Furnishings Investment
Every cabin is different, and your furnishings investment will depend on the size of your property, number of guests, existing furniture and the level of transformation desired. As a general guideline:
- Listing Refresh — furnishings & décor typically begin around $4,000–$8,000 for smaller cabins and increase based on property size.
- Cabin Upgrade — most properties invest approximately $16,000–$50,000+ in new furniture, bedding, rugs, lighting, artwork and décor.
- Complete Cabin Transformation — furnishings investments typically begin around $25,000 and can exceed $100,000 for larger luxury cabins.
During your initial consultation, we’ll help establish a realistic furnishings budget based on your property, rental goals and the areas where we believe your investment will have the greatest visual impact.
Furniture, décor, freight, delivery, installation and procurement are separate from our design fees.
