Davis Hollow Cabin
The Davis Hollow Cabin is one of two historic facilities along the North Country Trail. Volunteers manage and maintain the cabin, devoting their time and energy in order to preserve the cabin’s history for future generations to enjoy.
Construction began on the cabin before the start of the American Revolution. The hand-hewn logs and hand-carved stone are superb examples of pioneer construction. Located behind the Davis Hollow Marina at present-day Moraine State Park, the cabin served as a summer home for Mrs. Katherine Davis and her sister, Miss Eleanor Holt, before the park’s development. Today, the North Country Trail Association (NCTA) leases the cabin from the park.
Sharing a local treasure from all sides and angles.
Always in love with stone chimneys
Got a good look at the hand hewn Logs as we climbed to the back.
And found an inviting back porch
Shuttered windows - winters can be harsh in the hollow.
And unique shutter hooks
We will be going back someday with a picnic basket in hand
What a treasure Gayle. It's fabulous to find a beautiful building with a rich history so well maintained. Thanks for sharing this week and please hurry back.
