My father built a block building back into the mountain as a can house / root cellar when I was a kid. We had lots of canned beans, tomatoes, homemade vegetable soup, etc. And a big bin for 35 bushels of potatoes. Since three walls were set into the mountain it never froze inside.
Beautiful. It’s always nice to get a job completed and be able to stand back and look at it with appreciation and know that you did that. And the dual purpose even makes it better. Great job guys.
You did a great job on your little cabin. It’s just the right size to share with guests, and so cozy! I couldn’t help but notice the quilt on the bed, it’s perfect. And congratulations grandma and grandpa, I am sure June won’t get here fast enough. See you next time.
This video is really getting some attention! You two deserve it. I've been a fan from the beginning. Was even first to like your Facebook page. Brooke even chimed in I see! Thanks for giving this downstater ideas for the future. 😊
What a nice surprise, finding a new video from you guys today 🙂 The weekender looks wonderful. Love the metal ceiling, TG walls and the awesome floor (with the nails). Congratulations on your first grandchild. So special. Looking forward to the greenhouse and all of the spring things coming up. Smart to do as you can and avoid getting into debt. Three years is not so long, in the final analysis. You've come so far in a relatively short amount of time. God bless
I like the guest cabin above the root cellar. It will help regulate the temperature better when it is real cold or hot. I spent 1 whole weekend building all of the shelves that my wife wanted. Now I have all of her friends wanting me to make them some.
Perfect little setup! Please install a carbon monoxide detector if you haven’t already especially with that propane heater. Well done space! Love the root cellar.👍🏻
@@wookiejesusofnazarethkashy1940 the perfect property does exist...all in the eye of the beholder. I have a short list of the specific things I need for any place. Yeah times wasting, but time isn't the only factor.
Guest cabin looks awesome ! The walls went together nicely, Friends or family will love their little space:) Yes you have an awesome root cellar , That is a lot of jars ! you will be well set when they are full "
I get many years use from my cardboard jar boxes. Really easy, I sprayed empty boxes with polyurathane. Got the Idea from instructions on a vintage Coleman Lantern box, to preserve the box for lantern storage.
You can sit right on the bed and bag a moose or deer at the same time. Using the window seal to steady your rifle. I have to tell you how impressed I'am with your root cellar. It is gorgeous.
When I saw this video, I thought oh here we go again, just another cute little cabin out in the woods, then I saw the root cellar. I have to admit that's pretty slick. Nice job.
It’s definitely not the traditional build of a root cellar, but we have very sandy well draining soil. I have never laid block so I thought I would try it with wood. So far so good. The little cabin over top was just a bonus. Thanks for watching and for your comment!!
So glad i found your channel tonight. I love the cabin, definitely Not to small. Id live in it for petes sake. You did a tremendous job building it. When you said root cellar below i thought ?? What are they talking about ? Holy Cow ! Lol. Amazing! You folks are true Survivors ! That is gorgeous down there. Look at all the food. I am genuinely happy for you. Everyone i tell to build something like that or get food that will last a year etc they all laugh at me. WTHeck... I don't want to see my great grandkids starve to death but how do i convince their mom to do something about issues that might come our way.? You folks are living your best life. Good for you. God Bless you all. Amen Big Jim New Hampshire USA aka Boston Strong
A diesel heater needs to be well vented. I worked in buildings heated by torpedo heaters run on diesel fuel. I would rather have been cold than breath that.
We have other videos on what we have built here. If you want to see the root cellar build it’s titled Mastering the Art of Root Cellar Storage. We had not started our channel at the time we started building it so we did what we could with the photos we had. Thanks for watching!
Turned out soooo good! What an amazing space for both applications :)
Thank you! We can’t wait for our first guests. 😊
Looks great! What brand/model of ventless propane heater are you using?
Wow that’s pretty nice like that root cellar 👍
Thank you and thanks for watching. ☺️
I was impressed with the little guest cabin, but the root cellar is amazing!
Thank you and thanks for watching and commenting!!
Love the root cellar under the cabin.
Thank you! ☺️
Really nice! I have thought about something like this in my head before... first time seeing a small cabin built this way.
Great job folks. Congratulations.
Thank you and thanks for watching! 😊

