I saw this in a book, but of course I can't find any other info on it so this is all there is. Still, it's a great little project.
Many people want a summer kitchen at their cabin, usually because they do their cooking on a wood stove and who wants to fire that up inside the cabin in the middle of summer?
This bake house creates a beautiful summer kitchen in a small stand-alone building that keeps all your equipment out of the rain.

I planned on doing a park shelter design. I like mine to be a combination of L5 and L6 design. I like the L6, but want the open gable end, will probably use square timbers vs round logs just to speed things up. http://npshistory.com/publications/park_structures_facilities/secl.htm
Wifes entire side of the family are all stone masons and would love to have a large fireplace at one end with a flat surface for cooking and serving on. This is a not to distant future plan as fo right now.

Park shelter buildings are really nice. I would put the fireplace on the north wall in the center so that the east south and west sides are still open. It would also keep the chimney from coming up through a gable. You could keep the north facing openings on either side of the fireplace and maybe put in shelving or countertops on both sides too.
If you do put the chimney on the north side be sure to add a "chimney cricket" to the roof above the chimney so that rain and dead leaves don't pool against the stone.

Rockies, chimney will consume the entire end and come up on a gable end. It will be NW actually, I do plan on keeping all 3 remaining sides open, maybe a 3 foot high log rail with one end open (opposite of chimney) and 1 entrance on each side (long wall) and a long picnic table right in the middle of it. I will wire it for lighting, hide it all, so I can hook my little Honda to it and light it all up for family gatherings.
