Ep 5. Green Mountains Dream Cabin

In Log Cabin Living season 2 episode 5, titled "Green Mountains Dream Cabin," viewers follow a New York City couple as they search for their dream log cabin in the Green Mountains of Vermont. The episode begins with an introduction to the couple, Shannon and Darren, who are tired of living in a hectic city and desire a slower-paced, nature-filled lifestyle. They hope to find a cabin that offers peace and quiet while still being close enough to civilization for work and social activities.

The couple's real estate agent takes them on a tour of three potential cabins in the Green Mountains. Each cabin has its unique features and drawbacks, which Shannon and Darren weigh carefully. The first cabin is a spacious log home with a modern interior that is move-in ready. The second cabin is a smaller, rustic cabin tucked away in the woods, which would require a lot of work but offers the opportunity for customization. Finally, the third cabin, the Green Mountains Dream Cabin, is a blend of modern and rustic features that immediately captivates the couple.

The Green Mountains Dream Cabin is an impressive four-bedroom, four-bathroom cabin, built with cedar logs from Montana, and features an expansive deck and a breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains. It has a modern, open concept interior with high vaulted ceilings and large windows that allow natural light to fill the space. The kitchen is spacious and has top-of-the-line appliances, making it perfect for the couple's love of cooking. The cabin also has a finished basement, which is ideal for guests or entertaining.

Darren and Shannon are enamored with the Green Mountains Dream Cabin and envision themselves entertaining friends and family in the spacious living room or enjoying early morning coffee on the deck. However, the cabin is slightly over their budget, and they must consider whether it's worth making alterations to make it more affordable or letting it go and search for another cabin.

The couple's real estate agent suggests they consider splitting the cost of the cabin with another couple, but the idea doesn't appeal to them. They ultimately realize that the Green Mountains Dream Cabin is perfect for them, and they decide to make an offer.

The episode also highlights the lifestyle of living in a log cabin in the Green Mountains, including taking hikes through the woods, enjoying local outdoor activities and farmers markets, and experiencing the small-town charm of nearby communities.

As the episode comes to a close, Shannon and Darren anxiously await to hear back about their offer on the Green Mountains Dream Cabin. While they admit that the cabin is a bit of a splurge, they feel that the peace, quiet, and beautiful scenery provided by the cabin are worth it. With the possibilities that this cabin could bring, this episode showcases the beauty and lifestyle of owning a log cabin in the Green Mountains.
