I was just out by the property again and it is honestly wild to think that anyone could look at these trees and that cabin and think development is the right move. The emails keep piling up in my inbox which is heartening because it feels like people finally realize the history we are losing if we stay quiet. I keep trying to get a straight answer from the local office but they are just giving me the runaround yet again.

I think this cabin needs to remain where it is. I can remember taking a field trip to this cabin when I was in school and I have been there in recent years with my special needs class...these kids get a lot when they can have the hands-on experience of seeing history.
My Uncle Herb Coffman amd his wife Margie (Doll) Coffman, used to live near there..I spent a lot of time there. Uncle Herb was my father's brother...my father was Guy Coffman.I have many very fond childhood memories form our visits there
I visited this cabin w/my father and grandparents. I've taken my children there and my grandchildren. Please help save this canin
If you tare down everything from back In time we can't show our children they will be looking down in disbelief of what we tell them. The histrionic places is the places we take them to teach them that this is how things were and how things have changed.
I visited the cabin 3 years ago. It was difficult to find as you travel up the small road, but well worth the trip. Please preserve this wonderful treasure of history and keep it available for future generations.
