That's not really a viable option, you need to be able to wash your clothes, and make your dinner, and cool your food, and have light to see.
Sure it's possible to reduce it, but there is a limit where it becomes extremely inconvenient.

    LEDs use very little power, with the cabin in the woods idea I would think its fairly safe to say a log fire is used for cooking, same thing to heat some water for cleaning. Fridge really doesn't use much power if you look for something energy efficient, or just don't have one. Its not like you can't live without it.

    I would have thought saying cabin in the woods kinda implies not having some things and living a simpler lifestyle?
