The Most Instagram-Worthy A-Frames On Airbnb
From rustic cabins to sleek farmhouse-style barns, there is no denying that A-frames are all the rage in the architecture world. The design is chic yet timeless, and there is something so cozy and comforting about an A-frame house. According to MasterClass, A-frames are typically found in rural areas, surrounded by vibrant green trees and forests. A-frame houses are stunning and unique residential structures in summer and winter.
A-frame buildings get their name from the specific architectural shape that resembles an "A." They are often two (and sometimes even three) stories tall and can range from very large to small and compact in size. If you're looking to spend the weekend in a cozy and secluded A-frame, Airbnb is a reliable and easy-to-navigate resource for finding the best homes. These Instagram-worthy A-frames are some of the coziest cabins on Airbnb, perfect for adventures, making great memories, and taking stunning photos!
