Here's mine. Poplar and pine cut from the farm, dried, cut into lumber with a portable sawmill, planed the pine flooring, built on site and then enjoyed....

Nice. That definitly looks like it was a fun project.

Nice cabin. I'd like to have one for myself.

Simple but comfortable. Miles from a public road, no running water or electricity but in some good elk country. I can walk from my property into nat'l forest.

Nice Cabins Guys! Thanks for shareing.

I'm happy for you guys having such nice places. Seeing them keeps me dreaming

Hey. I want to come visit some of you people. Ranger B is a good storyfeller. I can keep you entertained ;-)

That is the place Kadbow! Walk right onto Nat'l forest...love it!

Here's mine! Ha just kidding, mine has wheels and a generator cause I have to hunt public land :(

Split Rock, WI.

Mine is in Ritchie county Wv I wish I had pictures of but its just an old house my Grandfather was born in sets on 99.8 acres and load with deer and turkey , My dad started the hunting camp there on Five Forks in 1977 we didnt have eletric but had a buch of fun guys to hunt with I grew up listen to hunting tails of the past and being taught by several old hunters Most are gone now but we still hunt out of that camp memories are everything with a camp no matter whether its a tent or the finest cabin ,, Nice places Gents

For those posting poctures of your cabins.......I am green with envy.

I had a camp up on Sebec Lake in Dover-Foxcroft ME back in the '80's with 40 acres.....I sold it to finance my wifes college education.

I've not looked back on that decision.....until now....just a tiny bit..... Oh how I wish I had a place like that again. But, my wife did really really well with the investment, and that has made me happy. Jim. ps: I would do it again for her.

Yep, mine is mobile as well.. Here is a close up of one of them... Warbonnet Blackbird.. TOP right shows the foot box area, bottom right shows the infamous shelf.. Very handy if ya love your hammocks.. Add a 8x10 tarp over it and it is all weather happiness!! Heading up this week for early doe season!!

KPC- Thanks, "camp" is fast approaching 100 years old in 2014. It was actually built as a camp with formed concrete walls with field stones thrown into the mix. All of this was done, of course, by horse and wagon and the sweat of four friends and some helpers. I am a fourth generation owner. My dad died at the age of 45, so ownership went to me from my grandfather at a fairly young age of 40 at the time. Lots of good memories and hunting stories. Miss my "pap" badly and always think of him when I am there. Beav

This is always one of my favorite threads. Really nice cabins guys! Keep the pictures coming.

Here's my cabin in the Rockies,late fall before the snow, elk and deer close by. Built it myself in 1985. No electricity or phones, no problem! I do have a generator though now. As I am retired now my wife and I will and have been spending more time there. I usually pack in for elk but as I age I plan do do more hunts out of the cabin. At 64 almost 65, and getting past middle aged (my wife and I kid about that all the time) Plan to live to 120 or so. You should see it when the aspens turn and then when the snow piles hi! Ahhh! Lifes good. Shot a trophy mulies last week with the longbow about 1/2 mile from the cabin.

KPC BTW, your cabin is awesome. Looks "neat as a pin" in a picturesque setting. Beav

Waushara County, Wi 1 year old Sept.3rd

Uggggh YES we have... I had a case of .223, lots of clothing, ammo, etc. stolen... other fellas had stuff stolen AND the lousy thieves stole all our copper pipe... ruined our spring and into the summer for what was probably $50 worth of copper. Coincidentally(?) the neighbors had loggers all over the property cutting their trees.

I shudder to think what might have happened had I come upon some guys ripping pipe from the cabin- I never climb the mountain without my AR-15 and a 40 round RELIABLE clip locked and loaded (thanks to Sterling of England for making the only 40 rounder that works). What do you say to a guy a mile back in the woods as you are obviously robbing his hunting cabin? PS - the cops are an hour away- there is NO police force only state police and a sheriff 3 towns over which I have no idea how to reach... 911 I guess?

No problems here in Mississippi with break-ins. They know we are gun totin' rednecks! Plus mines way off the road behind a locked gate. Here's a pic of the inside of the 1st cabin on the post. I have running water and electricity and propane heat. I had to run a trencher and lay water line over 2 miles. Then put the elec in the trench. it was worth the effort I guess.

Oops! Heres the interior shot. I also have a wood heater which gets used way more than the propane heater.

my families camp when I was a kid in Louisiana, we still have it, it's on the banks of a beautiful river

mine here in N Mississippi, painting it this week it will look a lot better by the weekend.

WvBareBow; thats were I grew up.

