Do others hunt out of a traditional cabin in the woods. I built this one over the past 6 years. It is stack log (cord wood) construction in filled between a post and beam frame. Lots of recycled and hand built parts, material from my land or the local area.
Lets see what others have build and/or are using.

This cabin isn't mine, but I have a key and unlimited access, it's the only place I hunt, and I'm the only bowhunter who has permission to hunt there. The pot-belly stove inside is real nice in the late season!

I don't have a log cabin type camp but still enjoy it all year with the pond and woods.My grand kids have plenty room to explore,hunt,or fish.

Nice guys, keep them coming

All of them, so far, are very, very nice! This thread has just started I'm sure we're going to see a lot more beautiful places.
-
Ain't got much to show for 60 years but this is what Ma and I have to pass down to the kids.
There all bowhunters and this is the best place in the world to hang out. Best deer hunting in the state of Minnesota. Thank you God.

(http://i416.photobucket.com/albums/pp244/habujohn/P1020058.jpg) Here is my hunting camp. Have been building it since the 70's. Most of the wood with exception of posts came from trees on the property (83 acres) here in the Yooper.

The aged, weathered wood of a log cabin gets me every time. I spent many years hunting out of this Adirondack in the National forest, sharing it with the mice who slowly, along with the weather, ate the chestnut logs away.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v249/Killdeer/Hunting%20and%20Camp/Shelterandme04.jpg)
I have hunted there since 1986, and can understand the ache that one may have to hold a piece of country, to throw your heart unreservedly, headlong into a patch of woods, a section of mountain, a stretch of range. Something that would be in your psyche, your soul, when you were away, and calling. Open arms awaiting your return, that you may frolic together in youthful abandon like old friends.
Reunited old friends pick up the conversation where it left off, because they really have never been apart.

What a great subject... thank you to all guys who sent in pictures....

Beautiful words Killy...and such truth in them sister. I am going to my cabin this weekend with my growing son. I will speak these words to him as we shed hunt and chase squirrels with our longbows :)
Keep those pics (and words) coming everyone. ALL of these are beautiful.

Back in the 70's I found this cabin just below timberline in the mountains near Red Lodge Montana while I was elk hunting. I had packed in a small tent but when I found this old cabin, it became home for almost two weeks.
I wished it's walls could talk.

Here is the old home stead from my property, It was built in the early 40's when this area of the world was first opened up. I have never stayed in it, but might fix it up as a guest place. I have not done this due to a family of turkey vultures making this their home every spring and recently a family of cougars living there. I kind of think some times leaving things along for nature has more merit than trying to use or reuse.

My son and I built this little 12x16 cabin on our hunting property about 10 yrs ago.
My favorite place...
It's where I go to unwind and clean out
the "clutter" from my mind... It's magical how repeatedly watching the arc of an arrow in flight can do just that...
It's also where I hunt whitetails.
Enjoy the "tour"

Wow those are some nice ones. Ron awesome cabin and kadbow nice country. I enjoyed all so far from the tents and up. Its special to see these on this post, even with the cabin, I still tent hunt and enjoy that experience. Seeing these reminds me of different hunts from tenting to sleeping in the back of the truck to my cabin. My dad and brother have helped in every step of my build and that makes my cabin even more special, like many of you have eluded to about your builds.

This thread is great! I have been collecting materials for a few years to start building mine. Probably would have started it by now but haven't quite decided the size/design. I am using old wood and steel roofing and have windows from a house built in the 1800's. I want it to look like it's been around for a long time. This thread should help me to finalize my plans and hopefully start this summer.

I figured you would get a pic up of our place posted. When we built this I never dreamed of the memories that would follow.
The walls on this place DO talk! Especially at night.

You guys are lucky to have cabins in areas that the lowlifes don't bother.
Where I live the backwoods meth heads would first steal every thing out of the cabin, then burn it down to collect any metal they could find to sell for scrap.
The above happened to a friend of mine a month or so ago in southern, middle Tennessee.

