Log Cabin Resort

Europeans tend to build a log cabin for use in the garden and used as a summer house. However, log cabins are being built and used as home extensions more and more as a cheap alternative.

Log homes compliment a natural setting while boldly demonstrating a sense of taste and style.

Around the 1800’s small log cabins met the basic requirements of a home, and one could be constructed in as little as a few days using some very basic tools.

You will find that some small log cabins can be the same price as a small home in the suburbs.

It is interesting to note that currently, there are over 500,000 log homes in the U.S. This count accounts for 7% of the whole custom home building market in the U.S.

There are several variations of cabin types all over the United States. They differ from sizes, roof, number of storys, location of windows and doors.

Log houses are natural, eco-friendly, warm and healthy.

The best log cabins now have double glazing.

Interestingly, there is now a toy available in the market, called Lincoln Logs, which is fast becoming a favorite among the young. It is obviously named after Abraham Lincoln, who must be the most famous figurehead associated with log cabins.

Confident DIY enthusiasts and anyone involved in the construction industry can build and maintain their own log cabins quite easily.
