Each cabin was discovered in various parts of Virginia & West Virginia, dismantled, then reassembled on the farm with loving care and attention over a period of 30 years. The cabins, dating from c1775 to early 1900's, are unique with a variety of add-ons, ie: sitting porches, back decks, upstairs loft bedrooms, heating/ac and perhaps a screened-in porch.