This is our sanctuary, the home of mushroom hunting, turkey hunting, canoeing, 4th of July family get-togethers and of course my favorite, deer hunting in the fall.

Up coming projects are first a road and then maybe a dam or dugout. The elk, deer, moose and bear would just muddy up a pool.

Love the beagle Ron. Don't trust my youngest one enough to let her off leash. I have faith the older one would come back, though she cut a coyote tract in the snow once and wouldn't so much as lift her head when I was screaming her name five feet behind her.
Great, loving dogs, but darn stubborn. Must be why I love em so much, I see so much of me in them, hehe.

There is some great stuff on this thread. I am hoping to get my log cabin started shortly. It will take some time but it is good to work towards a goal that will bring such a wonderful reward. I have the spot, I have the trees, now I just have to get my butt to work.
To all - keep the pictures coming. This is a great thread. Thanks for sharing. It put a spark back in my plans.

Hummer, you MUST get the turkey buzzard house redone, that is exactly what I want!

Cabins seem to take on a life of there own over the years. The stories of how this deck came to being built or how a window or a door was placed are all part of the history. In 1975 when we put the original foundation down we had no idea that our little get away would become three times the original size, have a well, solar panels to run lights and a bathroom with a flush toliet and shower. After adding the solar last year we just had to put in a back screened in deck so we could sit out there in the summer when the skeeters could eat you alive. Camp life sure is fun.
-
Lee,
The last folks I let stay there Trashed the place and Stole my door and wenders! It ain't the Biggest cabin but we gots plans to add on another room or two...Now I got some more fishin to do and go invite a few more folk to stop and and see my cabin..I think I'll go send old DOC NOC an invitation! Tell ya all what I had the worst case of "Cabin Fever " today! :rolleyes:

[Down in Shrew hollow by old Armstrong creek
sits a little log cabin with wood floors that squeek
In the evening the soft glow of gas lights are there
while outside there are whitetails, gray wolves and black bear
Up on the oak ridge the acorns are falling
the bucks they are grunting, the does they are calling
so we slip in our stand and we wait for a buck
if the wind is just right all we'll need is some luck
Now come hang up your buck on our deer hanging rail
then sit by the fire and tell us your tale
for the stories of hunting is why we come here
to hear the stories and to hunt for the great whitetail deer]

Doc Noc,
So far you weren't the only fish that took the bait...Lee Hoots, 1/4/ away Fred,Yohan and not sure about Raging Water Yet? If he got it he could possible be making a road trip to my house as we speak? I keep peaking out my window seeing if anyone of you are pulling in the drive to :goldtooth: :D :p I better head to work before I get another case of "CABIN FEVER"...

Keith,
I gladly accept your hospitality. It would be an honor.
I will respond to the "Arrows" PM, this weekend. I have often thought of taking the same path.

Tell ya what, Keith... I'd take a full set of Lincoln Logs in the round container with tin ends and make some money you bet! The hours we wiled away pretending they were everything from motorcycles, jeeps, submarines, airplanes with the roof material for wings, etc, etc... it was all we had "hand-me-down". Endless hours of enjoyment for sure. I sure wish I still had a full set! They bring big $$$! :)

Guspup, what an awesome location!
Dan, a place to stay where the scenery changes every time you go out, can't get better than that. looks cozy too.

Have some work to do on it yet, but this is it.

Some of you may have seen it at Denton hill, soon as spring comes I'll be spiffing it up a little, or should I say a lot.
This one was at Sawmill and whittingham and will be used to get further back into the woods.
(http://i1111.photobucket.com/albums/h477/njloco/IMG_1587.jpg)

Thats a sexy rig, could use some camo on the exterior.
-
I really love this thread. I have dreams of one day to be able to go out west and hunt out of a camper or cabin or even a tent. I have 3 young kids right now. But I can see us out hunting together one day.
-
Ipcjon, you might be right, I guess it will stick out a little.
Three Finger, that is something to really look forward to, you have a real happy experience in front of you, good luck.
-
Hey Ken,
I just picked up a 1968 globetrotter myself. Not near as nice looking as yours.
Being a big mirror, they are the perfect camo :-)

Here is my camp, southwest of Grayling Michigan, along the Manistee River. Just down the river from Freds "hunting grounds".

