Custom Log Homes

Based on our experience, we recommend the beauty and energy efficiency of our premium Cedar Log Home Packages. Unlike pine logs often used in the Carolinas, our Cedar Log Home kit uses northern white Cedar, creating better insulation against heat and cold than any other commonly used wood. In addition, Cedar’s low moisture content protects your log home exterior from cracking, splitting, shrinkage, settling, air seepage, and rot after your home is built. This long-term stability allows our unique Energy Envelope System to meet or exceed energy efficiency requirements without sacrificing the whole log wall construction strength.

If you’re looking for a log home that is less rustic and more contemporary in design, we offer an incredible line of log houses from our manufacturer. Check out our gallery here.   Want to learn more about Cedar the smart choice
