The David McKenzie Log Cabin is a historic house located within the Mountain Homeplace in Staffordsville, Kentucky, United States.[1] The cabin was built between 1860 and 1865 by David McKenzie, who was an early settler of Johnson County.[2] It was originally located at Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found., in Volga but was moved to the Mountain Homeplace in the early 1990s by the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers.[3] It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 26, 1982.[4]
The cabin is a double-pen, 1 1⁄2-story cabin measuring approximately 34.6 by 30.4 feet (10.5 by 9.3 m). It is not known if the structure was originally a double-pen structure as it is today or whether the eastern pen, constructed of poplar, was built first followed by the addition of the western pen, which is of yellow pine.[2] The walls are built of hewn logs with dovetail notching. The cabin rests on sandstone piers and contains a central fireplace, which is also made of sandstone.[2]
