My beloved "Cabin in the Woods" (pic8.co)

Located in the Western Maine Mountains. Cedar pole roof frame with 2x4 walls, shiplap and battens.

Built by Dad and me in the fall of 1977. 4 seasons of fun here!

Sleeps up to 8.

Overlooks a small brook trout filled pond (on the right) at the base of a tall mountain. The stream exiting the pond travels behind the camp along the back property line. We used the stationary part of a duo-pane sliding glass door mounted sideways as a picture window facing the pond and mountain.

No electricity. Refrigeration by an old 1940s Servel gas powered refrigerator. Gas lights, gas cook stove. Woodstove for heat. Uninsulated. One seater Outhouse to the left just out of picture view.

Oh, the stories I could tell...

Nice! Looks like you need a new deer skull - antlers have gone missing.

That was an old moose skull my dad found in the area about the time we built the camp. It turns out red squirrels and chipmunks love to chew on what was left of the antlers for the calcium. In late spring snowmobile riding it is easiest to find moose antler drops, I have a small collection. The horseshoe was dug up when we dug the outhouse pit. Apparently an old logging horse was buried there many years earlier.

Lol! Depending on where you live you probably have never seen one before. Understandable mistake. I'll let it slide this time...