Thank you, that photo was taken right after it was built. My friend Orion, the Labrador in the photo, passed away last fall at the age of 14. This is one of my favorite photos of him and I.

JASHU, nice cabin, lots of trad hunting history around there.
Real Sorry about your friend Orion.
Guspup, mine needs some work also, soon as the spring comes I'll be real busy getting it ready for the up coming season.

Finished this little jewel in 2009. Deer camp is wherever I want to go that allows camping. Call it the "Dewdrop N"
It wants me to take it turkey hunting some kind of bad.

Sweet little trailer Duncan!
-
Love all the pics but Duncan can we see some inside pics PLEASE!
-
I'll have to post them tomorrow. Gotta hit the sack.
The interior is basically about the size of a queen size. Shelves front and rear with 2 small storage cabinets at the head of the bed.
The rear opens like a trunk lid and there is the galley. All you need is a pop up canopy in the rear and your set.
-
Not my cabin, but Schlaggerman is kind enough to share it with me. It's on property he owns in the northwoods of Wisconsin.

Man, I thought I'd wrote a few checks to Patrick ;)
Can't wait to see if my tax return is big enough to buy a Ridgeline 5200 so I can leave my preagnant fat pig Mystery Ranch 6500 in the closet
-
Need some info on that little TP there dan, weight,dimensions, price......
-
OK its not a traditional cabin in the stationary sense but it has its roots in the 1920’s to the 1970’s and I bet a few trad hunters back in the day used teardrops to get closer to their hunting areas.
(http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss224/snuffornot/Tear%20Drop/IMG_1031.jpg)

Here it is set up. You can see some of the bedding. I’ll have to take some better pics.
(http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss224/snuffornot/Tear%20Drop/IMG_1305.jpg)
Google teardrop trailers. You will get some sites that show builds with tons of pics of different interiors and exteriors.

Yes, I built it from scratch, but then I'm hardheaded. Should have bought some plans, I'm sure it would have been easier. I mostly cruised all the teardrop sites getting ideas and finding out where to get some of the specialty nouldings nd trim pieces. But it was a fun project. I just took longer to build in my spare time because there was alot of trial and error. Kind of like learning to build a self bow! :)

That is one cool unit.

Here is our "cabin on wheels" -- a 31-foot Damon Hornet. My wife and I plan to build a cabin on our property in a few years, but this camper works well for the time being.

Very nice place, Buckster! I love the board and batten siding. Just what I'd want if I ever get to build one. :thumbsup:
-
Thanks Michael, you should see the inside. It has the usual Bobcat mount and a couple of nice deer mounts. But my Mom has really put some nice decorative touches to make it special.
She used a lot of old Southern nostalgia and classic antiques to make it homey. This picture was snapped before the steps up the front porch were installed, probably about 15 years ago.
-
Thanks guys.
Ron I have not taken it to the scales but I doubt it is over 1,000 lbs. My Ranger pulls it fine. I now know I could have made it lighter. But true to form, I over built it a little.
Jason, I like your set up. I've dreamed of getting a place of my own to take the teardrop, build a large shed for cooking and hanging out and using the teardrop for sleeping quarters until I can build a cabin.
Duncan
-
TTT , must be some more out there!!!!!
-
Duncan,
Thanks, and that teardrop of yours looks amazing. I wish I would have thought of building of those years ago. I'd love to see more photos of it if you get the time.

I know, I wish I had known about these teardrops 20 years ago when I hunted the Croatan with my uncle. It would have been much better than sleeping in the back of the truck shell.
I'll try to get some close ups of the interior posted.

Naples! That is in my neck of the woods, sort of. Grew up near Rochester and used to hunt down in Italy Valley when I was much younger. Hopefully we can meet up in a "local" trad shoot or something.

Some REAL nice digs there ... some REAL NICE !!!

