The Escape Cabin is a tiny house on wheels. Due to this unique feature, it is categorized as an RV rather than a house in spite of how it looks. Of course, thanks to its compact size, it is only 14 feet wide with a total floorspace of 400 square feet, it is easily mobile.
Inspired by the small lakeside resort called Canoe Bay, the Escape Cabin was born after a number of visitors started asking for their own versions of the carefully constructed cabins. Dan George, the owner, says, "I spent quite a few years figuring out how to put Canoe Bay in a box, so to speak, so we could give it to people." It is designed by architect Kelly Davis of SALA.
