"We're taking Blog Cabin out west for the very first time," said Grundy. "It's a little taste of small town living with walk-up ice cream shops, down home restaurants, and year-round events for the whole family."

Chris will join forces with other popular DIY Network stars, including the crashers team, to transform the original 1970s hilltop home. In addition, Laurie March, the House Counselor from HGTVRemodels.com, will provide behind-the-scenes videos of the construction and design of Blog Cabin 2015 on DIYNetwork.com/blogcabin. Nestled among the Rocky Mountains, the original cabin will be rebuilt from the ground up and redesigned to honor the spectacular views of neighboring Lake Coeur D'Alene.