We originally wanted to do one in a hillside but we just didn’t have the right hill. 😆
First time I have ever seen a tiny house with a cellar!! That's so cool!!
Thank you! And thanks for watching. 😊
Just the best root cellar I have ever seen! And the cabin is cute too :)
Thank you and thanks for watching! ☺️
This is wonderful!!!
Thank you! And thanks for watching. 😊
Beautiful. It’s always nice to get a job completed and be able to stand back and look at it with appreciation and know that you did that. And the dual purpose even makes it better. Great job guys.
Hey thanks! Hoping it works out to meet up this summer. 😊
@@ADifferentKindofQuiet I’m pretty sure we can make that happen, Glenda and I were thinking the same thing.
It looks really nice. I know propain is cleaner than a wood burning stove, but it gives off water vapor though.
Those are indeed some very nice, sturdy shelves.
Looks Awesome Sir I hope you get many years of enjoyment 💯
Thank you! 😊
That is a gold mine, thanks for posting. Love the weekender, blessings
Thank you and thanks for watching! 😊
I absolutely love this little cabin❤
Thank you! We can’t wait for our first guest. 😊
You did a great job on your little cabin. It’s just the right size to share with guests, and so cozy! I couldn’t help but notice the quilt on the bed, it’s perfect. And congratulations grandma and grandpa, I am sure June won’t get here fast enough. See you next time.
We are definitely excited! I love those denim quilts. My son wants another one as he wore the first one pretty thin. 🤣
Super clean and tidy my fellow Michiganders. Love from the Thumb.
Thank you! and thanks for watching. 😊

We can’t wait for June! Three years went pretty fast actually. 😊
❤ Cute set up in the cabin with a great use of space. Excellent root cellar ❤ Put some baking soda in a container to keep moisture down. ❤
Thank you! And thanks for watching. 😊

That means you did a great job when everyone else wants them! Thanks for watching!
Finally a neat one with storm refuge!
We haven’t had to use it for that yet but glad it’s there for when we need it. Thanks for watching! 😊
Rrot cellar?more like a stocked whole foods! Great job!

Nice work You two......great team work, It turned out GREAT. =)
Thank you! We can’t wait to fill it up with guests. It was fun building it but now on to the next project. 😁
Perfect little setup! Please install a carbon monoxide detector if you haven’t already especially with that propane heater. Well done space! Love the root cellar.👍🏻
Thanks for watching and commenting! Yes definitely, we have a CO/smoke alarm.
Brilliant,I love that root store that was a nice surprise.
Thank you and thanks for watching! 😊
Been looking for land in the UP for a while now, keeping an eye out for that perfect property. Glad I found your channel here. Cheers!
I hope you find it! It’s getting harder and harder to find. Thanks for watching! 😊
The perfect property doesn’t exist. Get something close and make it work. Time is wasting.
@@wookiejesusofnazarethkashy1940 the perfect property does exist...all in the eye of the beholder. I have a short list of the specific things I need for any place. Yeah times wasting, but time isn't the only factor.
OMG look at the cellar!!!!
It’s my favorite part! Thanks for watching. 😊
Best wishes for a long and productive life of contentment :)
Thank you and thanks for watching! 😊

