Realtor.com
On these cold and dreary winter days when the temperature is plunging, many of us begin to envy bears in the wild, who just take a long nap that lasts till spring. It’s a fine idea.
But since hibernation isn’t an option for humans, why not indulge in dreams of cozy log cabins, where weekends can even stretch to seven days long?
And since we’re fantasizing here, let’s throw in luxury features and fabulous locations, far enough from civilization to get away from it all, but close enough for you to get out when you’re in need of some company or recreation?
We’ve found five ultraluxe log cabins that fulfill these reveries. They’re all for sale, but many of them are also available for short-term rental, so you can try before you buy.
Dare to dream…
276 Seven Dwarfs Rd, Las Vegas, NV
Price: $3,350,000
Cabin in the woods: This 7,000-square-foot cabin is more like a castle in the woods, with a fortified exterior, three fireplaces, five bedrooms, and six baths.
Most people don’t realize there’s a posh mountain community close to Sin City. The Mount Charleston area is where folks go in the summer to cool off, or stay cozy in the winter when they tire of the dry and frigid desert winds.
You might even be tempted to stay here all year round. The luxe home features custom ironwork, a chef’s kitchen with three ovens, heated balconies and decks, a massive primary suite, game lounge, gym, and office space. The property even comes with a private stream.
And perhaps best of all, it truly is move-in ready. All furniture and artwork, including the bronze statues, are included in the sale.
