2014- "Located within Peninsula State Park, this property contains a house and an adjacent stone well.

The 1 1/2 story Side Gabled house [25937] was constructed in 1900. It is rectangular in plan with square-hewn log walls and a wood-shingled gable roof. The front elevation faces south and is symmetrical in plan with a central front door and 6-over-6 windows on each side. A short concrete stoop and a board railing provides access to the front door. Two front-gabled dormers are located in the front roof slope; each of these contains a single 9-pane window.

Adjacent to the house is a small well [57158] constructed c.1900. The well consists of a rounded stone base with a wood-shingled gable roof. The roof supports are round wood posts."
