We should all add architect to our résumés. Weren’t we all building forts with our siblings and friends in the living room almost a lifetime ago? Since a young age, we’ve appreciated the idea of having a small cozy place to escape to. Many years have passed since we were building and designing forts from the original cabin kits– Grandma’s kitchen chairs and blankets. If the idea of having a cozy cabin, container home, or tiny house still resonates with you, here’s your chance to pick out your adult fort. A prefabricated cabin would make the perfect addition to your property.

A prefabricated cabin, often referred to as prefab cabin, can be used for many things. A home away from home, a hunting cabin, a guest house, a playroom for your children, storage, you name it.

If there’s a loved one in your life working in the oilfield industry, a travel trailer or cabin kit is probably an investment for them. Many oil workers travel for work, and often live in compacted trailers or hotels during their time away. The 399 square-foot Tiny Home RV gives off a farmhouse feel and less of a studio space. It has a wooden interior and is complete with a bedroom, bathroom, living room, kitchen, and front porch.

What a perfect prefab kiosk for business owners! When road tripping through southern states such as Texas, you’ll often see people selling tasty summer treats like homegrown peaches and plums. I grew up buying watermelons and peaches off a truck bed from ranch owners, but this might make transactions easier if lines get long.

This is not your typical log cabin. Saracen Outdoor’s two-story prefabricated home is eco-friendly and has one of the largest floor plans on the prefab cabin market.

They can relax, dry off, and eat all of their summertime snacks and meals here without having to worry about a mess in the living room inside your home.

My first thought with this modern prefab cabin was Jeep lovers. You can open the top! This modern design is eco-friendly. It has a roof that can be expanded automatically with a remote control. The solar and wind power top expansion can allow you to catch some vitamin D while relaxing inside.

This 9×6 western red cedar cabin is ideal for bookworms. If you need a space to store books, you have enough space for a few shelves, and even a comfortable chair or twin bed for reading on. There are even six windows for natural light.

If you have any little ones in your life, they would practically try to live in this. The Pennfield Playhouse is a great alternative if you don’t have a spare room for your child to have a designated playroom. This Little Cottage Company Playhouse varies in sizes from a 9×8, with the largest sizes at 11×12.

The patio area on this one is a plus! This cabin design would definitely encourage me to sit outside and enjoy the outdoors as much as possible before heading into the living area. It’s the perfect area for relaxing with friends and family while grilling. The 292 square-foot Lillevilla cabin also has an upstairs sleep loft.

You could also use it as a container home.

Make cabin plans because there’s plenty of ways to use prefabricated cabins, container homes, and tiny homes. These modern designs differ from the traditional log cabin homes we are used to seeing, but these high quality materials make fantastic homes, offices, and much more.
