During 2022 it was carefully dismantled, restored and re-erected in Virginia, 25 miles from Shenandoah National Park. Named The Crooked Tree Cabin, it was re-built by the same Virginia-based team of craftsmen who were awarded historical re-construction contracts at Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello, James Madison’s Montpelier and George Washington’s boyhood home, Ferry Farm. Tucked away in a forest of mature chestnut oak, maple, hickory, and poplar trees, it awaits you to add to its history. Walk on the same flooring as others did 200 years before you.
