The house in 2018
The Greek Revival house, built in 1842, was named "Double Cabins" because that was the name of the stage coach stop across the road. The house was built by Shatteen Mitchell and "is a good example of the provincial adaptation of Greek Revival forms to an upcountry Georgia plantation home."[2]
