cozy! In the winter with a snow blizzard but you inside w/ a nice wood fire goin on w/ your lil 2 cute birdies.
Been following you for years i have tiny home 20x20 with 14x12 kitchen laundry and cup board! Hardly uses any energy! Nice to see your home! Great job!!
When you opened the bacon pan I was sold.
You designed and built that... very nice.
...nice, can't go wrong with a 16' x 20 ' I lived in a 12' x 16' in Fox Alaska, I didn't build, but it worked...🌺😊💕
Nice, that's all I need
Awesome 😎👍 ! You built it well, love the creativity of it being two-story. Love your Tweety Birds to. As Tony The Tiger would say; It's GREAT !
THIS. Living life at its best! Who needs more?! 🌿💙
That's all anyone needs it's the perfect size
