Allwood Mayflower Garden House
Allwood
amazon.com
$7790.00
No, that's not your imagination talking—this 117-square-foot tiny house on wheels does, in fact, look like the wagons that were used to journey out west.
Made of high-quality Nordic wood responsible for that light-colored facade, this cute one-room garden getaway requires just a day's worth of elbow grease to officially become the perfect place to house your hobbies, or your guests.
Allwood Arlanda XXL
Allwood
amazon.com
$10895.00
More than 40-square-feet larger than the 227-square-foot XL version, this XXL tiny house allows for a full-size bedroom separated by a wall. That is, only if you want it.
Not yet ready to hit the hay in a room thaaat tiny? Just order sans wall to score 273-square-feet of open, say, office space.
Allwood Solvalla Studio Cabin Kit
Allwood
amazon.com
$7350.00
Measuring at a total of 172-square-feet, this compact creation is more of a "she shed" than a tiny house—but it'll still be the envy of all your neighbors. If you're just looking for a one-room escape to, say, practice a little painting or zen out, this "studio cabin" is for you.
And, sure, you could house your guests out there too, but you'd probably want to add HVAC or electricity first, since this DIY-able dwelling doesn't include any of those amenities.
Timber Frame Post and Beam Vermont Cottage
Jamaica Cottage Shop, Inc.
amazon.com
$18916.00
This cute lil cottage is just like the one you used to have at summer camp. Ah, the memories. Relive all the feels—and make plenty of new mems along the way—with this cozy wooden structure that boasts a 240-square-foot first floor, 96-square-foot loft space, and 80-square-foot porch.
Along with a set of instructions, this kit comes with a corrugated metal roof, barn sash windows with screens (buh-bye bugs!), a thick pine door, and all fastening hardware.
Allwood Timberline
Allwood
amazon.com
$34900.00
Practically a Lincoln Log creation IRL, this 483-square-foot structure will make your inner child straight-up squeal. Inside the customizable Red Roof Inn Home is a 129-square-foot loft and 354-square-foot-floor area that can be filled with essential amenities like a kitchen, bathroom, and extra storage. You can also add windows and an extended roof if you're feeling ~fancy~.
Allwood Ranger Cabin Kit
Allwood
amazon.com
$19990.00
This cute lil cabin is designed with Mother Earth in mind (yay, for all you sustainable shoppers!). Thicker wall planks make it more energy efficient and able to withstand colder climates—plus, its roof is at an angle that makes it ideal for solar panels.
Inside you'll find a spacious main floor (259-square-feet) and loft (168-square-feet). While it only requires minimal tools and includes step-by-step instructions, this tiny home takes a bit longer to build: three days with help from another adult, according to the Amazon description.
Allwood Eagle Point
Allwood
amazon.com
$46900.00
Coming in at an impressive 1,108-square-feet, Allwood Eagle Point is the largest cabin that still technically qualifies as a tiny home (thanks to its relatively tiny price tag). But its spacious size is not the only standout feature of this two-story (!!) cabin.
At the center of the structure is a winding wooden staircase that connects the two floors, both of which can be customized to your every whim. More windows? Add 'em on. Less rooms? Nix a wall or two. The only thing this not-so-tiny tiny house lacks is insulation—you'll have to install that on your own. But, hey, for a bad boy like this that's no biggie.
Allwood Bella Cabin Kit
Allwood
amazon.com
$17800.00
Divided into a 237 square-foot first floor with a bathroom plus kitchenette and an 86-square-foot loft, this entire 324-square-foot structure is perfect as a lakeside retreat or a backyard cottage for guests (I see you @ Grammy).
Like Allwood's Ranger Cabin, this cute lil number also has thicker wooden planks that make it a win for Mother Nature (read: energy efficient). And the pros don't stop there. It takes less than two days—16 hours to be exact—to DIY, according to the Amazon description.
Allwood Dreamcatcher
Allwood
amazon.com
$10995.00
With a name like "Dreamcatcher," you just know this tiny house is going to be good. A total of 205-square-feet, this cute, colorful cabin is made high-quality spruce wood and comes with a french door to really impress visitors.
All you need to DIY? Ten hours (and another adult). Once that's all said and done, the options are endless: set up the structure as anything from your ~dream~ cottage (get it?) to a comfy guest house or secluded office space.
Sunset Log Cabin Kit
BZBCabinsAndOutdoors
amazon.com
$8950.00
At just 162-square-feet, this spruce-lined cabin might be small in size, but it's definitely not small in potential. Complete with lots of windows—not to mention glass-paneled front doors—this tiny house lets in tons of natural light.
And with a wrap-around porch just begging to be filled with cushiony chairs and fun seating (read: hammock), it clearly takes indoor-outdoor living seriously. Nature lovers, this rustic one's for you!
Why buy a house when you can DIY one?