Here's a couple from the inside of my cabin that my buddy took from rifle opener last year. Oddly enough, I don't have any pictures of my place other than a couple I have in an insurance folder.
Due to break in's in the area, I did get an alarm system thru the phone lines. A shame, but a reality.
This is from the kitchen looking into the main room...

Very nice places! :campfire:
-
For those interested
this cabin was done in traditional post and beam with stack log infill. It cost a little over $5000.00 for the entire build, mostly roofing and cement. Doors, windows, 3 " blue foam roof insulation, power box - wire, sinks, counter top, etc. are recycled, furniture is made or used stuff mostly old stuff from family and friends. wood is from local saw mills or off my land. Not out of reach, you just got to be invective, and like hard work and picking through junk.
-
Thanks for the inspiration. I have plans to do something similiar this summer. I am trying to at least get the shell up this year.
-
these are great!
-
I love pics of cabins! I dream and drool!

Very nice, I would be happy with land to hunt other than public.

My 'cabin' is a travel trailer, but I have a great friend who has several cabins that he lets me use whenever. All are surrounded by National Forest. It's a dirty job, but I try to help him out and use his cabins from time to time. Here's one of them:

It's hard, but I'm trying to cope.

This is one of my favorite threads

Perfect timing to find this thread. Just got started on my first building on my property. It will be a two story barn, first floor for storage and living quarters on the second floor. I would like to build a separate cabin in the future, may use logs from the property, but until then this will do.
Just got the area for the foundation cleared, staked and squared up last weekend.

Only photo I have of the cabin on 45 acres my wife and I recently purchased in northern lower Michigan. It has been all work and no play fixing up the place so far. Hopefully that will change come October.

Have to stay mobile in CO. Bout the time you might get the perfect hunt camp built the regs change and make buying or drawing a tag uncertain.

One word of advice to all. My father lived a long life and only expressed one regret: converting his hunting cabin to a permanent home.
I'm envious of all you guys with hunting cabins... Enjoy them to the max!

Neat places guys. Terry..how did the Musk Ox get its name?
-
DarkTimber! When I was in college (1983) I was hunting along the river bottom and heard some dogs barking. I figured they were running a deer as I had some trouble with wild dogs in the area before (killed several). I got ready thinking that I might get a shot if they ran the deer by me. Sure enough I hear something coming and I look and see something. I had no idea what it was as it was really big and had a huge mane on it. I thought "that's a muskox". It wasn't a muskox in Indiana. It was a HUGE buck with a tangle of vines and brush tangled in its rack from being pushed by dogs. I didn't get the buck, but I did get one of the dogs. After the buch zoomed past I yelled at the dogs and they ran off. Iclimbed down and they came back. I shooed them away again. They came back a 3rd time and I yelled again. One raised its hackles and growled...wrong thing to do. A well placed arrow ended his deer chasing. That's why it's called the "Muskox Hunt Club".

Cool story Terry, thanks for sharing!!

Here's a couple pictures of mine. Haven't gotten much bow hunting in the last couple of seasons because I've spend most of my free time working on building it. It's finally "finished" and It was nice to be able to enjoy my first hunt out of it this season.
I think we'll call it "The Hard Way Hideout". It sits on the banks of the White River in the delta of Eastern Arkansas, right in the middle of more than 160,000 acres of National Wildlife Refuge that is some of the best deer and duck hunting in the state.
I've tried to build it out of mostly local materials. The board and batten siding is Cypress which was cut just a few miles up river. The interior walls are tongue and groove Southern Pine from South Arkansas and the floors are antique heart pine also from Arkansas.
I've gotten a lot of inspiration and ideas while building it from this post. I can't wait to start making memories here.

I love them all from the tent setups and very primitive to the nicest ones. I think it's the seclusion that attracts me most of all.

Dark Timber that's very nice! Do you have any interior pictures? Would love to see the interior.

Here is my place. I use to get to go only several times a year, however, now I have been full time. Lots of love and hard work. Almost all the timbers were cut from our lot and milled locally.

