The Tiny Cabin is an ideal getaway for couples or good friends, and a perfect getaway for solo reflection and artist retreat.
We have a fully equipped pottery studio on the property and the kitchen is stocked with our handmade dishes.
By request I can teach pottery lessons if you have always wanted to try it out.
There is a massage therapist on the land that offers Esalen Massaga, as well as Foot Reflexology and Craniosacral Therapy. Pleas inquire for cost of sessions.
The Cabin is brand-new and has a big deck as additional outdoor space with a patio corner including a table and an outdoor shower with forest view through a glass wall.
We provide biodegradable organic soaps, shampoo, conditioner and cleaning products as well as fresh towels, wash cloths and a hair dryer.
An on-demand propane tank will provide hot water for the shower and the kitchen which includes a new small propane cookstove.
Apart from that the kitchen is stocked with all new appliances such as a fridge with freezer, a toaster oven that fits a 12” pizza, a toaster, an electric water kettle, an espresso maker and a french press for coffee.
We provide organic tea and coffee, organic sugar, salt, pepper and oil.
We also have seasonal availability of farm fresh eggs from our free range chickens.
There is everything you need to cook a meal and clean up after plus store your leftovers in the fridge.
The eating table can be folded up to create more floor space.
The sleeping loft is accessed by a ladder with extra safety bar to hold on to and support you climbing up and down from the loft. Physical ability to use ladder is a requirement.
There is enough room to stand in the middle of the loft but not under the slanted ceiling areas.
Our mini wood stove warms the place quickly and we have firewood onsite to use.
Drinking water comes in excellent quality straight from the tap from a 250 ft deep mountain well.
The composting toilet has a great view of the pond and is supplied with toilet paper and peat moss. It’s a stone’s throw away from the cabin and there are flashlights available plus solar lights and torches along the way.
Beside the pond you have the opportunity to relax in a family sized hammock under big trees and enjoy the sounds of nature.

We are at the upper end of a paved road on Kapour Mountain with a gravel driveway to the cabin. Lots of parking space available. Space for pitching a tent is available next to pond on request. Extra cost for tent is $25.
As a general rule we do not host young children for safety reasons, as the sleeping loft area is only accessible by a ladder and could be a safety risk. If your child is over 7 yrs of age and you are confident they can safely and respectfully be in the cabin please let us know and we can talk about it.
At this point we do not welcome dogs to protect our farm animals. Thanks for your understanding.
*Pottery lessons are available upon request!
* If you would like to book some time for relaxation and treatment to pamper yourself, book a session with Phoebe who lives on the land and offers Esalen Massage, Foot Reflexology and Craniosacral Therapy. She has 34 years of experience and excellent references. Pls ask.
