Absarokee Cabin – It’s the Details That Count
When picking your dream cabin, it’s the details that count.
We’re really proud of our cabins here at Trailside Structures. All the items bearing our name are hand-built to last a lifetime, here in the USA, to ensure our customers get quality and value. That’s true whether you purchase a tiny house, shed, garage, chicken coop, kennel, or our rustic outdoor furniture. But if there’s one product line that holds a special place in our hearts, it’s our cabins. We offer a half dozen different cabin styles, each with special, customizable layouts to suit your different needs, with distinct sizing and exteriors, materials, and a variety of options, so you can pick the series that best suits you.
And that’s the thing–the little things–we wanted to talk to you about today. Because we know that when picking your dream cabin, it’s the details that count.
We Work With You
Trailside Structures looks forward to working with you to build that special place. So when you call us to inquire about buying a cabin from us, we’ll ask you a series of questions about what you’re looking for. Everything from the size of the parcel you plan to build on, to the size cabin you want, to what type of spaces you prefer. That helps us point you to a cabin series that suits your needs, or you can just tell us which one catches your eye, based on the different range of exteriors, layouts, standard features, and options. But our process doesn’t stop there. In fact, that’s where things get interesting.
Trailside Prefab Means Custom Workmanship
Once you’ve chosen a series you like, you can stick with the standard features for that style, or we can begin the customization process with you. You can pick flooring, a roof color, exterior colors or stained trim and beams. We can talk you through different options on doors, windows, closet/storage space, and bathroom conveniences. We can even talk about porches, loft/dormer spaces, and electrical utility features. It’s all up to you. You can choose to keep your cabin as is or tailor these elements to suit your needs.
Either way, we promise you won’t be disappointed with the service or product you’ll receive. We can help you with all of your design needs and when the build is ready, we will deliver your cabin or tiny house to your location. All you have to do is make sure the site is ready!

This is the ‘back view’ of the cabin exterior, pending the installation of a back deck on-site. The customer chose a sliding patio door option for easy access to her deck.
An interior view from the Absarokee’s Loft highlights the floor plan including a kitchen and living area, upgraded beam stain, kitchen with a peninsula feature, and optional chimney kit & hearth. Our client chose Trailside Structure’s luxury vinyl plank clip & lock flooring in ‘Biscayne Oak’, as well as the lovely ‘Shadow Brown’ stain on the beams.
