Whether you grew up in a cabin, adopted one as you got older or relish the lifestyle that comes with cabin living, you can be a Cabin Mama too!

You’ll know you’re a Cabin Mama too if you…

  • relish living in the woods,
  • enjoy wood smoke and campfire smells on your clothes,
  • have a love/hate relationship with squirrels,
  • love the looks of knotty pine,
  • use pine cone fire starters,
  • jealously guard your stacks of firewood,
  • can cook over an open fire,
  • love the smell of bacon and hash,
  • collect old wool army blankets,
  • have used kerosene lamps,
  • love wildflower bouquets and wild strawberries,
  • frequently engage in sing-a-longs,
  • savor coffee on the deck or porch,
  • trade plants with neighbors,
  • host hunting parties and camp reunions,
  • collect old hats and coats people left behind,
  • have been known to use an outhouse,
  • pump water at the well,
  • enjoy the iris and daffodils Gramma planted,
