Horace Baker built the log cabin around 1856 near Carver, Oregon. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.
The cabin displays how families lived on the frontier during the 1800s, with simple rooms designed for daily work and communal living. The layout and materials reflect the practical way settlers built and arranged their homes.
The cabin is accessible by road and can be viewed from outside; indoor tours require prior arrangement. Visitors should prepare for uneven ground and wear suitable shoes to explore the grounds comfortably.
The cabin was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976, about 120 years after Horace Baker built it near Carver. The listing recognises the structure itself, a log building from around 1856, as a surviving example of mid-19th-century settlement in Clackamas County.
