Cabins

I don't know if you know this but there's a solar eclipse happening this April and people from all over the world will be traveling to the tri-state as we are in the path of totality. If you were hoping to book a camping spot for the eclipse, you are probably out of luck...

How about a trip back in time for your next long weekend getaway?

If you are up for an adventure, there's a secret 109-year-old cabin that you can visit that's hidden away deep in the Mark Twain National Forest in Missouri.

Would you like to get away from it all without really having to travel that far? I found an option in the middle of Missouri. It's a unique structure that is part cabin, part barn and part tiny home and you really can stay in it.

What would you be willing to do so your family could travel across America without having the money for hotels or places to stay? One Midwest guy built a tiny cabin on wheels so he and his wife could travel the country and they're completely self-sufficient in it.

Sometimes it's good to getaway without having to getaway too far. If that's your mentality right now, I found a rustic Quincy cabin that has a peaceful pond in the back that you can stay at.

Sometimes to figure out where you're going, you need to explore where you've been. There is history available to explore in southern Illinois at a secluded cabin that happens to sit along the Trail of Tears in Shawnee Forest.

Are you interested in a brief stay-cation? I found an option in our neck of the woods quite literally. It's a small cabin located between Hull and Kinderhook, Illinois that's situated next to a small creek.

Sometimes you just need to be in the right place at the right time. Proof of that is a Missouri cabin that just so happens to be at the junction where it overlooks where two major rivers meet.

As part of my personal mission to find getaway options that don't require a huge tank of gas, I found a log home that sits on 80 acres in central Missouri that has a pool table and also a sweet private lake.
