A Family's Retreat Rebuilt

When this quaint retreat was seriously damaged in a wind storm the family contacted Creasey Log Homes for their expertise in repairs. Little did they know at that time that "repair" to Terry means an opportunity to breathe life into a structure not previously seen in the first place.

 

This cabin began as a pile of logs which had been saved from a cabin which had been one of the oldest cabins on Bainbridge Island. Starting with a foundation that was previously poured we designed and assembled the logs to fit an exact replica of the original cabin. Every step along the way we used materials that would have been used when the cabin was first built.

Preservation: The Old Cabin on the River

Years ago, this family cabin in Northwest Washington was built close to the river, before certain building codes were required. This made it necessary to preserve the cabin (rather than rebuild) because if torn down, the family would not be permitted to rebuild in the same location. Creasey Log Homes (CLH) was hired to repair and restore the cabin.
