Thanks Timmy for the tour of your cabin. It’s very efficient as well as cute and cozy. Erin and you are very talented folks. Enjoy those beautiful views. Blessings
Awesome place! Cool seeing the birds free and flying around.
Absolutely stunning cabin dude. It's amazing how much work it woulda taken to build something so beautiful. Alot of nails, alot of sawing alot of measuring and endless steps up and down a ladder . You and your dad make a great team. The real question is. If your dad threw in the towel today. Could you carry on next summers project without him with the knowledge he showed you already on this build? I'm 100% positive, your fully capable. Whatever happens next year. Don't wear yourself out. And be gentle on your old man. Remember the house is for you and not you for the house. 3 months is way to fast, keep stress to a minimum. spread it out a bit, enjoy life and keep a pace that wont harm you or your relationship with your dad.
It is small but definitely livable. Very nice job for 3 months of work. Love the tongue and groove woodwork throughout the house. That takes alot of time to do it right. BEAUTIFUL!!!
Absolutely love it! Thanks for sharing
So cool! I am buying a house this year but still want to build something really small. It is just hard to do it, there are so many minimal size restrictions in most counties. I love the design! You and your dad did an AMAZING job!
Great tour, thank you, it is a neat cabin and future plan. Hope your dad makes it back for the next project. I also think your video with him and his gorgeous cabin is still my favorite. Says volumes about you, too. Rock on, Timmy!
Very cool cabin. Good plan for the big house… And then to run out the cabin to have it all pay for itself. Very wise planning. Stay safe and well
Absolutely brilliant and beautiful cabin.
Having 2 bedrooms and the out room is very doable for the average nester, the down bedroom will appeal to an older renter with sore knees. The whole premises is very akin to life in a Resort area. Bravo Dad and Son for the Kinship!
Thanks Timmy for all your content. And all you show to us.
Love the cabin. Thanks for the tour. I look forward to seeing the main house build hopefully soon.
Everything you need. Awesome house man!
Your cabin is fantastic. Headquarters for your adventurous life deployed in a stunning location. But even better is the fact you made it in 3 months with your Loving Dad! That’s the Magic. And you clearly have a smart vision for your property’s future. Thanks for bringing us inside for a peek. I am curious how you insulated the structure and what windows you used to accommodate for the cold and the dark. Erin is quite accomplished in her woodworking.
Beautiful
Hell, I could live there. It's a lot of space. Well, done!
Really Beautiful Really Perfect, Very Smart Build
Ellijay, GA!!!!!! My grandparents built a cabin with their kids back in the 1960's on a couple acres in Ellijay. They retired there full time in the 1970's. I spent many summers there!
Very nice cabin..
Oh Timmy. Man! I can't believe you have your horseshoe pointed down. You got to change that. That's really bad luck. Your lucky your even still alive. LOL. No seriously, you should turn that horseshoe pointed up so your luck doesn't run out. Don't tempt fare man! Remember when your truck broke down out west for like 2 weeks and you were stuck in the hills / mountains trying to fix it. I bet it was because you had left this darn horseshoe pointed down while you were on your trip. Better change that quick before a meteor lands on your roof. LOL.
You flip it over when you have no mortgage
Lol, I noticed that right away, too! Cute cabin.
A Scot Blacksmith had a guy stop late at night. He had cloven feet and had thrown a shoe. (two pieces like an ox) The Smith knew it was the devil and nailed the shoe painfully into the quick of his hoof. The Smith wouldn't fix it until the devil swore never to cross the sign of a blacksmith. In pain, the devil agreed. So if the horseshoe is up like the Irish believe or any direction like the Scots believe. It keeps you safe.
What a load of superstitious nonsense !!! No such thing as luck ....good or bad. A horseshoe is exactly that a shoe from a horse. Grow up and leave the kids make believe behind. Try living by faith not fear, and get your life into gear. Such superstition is unhealthy for upu Spiritually, Physically, Mentally, and Emotionally. This is what the Govts been manipulating people with since Fauci started this "live by fear science".
I'm delighted to see a person living by refuting such nonsense and leading such happy and prosperous life. 👏👏👏🤗🙏👍✌️👏👏👏
Holy shit man I'm high and this is the best damn comment I've seen all my lmao
Your house is my Alaska Dream Home!
