lost river modern

i love west virginia. like, love love. i have the best memories of summer camp, time at the greenbrier, and freezing summers spent rafting down incredible rivers. i think the state gets a bad rap (especially up where i live) so i love seeing modern homes like this pop up in such a beautiful place. if you’re looking for an incredible place to get away from it all, connect with nature and reconnect with life outside of the office, may i suggest this fantastic modern cabin, lostrivermodern, in west virginia. this modern prefab cabin was on materialicious (i’m really into that site right now) yesterday and i’m seriously already considering packing my bags for a last-minute summer trip. if you’re looking for a getaway click here for more information- even if you’ve never been to “wild, wonderful” west virginia this house should be a fun place to relax for a few days.

The house is built on a slope, so from inside the house it feels like you’re in a treehouse. Very cool

It’s too hard to use hotels with babies unless you have really good babies OR you don’t care if your babies cry and drive the neighbors insane. Also, it’s a drag to have to go to bed when the kids do. But you can’t exactly leave them alone in a hotel room when you go to the bar (altho heather/dooce did once and the whole world came down on her, remember that?)
