Discover Enchanting Tiny House Resorts Across the United States
If you are enchanted with the thought of tiny living and you’d like to give it a whirl without any long-term commitment, consider spending a few nights at a tiny-home resort. With all the hype around tiny living, it’s no surprise that there’s a growing number of these lovable resorts across the nation from Colorado to New York to Wisconsin.
Think Big! A Tiny House Resort – South Cairo, New York
A few hours north of New York City in the Catskills, you’ll find Think Big! A Tiny House Resort tucked away among the mountains and waterfalls. It’s 11 fantastically outfitted tiny homes with everything you need to relax and recharge. Enjoy fire pits, an arts and crafts studio, a cedar soaking tub, and a pool. Even farm animals, including ducks, goats, and bunnies, roam these parts.
Upon arrival, you’ll likely meet mother-and-daughter duo, Margie and Melissa, who will show you around. All the creature comforts are available including heat, air-conditioning, a kitchen, shower, flushable toilet, and dedicated wi-fi.
Keep yourself busy by cooking up dinner on your Weber grill or ordering from local restaurants, playing lawn games, watching family movies on the outdoor screen, and roasting marshmallows over your fire pit. When you’re ready to venture out, it’s a short walk to the on-site waterfall. Alternatively, you can enjoy creek tubing, goat yoga, or a stroll along the Hudson River Skywalk. In winter, ski at nearby Hunter or Windham and hike the trails at North-South Lake. Woodstock and Hudson are a short drive away and worth a visit.
