A 600 square foot, cedar-clad cabin, built sustainably off-grid, and winner of the 2019 AIA Ohio Honor Award for Architecture. Leave the world behind in this cozy retreat, perfect for a romantic weekend or extended artists getaway.

The space
The Hut is in a secluded area on a working cattle farm. The off-grid retreat was inspired by Scandinavian design and the ‘hygge’ mindset. The structure is sided with cedar shingles and sits amongst trees, atop a high bank overlooking a lake.

Our little Hut has a couple of extra perks not featured in the photos: a projector and screen so you can have your own movie night, and an outdoor firepit and chairs for warmer months.

Other things to note
This property is entirely off grid, meaning all of the systems were built by us, and are not serviced by a municipality or utilities company - they are serviced by us. For the care and longevity of these systems, there are certain house rules that we ask you to observe.

The water system isn’t filtered, you will need to bring water for drinking and cooking.

The electricity can support all functions of the house, but it is precious. Please only use what you need and make sure to turn everything off when you head outside.

The firebox has to be used according to the manufacturers instructions. Please refer to the instructional video in the House Manual if you plan on making a fire inside.

The thermostat is not for guest use. It’s part of a fail safe system to keep the Hut preserved during the coldest days of the year. Please only use the firebox to heat the space.

We kindly request shoes be removed while inside - the property is quite muddy and the bleached pine floors are soft and permeable.
