Unconventional, colorful, and rustic, Rainbows and Dragons Hike Inn is made up of two unique multi-level dwellings nestled into a lush hillside garden created by the owner, a longtime Big Sur artist/carpenter/gardener/resident.

The houses (Rainbow House and Dragon house) are designed to be places where guests can truly experience the Big Sur lifestyle without commercial gloss. The surrounding environment is totally natural: spring water, ocean and sage-scented air, and amazing views above the redwood canopy filled with hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies.

The property is reached via a steep zizag trail through the redwoods, so bring good hiking shoes and be prepared to carry your personal supplies.

Intimate, simple, sometimes even a little primitive, the cabin is an American icon. Its appeal is both as a basic form of shelter and as a treasury of feelings, sensations and memories of family and friends. More than just a structure, the cabin is a way of life. Our cabin is located on a twenty acres piece of land in a remote meadow 7500 feet high surrounded by the Sierra National Forest. When we discovered Far Meadow, this classic American log cabin was already here. So we gave it a face lift, modernizing the roof and updated the interior. It's close to the A-frame cabin, but in a world of its own. Visit our Far-Meadow.com website here.

This modern A-frame is in a beautiful remote location in the Sierra National Forest, California at an elevation of 7000 feet. Fourteen miles above Bass Lake on the Sierra Vista Scenic Byway, this property is surrounded by amazing meadows, secret swimming holes, and miles and miles of undiscovered hiking trails. Your own private Yosemite without the crowds. Visit our Far-Meadow.com website here.

Like an insect warming itself in the sun, our cabin sits in the underbrush at the water’s edge. Near Deception Pass on the Swinomish Indian Reservation and set amid the old growth trees, the house floats on steel beams within the coniferous canopy. Transparent glazing provides protection from the weather yet opens the building completely to its immediate surroundings and to views of Hope island, Whidbey Island, the Olympic Mountains and beyond.

Opening into a large open living room with wood burning stove, as well as electric heat, a large family dining table divides the living and gourmet kitchen areas.
