“We bought a porch that had a cabin attached to it” are the clever words my friends used to describe the purchase of their lake home in northern Minnesota back in 1991. It’s a basic cabin with a huge, screened-in porch that has room for two additional double beds and an eating area.
I am blessed to be able to go up north with my friend to her cabin. We relax and enjoy the lake during the day. At night we fall asleep on the beds in the porch, feeling the cool breezes off the lake and listening to the loons.
It’s a wonderful porch – with a lockable door so no critters, like raccoons for instance, can get in!
Some day I hope to stay at a place like this. That porch would have sold me on this cabin. What a lovely cabin in an equally lovely setting.
I, too, hope you get to stay at a cabin like this someday. We had a wonderful time.
It did storm last night…the porch offers more protection than a tent but the storm is up close and personal! Of course we could have gone into the cabin…
I’m glad you had the protection of the porch and the cabin, if needed. Hopefully there was no damage to your friend’s cabin or property.
