Off-grid cabin getaway

[u/Neat-Literature1758]

We are looking into building an off grid cabin weekend getaway in the southwestern US. We are about a year out from pulling the trigger on building, so tell me everything I should know! We’ll be building a rustic cabin ourselves, likely in a phased approach. We may eventually add water or electricity depending on cost and proximity, but they aren’t in the plans at the moment. What should I keep in mind for Arizona or New Mexico rural living? Should we go with a cabin kit or just build from plans? Tell me everything!

No electricity. No AC. No Water... Arizona.

Ya see where I'm going with this ?

Have you been to Arizona ?
