Completely renovated "Log Cabin" style house while keeping all its history charm including a 3-year old addition integrated into the same time period. It feels like a museum but includes all the current comforts to make it more day-to-day friendly. The original part of the house was built between 1790-1800 with a later kitchen addition and third spacious addition in 2022, it's like stepping back in time.
