Occupied continuously as a farmhouse until 1970, when it fell vacant, The Widow Donaldson's Place has been painstakingly restored to its original state, evolving into one of the best-preserved and largest log cabins still standing. Our adjoining Stone Cottage has been transformed into a media area for those wishing to catch up on news, game of the day, or to just relax in. Some records indicate the Stone Cottage pre-dates the Cabin, circa 1751, and was used as a residence while construction of the Cabin took place.
