Southern Cross: A Crossroads for Rest & Adventure

Welcome to The Southern Cross, the quintessential tiny home experience at beautiful Hi Saw Gap!

Perched on a cliff's edge, our home offers endless views over untouched natural beauty. It's a cozy, romantic, and adventurous getaway designed to connect you with the stunning mountain scenery. Located just a half-mile from Stumphouse Tunnel, Issaqueena Falls, Yellow Branch Falls hiking trail, and the World class Stumphouse Mountain Bike Park.

Your private outdoor space is the heart of the experience, designed to draw you outside. Unwind in the glass-enclosed shelter, gather around the propane fire pit, or grill a meal on the charcoal BBQ. A covered bistro deck features an outdoor kitchen and prep station, perfect for enjoying a meal with a view.

Unique tiny home experience in a converted shipping container

This offers a memorable and picture-worthy stay that stands out from typical cabins or hotel rooms.

The Neighborhood

Adventure is right at your doorstep. We are located just a half-mile from incredible local attractions, including the historic Stumphouse Tunnel, the beautiful Issaqueena Falls, the Yellow Branch Falls hiking trail, and the world-class Stumphouse Mountain Bike Park.

Breathtaking cliff-edge views with extensive outdoor amenities

Guests can enjoy stunning sunrises and sunsets from the private deck, fire pit area, or glass-enclosed shelter, providing a deep connection with nature.

Getting Around

A personal vehicle is highly recommended to access our property and explore the wealth of natural attractions in the surrounding area.

You will have private access to all spaces within The Southern Cross area, including the tiny home and its dedicated outdoor amenities. The only shared spaces with the adjacent suite are the main entry gate and the parking area.

Host nearby to assist if needed

The 160 sq ft interior is a cleverly designed studio that is cozy, cute, and functional. Featuring warm, wood-paneled walls and a compact kitchenette, it has everything you need and nothing you don't. It's the perfect way to test drive the tiny home lifestyle!

Privacy: The interior is a single, open studio space. To maximize the area, the shower and toilet are partitioned with an accordion-style door. We recommend this home for solo travelers or couples who are comfortable sharing close quarters.

Adjacent Suite: This unit is located next to our other rental, The Valhalla Sky Suite. If you are traveling with a larger group, you can book both suites to accommodate up to 5 guests total.

A Note on Management: This property is under new management. While Airbnb reviews do not transfer with a sale, we are proud to continue the legacy of this beloved property, which previously maintained a 4.98-star rating with over 450 reviews. You can book with confidence!

All are welcome!
