Who We Are

At Postcard Cabins, we believe in a world where free time is a right and a ritual. To help make space in the world for free time, Postcard Cabins builds tiny cabins, places them in the middle of nature, and rents them out by the night to people looking to disconnect and recharge. You can look forward to working in a collaborative, open, and inclusive environment. We respect each other and our guests, we tell the truth, and we hold ourselves accountable. We see every day as an opportunity to do better and embrace honest feedback as a gift. At Postcard Cabins, we cultivate a safe work environment where we value learning from failure as much as success.
