VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Welcome to "A Lot A' Pines," the custom-built, tiny cabin retreat of Kevin and Elizabeth in beautiful Northwest Montana! Discover how this inspiring couple, driven by a love for Montana wildlife and a desire for a peaceful, quiet resort, constructed their dream cabin almost entirely themselves—after Kevin’s 30-year military career.

This full cabin tour and honest discussion reveals their frugal, DIY building process, clever storage solutions, and the rustic design choices that make this small home unique.

Key Features & DIY Details:
Custom Kitchen: See their open-concept design featuring a handcrafted butcher block countertop, deep farmhouse-style sink, propane four-burner stove, and convenient pull-out cabinet storage for spices and pots. They maximized space with open shelving in this tiny cabin kitchen.

Rustic Living Room: The cozy space includes an electric fireplace, large windows for natural light, and furniture sourced from Costco. Check out the beautiful reclaimed cedar beam and the husband-built ladder leading up to the sleeping loft!

The Loft Bedroom: A dedicated bedroom featuring a steep roof pitch (essential for heavy Montana snow) and a queen-sized bed, complete with clever storage and strategically placed outlets for charging phones.

Reclaimed Materials: Learn how they secured multiple truckloads of free reclaimed cedar for the interior, minimizing costs and adding stunning rustic character. They detail the hard work of re-sanding and prepping the wood themselves.

Frugal Construction: Kevin and Elizabeth share the incredible cost breakdown, estimating their total foundation, walls, and roof at only $6,000 to $7,000! They explain how they poured the concrete, hammered every nail, and installed the roof with help from YouTube tutorials and friends.

Off-Grid Systems: Get an honest look at their simple and cost-effective off-grid solutions, including a camper-style water heater and pump, and a 26-gallon portable septic storage tank—perfect for their cabin in the woods.

Outdoor Living: Tour the simple, comfortable outdoor area with a propane fire pit, essential for enjoying the clean air and stunning Montana landscape.
