Purchased in 1988 as a block of Bush, the majority of clearing was initially done with a small Massey Ferguson Te20 a long length of chain a shovel and chainsaw.Built originally with nothing more than the chainsaw, shovel, hammer and nails the log cabin that I still live in has undergone a few changes over the years but we have tried to keep it looking the same on the outside made mostly from large hardwood posts and paperbark slabs and half rounds for walls concrete floor with sunken lounge room. The hand built rock chimney is the feature piece of the front of the cabin so be sure to check it out and get a few pics.

The hosts were welcoming and accommodating. This suited my needs for a budget friendly alternative to a motel, with my own own bathroom and kitchenette facilities, and access to power. As I was staying on my own I was able to set up a stretcher in the games room, and the industrial fan helped me survive a heat wave.
