The Log Cabin

The log cabin is of the 1850 period of this area.  It was constructed in 1982 from the best logs of three cabins of the area. These cabins were located on Elliot Rd., Eiterman Rd., and one located on another unknown site. 

The cabin size in 495 sq. ft. of construction.  The cabin has a wood floor downstairs, and an enclosed stairway leading to an upstairs bedroom.  Both rooms of the cabin are equipped for pioneer living.  All cooking was done in the fireplace using cast iron utensils.  Clothes were sewn in the main room.  Quilts were made, wool was spun, milk was churned, herbs were hung from the ceiling, and all other activities necessary were performed in the living room.  Behind the cabin is the out house.  It is a WPA outhouse (Works Progress Administration) and is a classic and vanishing architectural wooden building.  It is now inoperable due to a more modern convenience known as a "restroom".
