# Tiny Rural Rentals The 'Getaway Cabins' Offer Compact Living for Forest Settings By M | Published 2016-07-14 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rural-rental References: [uncrate](http://uncrate.com/stuff/getaway-cabins/) & [getaway.house](https://getaway.house/) The 'Getaway Cabins' provide a simplistic and [small-scale rural rental for wilderness adventures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-nest-cabin) that encourages visitors to live minimally and enjoy their surroundings. The cabins are no bigger than 160-square feet making them big enough to house a bed for up to four guests, a small kitchen and a bathroom. Living in the woods often requires many to leave the necessities of home behind in exchange for the beautiful landscape and offline living. The 'Getaway Cabins' provide just that with a [small platform abode made of wood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/horizon-cabin) with a [dorm style interior](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiny-getaway). The beds are bunkbeds designed to be sophisticated enough for adults coupled with a toilet, shower and functioning kitchen. The cabin provides all the amenities needed for comfortable living, along with the freedom to embrace outdoor living. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.8/10 - Popularity: 88% | Activity: 79% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Minimalist Living:** The trend towards tiny rural rentals caters to the growing demand for minimalist living experiences in natural settings. - **Unplugged Getaways:** The 'Getaway Cabins' tap into the trend of consumers seeking unplugged and off-grid vacations to disconnect from technology and reconnect with nature. - **Micro Hospitality:** The compact and self-sufficient 'Getaway Cabins' reflect the emerging trend of micro-hospitality where travelers opt for smaller, more intimate accommodations for unique experiences. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Hospitality:** The hospitality industry can explore opportunities to create more compact and nature-centric accommodations that cater to the growing demand for minimalist living experiences. - **Tourism:** The tourism industry can leverage the trend of unplugged getaways by promoting and developing off-grid vacation destinations like the 'Getaway Cabins'. - **Real Estate:** The real estate industry has the potential for disruptive innovation by investing in and developing small-scale rural rentals for those seeking unique outdoor living experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Compact House Getaways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chipper-bnb.md) - [Compact Sustainable Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-cabana.md) - [Affordable Timber Cabins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nature-pod.md) - [Minimalist Stealthy Luxe Retreats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auto-cabin.md) - [Ultra-Efficient Tiny Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hirondelle-tiny-house.md) - [Waterside Retreat Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bora-boral.md) - [Captivating Modern Prefab Cabins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skali-backcountry-cubiod.md) - [Mountain Retreat Cabins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/horizon-cabin.md) - [Inversion Living Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiny-getaway.md)