Nice cabin, especially for rent. Btw, spiral staircases were trendy in the late 60's through the 70's. Beautiful views
I have been waiting forever for this video. I love seeing videos of small cozy type cabins
Your dad is an amazing man and the video where you showed his masterpiece of a cabin and him is still one of my favorite videos of yours. Love your content and outlook on things. As a dad myself I can tell you he is very proud of you and I hope he has a speedy recovery.
Nice pad🏕
Most impressive young man . There's a lot of good things I could say . But I'll make it short as possible. You've engineered a most wonderful life and I'm sure you'll agree that there are some wonderful people in your life that have been there for you in many ways along the way that I know you appreciate. Sharing all of this with whomever wants to see it will inspire many I'm sure . Keep on keeping on young man and thanks .
Absolutely love this cabin. You and your Dad did an amazing job! It is gorgeous. Can't wait to see what you two come up with on the new build.
When you're ready to rent, think about replacing that spiral staircase with some sturdier, and easier to maneuver, stairs. Maybe about a foot wide going up the wall your couch is on. (Or maybe somehow from the mud room, if that's possible)
Would make it easier, and safer, for your renters. (You're a young, active man in shape and you say you have to turn a bit going up them. May be a bit difficult for older or larger guests - or ones that are simply clumsy like me!)
Could even add some drawers and storage into them like so many small homes with lofts do.
I know it would take away from the living space but that spiral staircase terrifies me! Could see me trying to go to the bathroom (or to the refrigerator for a snack) when I'm half asleep in the middle of the night and landing on my face 😂
Your cabin shows up on google maps! What a nice location. Haven't been to girdwood (my friend that lived there called it "grimwood", don know why) since 1987. Your videos are great, keep up the good work!, you are truly livin' the life!
Awesome design Timmy, very functional with room to grow!
Very nice love it. Thanks Florida Joe
Enjoyed this video, adventure videos, and hopefully BUILD videos.
Cool
Wow how nice 🥰 beautiful
Great job 👋👍👍
Thank you 🤗
Nice place Timmy...I'm guessing that hwy out your window is the same hwy the wife and I drove right by your town / place on are epic, two week bucket list trip thru Alaska and Canada about a month ago...It's a beautiful place Alaska we loved it!...take care...Eagle Eye / my parents named me Timmy too...
Timmy this is Jimmy. Nice Cabin.✌🤜🤛
Living. The. Dream.
Are there fish in the stream?
It's perfect!
Awesome place Timmy, more so because you and Pops built it. Looking forward to seeing the main house soon.
Friend, In a CABIN in ALASKA. I really expected to see at Least 3 or 4 Hunting Rifles hanging on the walls. Place seemed a wee-mite EMPTY without them. Not a complaint, just a comment.
They're hidden;)
You mentioned Erin, is that your wife/gf? I've only seen her a couple times in a couple videos so far.
I love the way you speak so highly of your Pop. You’re a good son💖⭐️
Awesome!
Nice digs!...... Are those birds housebroken? lol
Todo esta tan lindo como tu😍
Pretty amazing place you designed Timmy! I'm working on a 20x20 place in Fairbanks so appreciate all of the thought that has to go into space saving, storage, and dual-purpose areas. Do you remember what you spent building this place, all told?
I'm working on a 16×24 cabin in North Pole, lol!
Awesome! Small us beautiful. Nice tribute to your dad. Love the spiral staircase. Hope things align for your new build soon. 👍😎🇨🇦🌲🌊
Dude w/a BIdet -- LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s awesome dude! Love the cabin
Hello good Morning, hermoso paraje y encantadora casa, I like, saludos desde Puenteareas.
I like it. Natural look, cozy nice scenery and nice layout. Is the lumber reclaim wood or did you buy it from store
I couldn't understand what you said about your kitchen stove - was it that it was expensive(?)
yup small stoves are more expensive
You are a smart man! You and your dad did a great job! Love the cabin!
It's not messy just tell them you fired the maid.🤣 I know how the help your father out I did it too when I was a kid. The only 8 year old who can build a block wall.👍👍🤣🤣🤣
Finally found the cabin tour video! What a great rental "chalet"! A lot of personality in this cozy space, yet quite comfortably liveable. The birds think it is their own treehouse! Lol!
The horse shoe above the door (18:26) is hung upside down. The way you have it hung lets all the good luck run out.
Never get tired of your cabin tours . It’s beautiful. The birds are just helping with the tour. They’ve got opinions 😂
Cell is too close to be useful for that area. It's actually servicing further out from your location.
In south Florida this would cost 18 million dollars. Per month. Without utilities.
Rip parakeet!
