We've all got Spring Break fever here at MLS- everyone is planning their weekend getaways and day dreaming about a vacation home away from home. Lately, we're fascinated with all the creative bunk room designs Pinners have shared on Pinterest. We are so inspired, we created our own page here.
Don't cringe till you have looked! These bunk rooms are not at all like your average summer camp digs. No sticky bug spray or mosquito nets here... These bunk rooms break all the rules.

Don't cringe till you have looked! These bunk rooms are not at all like your average summer camp digs. No sticky bug spray or mosquito nets here... These bunk rooms break all the rules.
1. Bunk Beds Aren't Just for Kids Anymore
Make your built in bunk beds a perfect fit for any age with queen size bunks! Upgrade your linens and add individual lighting for your late night readers...
2. Ditch the Attached Ladders
2. Ditch the Attached Ladders
We're not all as nimble and quick as we were in our summer camp days. Let's ditch those attached ladders and try something new- built in steps, or even a much less steeply angled ladder, are a great option for making your bunk rooms adult-friendly. Now, wouldn't you be much more likely to relax and read in your bunk if you didn't have to be monkey to get there?
3. More Bunks, More Friends!
3. More Bunks, More Friends!
Want to host more family, and friends who are like family at your vacation home? Bunk rooms aren't just for one or two kids anymore. You can have a dormitory style quest room with queen size built in bunks. Kind of like a spend the night party, right? Individual lighting is great for those with later bedtimes, or a trip to the kitchen for a midnight snack you don't want to share....
4. More Space for Kids of All Ages

Another plus about bunk beds- they leave much more room for activities! A bunk room with a theme can be a great place for little ones to play, teens to hang out, or for us grown up who want a weekend away with just the girls. With all the extra space in the center of the room you can add a fan for optimum napping, a cool drum for more diffuse lighting, or a funky chandelier for extra flair.

We all need our own space to unwind, maybe a bunk tucked into a nook is just for you. Let's get real, you can't get comfy on a window seat, so don't waste the space! Make a space that is truly comfy and truly "you." Do you want shelves and a well placed light for reading? Windows to enjoy the view? or quiet place to draw the curtains and just nap? Check out our Bunk Room page on Pinterest for more ideas and come see us at MLS for lighting for your get-away space.
