- Opening up the cabin for the season! Beautiful weather in early March allowed me to build the deck early.

My husband made a bench railing for a friend’s deck. He made it chair height, then used a 2” x 10” (or 12”) board on top of the railing. This height did not block the lake view & also could be used to sit on. Worked very well. Just an idea that worked for us.
This cabin looks amazing. I enjoyed looking at the building process "start to finish" in a slowest speed possible. This made me remember the house which my daughter lived in and they had a large pond in the backyard, and after rain the ground was very moist. Now I noticed your cabin is much closer to the water, and following your installment of the foundation made me think of the ground condition after the melting of the snow and rain. Which gave me the idea for you to install cement blocks under the foundation closest to the water, since you did use cement blocks under the "floating" deck. This is just a suggestion for the protection of your beautiful cabin. You are very talented and skilled and I am glad to have found your channel because your build is very inspiring.
So glad to see you back. I look forward to many more episodes over the spring, summer, and fall. Stay safe.
That was fun. Nice to have you back again. Thanks for sharing
Yay, looks awesome. It will really nice for bbq's and relaxing. 👍👍💖👏🍻
Good to see you back at it!!!! Michigan Troll here 😊 watching!!!
Looks Great! I love your journey, it's been one of the best on YT!
Not a relaxing weekend but a productive one. Welcome back to the cabin.
Thanks for sharing. You’ve created a wonderful getaway. Miss being UpNorth.
Only thing I would have done different to your cabin is a tiny wood burning stove. But otherwise I just love it.
Your back, must be spring. Nice. Thanks much for the video.
You have a nice setting for your up north cabin. Thanks for the video.
Nice job on the deck. Some TH-camrs would have taken at least twice as long to do as much to pad out the content. Great progress on the property!
Looks cool!!! Nice work.
It’s a beautiful area. Enjoyed the aerial footage. Can you show more of the trail with the drone? Thanks for the video.
Mornin 🖐😎👍
Put some heavy logs or cinder blocks on top of that drag attachment. Will do a better job. Great video as always. .
Hey Justin. Always happy to see a video ! Been proudly wearing my Echos hoodie all winter ! I wouldn’t have thought about the deck that low but I like it ! Also made me think of whether or not you’ve got any plans for when the snow from the roof lands on it ? Also guessing that’s why it’s lower. I’m in Maine but I find that I subscribe and watch so many channels from northern Mn and UP areas and I think it would be a great if you did a mid winter video. If you did an annual trip to the cabin. Snowshoe in. Check on things. Clean up a little. Maybe some ice fishing. Just an idea I figured I’d mention. Hope all is well my friend. Take care
Cool little cabin for sure. Do you plan on covering your deck? It will be getting all the precipitation off that side of the roof...
Very nice!
Ficou uma maravilha esse deck ...ate logo
Are you by chance near Cadillac? The setting looks awesome.
Looks great but I thought you were going to get some joist hangers. Also they make tape to protect the joists from rotting. It really makes them last longer. But you do a great job building. Thanks much.
And he didn’t do frowny face…
Nice Deck---I would make the front all steps & railing only on the tree side if at all...my deck is 12' X 16' with 16' step all the way across....just saying..I think it has 4 step runners if that is what you say --it looks like you only need 2 steps....I don't know if any of this makes sense but it looks nice & more than one can go down the steps at a time. I don't what that Lake is but we had a cabin on Houghton Lake ....very crowded - party town-it was nice though...that lake don't look very occupied...I live the middle of Michigan...nice to meet you
What size? Looks great 👍
👍👏👏👏
Did you drive a point well if so how deep did you have to go for good water
🙋👍
How much land do you have there?
Me personally, I would have taken down that pine tree. Those types of trees are useless.
Nice cabin but the indoor metal ceiling is unpleasant. Cover it with wood!