Thank you and thanks for watching! ☺️
Root cellar is epic. I thought you were going down into the abyss. Then bam. Wow. And it could double as a storm shelter if ever needed.
Thank you and thanks for watching. 😊
Wonderful. Great design and execution of a wildly functional building. Love it.
Thank you! We can’t wait to use the guest room. ☺️
Looking good. Only suggestion I can think of is a lip on the canning shelves to keep things from falling off.
Why do you think you MUST make a suggestion? Narcissist much?
There is always one out there. Try to make a helpful comment and the complain.
I appreciate the suggestion. I’ve seen them on other canning jar shelves. Might be worth doing since the floor is cement. 😂. Thanks for watching!
Very nice. That was a lot of hard work! Congratulations!
Thank you! It was worth every second. 😊
Just beautiful.
Thank you! ☺️
Do you have a heater in the root cellar? Well done👏
No we don’t have heat in the cellar. It has never frozen. Thanks for watching! 😊
Wow I did not expect a cellar/basement which is really cool!
It definitely helps with food storage. Thanks for watching!
Very nice and and organize log cabin thanks for sharing this video
Thank you! And thanks for watching. ☺️
Good job. It looks really nice
Thank you! We are looking forward to our first guest. Thanks for watching. ☺️

Loved the root cellar! got my gears turning....@@ADifferentKindofQuiet
Well done! New friends here from Michigan! Cheers Colleen and Jonny

Amazing ! What a talented couple

¡Gracias! ¡Y Muchas gracias por mirar!
It's a beautiful setup
Thank you! ☺️
Thats fantastic! Congradulations on the new grandbaby❤
Thank you! We are excited. 😊 Thanks for watching.
You can sit right on the bed and bag a moose or deer at the same time. Using the window seal to steady your rifle. I have to tell you how impressed I'am with your root cellar. It is gorgeous.

Love this! Have often thought a unit as you've built would be an excellent investment on an off-the beaten-path piece of property. Genius!!
Thank you! And thanks for watching. 😊
Very nice folks. Well done
Thank you and thanks for watching! 😊
Thanks just watching is soothing, like this cabin and your help mate is tops, you hang on to this lady ,blessed
Thank you and thanks for watching! 😊

Amazing beautiful creation
Thank you! And thanks for watching. 😊
YES, THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I WANT, AND NEED, Y'ALL DID A GREAT JOB , THANK YOU FROM KY.
We have certainly enjoyed it! Thank you for watching! 😊
Really beautiful ! Maybe add a 12 volt fridge/freezer that will run off the cigarette plug of a power station, and you are golden !
That’s a good idea. Thanks for the tip and for watching. 😊
The root cellar is so kool ❤️
Hello to fellow friends from Michigan, Great video, Thanks!!!
Thank you and thanks for watching! 😊
Really enjoyed y'all's video , awesome surprise at the end with the cellar
Thank you and thanks for watching! 😊
Home is always a wounderfull place
Yes it is. 😊. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Great video. I would consider using a small de-humidifier in the root cellar. Might help with any moisture in the air.
We did end up buying one and we use it on occasion. It does a great job since it’s a small space. Thanks for watching and commenting. 😊

Thank you! I think the root cellar is definitely my favorite part of our homestead. Thanks for watching. I hope you enjoy our future content. ☺️
Nice work! great use of your extra time over the long haul...
Thank you! And thanks for watching. ☺️
Awesome little cabin/cellar! I love it
Thank you and thanks for watching! 😊
Great job guys love it , nice idea for the cellar too
Thank you and thanks for watching! 😊
Very nice, you should consider getting a different propane heater, maybe a diesel heater. To reduce moisture.
Thanks for the idea and thanks for watching!!
A diesel heater needs to be well vented. I worked in buildings heated by torpedo heaters run on diesel fuel. I would rather have been cold than breath that.
The root cellar under the guest cabin is a great idea. I’m a fellow Michigander.
Thank you! And thanks for watching. 😊
Very cool ! Nice work and congrats on your little cabin !
Thank you and thanks for watching! 😊
I'm currently using a portable one. May go the wall mount route. Thanks again.
Love seeing all your jars!!
Me too! 😄Thanks for watching!
Love this type of content.
Much love from Southern Michigan! :)
Thank you! And thanks for watching. 😊
The cellar is impressive. A solar powered air exchange could help as well. Well done.
Thank you and thanks for watching! 😊
