Passing our knowledge and skills on helping you to choose your Dream Home
The first thing any consultant of Log Cabins will tell you is that no two Log Cabin Kits are the same. Each manufacturer has its own kit packages and there are no industry standards defining what is included. From a consumer’s perspective, it can seem helpful to get materials lists and cost quotes from several manufacturers of Log Cabins to conduct price comparisons. Unfortunately, this ritual often makes the process more confusing as shoppers usually end up comparing apples to oranges. Additionally, it is difficult to put cost estimates on intangible value-adds such as service, support and experience.

Log Cabins
Manufactured Log Cabins are made from logs that are milled to uniformity. This means that all the logs are produced to the exact specification to meet a specific purpose. Milled logs often require less “special attention” to fit into place and this usually means there is less labour involved in assembling manufactured log homes. This translates to lower labour costs (particularly when you add in the costs associated with having a master craftsman hand cut each log).
Hand cut Log Cabins do offer a unique and distinctive appearance compared to milled logs, but a few Log Cabin manufacturers, like Luxury Log Houses, can custom treat their milled logs with a hand-hewn finish to produce the rough-cut look of hand-hewn logs while still delivering standard sized logs that will help reduce the need for chinking.
A Log Home (or Log House) is technically the same thing as a Log Cabin, a house typically made from logs that have not been milled into conventional lumber. The term Log Home / Log House is contemporary and preferred by most log home builders, while Log Cabin indicates a smaller, more rustic, such as a hunting cabin in the woods.
There are two kinds of Log Cabins
- "handcrafted": handcrafted log cabins are typically made of logs that have been peeled but are otherwise essentially unchanged from their original natural appearance when they were trees.
- "milled" (also called "machine-profiled"), made with a log house moulder: a milled or machine-profiled log home is one constructed of logs that have run through a manufacturing process which convert them into timbers that are consistent in size and appearance.
Handcrafted Log Cabins have been built for centuries in Scandinavia, [1] Russia[2] and Eastern Europe. These were typically built using only an axe and knife.[3] The Scandinavian settlers of New Sweden brought the craft to North America in the early 1700s, where it was quickly adopted by other colonists and Native Americans.[4] Possibly the oldest surviving Log Cabin in the United States is the C. A. Nothnagle Log House (ca. 1640) in New Jersey.
In the 1920s, the first milled Log Cabins appeared on the market, using logs that were pre cut and shaped, rather than hand-hewn. Many Log Cabins today are of milled variety mostly because they require less labour intensive field work than with handcrafted. There are perhaps 500 companies in North America that build the handcrafted, scribe-fit, style of Log Cabin.
Manufactured Log Cabins
An Economical and Convenient Alternative to Hand Cut Logs
There is much debate in the Log Cabin community about the differences between manufactured (or milled) logs and hand cut (hewn) logs. Many traditional Log Cabin enthusiasts believe that the use of milled logs to build a log home constitutes nothing short of a mortal sin. On the other hand, more progressive Log Cabin enthusiasts believe that manufactured Log Cabins are every bit as wonderful as their hand-cut brethren. There are features and benefit unique to both methods of Log Cabin construction. Clicking on any of the Log Cabin packages below will take you to that plan's page.

Bigger is Not Necessarily Better
Not everyone wants or can afford one of the luxury 4000 square foot masterpieces that you usually find adorning the pages of the popular Log Cabin magazines. While owning one of those works of art would be nice, there is definitely an upside to building something that is more practical and modest; particularly if you do not have the need or budget for such a monumental undertaking.
If warm and cosy is okay with you (and you do not need to have that “Wow, this is incredible” perception), then you are in the right place. We’ve assembled a wide selection of Log Cabin plans and Log Camp plans ranging from 138 square feet to 575 square feet of living space. These Log Cabins / Log Camps are ideal for anyone who wants the occasional respite of Log Cabin life without having to take out a second mortgage.
The Camper to Cabin Transition
These smaller plans are ideally suited for hunting or fishing Log Cabins, weekend camps or even week-long retreats. With package prices starting at $10,000, they are also affordable. For outdoors enthusiasts who enjoy camping and communing with nature, these Log Cabin / Log Camp packages can be a good alternative to a camper or RV with one major advantage: a Log Cabin will appreciate in value over time.
So, if the summertime thrill of packing up your camper, hauling it, setting it up, breaking it down and hauling it back is losing its appeal, now is the time to consider investing in a permanent Log Cabin that can provide year-round enjoyment! Imagine having all of the modern conveniences of a fully-appointed camper / RV (and then some) without all the hassles.
Log Cabin Plans
Selecting a set of Log Cabin plans can be a very time intensive task. Most people who are in the early phases of planning their Log Cabin project spend countless hours pouring over hundreds, if not thousands, of predesigned plans of Log Cabins hoping to find the one that is just right for them. Too frequently, prospective Log Cabin buyers/builders waste precious time and resources looking at photos and plans of picturesque million dollar log retreats while they only have a £100,000 budget. This approach is often discouraging and can lead to unrealistic expectations. Clicking on any of the Log Cabin images below will take you to that plan's pdf.
