Hewn Log House

Publicly owned and managed, the Whitcomb-Cole hewn log house is an example of early pioneer homes built in the 1890's. It is one of only a few pioneer log homes still standing in Klickitat County, Washington. It originally stood two miles across Conboy lake on land first settled by Stephen Whitcomb. In 1891, John Cole acquired the land from Whitcomb and built the main structure of the house, which included a large downstairs room that served as a kitchen, dining, sitting and family room. The house is located in Conboy Lake National Wildlife Refuge, Washington.