I have what I can afford. I'd post a picture but I'm sure no one wants to see a picture of a 2000 ford f150 LOL Seriously I envy you guys with the beautiful hunting camps. Enjoy them they are great

We have a sign beside the door that says; "If you've gotten this far then your picture has been taken at least twice".

It's worked so far.

View from the porch

Porch picture was a different day if ya'll havn't figured it out already

Traxx, Yes I believe I did have pics of my cabin in an aritcle I did. I see I mentioned no plumbing twice, I meant one of them to say no phone. Apparently no plumbing is more important to me than no phone, cheeez. What the hell's wrong with me. I'll be heading up to the cabin tonight so I can hunt the opener tomorrow morning. Never see any good bucks this early in the season but it's a ritual kind of thing. Can't shoot any does in our area this year and wouldn't you know I seem to have lots of them around. Hi Bill, Lots of good memories out of my cabin, it's about 15 years old now. If you and Gail would like to come up sometime to hunt for a weekend let me know. Nov. is pretty full but late Oct. might work. Have almost 500 acres of private land to hunt plus tons of public. I have a couple of WTA guys up this weekend to fill their bear tag, I have literally tons of bears. Generally get as many bear pics on the cameras as deer. Those bears love the food plots as much as the deer.

Nice cabin mp

Wow, very nice cabins. I really like formerbutchers cabin up in Wi. Something like that would be my dream get away and hopefully I can do something like that some day when time and the good Lord permits. Thanks everyone for sharing.

I am with ronp and Formerbutchers cabin. Love the looks and size of it. What more is needed to get in and warm up?

May need to see that one sometime.

Great pictures guys.

Tim

thanks for the pics and have a nice season.

We got deers...

A hunting cabin is a great addition to any hunt, a special place to share with special friends and family. Packing in to far off places is also neat however the cabin is special in that when the weather is foul and cold it doesn't hamper the overal enjoyment as much. One of the best investments I ever made!

Forget camps!!!! I would live in those cabins year around; great pictures guys; thanks to all who have shared;

Great looking places,some much nicer looking than My home.Here are a few of mine. Pappy

Great thread!

Everybody got some new batteries for their CO detectors?

Well, it's kind of a cabin ;)...4finger

Best I can do!

You guys have some fantastic places to go. I hope to do the same one day. enjoy.

No deer around this cabin but lots of bears and moose and grouse .And a lake full of smallmouth , whitfish ,perch and walleye . just put the steel roof on last weekend .

Purty places fellas. I hope to build a small cabin along the Ocmulgee River here one day with God Willing.RC

Please keep posting. I have to work. Lets see those camps

heres mine in Mississippi on lake mary.

Here's mine sup up right now in WI

these are some of the coolest cabins i have ever seen. Have any of thought about renting them to other bowhunters when you and yours are done for the season?

I prefer to remain flexible when it comes to hunting/camping and will pitch "camp" where and when. Here, on the shore of lake Michigan in Northern Michigan.

Man, you guys got it going on. Some really nice spots.

36bound, that is the first pop up I've seen like that. what brand is it?

Hey Gundy, I always take reg charcoal and small chunk coal when we go on extended late fall/winter hunts, wood is great when not wet but the charcoal/coal will burn all night without having to get up often and stoke the fire when the snows falling hard outside. Just another way that works for us ;)...4finger

mine is the white one on wheels!

Haumph. Lets try that again.

And the barn.

Louisiana swamp shack

Eddie C,

It's called an Aliner. It's an amazing little camping/hunting base camp. It can be set up or taken down in LESS THAN one minute flat- even without detatching it from the tow vehicle. It's the perfect hunting/camping/travelling rigg.

Sat. Nov 13th. Our first snow of the season.

It's not the permanent cabin we wish to eventually have, but then we can have a different view out the front door every season. It's small and comfy and just the ticket for public land hunting.

4finger who makes that tent you have? Looks like a good setup.

THANKS, 36.

Thanks, 36. I searched it and found the nearest dealer is in PA, I'm down here in TN. looks like they have several nice layouts.

John, it's a Cabelas 12x12 Alaknak w/the Vestibule...its been a good set up for us, Thanks...4finger

Eddie C,

I believe Aliners are actually manufactured in PA. Perhaps that is why they are so well made. It's that good old fashioned PA work ethic!

Good luck.

Hunting, Fishing, and Relaxing. My favorite place for all 3.

Hunting, Fishing, and Relaxing. My favorite place for all 3.

Live in the Log One year around in SW Washington, Scamp Sept. for "early season" on the East side of the state and motorhome for the cold winter period Mid Nov thru Mid Dec usually chasing elk in the snow in the coast range.. Quad for retrieving [only].. mule deer on private property.. Old Bronco has 5600 ft of cable and a winch and has been worth it 's wt. in gold getting elk up out of deep canyons

This is a view of the "mobile cabin" in use in Eastern Wash on a hunt we had in 08...rough, and pretty open country with deep canyons for bedding and spot and stalk and winter wheat fields above but nice deer.. hunting a friends ranch.

