Old Log Cabins ~ Dr Thomas Walker State Park
Log Cabins have been around since, well,… Who knows how long? They are a simple type of log house and go together fairly quick. A log cabin and a log house are truly two different structures.
Log cabins were normally on or two room structures with sometimes a second story and they were very not complicated structures. Log houses can be more structured with hand hewn logs where the cabins were typically built with round logs in order to go together fast.

I lived here for about eight years, and owned it for about fifteen years after I built it in 1976 with local fieldstone and oak logs I cut, peeled and notched on the site, working alone with hand tools. It had no plumbing, I carried water from a nearby spring, and I heated it in winter with about half a cord of wood a week which I cut and burned in the open fireplace. Eventually I moved into Asheville and had to sell it, but it was a large part of my life, and I miss it more with each passing year.
