A log cabin with a covered front porch, stone chimney, and several rocking chairs sits among trees. The printed caption identifies it as the minister's log cabin at Shrine, part of Bryce's Hillside Cottages at now modern say Bryce Resort in Basye, Virginia. The rough log walls and shaded porch give it a rustic character, and the rocking chairs point to quiet sitting in the woods. Simple cottages like this were common at early twentieth-century cottage retreats, where a rustic stay close to nature was part of the appeal.
