RE: small cabin
Well...here is something to consider....I was roofing the cabin last fall, sleet falling, working like a man possessed cause I had to get it dried in.....while im on the roof pounding nails, cussin, slippin, dropping shingles.....there were 14 turkeys about 45 yards away...everytime I would get a good run going nailing, the birds would fight, gobble, cluck, putt...I mean it was wild.
And....I had deer come up to about 10 yards of the cabin and turkeys that actually walked across the porch (tracks in snow)....
Build it....dont worry about spooking the deer.
