This cabin has seen five generations of my husband's family enjoying it each summer. Local craftsmen designed and built it to replace the rustic cabins that preceded it nearby. It still boasts no electricity, though the ice box has been replaced by a fuel-run replacement, as has the wood stove. There is no heat or a/c, and little privacy because of the open layout. But it contains the memories of joy for countless people over the past 100 years or so. We stay in a more modern cabin nearby, but my husband remembers staying at the Big House when he was a little boy. We love its simple lines and practical beauty.
