Fred Robson has built a beautiful “Cordwood Bunkie” (as he calls it) on the shores of the magnificently beautiful Lake Kawawaymog in Ontario.
Fred makes mandolins and guitars and is a very talented craftsman. You can see his talent in this light and airy cordwood cabin.
The floors are acid-etched with a compass motif.
Fred built his own bed! Now he has to make it!
The octagon windows add a nice touch of light.
His practice building was a cordwood sauna. It gets mighty cold up on Lake Kawawaymog and the sauna helps to take away the chill.
