Seasonal Housing
Lake Winnepesaukee- Spider and Church Islands
With Docktor’s Construction
These projects exemplify seasonal housing for guests, workers, and low impact alternatives for your own personal retreat. These cabins are easy to heat, easy to clean, and are very affordable to build and maintain.
Built in conjunction with Docktor’s Construction, these cabins feature:
- Electricity- on or off grid
- Insulated for three or four season use
- Foot prints from 10 x 12 and smaller to avoid building permits
- Water access by hand pump or well
- Heat via propane, wood, or solar hot air
- Lofts for sleeping
- Passive solar orientation
- Pier foundations
These cabins can be built of a myriad of materials and styles from conventional stick frame to timber frame or straw bale and cob. Your budgets and the long term use depict the cost, and we also offer buildings that let you finish them yourself.
A cabin going up along the shoreline of Lake Winnepesaukee. This cabin is replacing a cabin of the same size footprint that was built in the 1920’s by a church group. Hence the name – Church Island. The new cabin will feature- composting toilet, hand water pump, deck, lake views, and two separate rooms- bedroom, and living space.
An old ice house slated for reconstruction in 2009. Whole Farm Services is excited to have a chance to rebuild this iconic structure into a usable space again.
