Fure's Cabin, Historic log cabin in Lake and Peninsula Borough, United States.
Fure's Cabin is a 15-by-20-foot (4.6 by 6.1 m) log cabin built around 1926 on a narrow isthmus along the portage trail between Naknek Lake and Lake Grosvenor in Katmai National Park and Preserve, Alaska. The National Register listing also covers a shed, an outhouse and a 27-foot (8.2 m) windmill tower.
Fure's Cabin, also called Roy Fure's Trapping Cabin, was built around 1926 on the portage trail between Naknek Lake and Lake Grosvenor. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on 7 February 1985, together with a shed, an outhouse and a 27-foot windmill tower.
The cabin is also called Roy Fure's Trapping Cabin, after the trapper who built it around 1926. It stands on the portage trail between Naknek Lake and Lake Grosvenor, a route used to carry boats and gear between the two lakes. The listing covers the cabin, a shed, an outhouse and a 27-foot windmill tower.
The cabin sits on a narrow isthmus on the portage trail between Naknek Lake and Lake Grosvenor, so it is reached on foot or by boat along that route rather than by road. The 15-by-20-foot cabin, its shed, outhouse and 27-foot windmill tower stand together at the crossing point.
The National Register listing of 1985 covers four elements, not just the cabin: the 15-by-20-foot log cabin, a shed, an outhouse, and a 27-foot windmill tower. Visitors walking the portage trail between Naknek Lake and Lake Grosvenor can look for the tower's remains beside the buildings.
