Hillyard Cabin


The Hillyard Cabin is a historic log cabin on Old Burr Road, northeast of Warm Springs, Arkansas. It is a single-pen log structure, with a gable roof and a fieldstone chimney. The pen is square, fashioned out of sawn logs laid without chinking. The east-facing front facade has a shed-roof porch extending across its width, with a doorway into the cabin on the right and a window on the left. The cabin was built in 1932-33 by a local resident for his brother, an Illinois resident, to use as a vacation site. The cabin is architecturally significant for its distinctive sawn-log construction style, in 1994, at which time it was undergoing restoration and rehabilitation.
