The cabin tour you've been waiting for!

[@TheGeekMonster]

Do you worry about the maintenance of the wood exterior? Like so many others, I love the look of log cabins, but I keep hearing that you have to treat the wood every year to avoid pests, mold, rot, etc.

[@markkraljevich146]

According to the company the cabin has to be restained every 5 years. I haven't had a bug issue except for 1 borer bee. I do a perimeter spray for termite ants once a year in the late Spring.

Love the antler coat rack!

Amazon!

I’d make that second bedroom a walk in closet / laundry room.

[@markkraljevich146]

Need space for family and friends!

The broken window replacement was shipped to you but what about installing it?

[@markkraljevich146]

I did the install; the window replacement was very easy, a quick look at the manufacturer's website and the old window basically pops out and the new slides in. It was a 5 minute job needing only a screw driver and pliers

What size deck did you build? Thank you!

[@markkraljevich146]

12' x14' approx $1400 in materials and $1500 labor

Can you stand up? How tall is the loft roof?

[@markkraljevich146]

You can't stand in the loft, ceiling is about 5' high, but a full grown adult can move around without issue. main ceiling is cathedral and 15' high

[@markkraljevich146]

apologies for the delayed response, we've been moving from our main residence.

No clothes closet’s no deal

[@markkraljevich146]

It's not our full time place so we bring up what we need clothes wise. We use under the bed storage bins which work great for bedding and clothes. I also keep some hunting gear up in the loft. The dresser in the master bedroom has a lot of room and we both keep some essentials in it. We make it work!

[@TheGeekMonster]

@@markkraljevich146 I'm with you, I have very few clothes, I like to keep my life simple!

[@jeffholman8146]

You mentioned code? Are in the city? If you aren't, then why is there code? 🤷 That is crazy. Just do your own thing, especially if you don't live in the city.

[@markkraljevich146]

Even in some of the more rural areas, if the township is incorporated, which mine is there is an established local government with building codes.

[@jeffholman8146]

Just ignore the tyrants. You as the property owner is the authority of your property. They have no right/no say in how you operate what is yours. They may make false claims that they do have a "right", but gubment don't grant nor take rights. They do undortunately steal freedom to perform them though. Besides these small rural areas don't have the manpower and resources to actually enforce such trivialities and that part is a good thing. Natural Law ftw.
