Five Magnificent Cabins for Your Fall Radar

Look at you. Sitting there in some kind of structure that’s not a cabin. Not only is it not a cabin, it doesn’t even have a putting green in the basement or a stone waterfall in the shower. This stops now. Witness: the only cabin rentals that matter this fall.

Indoor-Golfing-Because Cabin
FOR THE PERPETUAL GOLFER

Indoor-Golfing-Because Cabin

The Abode: A waterfront cedar log lodge that’s properly prepared for fall via a hot tub on the screened-in porch, a wood-burning stove and heated bathroom floors.
The Bonus: The Golf Room. By which we mean the basement floor that’s a fully functioning putting green. Inside: 1. Outside: 0.

A Floating Hot Tub in the Trees
FOR THE SEASONED HOT-TUBSMAN

A Floating Hot Tub in the Trees

The Abode: It’s nice. Really nice. But it’s actually not all that important right now, because you won’t be spending much time in there. See below.
The Bonus: There’s a walkway attached to the house that leads to an elevated, covered deck with a hot tub and fireplace on it. Told you.

All of the Entertainment Is in Here
FOR THE CINEPHILE

All of the Entertainment Is in Here

The Abode: One of those cabins with that impossibly-perched-on-the-side-of-a-mountain look.
The Bonus: A movie theater with a 100-inch screen, surround sound and leather seats. Not to mention arcade games like Ms. Pac-Man, antique soda machines and a Junior Mints dispenser. We made that last part up.

Should You Be into Waterfall Showers...
FOR THE FAUX-NATURE LOVER

Should You Be into Waterfall Showers...

The Abode: A majestic-looking riverfront lodge with antler chandeliers, covered porches, wet bars and fireplaces scattered throughout.
The Bonus: Go in the king master suite. Find the stone shower with an honest-to-God waterfall in it. Never leave.

Taking Over a Mountain with 39 Friends
FOR THE EXTROVERTED ADVENTURER

Taking Over a Mountain with 39 Friends

The Abode: Sorry, correction...
The Abodes: Four cabins spread across 12 acres that can all be booked together. They sleep 40.
The Bonus: Seven-person hot tubs, claw-foot pool tables and a meditation pond. Which you may need while vacationing with a group of 40.
