Free Off Grid Tiny Cabin Plans!

I designed and built my own off grid cabin 20+ years ago and have been designing cabins for other people for many years. These are a few of the free plans for tiny A Frames and Cabins and I have many other cabin sizes and styles available.
All cabins are designed for off grid simple living by an off gridder!

Nice, somebody will love them, well done.

Great plans! I like that you included hurricane ties. Too often people figure they can skimp out on small structures, but if you live in windy areas and you're thinking of sleeping in it, or might need to take shelter in it in a bad storm, you'll be much safer if it's well built and firmly attached to a solid foundation!

My personal preferences are for versions that have a front porch so you can shake off the rain or snow before going inside!  Something I quite miss with the house I currently live in.

Jay, can you easily add a veranda?

Our front door is half way up between the first floor (slab on grade) and the second floor. It opens onto a landing with stairs leading up and down. The builders put a concrete structure with outside stairs from grade to the door. But there's no roof over the structure and the stairs are too steep and what I think you call the "treads", are not deep enough. It's hard to justify fixing part of it, without it turning into a major project which we simply don't have the time for at the moment. However, since we live where it can easily be wet from Oct until the end of April, I figured I'd put a plug in encouraging people to design a practical porch area from the start!
