An A-frame structure consists of two similarly sized beams arranged in a 45 degree angle or less, meeting at the top creating a peak. This style of home has been surging over the past few years as vacation rentals and “glamping” spots around the world. There are many kits for sale to create your own A-frame home or retreat in sizes ranging from shed to chalet.

If you’re interest is “peaked” (sorry) and you’d like to stay in an A-frame structure, check out the Lokal A-Frame Cabin in Maurice River, New Jersey

Chad and Courtney Ludeman, husband-and-wife team and creators of Lokal Hotels have poured their hearts into each property making Philadelphia and New Jersey more attractive travel destinations. Each location is filled with locally sourced furniture, accessories and amenities, from coffee and soap to knives and mugs. If you can’t make it to the east coast this year visit the stay lokal website to bring Lokal Hotels to your home.

The description below is directly from the Lokal Hotel site.

“For our first foray into boutique vacation homes, we chose an A-Frame cabin located on 2.5 quiet acres in South Jersey with frontage on the Maurice River. The cabin is located about 50 minutes from Philly and 20-30 minutes to many of the popular shore towns of Southern Jersey.

This cabin was built in the 60’s from California Redwood and we completely overhauled it with a Scandinavian Modern interior design. The building was also fully insulated and had all mechanicals updated for modern comfort.

The home has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and sleeps a maximum of 8 fine folks. Perfect for two families or a group of friends. There is a commercial kitchen, 2 fire pits, a huge rear deck with wood-fired hot tub and a makeshift private beach along the river.”
