The 16 Best A-Frame Cabin Rentals on Airbnb & VRBO

We love a classic A-Frame. You love a classic A-Frame. We all love a classic A-Frame.

This beloved triangle emerged in the USA in the 1930s in much the same style as it exists today- an affordable, easy-to-build vacation rental for escaping the madness of a 9-5, or a busy city life. The economic boom of post-World War II saw a rise in prominence for the A-Frame, and after its fall from grace in the 70's, the consumerism of the 80s and 90s, it's back today, and with a vengeance.

As we reconnect with nature, live smaller and more consciously, A-Frame houses are the perfect place to do all those things. So, we've scoured the internet and found the 16 best A-Frame cabin rentals across a dozen US states today. Scroll on and enjoy!

PS - want to learn more about A-Frame homes? Here's a big old feature on the history of the A shaped vacation home. It's a wild ride!
