The Cabin Kings are tackling their biggest-ever cabin build for a master of tailgating and larger-than-life football fan; at 1350 sq ft, perched atop a treacherous mountain with a lightening storm on the way and only a week to get it done, the Cabin Kings may not be able to make it into the end zone.
2 Waterfall Cabin

A two-mile treacherous mountain road separates a young married couple from the cabin site of their dreams: a mountaintop with a million-dollar view of the Hudson River Valley.

It’s the Cabin Kings’ heaviest build ever! Tuffy and Paulie must build a cabin deep in an abandoned marble quarry, using the enormous marble slabs that have been resting there for a century. With several tons of marble to wrangle in only 7 days, the Cabin Kings are facing an unparalleled engineering challenge that will leave them wishing they charged by the pound.

7 Maple Syrup Motor Club
4/7/15
Season-only
The Cabin Kings must get creative and figure out a way to combine functioning syrup making machinery and old motorcycle parts into a cabin that doubles as a maple syrup business (aka Sugar Shack) and a year-round biker hangout or the entire project could crash and burn.
8 Brewhouse Cabin
4/14/15
Season-only
A lifelong dairy farmer and his microbrewing son want the Cabin Kings to build them a Brewery Cabin on the family farm where they can make their own beer. But when Paulie and Tuffy discover they must build a backwoods brewery using repurposed items like an 800 gallon milk tank, a dilapidated corn crib, a broken-down table saw, and some repurposed skylights, they start to wonder if this build will end up being a recipe for disaster.
9 Collector's Cabin
4/21/15
Season-only
The Cabin Kings build father/son auctioneers Kyle and Ron Seifert the Collector’s Cabin of their dreams, featuring selections from 50 years’ worth of the family’s collecting: a 1956 classic car, vintage memorabilia, building materials and even an old Gas Pump.
10 Demolition Derby Cabin
4/28/15
Season-only
A demolition derby-loving family man hires the Cabin Kings to create the perfect car enthusiast’s getaway. Complete with a “convertible” bedroom that can move inside and outside, and perched at the top of a brutal mountain road, this build will force the Cabin Kings to race around the clock to get it all done, or crash and burn trying.
