From the National Park Gallery website in part:

"GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The overall integrity of the site with regard to location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association is excellent, with all of the buildings being nominated surviving today largely as they stood in their original relationship to one another during the period of significance c. 1770 - 1850.

Exceptions to this high degree of overall integrity relate to integrity of design and materials with regard to the log tenant house and the main dwelling. Specifically, an enclosed front porch has been added possibly in the 20th-century to the tenant house and a third story addition of undocumented appearance was made to the dwelling sometime after 1926 and removed shortly after 1943.

But according to a first-hand account of the main dwelling before this addition was made, it is known that the house had a steeply-pitched roof and dormer windows (see the historical narrative in the "Statement of Significance,". Presumably, the present roof and dormer configuration are similar, if not identical, to the original features."
