Testing the Future of Hospitality: Bringing Scandinavian "MyCabin" Prefabs to the Green Mountains

There is something transformative about the Vermont landscape—the way the mist clings to the pines in the morning and the silence of a snow-covered valley. When we began planning our new resort project, we knew that traditional hotel "blocks" wouldn't cut it. We wanted our guests to feel immersed in the woods, not insulated from them.

That search led us to MyCabin.


MyCabin is a prefab builder that has perfected the art of the Scandinavian retreat. We are currently in the deep-testing phase of these units to see if they are the right fit for our Vermont expansion. Here is a look behind the scenes at why we’re excited and how we’re putting them to the test.

Why MyCabin?


The "MyCabin" philosophy aligns perfectly with the Vermont ethos: efficiency, sustainability, and a deep respect for the outdoors. Their flagship model, the My Milla, offers a lofted sleeping nook and massive floor-to-ceiling windows that turn the Vermont forest into living wallpaper.

But for a resort, the real magic is in their modular cluster system. Instead of one large building, we can create private "villages" for our guests:

The Main Suite: A My Milla for sleeping and dining.

The Zen Office: A My Kalmus for the "work-from-anywhere" traveler who needs a quiet, glass-walled studio.

The Private Spa: A My Galia wood-fired sauna for a truly Nordic wellness experience.

The Vermont "Stress Test"


Vermont winters are legendary, and "pretty" isn't enough—a cabin has to be a fortress. Our team is currently evaluating the MyCabin specs against the specific demands of our site:

Thermal Performance: We are reviewing the R-49 insulation and "warm floor" systems to ensure guests stay cozy even when the thermometer hits -20°F in January.


Snow Load Analysis: With the steep-pitched roofs characteristic of Scandinavian design, we’re confirming these units can shed the heavy "Green Mountain" snow effortlessly.

Site Impact: One of our core values is land stewardship. Because these units are prefab, we can install them with minimal heavy machinery, preserving the old-growth trees and natural drainage of our resort site.

The Vision for Our Resort


Imagine checking into your cabin after a day of skiing or hiking. There’s no crowded lobby or noisy hallway. Instead, you follow a winding timber path to your private cluster. You light the wood-fired sauna, pour a glass of local cider, and watch the stars through a wall of glass.


By utilizing MyCabin’s precision-engineered units, we can bring this vision to life faster and more sustainably than traditional construction would ever allow. We aren't just building rooms; we’re building a bridge between modern luxury and the wild beauty of Vermont.

Stay tuned as we move from the testing phase to the first installations. The future of the Green Mountains is looking a lot more Scandi.