Archie; That's what I call a cabin,

I hope to be taking pictures soon. I just came to agreement on a hunting property in northern Michigan and there is a 450 square foot primitive cabin on it. Back to hunting the big woods, I can't wait.

"I have hunted there since 1986, and can understand the ache that one may have to hold a piece of country, to throw your heart unreservedly, headlong into a patch of woods, a section of mountain, a stretch of range. Something that would be in your psyche, your soul, when you were away, and calling. Open arms awaiting your return, that you may frolic together in youthful abandon like old friends.
Reunited old friends pick up the conversation where it left off, because they really have never been apart." Killdeer {from page 2}
That's camp and I couldn't say it any better Killdeer! :campfire:

Wow Killdeer! We have a family cabin in the UP and this sentiment nails it. Thank-you.

It one of those ideas that you take on and after 5 years of building you realize why you don't see very many houses made that way in the country. The old-timers must have had huge work bees.

Starting my 5th year on an 800+ acre piece of heaven on earth in Southern Minnesota. We have a 100 year old farm house to stay at. Here's a photo tour of the property (this is a lease...I only wish I could call it my permanent home instead of only a temporary one!)
A welcome sight when coming in from a long day's hunt:

And outside the yard is 800 acres of fields, CRP, and hardwood forests that beckon and call like nowhere else I've been:

I really love threads like this. I have a little cabin on 50 acres that my brothers and I bought in December. I'm in the process of fixing it up right now, so maybe I will have some pics to share sometime soon.
-
LOVE THIS THREAD, no matter the size, these places are paradise to me!
-
This thread never gets old, keeps me dreaming!!!

Jealousy has never been used when talking about my place. It has about had it, but so far keeps us dry and warm.
I've used it for about 10 years now, and I think I bought it for about $300, camo paint and all. Some people think I got took!! But it works.

Snowtrekker EXP Basecamp 11x13. This will be my 6th season in this tent and couldn't be more happy with it. Light enough to pack miles into the wilderness and big enough when car camping to be the envy with a warm fire. Changed the game for me.

Posted a while back but Photo bucket held them captive.
Way back in the woods among the evergreens. Off the grid. 100 watt solar package for lights and radiant propane heater with 250 gal propane tank.
-
John- how does the solar package work for you?
Great pics everyone.
Tim B
-
Tim,
Works great. It’s a 100 watt solar package from Harbor Freight. Panels go to solar charger(keeps from overcharging batteries) to two trolling motor batteries hooked up in tandem. Inverter takes dc from batteries and changes to ac. I have a heavy extension cord with two male ends. One in inverter and one plugged into cabin that goes straight to the fuse box that powers all the outlets. Power comes in as two legs of 60 which has two be wired to fuse box differently than 120. Confused even a lifelong electrician friend.
Runs lights, fans etc. Really everything I need but no ac. Need a 3500 generator for that.
A radiant direct vent propane heater (no blower) keeps the place toasty.

john im running two of those 100 watt solar chargers on 4 deep cycle batts. and a generator for ac and backup battery charging, pretty nice on a hot summer night to watch a good hunting video with cold ac blowing on you. and I have 20 lb. propane tank running two burner cook stove. and woodstove for heat.i do need a small fridg/freezer.

I bought this Amish built log cabin this last summer and had it moved to my property by my3 acer lake. Plenty deer N good fishin. Inside is all log furniture, lights are kerosene lamps and wood stove for heat
I named the cabin after my late wife who I nicknamed Red Bird.
-
This wood stove keeps me plenty warm. The cabin is small but cozy for 1 or 2. and room for company
-
Very nice Ron, I like that! The inside especially has a great traditional look to it. Those green bottles will match some of your green longbows and wool :biglaugh:

Getting ready to head to Granger for four nights to chase hogs. Might even get some flurries.

Hmmm. That worked so I'l try another. Can't seem to post more than one pix on a post. My home away from home in the North Country.

Redfeathers;
19-20 degrees was my limit with old set-up. Have new/better/more efficient sleeping mat and an over quilt, so will be good well below that. 30 is the prediction, so I'll be toasty. No worries about mosquitoes.

