Summary

The Schuetz log cabin, located in rural Morrill County, is significant as an excellent example of log construction of the area during the early 1900s. The cabin exhibits significance through its unique log construction, which was favored in frontier regions for its ease of construction when few building supplies were readily available. Despite its fair condition and past alterations, the Schuetz log cabin has maintained its core character defining features that provide for the opportunity to witness and understand this type of construction.
