The Log House is a large Redwood tree log, hollowed out and gutted, then outfitted like the living room of a house. Crafted by Art Schmock in 1946 from a 2,100 year-old Redwood, this section of the tree weighed four tons and took eight months of labor to hollow out a room 7’ high and 32’ feet long. With wheels attached, it toured the United States until settling down in Redwood country in 1999.
