This early log cabin

Found by us in eastern Kentucky. Our company began doing a professional evaluation of the abandoned old log structure & determined it to be salvageable.

The Kentucky cabin

Built with large hand hewn poplar logs harvested by the early settlers. The early log cabin builders used half dovetail corner notches on this cabin. All of the old log cabin door & window openings appear to be original.

The old log cabin

Even the stone fireplaces where suitable for reclamation.

Documentation was carefully preformed

After the tagging and drawings the deconstruction began. The Kentucky Dog Trot Cabin was then shipped back to our yard where it was stored properly & put into inventory. The cabin didn't have to wait long for a new home. It was soon sold for an early log cabin construction project in Gatlinburg, TN.

Site Location

The scenic Dunn Creek will be the back drop for the log cabin construction site.