Up-graded from the green Sil Poly tarp to a Dyneema tarp, a lighter suspension and lighter hammock system. Tarp and straps weight 12 ounces, saved almost two pounds off total carry weight. Great set-up, and easy to move. Pics not from a hunting trip, but a 74 mile chunk of the Appalachian trail.

Shrewhaven Lodge. A thirty year tradition on that property. Our current cabin has been there for 20 years after being trucked in by semi truck. The cabin was a University of Michigan research quarters built in the 1930’s. We purchased it for $3,000 and put a bunch of manual labor to reconfigure the inside (carefully removed closets and half walls to reuse original pine boards), put a metal roof on and relocate a classic wood stove that Ron LaClair had in his Archery Shoppe. The outside of the cabin was scraped, rechinked and sealed (3 day, four man project).
The investment of time and money was well worth it.
-
First off. Ron, what a great camp you have. That inside pix with the guys and the lamps etc should be made into a jig saw puzzle.
When I first moved to Alberta I had hoped to buy a parcel up north in Bear country and offer free hunts to fellow PBS members. Enter Alberta Professional Outfitters Society (APOS) and that idea ended w the hunter host program. Which took a few years to refine. Now it's 1-2 friends/family every other year.
Well I eventually managed a nice property which we developed over 10 yrs. Cleared it and built everything on it myself except for one old shed a friend gave me. It was only 20 acres but located in the middle of another 600+ acres belonging to various neighbors who all allowed me to hunt right out my back door.
While not exactly a cabin, it was my private little piece of heaven.
-
The house started off as a shop w a mobile home across the drive way from it. Eventually we added on and turned it into our Home.
-
Well I have no idea how that's happening. HELP! Preview is not working for me either.
The area we lived in has one of if not THE highest densities of Moose in Alberta. It was common to hear them coming from a "deer" stand by a neighbors fence wires being stretched as the clumsy buggers were trying to jump/cross over. When I guided for Ryk Visscher he used to tell clients on first day orientation that average good Moose habitat has 2-3 Moose per square mile. The area we hunted which included our property averaged 12-15 per square mile. I lived about 5 kms from a 25,000 acre+- bird sanctuary that allowed only deer hunting and Moose by draw.

My son and I purchased two plots (total of 27.5 acres) of land over the last two years. Did the driveway, landing and captured two springs for water on first plot. Bought a RV that had more rot then we thought, so we’re just using the RV frame. Started the build this past fall. The cabin / trailer will be done by 2022 bow hunting season. The following summer planning a enclosed front porch. My son picked the color, I told my wife I wanted a cabin but got a barn. lol

Looking good ! That colour will tone down and be perfect !

Love that color phase bear? Where did you get it?

Not mine but a friends families that they've had for 4 generations. One of my favorite places to spend time. Try to hunt out of it at least once a year.

Now fallen down. Good memories. It was 8 feet wide. One 2x4 wide. It was a bed, a foot and a half plus an upright gas drum(45gallon) long. I figure about 11-12 feet long, 8 feet wide. Three beds high on both sides. So 6 beds. Or two triple deckers. 9 of us stayed in that. 3 in one bed, next bunk down was two, then every bed after one each. If you shook too much, the snow would fall in on the bed. The piece on the left was an add on. And wasn’t there when I stayed there.

Didn't see where I had contributed on this thread prior - but my home is my hunting cabin in the woods. By design. I walk out my back door to hunt. I own a half-mile deep and have permission to hunt another 5 miles by 8 miles of woods uninterupted by roads or homes.
20 yard indoor range in my basement. Life is good.

Chuck, it's in Benson, about 25 miles north of Rockwood. I put the porch roof on this past summer. Theres not much around there but quiet. Which I like. It does have electric. No cell phone coverage, which I really like!

Sold this place, kind of miss it now that it’s gone. It sat on 120 acres and I have a lot of good memories.
But this one, on a lake. Not much acreage, but lots of state ground.