Just a thought, you most likely have a ton of capable carpenters as “fans” viewers, throw a build party and have a few guys come down and spend a couple weeks camping, BBBqing and building, probably knock it out in a week or two lol
Girdy is a awesome little town. I miss the dbl Musky and chair 5. Gotta get back to AK again, the wife’s never been.
I don't know which I love more, the your cabin or the truck cabin? Ah Heck!! I love them both and wish I were young and rich enough to copy them both to live in! I can't believe I am saying that since the kitchen countertops in your cabin is about what I currently have in my house. I have always dreamed of having more counter & cupboard space because I love to cook and bake. But, I still love the little kitchen in your cabin. I definitely want to search and find the video the other individuals comments have mentioned of your Dad and a cabin he built. Thank you for sharing your talent and dreams with us. P.S. You treat Amanda right and hang on to her, she is one very talented and smart young lady. I noticed she had an aloe vera cactus in a pot, very smart. Cut open a leaf and rub the gel onto burns for faster healing and less pain. I live in Arizona desert and we always have it growing outside our kitchen door.
Sweeet
Maybe I missed it, are you going to do short-term rentals or long term rentals? It's a nice looking cabin.
long term
Way cool! Actually visited Girdwood in 1986 as part of my grand tour of Alaska. ;) Excellent idea to build a rental unit there.
Awesome:)
That's a sweet cabin...I could live there just fine...👍plus the views ...
Sad about the Sami ,,, but the Cabins made up for it Great work ..... and a Hello from Tasmania !
Enjoy hell out of your vids!
Thank you. You are very cordial) with your existances.
Thank u for the kind words:)
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️
What an awesome place! I could live in that.
Gotta say I love what you have going on there. I’m leaving the military soon and with housing prices like they are, we’re looking to go small like you have. Thank you for the awesome video!
Nice spread and should be a money maker.
Good luck.
P.S, I’ll never understand people’s need to see in another’s house.
I get it when your in your truck, that’s unusual,.
Anyway, although it matters not to me what your domicile looks like, thanks for taking the time to feed the masses.

Nice little cabin, Timmy! Efficient use of space. It would make a very fine Airbnb or short term rental for ski season.
I was admiring that sweet little spiral staircase and realized: you definately don't want to try that one in the dark while intoxicated! 😁
Really cool!!! 😉👍🙋♀️🙅♀️🙆♀️
Love your home, cozy and inviting!
It's like living inside of a walnut.
Love it man! Live life outdoors. Functional and cozy.
😅hello my friend from ßà
No views like that out my window here in Ohio.
Your cabin is fantastic a true work of art and love.you and your dad are talented beyond belief.
I love it I wish I could move there it would be a welcome change from what I have here in Vermont.
I like the little grill you have on the porch I have the same one.LOL
Love it! What's rent go for up there?
Ain't cheap haha
@@TruckHouseLife yea, I kinda figured that lol I definitely need to go up there, at least once
This is the perfect size for me! Where do I buy plans maybe?
No plans we just sketched it up.
I drove through your town a few times while I was up in Alaska. Super beautiful all along the coast
Finally! I've been waiting to see this master peice ever since you gave us a sneak peak a while back!
Cool cabin, glad you got to do that with your dad. Awesome memories of quality time spent!! Kudos
That's a full bathroom and for a person like me, it's freaking huge. Awesome 👍
The moment I have been waiting for Timmy my dude! Love the cabin man!
Will have to put some extra bucks in the next donation to help with that house project 🐸...by the way, did you receive the $50 I sent you? I think it was May ...greetings from 🇺🇾
Very cozy looking ! Nice job....thanks for showing !
Tim, do you have bird poop everywhere? When we had finches and 2 cockatiels they occasionally got loose, flew around the house and left 'deposits' everywhere.....
Heyy What's Up Timmy!😎❣
Wow that's a simple small cabin, you must be completely out of touch with reality or completely spoiled that cabin is huge to most hard working people that put in 60 to 80 hours a week not just drive around having fun and making money off a youtube channel!
Are people like you that just build all the shit that they want from scratch engineer majors or archichitect/construction majors? Building log cabins is my dream job.
Praying for your Dad.
Oh my, what an AMAZING place you live in, mate! Purely beautiful!
Your cabin is awesome Brother! Love it!!
Hey Tim, not sure if I sent you a message but have you ever checked out Chicken Alaska? Check out ChickenStock! Meet you there!
How old is Pops?
What's the monthly electric bill look like?
$20 summer, $75 winter
