Differences Between Log Homes
Originally, log homes were built as small, economical houses and most were temporary. Wood was the only house building resource available at the time that was plentiful. Now, small log homes are still built, but new trends of building large log homes has started. Many log homes are luxury homes that have multiple floors and large rooms. Most all log homes have a porch or deck and all other characteristics vary depending on the design you choose.
When building a log home, or having one built, choosing a design for the plan is the first step. Once that is done, the next important step is to select the type of wood and log design you will use. Narrow your search by finding out which wood types work well with your design and in your location. The season and the availability of woods will also help in determining your choice.
