'''Cranky's Cabin''' is the home of [[Cranky Kong]]. It is made out of a barrel, with an opening carved in the side for an entrance. The building has a stone-coated metal roof, which a long chimney stems out from. A neon sign of the [[Nintendo]] logo is hanging above the entrance, and a [[Giant Banana]] is sitting to the left of the cabin. Located to the right is a large crate appearing to be a [[animal crate|Rambi Crate]], on which a silhouetted emblem of [[Rambi]]'s face is printed. There is an official artwork showing Donkey Kong and Diddy at Cranky's Cabin. It appears to be during the evening, as evidenced from the orange sky. The scene shows a crate reading "2L84ME" (too late for me) in red text, later included on the [[Barrel Cannon]]s in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. | '''Cranky's Cabin''', titled '''[[Cranky's Hut]]''' in the [[Game Boy Advance]] [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|remake]], is the home of [[Cranky Kong]].

In the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|second remake]], Cranky's Cabin takes place indoors. It has a few apparent background details that reference a few other Rare games, including the mask of {{iw|jiggywikki|Mumbo Jumbo}} from the ''[[jiggywikki:Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' games and the mounted head of Sabre Wulf, the main villain of ''{{wp|Sabreman}}''. | In the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|second remake]], Cranky's Cabin takes place indoors.

The | In the [[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|''Donkey Kong Country'' television series]], Cranky's Cabin, instead of being located on the ground, is high in the trees, possibly in the television series equivalent of [[Tree Top Town]]. The appearance of Cranky's Cabin was also altered in the cartoon series; it was made rounded and larger and had a variety of booby traps located near it, which could be activated to ward off enemies. The Cabin's interior has a safe located in the center of the hut, and unlike the games also has a piano and potion making equipment. | ||
The safe within the cabin is the holding place of the [[Crystal Coconut]] in the show, which [[Donkey Kong]] spends much of his time guarding. On several occasions, [[King K. Rool]] is able to sneak into the cabin and get the Coconut, and other times, he is able to trick, or even use magic, to get someone else to go in and get it for him (such as when he uses the love potion to get [[Candy Kong]] to go in and steal it for him in "[[A Thin Line Between Love & Ape]]"). The walkway to the cabin is booby-trapped with [[Trigger Barrel]]s that when jumped on, send anyone unfortunate enough to be standing on it flying or falling. This is featured in several episodes, and is often used to thwart K. Rool from stealing the coconut. | The safe within the cabin is the holding place of the [[Crystal Coconut]] in the show, which [[Donkey Kong]] spends much of his time guarding.
