Adirondack Log Cabin, fun to build, even more fun to play in!

We selected this plan because it looked just like a log cabin right out of the Adirondacks here in NYS. Another fellow and myself built it for the day care center associated with our church. We followed the plans and really had no trouble. We especially appreciated the descriptive narrative and many pictures which guided us throughout the building process. The children at the center enjoyed watching us build it. However, they enjoy playing in it, even more.
