Johnny Sack Cabin, Historic log cabin in Island Park, United States
The 20 by 27 feet log bungalow features hand-crafted wooden furniture and sits near the headwaters of Henry's Fork Snake River at Big Springs.
German immigrant Johnny Sack constructed this cabin between 1932 and 1934 using traditional hand tools and split bark design techniques at Big Springs.
The cabin represents early 20th century American log construction methods and contains original furniture created by Johnny Sack during his three decades of residence.
The United States Forest Service maintains this National Register of Historic Places site, opening it to visitors from mid-June through mid-September.
A water wheel house near the cabin generated electricity by harnessing energy from the springs that produce 120 million gallons of water daily.
