Rent A Tiny House Near Beach

Tiny Rental House In WA

Here is another tiny house for rent in Washington. This one has a five-star rating from previous guests and quite a lot to offer anyone that wants to vacation and try out a small house.

We’ll start with the indoor necessities.

It has:

• A kitchen with a mini fridge, a cooktop, a microwave, a French press coffee maker, and all the cookware that you’ll need.
• One bedroom in the loft that is accessed by a ladder. There is a full-size bed. The best part of the sleeping area is that is a strategically placed skylight that is perfect for stargazing.
• One bathroom with a composting toilet and a shower.
• There is a mini gas heater for any chilly days or nights.
• If you bring your laptop or tablet, wireless internet is available.

From the outside:

• The house is nestled in a rural setting. That means it’s quiet, with only the beautiful and soothing sounds of nature for your enjoyment.
• The beach is a short walk away. You’ll take a trail, down a bluff, and you are on the beach.
• The home is perched on a hill and is surrounded by a lush garden of fir and fruit trees. You can catch a glimpse of Puget-Sound.
• There are also two fire pits that can be used by guests. There is one located near the house; the other is on the beach.

Pets are allowed, but you must get pre-approval from the owner. There is an additional $10 per night, per pet.

The surrounding areas:

• Downtown Olympia is approximately 15 minutes by car where you’ll find artsy type shops. The town also has coffee shops, restaurants, and grocery stores.
• Tolmie State Park is not far away. The park has many walking trails and kayaking and canoeing.

The design of this tiny house is from Tumbleweed. Specifically, the Cypress design. You can check out the layout here.

Yurt In WA For Rent

Have you ever had the opportunity to stay in a yurt?

I’ve seen them in some campsites we’ve visited. I’ve taken a peek inside. They look comfy and cozy and are quite popular during the warmer months of the year.

They are perfect for someone (or a family) that is in between tent camping and staying in a trailer. They usually have a bed, a kitchenette, and a living area. Some of them have electricity.

The following is a yurt for rent in White Salmon, WA.

The beauty of it is that it is nestled among pine and oak woods.

It’s also close to the small town for your dining and shopping enjoyment.

Previous guests have given it a 5-star rating that is always a good thing to note when looking for a vacation rental.

Inside the yurt.

A yurt is usually one big room that has all the necessities you’ll need for your stay.

There is a bed. It doesn’t say whether it is a double, queen, or king size.

There is a kitchenette with a counter, a small fridge, sink, hot plate, and microwave.

That means there is electricity too so you’ll have lights when needed.

The dining area has a table and chairs.

The common area has a wood stove for chilly days and nights, a lounge chair and a futon that can accommodate two people for sleeping.

In the barn:

There is a barn close to the yurt. The barn is where you will find a few more amenities that aren’t available in the yurt.

There is a bathroom, but it doesn’t say whether there is a shower or if there is a tub.

Wireless internet is only available in the barn.

Two extra bedrooms, one big enough to have a comfortable seating area.

Outside the yurt:

There is a deck that overlooks gorgeous views of the woods.

And a washer and dryer available to guests. They are located in the main house.

It has everything needed for a vacation. It may not be all in one building, but nothing is far away.

Yurts have been around for a very long time and only recently becoming a popular vacation option.

Tiny Houses On TV Update

Second Tiny House Show

A few days ago, I watched a second tiny house show on TV. This is the first show of the kind that is airing in my area. I know some of you may have had access to these types of show for awhile now, but this is a first for me and I’m loving the show.

The second show featured a young lady preparing to go to college. Instead of living in residence, she chose to build herself a tiny house. Her goal was for it to cost $10,000. She came close. The final tally, including furniture and appliances, came to a little over $12,000.

Would you like to take a look at some tiny house plans and designs? Click here.

She built it over a 4 to 6 month period with the help of friends and family. Much of the construction was recycled materials.

This was a smart move on her part. By building it herself, she saved lots of money. She won’t have the added expense of the cost of college housing. And she’s already got a great head-start on owning her own home.

Here’s the link if you would like to read more about the episodes.

She’s not the first person to come to the realization that this will save her money now and in the future. It’s a very mature move for someone that is in her early 20’s.

Tiny houses are popping up all over the place. People are living in them for all kinds of reasons but mostly to save money and live a better, healthier life.

These television shows are helping to get the word out and propelling it even further.

Tiny Houses On TV

Tiny House TV Show

Last Sunday I watched the first episode of the new TV show Tiny House Big Living. I was really looking forward to the show and I wasn’t disappointed.

It was the episode that featured Jenna and Guillaume from Tiny House Journey. I’ve been following them from the start of their build and through their travels that they began many months ago. It was really nice to see them on the show.

It goes to show how popular downsizing and living a simpler life is returning. People are realizing how much better simplifying their life is for the family.

It’s wonderful to see that it’s become so popular that they are making television shows about the life now.

Tonight is episode two. Once again I’m finding myself looking forward to the show.

That is saying a lot. I don’t watch that much TV. There are very few shows that hold any interest for me.

I enjoy home renovation shows, cooking shows, and the odd series. This year one of the shows I’m enjoying is called Zoo.

With Tiny House Big Living, I am enjoying the life stories, the choices that they made, the building process…their journey.

I know where I’ll be tonight (it may be on another night in your location). I’ll be glued to my TV again for the next story.

I hope everyone else is enjoying the show as much as I am so it will continue.

The Yolo Cabin

Tiny Cabin In Sacramento Valley

Here is a tall tiny cabin that is situated on a 400 acre farm in the Sacramento Valley, California. It’s a very impressive building from the inside to outside. It’s very different from what we normally see.

It’s very unique and I love “unique”.

The building was inspired by local water towers and lean-to sheds.

They’ve incorporated a little of both into the project.

When you go up into the tower portion of the house you get a 360-degree view of the landscape.

The main part of the house is in the lean-to section.

There isn’t a big write-up on this tiny house but the pictures say it all.
