16 Apr 2008 Coolhunter.net: Sunset Cabin in Ontario
 |  Category: Consumer, Linkage  | One Comment

For all the architectural enthusiasts who enjoy the outdoors, this may be for you — a one-room cabin where you can watch the sunset (and nature can sort of watch you, too).

Sunset Cabin, Lake Simcoe, Ontario

The owner couple of this beautiful pre-fabricated cabin on the shores of Lake Simcoe in Ontario, Canada, has been coming to their large recreational property for a quarter-century. But the big property in a great recreational location translated into lots of overnight guests and no privacy for the owners.

They felt they needed a “getaway,” a place at their own property where they could capture the peace and serenity of the surrounding four-season nature without disturbing any of the existing trees or structures. They needed a place that remembers what the Simcoe cottage-country is all about.

Have a look at the photos: does the exterior look a little too transparent? It says the slats are positioned so there’s no direct view in, but hmmm… I’m sure the cabin attracts many a curious animal.
