Of course, all kinds of other cabins work well for vacation homes, from A-frame designs to cozy chalets and even coastal cottages. But there's something so appealing about a rustic log cabin. Perhaps it's that it feels rugged and earthy. Many of these homes work well on sloping lots since they have walkout basements and patios.

• Spacious porches and balconies
