It sits on a stone foundation under a gable metal roof, and a log spring house wing runs down the hill toward the river. A wood frame garage or barn stands to the southwest, a modern house lies to the northeast, and a large Victorian house sits up the slope to the west. The survey sheet classes the building under early settlement and gives its date as about 1812 or the 1830s. It notes that there is debate over the cabin's age. The sheet records an addition and rates the interior condition as good and the exterior as fair. It was recorded in a township survey of historic resources as an example of early log construction in the Dublin area. The surviving paperwork is thin, and reviewers described the technical documentation as deficient.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":null,"criteria":[],"status_note":"Interior condition is listed as good and exterior as fair.