Gene

great stuff guys....unfortunately everyone I know of who owns a hunting cabin has had it broken into and robbed numberous times. There was one place I had permission to hunt that had the windows all shot out and there were bullet holes in the walls and door. My brother and i considered getting some property and one of the pre-fabricated cabins that you can assemble yourself but then though t would not be worth it once the locals found the place and destroyed it.

Yet thousands, if not tens of thousands (or millions?) of people have cabins that they enjoy and look forward to spending time at. A classic example of a glass "half empty" perspective.

Unfortunately the cabins much better than the deer hunting is!

KPC, you speak the truth. Our cabin was burned to the ground late last summer by kids who were using it as a party place. We assumed they got too high and let things get out of hand.

Joe

Posted a pic of the cabin above... here is a picture taken this spring from the back door... Our resident black-tail neighbors... Momma has placed these guys "out of bounds"... I saw "daddy" this summer a very respectable 4x4

It is a shame, a crying shame- and bad guys SUCK!

...But my glass half full perspective is, (and I'm hazarding a big guess here) that the joy of owning a cabin far outweighs any infrequent grief associated with owning a cabin.

Perhaps several trail cameras in discrete places around the perimeter of the structure are in order? And a sign by the cabin that says, "If you are reading this sign you have already been photographed multiple times on your way in by night-time capable trail cameras. Tresspassing is a misdomeaner. Breaking and entering is a felony. Leaving and not returning is also a ONE TIME courtesy that I am extending to you now. Choose wisely because I WILL PROSECUTE to the full extent of the law."

I have a friend who once had a breaking and entering problem at his place of business until he put up a sign on the egress window that read, "There is no longer a way to get through this window without having your head blown off by a shotgun."

Gonna post 2 more taken from the fron porch..no telephoto lens here.... 1 more to follow..enough teasing !!

Could't resist this one.. I actually think this may be the one above I refered to as daddy as this picture was taken three years ago

I promise this IS the last one... my "small" mobile cabin with a nice background ..AKA Mule Deer country !!

Anybody ever post on this web site?

God bless you... hope everyone's doing great!

Envy is not a good thing, and I have to struggle with it every time I look through this thread!!! :o) Some really neat places there.

Not quite the small cabin we grew up in with a lake pump and outhouse but my folks place in Northern MN is a nice place to come home to from hunting. Just worried we won't be able to afford the taxes down the road.

Hope to make it back there for a visit end of Oct this year and hunt whitetails in the BWCA

I don't hunt anymore but this is my place in the Catskills of NY. It's where I stump shoot.

Bob N

This is mine. I guess it is more of a shack but it does the job. I plan on moving it to another part of our property this summer.

I really enjoy picture threads. Also like every one of you folks cabins from the backcountry tents to the all bell and whistle cabins, I LIKEM ALL.

A stone cabin in the West italian Alps.

ok you win, way cool. oz

This is mine. It was an old homestead built about a hundred years ago. We've had it since '41. It's a rustic dove tail log cabin. It has shifted somewhat over the years. The side with the barn boards is the woodshed attached. There is also a smaller dove tailed sauna just up the path. Of course there is no electricity or running water. We have an old cookstove and use oil lanterns. We do have a really nice well there though, hand dug and stone lined many, many years ago. To get to it we have to cross a lake and then hike through the woods about a mile and a half and cross a beaver dam.

Really enjoyed the pictures. Relaxing to see and imagine living in such a cabin or shack.

somerset county, Pa

Absolutely fantastic places---would love to have any of them. Glad to see so many of you have such nice places.

My cabin on wheels.

Lets try this again. I sure would like to have all those bow limbs Thats not my picture. Hopefully this will be my cabin on wheels.

Just got this place in Feb. in Hawkins Co TN, my home county. There's a lot of work to do there but I have several years until I retire from the Air Force to get it completed. In the mean time I have family using it to garden and hunt and I'll be there several weeks a year to do the same.

Here is a picture of one of the fields on the place at the back of the property. Plenty of turkey, deer and squirrels. Hopefully more quail and rabbits when I get some work done on the place.

Spent many cold nights in this humpty, as well as the Toyota motel.

Ian, that is way to comfortable looking of a cabin. Aaaa :) JF

Hahaha. My grandparents built it themselves back in the 70's I believe. That's just the mid level.( walk in basement and loft)

Definitely a relaxing feeling I get. JF
