Little River Cabin
Little River Cabin is a cabin house plan with wraparound porch, offering 1,187 sq. ft., 2/3 bedrooms, and 2 1/2 baths. A strong fit for screened porch, stone fireplace, and small lot.
Mountain PlanHow I designed this plan.
I designed the Little River Cabin as a 2 to 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath small cabin that gives you 1,187 square feet across two stories in a package just 34 feet wide. With a wraparound porch, a screened porch, and a vaulted great room with stone fireplace, this little cabin delivers everything you need for lakefront or mountain living in a compact footprint.
The main floor holds 896 square feet with a vaulted great room that makes the open layout feel spacious and welcoming. A stone fireplace anchors the living space and becomes the heart of the home on cool evenings. The layout is simple and efficient, with kitchen, dining, and living in one flowing space. Upstairs, 291 square feet adds a bedroom with a vaulted ceiling that gives the upper level its own character.
No wasted hallways, no unnecessary walls. A wraparound porch and screened porch give you covered outdoor living that stretches around the cabin. At just 34 feet wide by 44 feet 4 inches deep with no garage, this plan fits small and narrow lots where most plans cannot break ground. The compact footprint keeps construction costs predictable and the build timeline fast.
It is the kind of cabin that works as a weekend retreat, a rental property, or a year-round home for someone who values simplicity. The Little River Cabin plan is available for $1,495. For more small cabins, see Fish Camp Cabin, Hatchet Creek, Black Mountain Cottage, and Cook Cottage.

Before you buy.
What is included in the Little River Cabin house plan set?+
Each plan set includes dimensioned floor plans for all levels, front, side, and rear elevations at 1/4" scale with notes and dimensions, foundation plan (basement standard; slab and crawlspace available for an additional fee), and roof plan. Available as a PDF plan set ($1,495) or editable CAD files ($1,950). Electrical plans are not included because they are customer-specific and finalized on site with your builder and electrician after framing.
Can the Little River Cabin plan be modified?+
Yes. Modifications are one of the most common services we provide. Our in-house design team handles all modifications directly. Common changes include adjusting bedroom count, resizing rooms, changing exterior materials, or adapting for a specific lot. Typical turnaround is 2 to 4 weeks. Contact Max Fulbright Designs at (770) 301-4214 or [email protected] for a free consultation and quote.
Does the Little River Cabin plan require a structural engineer's stamp?+
Stock plans do not include a professional engineer's stamp. Many US jurisdictions require a licensed engineer in your state to review and stamp the plans before permit submission. Check with your local building department before purchasing. This is a standard industry practice and is not unique to Max Fulbright Designs.
Who designed the Little River Cabin house plan?+
The Little River Cabin house plan was drawn personally by Max Fulbright Sr., the founder of Max Fulbright Designs. Max is a Georgia Institute of Technology-trained engineer who has designed and personally built more than 500 custom homes since founding the firm in 1990. Every plan in the Max Fulbright Designs catalog is drawn by Max himself.
Can I build the Little River Cabin house plan in any US state?+
Yes. Max Fulbright Designs has delivered more than 12,000 plans to homeowners and builders in all 50 US states and Canada. The Little River Cabin plan is drawn to general residential construction standards that work in most US jurisdictions, though local building codes vary and should be reviewed with your builder before construction.
