Hyde Log Cabin


This roadside historical site preserves the oldest (1783) log cabin in Vermont and one of the oldest in the US. It's worth a short stop to see how settlers lived in the 18th century and to examine traditional household artifacts from Vermont. Visitors can also explore the adjacent tool shed and early-19th-century schoolhouse.
