This home took great liberties with the use of an abundance of fine antique hewn logs and timbers to create a spectacular, though not historic accurat, interior.

Here’s a great start towards having a dream cabin…
1) A timeless design
2) Vintage logs
3) A properly built stone chimney
4) Wood shake roof (anything but asphalt shingles)
5) Great location

There a special warmth to the soul that one gets when living in a home built of aged wood.
It cannot be reproduced with new lumber.
But, it can be achieved in building a new home by using salvaged materials.

There are many benefits of living in a cabin in the woods… one of them is Fall.

A log cabin is at it’s best when it used as one single room… a room with four log walls.
One of the many flaws in cabins using “log cabin kits” is that these cabins are divided up into various rooms each having a wall or two which is log.
I prefer either a small log cabin with a lean-to addition where the cabin serves as living space with a bedroom above it.
Or, a larger home that has one of more log additions off of it where these cabins serve as… living rooms, dens, bedrooms, or dining rooms.

Fall, has arrived.
It’s a great time of year.

A log cabin sure does blend into the environment, doesn’t it?

What is your opinion of the paint finish seen in this photo?
A) I love it just like it is
B) I’d put a fresh coat of paint on everything
C) I’d remove all the paint and have a clean natural wood finish.

Here’s proof that a brick chimney can look good on a log cabin… it’s tough to do, most that attempt it, fail.
It’s an unspoken rule that log cabins must have a stone chimney, I’ve never built anything but stone on the cabins that I have built, but here is a photo that shows there are no absolute rules with cabins.
