The Cabin Masters have a $50,000 budget to renovate a camp four-times the size of their usual builds. While they're hesitant to take on such a huge project, the team is determined to deliver after finding out the client is a member of Ryan's favorite band. After a series of harsh weather delays, the crew reluctantly asks for an extension on their deadline and faces the truth that cabins weren't meant to be built in the winter. The team "drops the mic" on this build and blows away the entire family with a complete exterior and interior facelift including a special project that pays homage to a loved family member and a giant outdoor checkerboard for the kids.
130-Year-Old Island Cabin
Chase and his team renovate a 130-year-old cabin on an island.
Teaching an Old Cabin New Tricks
For the past 20 years, a family has created lasting memories of their cabin overlooking Harpswell Sound, but the cabin is in need of some work to see the next 20 years and beyond. Chase and the team jack and level the cabin and expand it to accommodate the next generation of the family.
An Uphill Battle
Lifelong Mainers bought their Belgrade cabin in 1987 and have maintained it over the years, but the list of needed repairs continues to grow. Chase and the team give the camp much-needed life by rebuilding its front wall and replacing the heating system.
Golden Years Family Camp
After buying her parents' old summer camp in Bridgton, a mother calls on the Cabin Masters to help her completely renovate the home for her parents to retire in full-time. With a $40,000 budget and open timeline, Chase and his crew come in to transform this camp into the ideal retirement space where the grandparents can safely continue to enjoy their twilight years surrounded by their loving family.
A Lobster Legacy Shack
A couple inherited their quaint cabin from his grandfather, who originally built the cabin by hand in 1978. With a newly built wharf that provides a stable foundation, Chase and his team focus on transforming the former fish and lobster shack into a fun family cabin.
Lobster Shack Scramble
A man who dreamed of owning an oceanfront cabin buys an abandoned lobster shack that's fallen into disrepair. With a tight deadline and $50,000 budget, the team must work fast to create a vibrant new living space and build new docks for easy access.
Love Yurts
In a Cabin Master first, Chase and the crew are tasked with a relocation and land manifestation of a family Yurt on an island on Togus Pond. With a budget of $15,000 and five weeks to complete the job, Chase and the team enter uncharted (and nearly frozen) waters, knowing they will have to move quickly to beat the oncoming ice and snow so they can have the yurt ready for the family to drop their fishing lines in the frozen pond.
The Eyesore by the Shore
A couple owns the most-recognized camp on Lake Cobbosseeconntee, but it's a fame they'd rather do without. This eyesore is about to fall into the water, and the Cabin Masters have agreed to rescue this family's camp and restore their good name.

Call of The Loon
Sitting on the shores of Moosehead Lake, the cabin known as the "Call of The Loon" has been reacquired by the original builder's great-granddaughter. Chase and the team update the amenities and add a second story to accommodate the large family.
Kids' Dream Lake House
Chase Morrill and his team help a DIY homeowner jump-start his project and renovate a cabin near Damariscotta, Maine, with kids in mind. With a budget of $30,000 and short time frame, the builders have to use their imagination to keep the homeowners happy while still impressing their youngest clientele yet.
A Cabin in Training
A couple purchased a quaint cabin with an accompanying railroad caboose. Chase and the team transform both spaces to create a camp by enlarging the main cabin with more sleeping space, indoor plumbing and an updated kitchen, while the caboose provides more bunk space and storage.
Ship-Shape Shack
Chase and the team have their hands full transforming a family's treasured 1950s lobster shack into a cabin that will create a lifetime of memories for generations to come. They re-imagine the cabin's interior layout, preserve a cherished mural and add an exterior widow's walk on top of the new design.
Heirloom Home on the Shore
Builder Chase Morrill and his team are in West Bath, Maine, to work on a family camp on the coast of the New Meadows River. After 40 years of use, the third-generation owners have decided to add facilities and more appropriate living quarters for the large family reunions they host each year. Chase has to figure out how to get down to the camp before taking it apart, which calls for some high-end stonework. The crew also springs into action to build something special for the family dog.
Paws, Present and Future
Two animal lovers with a heart for rescuing dogs and cats call on Chase Morrill and his team to transform their West Gardiner cabin into a pet sanctuary. The crew works to bring modern-day amenities into a cabin that's over a century old while maintaining the rustic appeal that originally attracted the owners.
A Very Scary Camp
This family cabin in Mount Vernon is an author's favorite place to write horror novels, but it contains only the bare minimums. He hopes that the Cabin Masters can improve the camp's livability, double its size and preserve its rustic charm.
A Legacy Preserved
The Cabin Masters pay tribute to an entomologist and late matriarch of an amazing legacy in West Gardiner, Maine, by restoring two rustic cabins on her 113-acre Wakefield Wildlife Sanctuary. With a budget of $35,000, they restore the cabins by adding composting toilets, hand pumps to pull water from the nearby stream and propane heaters and cook stoves.
Taking It to the Finish Line
Builder Chase Morrill and his team are hired to finish a cabin for a homeowner who has been collecting materials for years but just hasn't been able to finish the project. With a budget of $20,000, the crew hopes to make the homeowner's dream a reality in just eight weeks.
A Multi-Family Affair
A couple found an isolated cabin and fell in love with idea of owning and restoring it. Chase and the team have their hands full trying to repair and restore this diamond in the rough that's only accessible by hiking or by boating across the lake.
Inspirations Brewing
If there's one thing both Chase Morrill and his brother-in-law, Ryan, love besides renovating cabins, it's beer. When they learn that the owner of their latest cabin project works at Allagash Brewing Company, they're excited to check out the brewery for inspiration as they turn the weekend getaway into a three-season home away from home. Located on the shore of Sabattus Pond, the cabin has a steep drop-off to the water, a front door in the wrong place, a kitchen that's too tiny and a unusable loft thanks to a low ceiling. Chase and the team brew up some incredible projects to reimagine the cabin footprint and use items from the brewery as well as custom pieces to transform it beyond their clients' wildest expectations.
Family's Empty Nest
A family has the resources to give their Lincolnville, Maine, cabin the love it deserves now that their four children are almost done with college. However, the crew has their hands full with this job because the cabin has been neglected for 25 years and corners were cut in the original build.
Buttoned-Up and Bug-Free Legacy
Thirty years after a couple purchased their first lakeside home, their growing family needs more space than the 100-year-old camp can provide. The Cabin Masters help these new grandparents create a home where they can watch their grandkids grow up.
