Our current project you see in front is the bath/shower house. ) I can’t tell you how disGUSTING it was, but we found treasures like the chair upstairs, the ironing board, and items on the walls and cupboards amongst the piles of Asian beetles and mouse chewings. This cabin was refurbished in 2020 from the original homestead’s summer kitchen (where food was prepared to keep the house from getting too warm).Īlthough it may have been easier to demolish and start over, Julie convinced Craig that the history was worth it. We need more and better fire pits and intend to have at least one more cabin- perhaps created from a refurbished corn crib? We are continually working to groom it, and eventually, hope to better level the drive and sites and cover them with gravel. This area was overgrown and filled with rubbish, but still had a great deal of suitable plants hidden in the raspberries. That home was transported across 95 on Davis road to become an Amish home.
This was where the original homestead stood (firepit area). Since then it has been a labor of love to make it everything we dream.Ī campground suitable for horseback riding was the goal for W15266. We purchased the home and 40 acres in 2018. The woods, fields, wildlife, and house (created almost entirely from the lumber harvested from the land) drew us in. The first time we viewed this property, we knew we were home.
