DIY Network Seeking Remote Cabin Remodelers Who Salvage Old
Cabins In Michigan, Minnesota, And Wisconsin
Due to the overwhelming success of DIY network’s, Maine Cabin Masters, Do
rsey Pictures is
looking in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Michigan for the next soon-to-be-stars

Does your build team live for rehabbing old, run down abandoned cabins in r
ough, bush
terrain, revitalizing a little bit of backwoods history in the process?
Our cameras will follow the entire reclaim process: discovering the forgott

cabins, tracking down the owners (living or deceased), setting up makeshift
camps during the
rehab process, and witnessing the team as they adapt, improvise, and persev
ere in the face
of remarkable challenges to save old forgotten remote properties, breathing
new life into
them.
