About us

Cabin Living was founded in 2017 by Tatiana Belkina and Truls Furuseth with one clear mission: to transform the way vacation homes are rented – making it easier, more profitable, and more enjoyable for both owners and guests. Rather than relying on a single platform, we combine listings across the largest national and international booking sites with our own website.

Each property we manage is treated individually. We create tailored listings and ensure they’re visible on all the right channels. This means maximum exposure, solid booking coverage, and better income for property owners – without any of the day-to-day hassle.

Our very first partnership was on Sjusjøen, with local trail manager Johannes Haukaassveen. Since then, we’ve expanded across Norway and now also offer vacation rentals abroad and city apartments in Oslo. Most recently, we launched a corporate cabin concept – making it possible for companies to offer cabin stays to employees, without needing to own or manage the properties themselves.

Our Vision

We don’t just rent out properties – we help create lasting memories. With excellent customer service, smooth check-in and check-out, and clear communication, we ensure guests can relax and focus on what matters: enjoying their stay.

For property owners, it’s not just about income. We take care of everything so they can spend their time and money on what truly matters to them.

Truls Furuseth

The founder

Truls Furuseth is the founder of Cabin Living and has extensive experience in sales, business development and entrepreneurship. He has more than 12 years of experience in short-term rental of holiday homes and has developed strong insight into what it takes to succeed with rentals – for both Norwegian and international guests.

Over the years he has become very familiar with most cabin and mountain destinations across Norway, combining his business background with a genuine passion for cabin life and great guest experiences. The goal of Cabin Living is to make renting out your cabin simple and secure for owners, while ensuring guests receive professional service from booking to check-out.

If you are considering renting out your cabin, switching rental management companies, or simply want to understand how short-term rental works in practice, feel free to get in touch for a non-binding conversation. Many cabin owners are surprised by how much administration and follow-up is required – often at all hours of the day – if they manage everything themselves.

Whether you plan to handle the rentals on your own or prefer a partner to manage the entire process, I am happy to share my experience and advice.
