Fully modernized historic log cabin near Giants Ridge

This 18x32 hand-hewn log cabin was dismantled and moved from a neighboring farmstead to the Green Gate property in 2016. We added an upper floor, super-insulated shell and a rustic exterior of weathered, circle-sawn planking and rusty metal roofing. The mix of log construction, custom metalwork, and "hand-crafted everything" create a truly breathtaking architectural experience.

An open-concept main floor provides ample space for cooking and lounging and features a large custom kitchen and slab wood dining table, log walls, large picture windows with forest views, in-floor heat, A/C, and of course a beautiful woodstove for those chilly winter days.

The upper floor includes a laundry center and two master bedrooms, complete with queen beds, vintage furnishings, circle-sawn oak flooring, vaulted lodgepole ceilings, and bathrooms adorned with custom slate tilework and hand-crafted cabinetry.

in the warmer months, guests enjoy the wrap-around porch and screen enclosure for bug-free lounging, or swinging in hammocks under the towering pines.

Artful Craftsmanship

The Mesabi Trail is very near and the landscape was splashed in autumn color. It was quiet, exceptionally clean and a place to appreciate if you have any sense of style in architecture. What’s not to love about it as we pinch ourselves.
