Hyde Log Cabin - Grand Isle, Vermont - U.S. National Register of Historic Places on Waymarking.com

According to the Vermont Historic Marker:

This cabin was built circa 1783, one of the first buildings constructed in the area. Built from cedar logs by Jedediah Hyde, Jr., an engineer and veteran of the Revolutionary War, it was the home of the Hyde family for over 150 years. The cabin has one large room, heated by a stone fireplace, and a loft above. Many believe this to be the oldest log cabin in the United States. It was moved two miles to this location in 1946 by the Vermont Historical Society and restored in 1956 and again in 1985. The Grand Isle Historical Society owns the collection in the building.
