Today we're welcoming a self-proclaimed "grandma millennial" who's revolutionizing the retreat space in northern Michigan. From her first floating house project to her current ambitious ridge-top development, she brings a refreshing perspective on building without outside investors and doing things her own way. As someone who's flipped houses, built unique properties, and learned to trust her design instincts, she's now embarking on her most ambitious project yet - creating an intentional retreat space where groups can disconnect from the world and reconnect with nature.
For anyone interested in the nitty-gritty of financing creative projects, navigating zoning challenges, or building on difficult terrain, this episode offers candid insights into the reality of developing unique properties. We'll explore everything from the importance of novelty in saturated markets to the courage it takes to build something different, and why sometimes the best business strategy is simply following your own creative vision.

From seasonal RV sites to renovated riverside cabins and luxury glamping tents, Camille has created a space where nature lovers of all comfort levels can find their perfect stay. With a master's degree in children's literature and a thesis on Harry Potter, she brings an unexpected perspective to hospitality, weaving together stories of the property's past while crafting its future.
For anyone fascinated by the intersection of camping and cabin culture, or curious about how to thoughtfully renovate and manage multiple properties while preserving their heritage, this episode offers remarkable insights. We'll explore everything from estate sale discoveries to creating inclusive outdoor experiences, and how sometimes what makes a cabin a "cabin" lies in the eyes of the beholder. Let's dive in!

Today we're welcoming the co-owner of Norra Hem, a stunning cliffside cabin on Hornby Island, one of British Columbia's enchanting Gulf Islands. What started as a six-month renovation project turned into a two-year labor of love, transforming a family property into a luxury short-term rental that celebrates local culture and craftsmanship. Our guest shares her journey of building and launching their first rental property on an island that requires two ferry rides just to reach, and how they've created an intentional, immersive experience that honors both the property's family legacy and the island's unique character.
Whether you're dreaming of building a high-end cabin rental in a remote location, passionate about supporting local businesses, or searching for ways to create truly memorable experiences for your guests, this episode delivers invaluable insights. We'll explore everything from managing major renovation surprises to curating the perfect arrival experience, and how to maintain authenticity while delivering luxury accommodations.

This episode of the podcast is a bit different, and it's the first time we're doing a thematic episode. Rather than interviewing a cabin host and diving into their story and experience, I have TWO cabin hosts with me (one is a repeat guest, Melissa from Tanglebloom Cabin, and one is a brand new guest, Eman from the Catskill Equestrian Cabin), and together we dive into the theme of contentment. In a world of growth and more doors and scaling and revenue, we're asking ourselves how to know when 'enough is enough'. Is that thing? How do we listen to our guts? How do we run businesses that feel aligned with happiness instead of profits? These might be unanswerable questions, but it felt important to put them into the conversation in the same way we talk about growth. Thanks for joining us, as always, and can't wait to hear what you think!

Today we’re sharing something a bit different… Spenser and I had planned a podcast on Friday to talk about hospitality, and as the time neared it became clear we couldn’t just progress as usual with all that’s happening down here in North Carolina. So while we have lots of friends who host here in the mountains of North Carolina that I would have loved to jump on, we planned this very last minute and had Jandy, from Out of Bound Retreats, jump on so we could pivot and talk about all that’s happened in the past week. I will note, that by the time airs, some of what we discussed may have changed, we might have more information… this is not meant to be a news podcast. Just real time conversation around what we’re seeing, what we’re hearing, what we’re doing, and what we’re struggling with. Thanks, as always, for joining us 🤍

On this episode of the podcast I get to talk to Lindsey Bro, the human behind the VERY famous Instagram account, @cabinlove. It's hard to know for sure, but I'm 99% positive this is the account that got me hooked on 'cabin porn' as they call it. Featuring some of the coziest, most ideal, cabins worldwide, Lindsey has helped all of us escape our real live through her sharing of these retreats. Perhaps what I love most is the the cabins she features aren't always the fanciest, the most high end, the most unique... they're often just real life cabins in magical places, and the photos are enough to make us feel like we're there. This episode made me feel like I made a new friend, and I hope you feel the same way after listening 🤍

On this episode, we're thrilled to have a conversation with Shan McLagan, owner of Anupaya Cabin Co. Shan shares her inspiring journey of moving from the bustling city of Montreal to the serene, sleepy beach town of Deep River in Eastern Ontario. With a background in running a yoga studio and an online clothing company, Shan and her husband faced numerous challenges and risks to create their dream of building a cabin resort.
We delve into the unique charm of Deep River, with its abundance of beautiful, deserted beaches and the fascinating history of the town being almost the perfect town as described in a McLean's article from the 1950s. Shan’s story is a testament to the power of following your passion, taking risks, and finding contentment in the simpler, quieter aspects of life.
Join us as we explore the highs and lows of building a cabin business, the importance of creating spaces for rest and healing, and the beauty of living authentically.

On this episode of the Cabin Culture podcast we get to chat with Emily Padan from hinter. Emily, along with her husband Mauricio, started and run this incredible cabin company based out of Montreal, Canada. It all began with Mauricio’s first cabin, which found immediate success once they began hosting and sharing it with others. From there they began to dream a little bigger, and think about how to create more experiences similar to this one, to allow others to really experience the impact of slowing life down and spending time in nature. Since then they’ve built several more cabins, and host other cabins under their brand. What was most notable in talking to Emily was her crystal clear focus on their brand, what it represents, and how to consistently communicate it via their website, copy and imagery. Because this is a particularly daunting challenge for a lot of cabin owners, Emily has a ton of wisdom to share on how you can reflect on your own brand, and start consistently communicating it to future and past guests. Let’s do it!

Summary
In today's episode, we sit down with Skylar Wilson, one of the driving forces behind the family-run Wanderlust and Wild Soul Treehouses. Located on 40 acres of serene land, these treehouses offer a unique escape for couples seeking a peaceful nature retreat. Skylar shares her journey from helping her parents start the treehouse business to managing the properties alongside her family. We delve into the challenges of balancing full-time jobs with hosting, the creative process behind building and decorating the treehouses, and the importance of guest feedback. Join us as we explore the joys and trials of running a family-operated short-term rental business and the passion that drives them to create unforgettable guest experiences.
