These are some of our past projects. They show our process of building and restoring antique hand hewn log structures.
BEAMER’S CABINS
The photos on this page show the cabin on its original site, staged at our facility and reconstructed on its new site.
THE LOOM HOUSE
This antique log cabin graces the hillside in Blowing Rock, NC.
It embodies the character and spirit of an authentic log cabin.
The photos on this page give an overview of the steps we take to restore an antique hand hewn cabin.
SALTVILLE
This 16′ x 24′ oak and poplar cabin, originally from Kentucky, now rests on a farm near Saltville, Virginia.
The photos on this page tell the story of how Old Log Cabins recovered, dismantled, staged at our Yadkinville yard, reconstructed and finished this antique log cabin.
THE SMOKEHOUSE
This Smokehouse is designed after the structures which historically were used to smoke and cure meats. This one is 11’x11′ and built from reclaimed pine logs with half-dovetailed notches. The photos on this page show the cabin staged at our facility and reconstructed on its new site.
Please visit our Facebook page for recent cabin restoration photos. We also post restored cabins for rent and for sale.
