"Set on a private 2.5-acre lot in South Jersey, this three-bedroom A-frame feels like a world away with a wood-fired hot tub, Scandinavian-style plywood interior, spacious modern kitchen, Sonos system, two firepits, and private river access for fishing, crabbing, and kayaking; note there are no nearby food options so planning ahead is recommended." - Alex Erdekian
"“In a time where coveted upstate New York outposts can seem few and far between, this A-frame cabin offers an unexpected respite from the city,” says writer and digital marketing professional Shanika Hillocks. With room for six guests across three bedrooms, the refurbished South Jersey property feels refreshingly isolated—there isn’t a neighbor in sight. Huge windows fill the space with natural light, highlighting interiors done up with California redwood. Other modern touches include a hot tub, commercial-grade kitchen, and Sonos sound system, making it a dream rental for, in Hillocks’ view, a romantic reset, a family-friendly getaway, or a “commune-like experience for your pod.”" - Ashlea Halpern
"Philadelphians searching for a restorative getaway should look no further than the Lokal A-Frame, located less than an hour from Philly by car in Cumberland County, New Jersey. The homegrown Lokal hotel group, run by husband-and-wife creatives Chad and Courtney Ludeman, introduced the area to a new style of lodging when they opened their first hotel in Old City in 2017. The “invisible service” hotel—one that replaces an onsite staff with technology and intuitive design—is perfect for these times of social distancing. And the three-bed, two-bath A-Frame vacation home, set on a wooded 2.5 acres, takes it to the next level. Besides groceries, the home is stocked with all the necessities for a secluded break. Fire up dinner in the Big Green Egg grill, screen a movie on the 8-foot projection screen, soak in the wood-fired hot tub, and take your morning coffee (made with locally brewed beans you can find in the kitchen) to the private river beach. In the unlikely event cabin fever hits, break the off-the-grid illusion with a visit to the nearby East Point Lighthouse, or with a scenic drive to one of the New Jersey shore towns. Avalon, Stone Harbor, and Cape May are only a short drive away."
